Clothing

You can dress up your character with Mario-themed clothing and accessories, some of which are also in the GameCube Animal Crossing.

  • big bro's shirt - a red shirt with Mario's "M" logo
  • li'l bro's shirt - a green shirt with Luigi's "L" logo
  • big bro's hat - Mario's hat
  • li'l bro's hat - Luigi's hat
  • big bro mustache - a Mario nose-and-mustache combo
  • Toad parasol - a red umbrella with white dots (Toad's hat colors reversed)
  • Toad shirt - a red shirt with white dots (known as "toad print" in the GameCube version)

Other stuff

One of the stationery designs is called "SMB3 paper" and resembles the Super Mario Bros. 3 title screen.

The "arcade machine" shows Luigi and Mario facing each other in a fighting game. "Nintendo" is written in white letters on both sides of the cabinet.

The "pinball machine" has the artwork from the Japanese Super Mario Bros. packaging on its backglass and a picture of Mario on its lower playfield. The pictures show up much clearer in Animal Crossing: City Folk.

One rock per day yields multiple bags of bells when struck with your shovel. For a limited time, each whack with your shovel will knock out a bag. After four bags come out, the classic Mario 1-Up tune will play for each subsequent bag that you knock out.
