Popular Japanese boy band Arashi are featured in this new commercial for the upcoming Mario Kart 7 game to be released on the Nintendo 3D. Its quite hilarious to see Ninomiya dressed up as Mario just like what he did for the earlier Super Mario 3D Land CM-.

Anyway, the game is expected to be release on 1 Dec 2011 for Japan, 2 Dec for EU and 4 Dec for US.

What is your first reaction if you actually saw a giant green pipe sticking out in the middle of the road?

Arashi member Ninomiya Kazunari decided to go down the pipe just like Super Mario, and he soon finds himself having a great time in this commercial for Super Mario 3D Land (スーパーマリオ3Dランド), a game due for release in Nov for the Nintendo 3DS.

I thought it was quite rather funny to see him dressed up as Mario ^^

Heels Fit for Princess Peach

Glass slippers might be a perfect fit for Cinderella, but I’m sure this pair of high heels would be fitting for Princess Peach, the damsel in distress in Super Mario Bros. (スーパーマリオブラザーズ).

This interesting pair of high heels were created by Magicbeanbuyer and it features all the iconic features of Super Mario Bros. (スーパーマリオブラザーズ) right down to the special bricks marked with a question mark (“?”) and the cute Goomba. So anyone planning to get a pair for their beloved girlfriend or wife?

Illustrator Hunman 360 thought that if it was possible for Metal Gear to do a crossover with Monster Hunter, then why not Super Mario Bros too?

Super Mario Stop Motion

Instead of attending extra-curricular activities, some Japanese school kids have too much time on their hands so they created this interesting stop motion video of Super Mario in their classroom and moving onto other rooms.

However I’m wondering why doesn’t Mario collects the power-up mushrooms?

Nozomi Ohashi [大橋のぞみ] is quite the busy little girl nowadays appearing in many advertising after singing the popular popular theme song for Hayao Miyazaki’s animated film “Ponyo on the Cliff by the Sea”. The last we saw her, she was singing and dancing with potato chips, and now she is enjoying herself with some Mario action on the Nintendo Wii.
