Super Mario celebrated its 40th birthday this year, after being created by Shigeru Miyamoto all those years ago in Japan. For decades, Mario has been the trailblazer in the world of video games, and it’s seen centuries of 2D, 3D, and now new evolutions of technology. One thing that’s stayed constant throughout all these years of change, is the quirky character in which Mario is, which is – an Italian-American plumber who lives with his brother, Luigi. Through Wii, Nintendo, GameCube and any other consoles we’ve had our hands-on, Mario has emblazoned the screens for people everywhere. Generations know and love him, and his kingdom has grown at a rapid speed.
