This has been brought to my attention before, and the similarities startled me. But somehow I don't this is what the American game-producers were aiming for! :wink:

Good job with the pictures.

Mario was designed by a company. A private enterprise. How could it be communist. Plus Mario collects coins.

As for his face, the moustache (and sideburns) were the only way to separate his facial features on the low-resolution displays of the arcade machines.

Then why does he run around collecting coins? I know he's been keeping them for himself.

Also, why would he be trying to rescue the princess, instead of leaving her in Bowser's hands so he could set up a dictatorship of the proletariat?

Ah, but that's the beautiful irony of it.

Wow, beaten out by four people.

yes. nintendo is a japanese based company isnt it? and japan was strongly influenced by communist china at the time of its creation.
or maybe my years are off.
and as for his overals, in the original they are greenish and they turn white once he gets the flower.

you know nothing of history do you?

I've seen that several times before, there's various websites around about it.

Superman is a Communist too.

He wears red, his nickname is "The Man of Steel" and he has a big S for Stalin on his chest. He flies around to save ordinary "proletariats".

Yes! And his brother Luigi is working with the Green party, he's tall and skinny like Nader. And that mushroom dude, he represents the psychadelic mushroom, which we all know that when consumed causes hallucinations. And Princess Peach represents the feminist movement, because she kicks ass. And Yoshi represents public transportation, which all the liberals love so much. And Bowser represents the power hungry (and sneaky, becasue you have to beat 8 levels to finally get at the bastard) capitalists who snatch up all the women and drugs for themselves.

yeah I've thought about this alot

It can also be argued that since Stalin and Hussein had large prominent mustaches, any mustachioed man is therefore evil, and a dictator. You small mustaches guyes aren't safe either; find a picture of hitler. Since there can't possibly be that many henchmen in the world, it can't a conclusive argument, and therefore may only be deemed circumstantial evidence.

So does Luigi only wearing green indicate he is a hippie? Well, that's proof of communisim as far as I'm concerned (joke).

The collection of coins seems to be a very capitalistic endeavor, don't you think? Also, he is off to free the Princess Toadstool, a member of the bourgeoise elite (is there a princess who isn't?), instead of the working class.

"We must protect the animals of the working class from the Capatilist scum of the greedy Bowser!"

the communists are making fun of capitolism by making him only work towards geting the coins.

Superman is a Communist too.

Actually he's a Nazi, and he's supposed to represent the master race.

How do you mean?

BEST.TOPIC.THIS.NIGHT.

If there's a secret subtext to that game, it's probably drugs, not communism. Aside from the surrealness of the world (the smiley-face clouds, the question boxes all over the place), there's a very strong mushroom theme going on. And Mario gets magic powers from mushrooms, flowers, and leaves.

I'm not saying that's what they had in mind, but I think there's a stronger case for that than communism.

Well he's a nazi-Stalinist then, (I know they hated each other). There are just too many ties to Stalin.

Why else would they make a game that one must kill animals and overcome obstacles for the sole purpose of money? That whole princess thing is just a coverup.

Mario's a dweeb. I can't stand that music, either. If not the communists, someone was intent on driving us all crazy with the tunes. Sonic the Hedgehog is a billion times kooler. 8)

or maybe my years are off.
and as for his overals, in the original they are greenish and they turn white once he gets the flower.When he get a flower the overalls become red you dullard. And the shirt becomes white.

w/e. the point is, no more blue/green or w/e color it is.

Mario, and all other Japanese game charactors, are trying to convert the world's masses into the Japanese culture of extreme wierdness. They disguise themselves as games, but when they make 40000000 versions of the game *glares at Final Fantasy*, you start gettin brainwashed, having seen it so often.

FYI, i am slightly color blind. i have a hard time distinguishing between green and blue.

i think it was decided that luigi was made to represent the independant/hippy parties of the world. with the tall and lanky and the green.

And Mario gets magic powers from mushrooms, flowers, and leaves.

Not to mention feathers, raccoon suits, hammers, stars, and just about anything you would pick up off the ground.

When leaves were mentioned, I thought of the third Mario game on the NES, so I felt I had to add something.
