If the whole brooklyn origins isn't actually canon, then how is Mario italian?

If the whole brooklyn origins isn't actually canon, then how is Mario italian?

How does brooklyn not exist in the world but italy does?

what does one thing have to do with the other

who said brooklyn doesn't exist

In the same way Kanto/Johto is Japan without Japan existing.

Also, wasn't Isle Delfino Italy inspired?

jfc dude

It's just a fucking accent. Martinet went with the goofy Italian accent because he thought it would be more fun to listen to than a gruff New Yorker, and went into the casting talking about pizza and pasta.

It's like asking why there are people in the Mario universe with British or French accents. You know damn well those countries don't exist in Mario's universe but you get what the implication is.

Because he's got a moustache duh

But they were hamming it up with pizza and pasta long before Martinet was ever involved

I don't know if this was in any of the cartoons or anything but I always imagined that Mario and Luigi were just average plumbers in Brooklyn who got sucked down a magic green pipe or some shit into the Mushroom Kingdom.

Yeah, that's from the cartoons.

Figures. It's a pretty clean explanation if you just ignore yoshi's island.

That band is CUTE

Jesus christ you guys are literally Dobson-tier with this shit
He is a plumber with an italian accent who fights a giant lizard monster to save a princess
Who the fuck cares about canon and shit

Because in the US they made it so if he came from Brooklyn he could still be italian and from the US

You'd make a good point OP.

Unless there's two Marios. One from Brooklyn, the other from Italy.

From 64, two Phantoms were born.

They're Italian Plumbers in the Mushroom Kingdom.
No need to worry about it.

Nintendo shills coming to shut this down. We're on to something here, something they don't want released.

The entire backstory is literally in the theme song for the Super Mario Bros Super Show cartoons

>It's the Mario Brothers and plumbin's their game
>Found the secret warp zone while working on the drain

It's even graphically depicted in the intro sequence.

it's worth noting that it's also been established that russia, brazil, and japan all exist in the mario universe through the olympic video games and announcement in rio

yeah, even the Music has a Italian tone, well, more like a Venesian tone.

Italian is a race.
Brooklyn is a location.
You can be a race and born in a different country. Mario's parents are Italian, so he's Italian, but they moved to America and so he was born in Brooklyn. Or alternatively: he was born in Italy, but the family moved to Brooklyn when he was an infant and so he grew up there.

Of course you are going to worry about cannons. You need those to get all the stars in Super Mario 64.
