    41. Daisy is not Peach's sister.
    42. Luigi is in love with Daisy and she with him.

    Okay, so I don't know that much about Mario. Sue me.

    43. Mario appears in more games than any other video game character.
    44. Luigi was originally created to have co-op play on the original Mario Bros.

    45 - Despite Mario being generally a console/handheld exclusive to Nintendo systems, Mario has been in PC games such as Mario's Typing during the 80s/90s and other educational games such as Mario is Missing (the first game to have Bowser kidnap Mario and have Luigi in the lead role) and Mario's Time Machine.

    46. Bowser turned the people of the Mushroom Kingdom for bricks, yet, not only does Mario senselessly destroy those bricks, presumably killing the people; he is also awarded 50 points for each block that he breaks.

    47. Thr first game that had a flight powerup was 'Super Mario Bros. Special', by Hudson, not SMB3.

    48. SMB Special was exclusive to computers in Japan, and was never ported (officially) to any Nintendo console.

    49. In the Japan-exclusive 'Super Mario Brow. 2', you are awarded a star on the title screen every time that you beat the game, and you need to collect these stars to unlock bonus levels.

    50. The 'minus world' glitch has more than one stage uf you play the FDS version of SMB, and it is not endless. (10% point now.)

    51 - Mario got an anime (Japan exclusive) in 1986 titled Super Mario Bros: Peach-Hime Kyushutsu Dai Sakusen! which translates to The Great Mission to Rescue Princess Peach!. It predates the live action Super Mario Bros movie by 7 years.
    52 - The plot centers on Mario playing on the computer when Peach jumps out, followed by Bowser's minions (Goombas, Koopa Troopas, Lakitu, and Hammer Bros), followed by Bowser himself after Mario defeats them. Peach leaves a necklace behind. Because why not?
    53- Luigi wears blur overalls and hat with a yellow shirt in this movie. Because raisins.
    54 - Mario and Luigi also work at a grochery store for some reason.
    55 - A dog named Kibidango steals the necklace and the chase the dog to the Mushroom Kingdom. Because the plot demands it and the movie is only 65-ish minutes long.
    56 - Bowser plans to wed Peach on Friday the 13th, because that is the best day to get married on apparently.
    57 - Mario and Luigi need the 3 MacGuffins to defeat Boswer, with each one a Mario Bros game powerup (the Mushrrom of Strength, the Flower of Courage and the Yellow Star of Invincibility)
    58 - They manage to get these right as the wedding starts on Friday the 13th and defeat Bowser (pretty sure Invincibility alone would have been enough, but plot logic)
    59 - The dog from before transormfs into Prince Haru of the Flower Kingdom, because Bowser is a dick and has magic. You do the math. He's also Peach's fated no matter what fiance, so Mario gets nothing for his troubles.
    60 - Bowser and his minions have to work at Mario's grocery store as punishment for what they did. Because that makes total sense.
    61 - The movies had some neat merchandise for it made. Phone cards, watches, rice containers, ramen, manga, an art book, 3 riddle books and a limited edition soundtrack (only 50 were ever made of it) with VHS and Betemax releases of the movie made afterwards. All merch is considered rare with the VHS tape of the movie condiered the rarest VHS tape ever to be made. And its all Japan exclusive so have fun on ebay with that. What's that? Where's the weird fact for this one? I like turtles. Now lemme get my coffee. Also its, unknown hom much the movie grossed. Spoon.

    62. I have an MPEG of that Anime OVA, which is potentially as rare as tapes of it.
    63. Both Mario and Luigi have had outfit changes, several times.
    64. In the aforementioned anime, Luigi us in it for the money, and there is a King of Mushroom Land.
    65. The only other occurrence of a Mushroom King us in the live action film, where the princess is Daisy.
    66. Both major families of powerups are Psychedelia.
    67. Mario was inspired by a landlord of a property that Nintendo had rented
    68. Super Mario World, is a subtitle in Japan, as the proper game title thete, is 'Super Mario Bris 4., Super Mario World'
    69. SMB4 development began on the Famicom in 1989-90, and transitioned to the SFC.
    70. Super Mario Land enemies and powerups never appeared in non-GB titles.

    71. Mario's picture is on the wall inside houses in A Link To The Past.
    72. Mario actually can run faster than Sonic the Hedgehog.
    73. Mario can swim in underwater levels, but in land levels he dies if he falls in the water.

    74: Luigi's super-high foot-wiggling slow jump in Super Mario 2 USA only happens in that game.
    75: Red-shelled Koopas will turn around and go back when they reach the edge of the platform, but green-shelled koopas will walk right off it.
    76: Yoshi gains different powers when he eats koopas shells of a certain color, unless he is any color besides green, in which case he will have the same power no matter what color shell he eats.
    77: Yoshi doesn't actually "eat" these shells, he just holds them in his mouth and eventually either swallows them whole or spits them out.

    78. Bowser has a son but doesn't have a wife.
    79. The only enemy from the original Mario Bros. game to make it into later Mario titles was the turtle.
    80. Mini-ninjis and Pokeys are the only SMB 2 USA enemies to appear in later Mario titles.
    81. A green mushroom gives Mario/Luigi an extra life, though eating a green-colored mushroom in reality would do just the opposite.

    82 - [an additive to an earlier one by Zoria] There was actually a Mushroom King in the Super Mario comics by Valiant Comics in the early 90s and featured characters from every Mario game from Super Mario Bros to Mario 3.
    83 - Some characters included Wart, Shy Guys, and a few otehr Mario 2 enemies as well as the Koopalings from Mario 3.
    84 - Aside from the Mushrrom King as an original character, there was also a mushroom retainer named Booster who was a butler of sorts and in one issue where he felt he was not needed, he left the ccastle only to be kidnapped by Bowser. The Mushrrom King (who at the time and at other times was going through one of his highly egotisitcal mood swings) believed Booster turned traitor until Mario and Toad went to rescue him and prove the King wrong. After fighting through an army of of Bowser's minions, they get into his castle only to find that Booster had feed them so much junk food they all went into hibernation (because RAISINS) and had been waiting for a rescue.
