Mario (The Game Characters Movie)

Mario is a twenty-four or twenty-five year old[7] Italian[4] human. Mario has fair skin, short and stocky and medium portly. He has bright blue eyes, big nose and a thick dark-brown mustache with six bumps. Mario has short brown hair with two sideburns, three large bangs pointing upwards, four short bangs point upward the back of his neck and a sprout-shaped cowlick.

He wears a red shirt and blue overalls with yellow buttons. He has a red hat that has the "M" symbol for his name and wears white gloves and brown shoes with tan soles.

Mario is a simple character without a solid personality since he was meant for players to integrate their own personality into his character. When Mario expresses his demeanor, Mario is aggressive and impulsive, sometimes going head-on into things without much meditation.

Despite these potential flaws, he is a brave, just, moral, righteous, and kind-hearted hero with a strong sense of justice, morality, and righteousness. He acts as a leader and puts, more often than not, other people's needs before his own. Mario is ready to help a friend and take on a new challenge.[8] Mario also enjoys accompanying allies in his adventures. He accompanied Luigi as seen in *Mario & Luigi* series. He also joined Yoshi when he accompanied him since when he was a baby. Mario is also shown to be polite and smart, even acting like a gentleman.

Although Mario is a good-natured person, he does not enjoy losing in spin-off games. This is shown in Luigi's ending in *Mario Power Tennis*; he congratulates his brother, but steps on Luigi's foot.

Nintendo was once business rivals with Sega; this rivalry peaked during the 16-bit era (the era of the Super Nintendo and Sega Genesis). As such, Nintendo and Sega often attempted to put each other down through their games. Examples include Sonic's appearance in *Donkey Kong Country 2*, to the left, and the blue hedgehog enemies of *Super Mario World 2: Yoshi's Island* called "Harry Hedgehog". In the Sonic children's book, *Secret Admirer*, there is a sign outside Robotropolis that reads "No Nintendo Game Playing".

In a commercial for the original *Sonic the Hedgehog* game, Bernita Stokes, President of H.A.G. (Humans Against Genesis), criticizes the game by saying, "Why can't he be more like that nice boy Mario?" while an animated Sonic is seen on the cover of the box mimicking her (probably hinting that Sonic always had some resentment towards Mario). Sonic then blows her a raspberry and runs out of the box and into the TV screen which makes her angry, calling him a little brat.

Another commercial for the same game features a salesman at a video game store, trying to sell the then-newly released Super Nintendo Entertainment System with the *Super Mario World* video game to a customer at its launch price of $199.95. The game is shown alongside a Sega Genesis playing *Sonic the Hedgehog*, being sold for $149.99. The speedy action of *Sonic the Hedgehog*, as well as Sega Genesis' lower price grab the customer's attention, and the customer decides to buy the Genesis and *Sonic the Hedgehog* game, disappointing the salesman, who desperately wanted him to buy the Super Nintendo and the *Super Mario World* game instead. However, starting by 2008, with Mario and Sonic appearing together in *Super Smash Bros. Brawl* and the beginning of the *Mario & Sonic* series, just like Sega's relationship with Nintendo improved, Mario and Sonic became friends.
