How Mario Started.

[Horizon]

We all know Mario with his awesome jumping skills and his magic powers, but how did he really start off? Well here is how to story went.

A team of developers were making the "Jump Man" and they lived in a set of flats, and their landlord needed money for rent. But they had no money so they said that they would put there landlord in their game and the landlord was called Mario, so that's where the name Mario came from, they gave him a mustache because they weren't good with facial features.

So there is the basics of where Mario came from Post comments if I have missed anything out. :laugh:
