Nintendo and the Pasta World Record

http://www.nintendo.com/news/news_ar...articleID=7247

Quote:

The world's most loved and recognized Italian plumber Mario, is cooking up something for the world to enjoy. Marking the release of his upcoming adventure, Super Mario Sunshine(tm) for Nintendo GameCube(tm) in true al dente style - Mario and Nintendo plan to break the world record for the largest bowl of edible pasta.

To date, the largest bowl of spaghetti topped the scales at 2,564 pounds. The new record will weigh in at 2,700 pounds of pasta and sauce, provided by Bucca di Beppo.

This is a call for Mario fans to come to San Francisco and show the world how devoted you are.

WHAT:
Dress in your best Mario attire and compete for a chance to win a tropical trip to Hawaii and help Nintendo break a world record. Winning Mario look-a-likes will be chosen by audience votes to plunge into the giant record-breaking bowl of spaghetti in hopes to win a sun-drenched trip to Hawaii and other Nintendo prizes.

WHERE:
WASHINGTON PARK (Little Italy)
Stockton and Columbus
San Francisco, CA

WHEN:
Thursday, August 22; 12:00 p.m. - 2:00 p.m.

Instead of doing all that they could just make a decent Mario commercial...

They should've picked something more "Tropical" to match SMS. But I guess, I will kick Nintendo's ass and make an even larger bowl of spaghetti! mwahahaha:devil:

Theres a trip to Hawaii if you win, thats tropical.

Mario > Italian > Pasta

I would love to go there and make fun of the people who dress up or actually look like Mario.

wouldnt that be cool if they get everything set up, and there is all these nintendo reps and crap, but nobody shows up in a mario costume, so they dont give the vacation...I dunno...

I still don't understand y a japan based company made an italian main character

Because the landlord was an Italian man named Mario who happened to look like the little Jump Man they created for Donkey Kong.

If I lived in San Francisco I'd go there dressed up as Mario. :)
