Let us take a moment to bash our skulls in with our controllers. Is this some kind of stupid joke. I checked this out in the game and oh its there all right. This kind of thing is inexcusable. Shame on you! Arrrgh!

This ruins the entire reason Zelda is so good, it has no connection whatsoever with that drat plumber and his madcap pals. But this? Why? The Video Gamer X is really insulted by this, but I suppose I can live with it. Really, it's just Mario.

Video Gamer X adds: Mario does not belong in Zelda. They are two different gaming genres. A guy that looks like a Goomba is tolerable, but having their likenesses plastered on the wall of the regal Hyrule Castle is wrong. I don't think a girl like Zelda would be thinking about a little fat plumber man and his buddies at time of Hyrule's greatest conflict. She's more of the How-Can-I-Save-My -Kingdom-From-Utter-Annihilation-By-An-Evil-Force kind of girl. Indeed I do admit if it wasn't for the pesky plumber we wouldn't be playing Zelda today. That game and character have made Nintendo the gaming giant it is today. I'll bet the marketing geniuses at Nintendo HQ pressured Miyamoto into adding this little gimmick to promote their midas touched character.

Maim376496@aol.com enlightens us: I don't know...... I liked it. I mean, what's a game if there's no surprise unrelated to the game. Mabey Zelda saw this in one of those predicting dreams of hers and had a painter paint a picture of what she saw.

Video Gamer X put in: Theoretically speaking it just might happen... An anti-time causality loop ruptured the space-time continuum between gaming universes and directly influenced Zelda during a REM hypnogogic state to invision the spirited likenesses of a short fat man in red and blue suspenders, a taller green fat man with with a wierd mustache, and an odd green Dinosaur thing. Using her telepathic powers she contacted these ephemeral beings across the void between dimensions and beseeched their allowance to depict their greatness upon the castle wall. Low an behold the dastarly Bowser tried to sever the mind-link and used the Orb of 'Shroom to seal the temporal rupture. But, just then the Orb of 'Shroom was stolen by his lizardly kid Iggy and absconded to the wasteland world of Iggy World where he pointed the Orb of Shroom at the ill fated world of Wendy World and sent it to a strange alternate timeline of Super Mario Brothers 3. Meanwhile Mario and Luigi ate pasta, and ate, and ate, and ate, and ate... Zelda was so facinated by his mystical powers to consume mass quanitites that she ordered the Royal artist to emblazon the corridors of Hyrule Castle with this omniscent being. Oddly enough, this Green Dinosaur thing called a Yoshi came and ate the entire sub space world of Super Mario Bros. 2 and thus deteriorated the temporal disturbance and severed Zelda's visions. Ever since that hallowed day, Zelda stares wistfully at the likenesses of the great ones who had expressed the secrets of infinite linguine consumption to her. This all could have been averted if Old Captain Picard in one of the timeframes collaborated with Luke Skywalker to use the force to strenthen the inverse tachyon beam. Put that in your pipe, and smoke it, bub.

Mario is part of the reason N64 got a whipping from the PSX. Sony labled Mario as something your little brother would play with, and Crash Bandicoot as something for the big boys. Nobody wants to be like their little brother, so they all wet and bought the PlayStation Extreem (That was the original name, hence the X in PSX) Now, thanks to Zelda 64, the "Game of the Century" Next Generation mag. N64 is back in the running against the PSX.

Video Gamer X posted:

You know, I used to collect and read comic books when I was younger, and once they started getting inundated with crossovers, I stopped reading them because all my favorite heros were mixed up and in different timelines or other universes and it became too confusing to follow the story. Although this Mario in Zelda incident is rather small, I know that there is a game in production that is going to combine various Nintendo characters including Link and Ganondorf and others. Its going to be some kind of fighting game from what I've read. I call it a big mistake, because it is just wrong to rip-off a character and put him into another Video Game genre. Games with combined or crossed-over characters are designed with the sole intent of suppling the company with extra profits. The Comic Book companies tried this, and didn't fare too well, and if Video Game companies follow suit the whole uniqueness of Zelda, Hyrule, and the sovereignty of the adventure could vanish.

If it wasn't for the fact that irony wasn't invented until 2004 I would have a hard time believing this person was real.
