Is Mario still actually a plumber? Like is that part of the canon, or did Miyamoto have another stroke?

He hasn't been a plumber since Mario Bros.The American cartoon show/Movie are not canon.

He doesn't like to talk about his plumber days. Same with his time as a doctor before they pulled his license for prescribing illegal mushrooms.

The intro of 3D World has him and Luigi repairing a pipe like they know what they're doing, so I guess it's still there.

At this point he might as well not be.
The closest reference to plumbing are the giant pipes, which I'm pretty sure are only there anymore because they're iconic.
I mean, what would you replace them with?

I'm more concerned about the him being italian part and what that implies about the world of Mario

He is to plumbing what Indiana Jones is to archeology. What we typically see him doing doesn't exactly fit his job description but could tangentially be related to it.

Odyssey has officially, definitively confirmed Mario's world has fictionalized counterparts to real world areas FMA-style.

Yeah, just like we see Dr. Jones return to teaching between adventures, we can assume Mario spends his more peaceful days laying pipe and doing plumber things.

Which considering that he's saved royalty about eight hundred times over is a bit ridiculous.
He should be set for life and peaches poon his personal property by this point.

He's whatever he needs to be

He fixes a pipe in 3D World.

Laying pipe is slang for having sexual intercourse.
Sorry if you missed that.

Teleporting via pipes is a plumber exclusive skill dummy.

While you did miss the poon thing, who's to say Mario doesn't simply enjoy being a plumber? It's probably a pretty relaxing thing to do after you save the world 800 times.

Peach and Toads are plumbers then?

He's not even human by recent accounts from what has been gathered from Odyssey. Likely parallel worlds and such shit.

Funny how he doesn't have any plumber related moves in smash

He squirts Drano at other players, is that close enough?

He goes into pipes in literally every game.

Human in another dimension

>Mario be like "Finally I can actually do my job instead of saving the princess tod--"
>Worried Toad approaches

He's human, he's just a different kind of human from the New Donk City guys

isn't he like humanus nindendius or something dumb like that?

No idea but this was a thing in 3D World.

that was from a magazine IIRC, and that was back when he was from Brooklyn, so I'd say it's been disregarded nowadays

It's a day job, likely a self run business partnered with Luigi.
He puts it on hold when there's shit to do.
Thats how I figure it anyways.

Yes he is, he's just a human that was born and raised in the Mushroom Kingdom now.

>humanus nintendius
>dumb
Fuck you

Homo Moustaccium?

I've always loved imagining Luigi backed up as fuck whenever Mario goes on an adventure. Answering a shitload of calls and just being surrounded by tools and paperwork and shit.

gigolo.
