Wait, where in any of the games does it say that Mario & Luigi are from New York?

Also, so many heroes are in New York because it's a diverse place...and it's where a lot of publishing goes on...so writers are there and it made for easy writing to just write in local areas...at least, that's what I've heard on Stan Lee's end...It's an easy place for lots of people (in America) to relate to, being the cultural icon of the "big city/apple".

Avengers: West Coast just doesn't (uh-hem...didn't) work.

Ummm...I'm Jewish, and I have super powers. Don't know how you two missed out, but, hey, whatever.

It says it in the game manuals that they're from NYC.

Hey, I'm the one that went to Jerusalam and prayed there, I should get the superpowers! ><"

Oh, and the SMB movie states they're from NYC, too. [/quote]

American made (& not to mention produced) game movies hardly count (especially when they suck it up so bad)...And I'm also highly suspicious of the NA game manuals as well...What about the Japanese manuals?

SMB the movie makes baby Jesus cry. (I'd never say that unless I coulden't find a better saying. ~Spits on ground~)

Oh, I didn't pray for mine, they were sent out of spite. See, they work against me about as often as they work for me, so I'm still back at square one. And did you pray at the Wall, or just in the city?

I can't remember a time when a manual's been contradicted by the storyline in-game.

The Wall. I prayed in my heart (Not on my knees... Well, I WAS eight years-old) and putted a little note in the wall where I asked that our financial problems will be solved. I'm still waiting from God to get around to reading that one... It's been almost eight years!

Yeah, but there's hardly a storyline at all in most of the Mario games...It's just..."You're a plumber who shoots fireballs out of your nose and you've got to save the Princess...but she's in another castle right now...thanks for helpin out the toadstools though."
