:whistle:

Please tell me that's not Ron Jeremy in a Mario suit. Even if it is, just tell me it's not, or I'll never look at that game the same way again.

loooool

The funnies thing i've seen today! LOL

Nop, mario's games will never be the same after that picture... :D

This is Mario's BIG BIG BIG Brother! LOL LOL LOL

LOL oh man what a picture.

Anubis, is that you posing for playgirl? :roflol:











:ph34r:

OMFG :)) :)) that's hilarious, if not a little scarey.

btw, speaking of ideologies, someone just told me

paraphrasing here

"Ho Chi Min was not a communist. He only portrayed communism. FDR [acording to this fellow] wouldn't help him oust France colonialism which prompted him to go with China and Russia". Can anyone verify this statement for me? I've been trying to get a grip on the Vietnam war over the last few years, can anyone here sum it up for me? thanx.

:roflol: :D

So that's what Mario does after plumbing...

... he's not wearing a tie ...

No, that's why they call him a plumber...
You ever see him un-plug a toilet?

now I wonder where he shoots those fireballs from...

There was this article in the finnish computer game magazine. It told that Mario was a communist.

I was shocked!

After that,i saw the cover of the Super Communist Bros.(From the communists series)

I better shoot that quy who wrote the article :sniper:

heh. explains why i hate monarchy and found it hard to belive how evil stalin was, dam u mario!!!

How about this one?

As I said on another site:

He forgot one very important argument:

Link means nazi overlord in Swahili (might be wrong).

(yes, I did think I was very witty and funny there, even if noone else did).

What next?
Pikachu means pervert????

Yep!
You don't know that? :blink:

pikachu is always staring up at that guys groin

No, that's why they call him a plumber...
You ever see him un-plug a toilet? [/b][/quote]
I've seen him fix the plumbing. Does any one else remember the cartoon? It had the beginning and the ending with actors (the cartoon was in between). They actaully were un-pluging thing from time to time!

Well I stand corrected ;)

Super Mario Brothers...unplugged. Scary

I don't really see why Nintendo would support communism AND german fascism. But now I realize why I've become a socialist; I played Super Mario on my friend's Super Nintendo :D.

I think the whole thing is retarded.

I really don't think there was too much thought put into the stories behind these games, at least not enough to make them allegorical. I think the story-creating process went more along the lines of "uhh...let's have an elf. But no, not tolkien's elf. Our elf rules high. Hyrule......Goddammit, let's just have him kill some bastards for some stupid tri-force or something!"

Anaylise anything like this for too long and you're bound to come up with an allegory. That's why allegories suck.

Don't know if you read the article but there's a distinct air of tongue-in-cheekness about it. It feels like an idea someone had when stoned, then realised there were actually a lot of things that fitted it.

You can make sense of anything when you're stoned.

:)
good one :))

everyone else quoted it, i may as well fall in line :tai:

amusing as this article may be, it's just another guy with too much time on his hands, he's taken an innocent and loved video game character and turned it into something it isn't... meh

i like things made in the 80's that aren't "PC" in this decade, like the tv show 'Monkey' and their overuse of the word 'poofter'

Another Nintendo thingie:Donkey Kong has a big banana......

Fine article. I payed attention to the red star above the castle too, that appears when you finish level. Interesting article again. :ok:
