Celebrate Mario's 25th Anniversary In Style

Everyone's favorite goomba-stomping plumber turned 25 today, and Nintendo is asking fans around the world to help celebrate the occasion on Twitter.

Today Nintendo of America updated its profile picture on Twitter with the Mario 25th Anniversary crest you see above, and the company is encouraging fans to do the same. After 25 years of continually saving a princess who may or may not be suffering from Stockholm syndrome (how else is a princess going to get kidnapped so easily?), we figure it's the least gamers could do to show their support for Mario. So save a copy of the picture above or grab the original from Nintendo, and start updating your profiles!
