This is my blog thingie. I hang out. Reblog a ton of gaming and comic related stuff. Sometimes, I'll go Ask crazy (Curious mind and all that). Enjoy sweets and baked goods (in case ever want to send something!) and stop by and say hello!

In 2015, Nintendo collaborated with a number of restaurants in Japan to offer a variety of Mario-themed dishes for a limited time for the Super Mario Bros. 30th Anniversary celebration. One of them was this “Piranha Plant Soda” using a strawberry decorated like a Piranha Plant, exclusive to the Tower Records café in Shibuya, Tokyo.

Top: in 2014, a commercial for a special collection of New Nintendo 3DS cover plates featuring Japanese singer Kyary Pamyu Pamyu was released in Japan. This commercial is mostly known for featuring various Nintendo characters wearing original clothing designs (based on the cover plates being advertised), including a Mario outfit that later appeared in Super Mario Odyssey as the “Fashionable Outfit”.

Bottom: at one point in the commercial, a pink Bullet Bill with eyelashes appears briefly. It never received its own official artwork, unlike some of the other variant designs from the commercial. The Art of Super Mario Odyssey book provides a unique standalone image of this design, in a section about the inspiration behind the Fashionable Outfit.
