Let me just start off by saying that without Mario... there'd be no Nintendo as we know it today. Mario introduced me to what Nintendo was all about and I liked it. So I don't think I'd know Nintendo for what it is had it not been for games like Super Mario Bros. 3 and Super Mario 64. Nintendo just wouldn't be the same without him or whatsiz face... green... looks like Mario... has this year dedicated to him... . I have no idea.
