The Super Mario franchise has made an impact far beyond the world of gaming. The plumber can be found nearly everywhere, as the Nintendo mascot is all over apparel, in movies, and a copy of the original Super Mario Bros. broke records for the best-selling collectible. Now, someone has spotted a Super Mario animation on a train in Japan.
Nintendo has advertised in unique and fun ways in the past, and Super Mario is at the forefront of that. A recent video posted on r/Mario by Reddit user u/Poocchann shows a trivia video that can apparently be found on trains in Japan, just one example of Nintendo's creativity.

The challenge asks Mario fans to help the hero save his brother Luigi. Selecting the right answer means that Bowser leaves in disappointment and Luigi and Mario are joined again together. Interestingly, the Mario animation also appears to be a part of the 35th anniversary of Super Mario. Nintendo stopped celebrating the occasion on March 31, which fans online say is the day that Mario died, but Nintendo still has some anniversary-themed celebrations available.

In the case of this piece of trivia, Luigi is in danger. Nintendo just announced a Luigi LEGO set, so making sure Mario's brother has escaped from Bowser's grasp is paramount. Whether it be inside of the world-popular games, on apparel, in LEGO toys, or on trains in Japan, Super Mario seems to be all over the world.
