Mario is one of those rare characters that can somehow endorse and sell any kind of product. From Mario pinball machines to Mario shoelace holders, there is something about that round faced plumber that just lends itself to commercialism! So what do we have here?

How many times have you caught yourself sneezing only to think “surely this could have been Mario-fied a little more?” or perhaps you have blown your nose on a regular styled tissue and thought to yourself “sure it was ok, but where is the excitement?”…well fear no more, your prayers have been answered! Thanks to my good friends Kallen and Lissy I am now the proud owner of some Mario Tissues! This 6 pack of Mario Madness was found in Fukuoka Japan and has traveled all the way back to Melbourne Victoria.

Thanks to my good friends Kallen and Lissy my birthday was a lot mintier than usual 😀 I have never seen these before so I thought I would take a few snaps for everyone to see these awesome DS mints!

My DS Next to the packet of mints:

The mints themselves are white un-marked pills that look suspiciously like narcotics, however the effects are minty fresh:

Mario enjoying some of his own product:

Here at Mario Mayhem whilst we love Mario we don’t like to discriminate! Jon has been busy creating 2d pieces of joy and has sent us in pictures of some new Video Game Magnets he has created!

Enjoy these Megaman, Link and Sonic magnets!

Well as promised, we have a bit of information regarding our latest fan art submission! Jon writes about how he created these awesome pieces of Mario Fan art:

They were really simple to make! They are constructed out of Perler
Beads bought at any hobby shop or craft store. Just simply find a game
sprite pattern of any video game character you wish and merely match
the colors with beads and iron! Place sticky side magnets (also bought
at hobby stores) and bammo Mario magnets!

Jon says he is also making plans to create some Mega Man and Zelda magnets as well, so we will have to keep an eye out for them!

Get those creative brains to work people, we need more Game magnets!

This is one of the coolest cake’s I’ve seen I think! It’s a rather large version of the old Nintendo Entertainment System in cake form. What more could someone want on that special day? Well a beautiful bride would be nice, but a giant NES cake? One day Timby…one day.

The third image is actually a different cake of just the controller, but I wanted to include it anyway since it’s pretty cool too 😀

It seems some plumbing business on 87th St. at 18th Ave., Bensonhurst, Brooklyn, has been banking on the success of Mario to promote their business! Not sure about the colours on Luigi or why Mario is walking towards a fire…but it’s still pretty cool!

Thanks to Metal Man for pointing it out to me, and here is the Source

What can I say about this awesome piece of art work! It’s amazing what you can do with an idea, some cardboard, fun foam, glue and craftyness.

A regular cartridge was too small a base, so I measured one and made a 1.5 scale replica out of cardboard, and screwed the gun to it. I weighted it with stones, and then tackled the shade.

I picked up a $2 shade at the re-store, a pack of fun foam, and voila! After hours and hours of cutting pixellated shapes, I was done! A little dab of glue to secure the shade, and… ta dah!

Since the creator posted the images this lamp has become quite famous and it has even been featured in Nintendo power magazine 😀 This should inspire all you Nintendo fans to get out your sewing kits.

This cake is amazing, I wish I had some close up pictures of it! The decorator has recreated some classic scenes from SMB 1, complete with under water cheep cheeps and bloopers!

It’s been a while since we have indulged our sweet tooth so here is another awesome Super Mario Cake 😀
