OTHER FREQUENTLY ASKED QUESTIONS
WHAT IS MARIO'S LAST NAME?
If you acknowledge the existence of the 1993 Super Mario Bros. movie (and you shouldn't — even the director can't look back fondly), Mario and Luigi's last name is Mario. Really. Mario Mario. Miyamoto, however, says Mario is a mononym like Madonna or Sting (or, if you aren't old enough to have serious concerns about arthritis, Sia or Drake). This question actually started a brief e-fistfight (with lots of name-calling) among the guide staff. Please ask easier frequent questions.
IS YOSHI A BOY OR A GIRL?
Look. We'd love to go down this rabbit hole with you, but we don't have the time and our crazywall is still covered in Westworld theories. Yoshi is a member of a species of dinosaur called yoshi (weird!), and he sometimes lays eggs. We don't understand how it works, either. Don't you have any questions about the game?
COINS ARE JUST SCATTERED ALL OVER THE GROUND AND IN THE AIR IN THE MUSHROOM KINGDOM. SHOULDN'T THIS RAISE SOME PRETTY SERIOUS QUESTIONS ABOUT INFLATION AND PRINCESS PEACH'S ECONOMIC POLICIES?

IN MOST MARIO GAMES, COLLECTING ENOUGH COINS WILL EARN YOU AN EXTRA LIFE. IS THIS A METAPHOR FOR THE RICH ATTEMPTING TO BUY IMMORTALITY?
Stop.
