We're still deciding if we're more in love with the most erotic zero G scene since Barbarella or the part where
Just to reiterate: Someone suggested this. And they weren't shot with a tranquilizer dart. Hell, they may have been promoted. At least now we know how Nintendo's spending all that Wii money: On hallucinogenic mushrooms big enough to choke Mr. Snuffleupagus.

Damn I was thinking Mario would take on Buzz Lightyear until I saw still for the video and realized my mistake. :(

Wow... I don't know what to say. Its, uhm.... scary?

I need to stop smoking weed....

I wanted to see the part of the video that they cut out. You know where the guy in the Mario suit is floating upside down and they pull out of the decent restoring normal gravity and Mario comes crashing the the ground head first.

"Just to reiterate: Someone suggested this"
even worse, the second man to walk on the moon Dr. Buzz Aldrin AGREED to do this.
HineyWipe @ Nov 7th 2007 4:07PM
Ah, but who gets to clean out the costume when the "Vomit Comet" lands?
arrakisman @ Nov 7th 2007 4:08PM
I met Buzz at a rocket contest once. Nice guy. His publicist wouldn't let him sign my model rocket though.

now this IS living.

Damn, I thought Mario was going to tell him he never walked on the moon, and Buzz came out with fists flying like in 2002:

I'm pretty sure that when you say "the best thing you'll see today," you're not taking into account the scads of asian butt porn I have on my hard drive.

I prefer the recent nightmarish PS3 over this thing: http://www.joystiq.com/2007/11/05/european-ps3-ad-takes-a-step-back-into-crazytown/
As weird as the PS3 ad is, at least it doesn't feature an astronaut awkwardly groping and leglocking a fat plumber while freestyling Shakespeare.
Gregorius @ Nov 7th 2007 4:44PM
Creepy. How much money did this ad cost Nintendo?
Rubang B (BRUSH WITH FAME) @ Nov 7th 2007 4:50PM
The big punchline is gonna be how Buzz Aldrin actually approached Nintendo with this idea and funded it himself. I bet he even supplied the costume.
moominsean @ Nov 7th 2007 5:10PM
the inside of that mario head is probably coated with vomit.
Leobebes @ Nov 7th 2007 5:26PM
The sad reality is that Super Mario actually did walk on the moon (Mario Galaxy) unlike "sucker punch" Buzz.
AirIntake @ Nov 7th 2007 6:07PM
Buzz did walk on the moon, about 15 min after Armstrong. Unless you're one of those conspiracy whack jobs (who seem to have trouble with research and logic), this is a fact.
Leobebes @ Nov 7th 2007 6:15PM
It's a proven fact that Buzz and the U.S. did not walk on the moon. He would've been incinerated by solar flares or a cyclic radiation belt if they attempted to actually fly to the moon. Mario did because he used star power to circumvent those galactic issues. So Buzz is a poser and Mario is the real deal.
AirIntake @ Nov 7th 2007 6:25PM
Ahh, I see.
angryguy77 @ Nov 7th 2007 5:32PM
does mario have a boner in this vid? so much for nintendo being "family friendly.
Rubang B (BRUSH WITH FAME) @ Nov 7th 2007 5:51PM
I'd say boners are the most family-friendly thing in existence, considering how they, ya know, make families.
jorojoserojas @ Nov 7th 2007 7:35PM
Can't argue with Rubang's logic.
Marrvia @ Nov 7th 2007 5:44PM
Isn't Mario like 5'0"? He's at least a head shorter than the princess.
angryguy77 @ Nov 7th 2007 5:45PM
anyone who pronounces his name maryo should be shot and killed where they are standing.
Rubang B (BRUSH WITH FAME) @ Nov 7th 2007 5:48PM
Except for Rick Moranis in Ghostbusters.
j-marr @ Nov 7th 2007 10:48PM
anyone else find the picture of Buzz wrapping his legs around Mario's leg disturbing? I need a shower and some freeze-dried ice cream.
Joe Smith @ Nov 7th 2007 6:13PM
You have no idea how sad it makes me to see one of the biggest heroes of my childhood shilling for a video game company.
MrCheeks @ Nov 7th 2007 6:21PM
Mario or Buzz?
AirIntake @ Nov 7th 2007 6:25PM
Ah I see. I've never considered that possibility before. This changes everything.
doug @ Nov 7th 2007 6:40PM
And don't that forget Mario's wearing a diaper - standard issue on those Zero-G flights. Serioulsy.
gonk @ Nov 7th 2007 6:45PM
go buzz

Hashbrown_Hunter @ Nov 7th 2007 8:10PM
