Mario's Late For Something In Tokyo
Everyone loves Mario. There's a reason why he's among the most iconic characters in video games. But how would he fair in the real world?
Done by visual effects artist Dean Wright, this video has us meet Mario as he's buying plumbing equipment. Before he can make any decisions, however, our favorite plumber realizes he's late for something. Check out the video below to see for yourself what's got him running and jumping through Tokyo.
The video plays out like a really cool Super Smash Bros. advertisement, one that we wouldn't mind seeing a TV spot for. Though it's fan-made, Nintendo has shown that they aren't above making ads from popular media.
I’d like to ask you to support Game Informer’s continued coverage of games with a subscription. For less than two dollars per issue, we mail you a full year of 10 print magazines, each with cover stories and preview features filled with exclusive details about the most exciting upcoming games. We profile and interview game creators. We look back on the rich history of gaming, and we celebrate what’s next.
Here on the website, we offer much of our content for free, including game reviews, daily news, videos, event coverage, and more – all with minimal ads.
We do so with a small editorial team, alongside contributing paid writers from around the world – over 65 individuals from 9 countries around the world, just in the last couple of years.
It’s not possible without support.
In a time when game makers and games coverage have faced hard struggles and layoffs, the future of this 30+ year magazine and community is at risk. Our new standalone magazine subscription is the number one way you can keep us alive – and we believe you’ll get a pretty fantastic gaming magazine in your mailbox every few weeks for your trouble.
Thank you.
