Super Mario in Little Big Planet

Little Big Planet is a PS3 game that allows you to make your own levels. As you can see, this guy made a pretty good Super Mario level.

Super Mario Physics

Here is a scholarly study of the physics in Super Mario games. The main conclusion is that, while gravity is getting closer to realistic values in newer games, in most games Super Mario would lose consciousness due to the acceleration forces to which he is subject.

Super Obama World

I like this Super Mario parody: Super Obama World!
There is also a related YouTube parody:

40 video covers of the Super Mario theme.

This site has collected 40 covers of the Super Mario theme. This example on a church organ is by no means the weirdest one in the collection.

Super Mario Rescues The Princess

A new Super Mario cartoon...brought to you by Burger King! It was made by Seth MacFarlane, who animates 'Family Guy'. There will be new episodes in this series every week, but they aren't all about Super Mario. The line between entertainment and advertising blurs again... [I wonder if I can get Burger King to pay me for those two links I just made to them....I wanna cash in too!]

Who knew? The Secret Life of Evil Mario

"Mary~Oh Antonio von Mario Bros(b. 17 November 1981 in Rome d. 1 December 2020 in Madrid) is a general for Nintendo, generally credited for founding the Q'in Dynasty and Dunkin' Donuts. He has starred in many unsuccessful video games and a critically acclaimed movie, and currently lives in the Mushroom Kingdom (or Brooklyn). [...]
Contrary to popular belief, Mario is NOT a lovable video game character, but is instead a solid, trustworthy communist of the current Soviet Union. (For more information on this, and see the Communist in action go to http://terminal71.com/flash/mario.php) There are several factors that quite clearly suggest Mario's affiliation with the commies. First off, he bears a remarkable resemblance to a certain righteous man, Josef Stalin. Second, he wears red overalls, the signature color of communism. Third, he spends his life going around invading settlements by innocent Goombas, and overthrowing the local governors, known as "Bowsers". And finally, the clearest reference to communism is the flag that Mario raises every time he defeats a "boss". At first glance, the flag seems to be nothing more than a mushroom. Look again. The emblem on the flag is none other than the great Hammer and Sickle. Hail comrade Mario!"

More shocking revelations here. (Content warning: Some material and language may offend. The truth is not easy.)
