"Mario" Fact

Pages: (1/9) > >>

FrizzleFried:

It is common to see people claim that "Mario" was named "Jumpman" until Donkey Kong Jr. came out when they named him "Mario"...right?   At least that is the story I have read over and over again at various websites (though I have seen others call him Mario?)

Anyway,  here is a flyer from 1981 that distinctly calls him "Mario" the carpenter...before DK Jr.

OK.... Here's a challenge for you then.... When did they decide that he was a plumber and not a carpenter.
