Super Mario Brothers' Gadgets

Just when you thought you saw everything Mario known to mankind...I happened to cross along these Mario products sold in ThinkGeek.

1. Super Mario Solar Mushroom
Normally mushrooms grow in the dark but this special golden mushroom is an unusual species that seems to love the sun. Place it on your desk or windowsill, apply a slight bit of sun or other light, and it begins to bop back and forth. Watch it long enough and you're sure to start seeing some Yoshies right at the edge of your vision where they're kind of hard to spot.



2. Plush Mario Sound Bops
With these Plush Mario Sound Bops peppering the course when we squint our eyes we can almost envision being in a real video game. Hit the plush Brick Block on the bottom and you get a coin sound from the game. Jump on the plush Goomba (or simply bop him on the head) and he makes the defeated Goomba sound... unless you bop him one too many and you get the "game over" noise.



3. New Super Mario Sound Drops
Super Mario Sound Drop Keychains are something about a princess and gold coins and mushrooms... with lots of subtle Nintendo game references thrown in. But fact is, these Sound Drop Keychains are cooler than a barrel of Yoshies. There are eight different varieties of keychains and each makes a New Super Mario Brothers sound when you press the button on the front. Your favorite might be "1Up"... but "Start" is a classic... It's recommended that you purchase liberally and use judiciously to punctuate your day-to-day activities.

4. Mario Bros. USB Mouse
Your choice of a pixelish Mario or the highly desirable golden star. Both offer a retro 8-bit appeal and feature the original mechanical mouse ball mechanism that you probably forgot existed. Push one of these beauties across your desk and imagine that you are playing Super Mario Brothers... rather than filling out those boring reports.
