Ain't he a doctor an the rest are just his hobbies? A lot of doctors play golf or tennis.

A careless doctor at that, his solution is to just keep popping pills until the virus is gone!

A great doctor according to the pharma industry.

He wears a blue overall.



If you demand respect or gratitude for your volunteer work, you're doing volunteering wrong.

Updates to the Mario canon? Nintendo surely wouldn't do that without a reason ... his old reputation/job description wasn't hampering anything in any of the games. Maybe this has something to do with Odyssey ...

Or Nintendo is just doing some long overdue spring cleaning of their franchises

Mario doing something different in Odyssey would explain an official canon change.

Yeah it just seems weird, or rather out of place to me, for Nintendo to change the Mario canon at all!

Yeah, I remember that! Pretty interesting, though I guess he can find coins everywhere and he's buddy buddy with the princess, so he doesn't really need a job.

In Odyssey he is a Bond villain throwing his deadly hat at enemies:

 



Then why keep the green pipes?



He's a real Renaissance man... If there's a problem of any kind he's the one to call :D
