We've written a hell of a lot of features about Mario over the years. A hell of a lot. Some of them have been reverent, some of them have been subversive, and some of them have been flat-out weird. All of them though, have been brilliant, in their own speciﷺal little ways. If I sound like a proud parent saying nice things to each of his variously odd kids, that's because a week like Super Mario Week, packed as it has been with new Mario features, gets you nostalgic for all the old ones. So I've put together this compendium page detailing and linking back to all of our best ones since 2007.

Have a plough through. See if you missed any. And if you're new to the site, hoover up the lot of them. It'll be a bulky meal, and it might make you feel a bit sick at times, but I assure you it will be🐎 ultimately both nourishing and rewarding.

澳洲幸运5开奖号码历史查询:The many faces of Mario
Mario hasn't always looked like he does now. In fact at times his design has been flat-out weird. In fact, at times he's alternately looked like James Bond, a mul🧸leted Spanish superhero on an acid hallucination, and a real guy in dungarees and a 𝓰baseball cap. And far weirder. We have proof.
