The email that Nintendo sent me bills Super Mario Bros. as "Mario and Luigi. Together for the very first time."

That's wrong, isn't it?

You should sue.

There is no ''I'' in team...Nor is there an ''I'' in group, gang, crew, squad, club, band, party, crowd, cluster, troop, or set.

Extreme Akim: Sugar Ray, bring over the evidence.  In the arcade version of Donkey Kong, Jr., there are clearly Mario brothers present even though they all wear red and blue.  What does that tell us?

I noticed that in the e-mail too, it's just a plan to attract people to the game who don't know much about gaming history. Speaking of Classic NES Inaccuracy (not Ad, though), in Animal Crossing, when you read data from the Jumpman Mario e-card, it says it's his graphic from Donkey Kong when it's obviously Super Mario Bros.! And they call it Jumpman...

Do the Mario! Swing your arms from side to side, come on, it''s time to go do the Mario! Take one step, and then again, let''s do the Mario all together now! You got it! It''s the Mario! Do the Mario! Swing your arms from side to side, come on, it''s time to go do the Mario! Take one step, and then again! Let''s do the Mario altogether now! Come on now! Just like that!

There's also another error in that very same ad... For Donkey Kong:
"Rescue the fair princess from the clutches of Donkey Kong."

Last time I checked, Pauline wasn't a princess. And Peach isn't even IN the game if they're thinking she's her...

Anyone can be a princess if they feel like one.
