Flying Mario!



Prosodi decided to grace us with a flying squirrel suited Mario. At least I think it's a squirrel. Raccoon? I'm sorry, I only played Mario up until the first Super Mario Bros! Somebody help!

  1. If you haven't played enough Mario to experience the Tanuki suit, you are missing out man!

  2. Lol, yeah, I haven't played a game featuring Mario in years. I really need to get back into it, don't I? Of course, I was always more of a Luigi fan......

  3. Isn't it supposed to be like a tanooki or something, which as far as I understand it is a Japanese type of squirrelly thing with really big...nuts.

    Ah okay Wikipedia spells it "tanuki," says it's actually a "raccoon dog," and that one of their eight traditionally depicted traits is "over-sized testicles that symbolize financial luck."

    $$!

  4. So in the game, does Mario hit those the turtle bad guys with his giant gonards? Sorry, I'm not up to speed on my Mario universe....
