SuperMario 30 years old. It also draws migrants – La Gazzetta dello Sport

More than 310 million copies sold and an unrivaled reputation in the world (for a character in a video game): Super Mario celebrates his 30 years. It was September 13, 1985 when it came out in Japan Shigeru Miyamoto’s Super Mario Bros, the game that recovered an already introduced four years ago as a carpenter Jumpman Donkey Kong , then transformed into hydraulic Mario Bros in 1983. The arrival in 1985 of Super Mario Bros not so much marked the birth of the icon, as its global success. An incredible phenomenon: in fact, the theme music, composed by Koji Kondo, remained atop the Billboard Ringtone for 125 weeks, and it was even performed in live concerts by philharmonic orchestras in the world.



the refugee – The game, and the character, are very much alive. Proof? A young Syrian – 29 years, uses the pseudonym Samir Al-Mufti and has taken refuge in Turkey – has created a video went viral on the net that is called Mario refugee : shows a Syrian refugee who embarks on a perilous journey from their country to Europe. The graphics and style are inspired by the adventures of the plumber Italian-American. Only meets smugglers and border police hostile, he wants to stop it and prevent it from reaching the coveted blue flag with 12 stars, symbolizing the EU.

house nintendo – A little ‘to celebrate and a little’ to cool further the title, Nintendo has made Super Mario Maker for Wii U, a game that allows users to test their skills in the levels of Super Mario created from other players, or to realize their personal adventures and share them online. The new game is available in two versions: one is the Super Mario Maker Wii U Premium Pack with Wii U Premium Black, a copy of Super Mario Maker, an art book in hardcover and amiibo Mario Mario’s 30th Anniversary Collection in classic colors. The other by the name of Super Mario Maker Limited Edition Pack, with a copy of the game, bound artbook and amiibo Mario from the same collection.
