This Is Why Nintendo Strikes Me Down - Tumblr Posts

Been seeing a lot of posts on here since the TTYD remake came out about how Mario accepts Vivian, not because he knows what trans means but because he just is a good guy.

All I’m saying is that in this era Mario is the new Jesus we need, without all the religious drama.

Mario accepts all who have a good heart and gives those who have wronged him second chances.

They are both from the Mediterranean region. And they are both depicted as white!

When Mario collects the mini mushroom, he gains the ability to walk on water. This is in fact a subtle reference to the time Jesus did a similar thing.

They are both circumcised. (Trust me on this one).

They both work trade jobs. Mario is a plumber, while Jesus was a carpenter.

In Super Paper Mario, Mario dies and goes to hell, and proceeds to rise again, as well as go to heaven.
