"You're princess is in another castle!" isn't creative after the 50th time. Yeah I know all Mario games don't have that finding your princess thing or w.e but seriously come on. When are they gonna let Mario go. Theres been like over 200 games with him making appearances in them. 

What are you talking about? That's like suggesting that Disney should "let Mickey Mouse go" because he's appeared in so many cartoons. Maybe the Philadelphia Phillies should "let the Phanatic go" because he's appeared at thousands of Phillies games.

Are you comparing a sport mascots appearance in a sporting event in order to boost up the hype of the crowd to mario appearing in numerous video games?

Yes. Mario is Nintendo's mascot. He is more recognizable throughout the world than Mickey Mouse, and his games still push higher sales than anything else. Suggesting that Nintendo should drop him just because you're tired of seeing him is ludicrous.
