Damn, Mario has really been whored out over the years. And people say Activision Blizzard make a lot of sequels. Guess we know who they learned it from.
Cultural Blips:

• Mario family tree of super mushroom-sized proportions. Mario has been in a lot of games. Really. Just look. [Limit Break]
• Cue Game Over ditty: Mario’s croaking. You can’t always expect Nintendo’s portly plumber to win. This illustration proves it. [Offworld]
• These Street Fighter 4 kicks could potentially kick literal ass. Check out these Street Fighter 4-inspired Nike sneakers shoe customizer Daniel Reese made. Note: Shouting “Tatsumaki-Senp? Kyaku” while wearing these will only make you look like an idiot. [GameSetWatch]
• NES papercraft requires no hardcore blowing. If you want to make your own Nintendo Entertainment System out of paper, go right on ahead. Tree-killer. [Offworld]
