In the Mushroom Kingdom, life for Mario is pretty damn sweet – jumping on Koopa Troopas to send their shells flying, scoffing down power stars like pingers and occasionally slipping into a stylish AF Tanooki Suit for some light plushie action.
In the real world, however, things are considerably less fun for our old plumbing mate.
In the below video, the latest from Australian-based gaming comedy website Insert Coin, Mario walks the streets swinging his useless raccoon tail, and kicking around a sad green helmet in place of a turtle shell.
The concept of slipping down IRL pipes is too gross to even get into. Enjoy having your fond Mario memories sullied:
