This is why the mentally challenged should be barred from internet use. The result is never pretty.

This may quite possibly be the question of the answer to the meaning of life: 42. Is Mario Real? 42! It makes sense now!

Mario Segali was a landlord who was the namesake for The Mario, but you're asking if a 4ft italian plumber with a propensity for eating mushrooms and stomping on things is real... I'd say no.

The concept of Mario, the thought that represents Mario... in the abstract sense Mario exists. In the concrete sense, only representations, be they in neurons, silicon or watercolor.

In the sense that Mario exerts influence on the world he is real. But that is not the same as being able to shake his hand, or have him go to the market and choose which brand of garbanzo beans to buy, or tell you what he thinks of Phantom of the Opera.

Not a real person, but a real concept of a person. So, uh, "yes and no".

You've got to be kidding me. I've been further even more decided to use even go need to do look more as anyone can. Can you rally be far even as decided half as much to use go wish for that? My guess is that when one really been far even as decided to use even go want, it is then that he has really been far even as decided to use even go want to do look more like. It's just common sense

Well you can start by comparing Mario to something you deem real, like a cup.

So you have your cup, you drink from it, it brings value to your life. But one day you drop the cup and it breaks and cannot be repaired. You sweep away the pieces of glass (are the glass pieces the cup or just simply glass pieces?) and go buy a new cup.

The old cup is forgotten and in a year you'll have forgotten that it even existed in the first place.

On the other hand the Mario name has helped Nintendo sell millions of copies of games, made Miyamoto a very rich man and is known throughout the world.

If you use his image in your product be prepared to be taken to court.

People write stories, songs and comics about his life.

So this question shouldn't be "Is Mario real"

it should be "What is real?"

"Whoa"
