Their outfits remind me of potato chips


This is something I thought a long time ago when I first saw the game. When I first saw Mario, I thought of Pringles potato chips. Then when I saw Luigi in his green and white outfit and his orange face, I thought of Sour Cream & Onion. Weird, I know, but did anyone else feel that way?

No. You must have been really hungry.

So you don't see the resemblence between green-white-orange Luigi and a sour cream and onion potato chip?

reply

I felt that way too. Odd.

It's subliminal advertising. How else do you explain why Pringle's is a sponsor of Beach Spikers for Nintendo GameCube over 20 years later?
And how do I explain that this latest analogy is utterly ridiculous?

This game always made me want to eat peanut butter ice cream or a Reese's Peanut Butter Cup, especially when I looked at the bricks. Can't really explain why.

reply

I'm allergic to peanuts, but their outfits didn't remind me of potato chips either.
