“	I mean, the... I like the Super Mario Galaxy 1. So, Suboio Galaxy 2 sounds like something I might, uh, go- I would consider buying. Yeah.	”
Chris in 2009

A level that Chris made in Super Mario Maker.

Super Mario Bros. (Often referred to as the Super Mario series, or more simply the Mario series) is a Japanese video game franchise owned by Nintendo and created by Japanese video game designer Shigeru Miyamoto. Most of the games in the series feature the adventures of Mario, an Italian plumber, on his quest to save the princess of the Mushroom Kingdom from a villain named Bowser. Acting as the company's mascot, as well as being the eponymous protagonist of the series, Mario has appeared in over 200 video games since his creation.

Chris's relationship with Mario

Despite his obsessive brand loyalty, the fact that his former icon, Sonic the Hedgehog, was made to rival Mario, that he hated the Harry Potter franchise precisely for this reason (seeing it as a competitor to Pokémon), and how he reacted when he felt that said icon was being defaced, he oddly never showed any grudge towards the plumber. In fact, Chris actually owns a good chunk of his games. It's entirely possible that Chris, owning multiple Nintendo and Sega consoles, was somehow blissfully unaware of Sega's aggressive marketing campaign positioning themselves as serious rivals to Nintendo (and later, Sony), or perhaps he simply did not care about it.

Chris's email address for much of the 2000s was ItsameCWC@aol.com, a nod to Mario's catchphrase "It's-a me, Mario!"

Chris purchased an Amiibo for "Mario/Peach/Bowser (Wedding 3-Pack)" on 6 December 2018.

Mario Kart 64

Mario Kart 64 Lego Raceway is a video series featured on Chris's "Yep, I'm on TV" DVD. It was filmed using a Game Boy Camera in 1998 when Chris was still in Manchester High School. The Game Boy Camera is a bulky Game Boy accessory cartridge with a camera built into it, which can be placed into a Game Boy and be used to take grainy black-and-white pictures. Afterward, these pictures can be edited in various ways; they can be drawn on, turned into sprites for a handful of minigames, be printed out with another expensive accessory called the "Game Boy Printer", or strung together to make an animation as Chris did. Using the camera and his Lego collection, Chris made a stop-motion animation of the cars racing around his Lego city and firing shells (or in this case, Star and Circle shapes) at each other, then added some appropriate music.

The Game Boy Camera can only hold thirty pictures at a time; that isn't nearly enough for even half a lap. What Chris did was take the thirty pictures, edit them appropriately, string them together into an animation, record the animation, and then repeat the process over and over. To make the sudden starting and stopping seem more "natural", Chris put a second of static at the end of each set of pictures. This didn't do anything to change how the twenty-second music clip Chris used for his animation gets more grating every time it is used.

It is impressive that Chris expended so much time and effort at such a complex and frustrating task, especially considering that years later, he would draw Sonichu comics without any planning or practice and upload YouTube videos without bothering to check them over first. Despite this, the actual animation is jerky and erratic, presumably due to the extremely low frame-per-second count (the average stop-motion production has 12 frames per second).

In the actual race videos, it's near impossible to tell what's going on, since most of the racers look exactly the same in poor quality black-and-white pictures. It doesn't help that the racing is regularly interrupted by confusing sequences where outsiders attack the racers.

The sequences also appear to have been transferred onto VHS tape at some point, as evidenced by the vertical stabilization problems, the noise at the bottom of the picture at the beginning of the first video, and the general picture quality of the video. Chris got the video on VHS by putting the Game Boy Camera into a Super Game Boy and hooking up his SNES to a VCR to record it from there.

Mario Kart 8

In May 2014, Mario Kart 8 was released worldwide on the Wii U and later ported onto the Nintendo Switch in 2018 with additional content. Although Chris has a Switch, it’s currently unknown if he owns Mario Kart 8 Deluxe. Chris bought MK8 the same year of it’s release, despite the fact that he and his mom were suffering through financial hardship. Chris started uploading some videos of his gameplay. It is worth noting Chris has at least the second DLC pack for the game, so it can be assumed he has the first as well. On 17 July 2014, Chris created a video by using the MKTV editor and uploader. He posted it onto Miiverse and Youtube, officially confirming that the Miiverse account was owned by the TRUE and HONEST creator of Sonichu. Chris must have enjoyed making them because he made five more.

Super Mario Maker

Super Mario Maker is a 2015 side-scrolling platform game and game creation system developed and published by Nintendo for the Wii U, released worldwide in September 2015. Players can create, play, and share courses online, free of charge, based on the styles of Super Mario Bros., Super Mario Bros. 3, Super Mario World, and New Super Mario Bros. U.

Chris has made several levels in Super Mario Maker. A video showcase of these levels can be seen here.

Bowsette

“	I, literally, was hit on by Bowsette yesterday, after destroying a bunch of roboticized Koopas, Myself, and I Knew I should never have the thing to do with her, so I had to push her away and send her back to her father, Bowser.	”
Chris fantasizing about a fictional character hitting on him

Chris and Bowsette

Bowsette is a fanmade gender-swapped version of Super Mario Bros. villain Bowser. She had been created on 19 September 2018 by a Twitter artist. During September 2018, Chris found out about the character and had an extended fantasy about her. He illustrated the fantasy in drawings, and posted on Twitter about it.

On 24 September, Chris tweeted that he had discussed Bowsette with his loves and, disagreeing with the creator's backstory on Bowsette, instead decided that she was not a gender-swapped version of Bowser, but rather the daughter of Bowser and Peach, implying that Bowser had raped Peach.

“	Bowser did have his way with Peach during the events of Super Mario Bros. 3, and she laid the egg while waiting for Mario. Bowsette hatched from the egg. Bowser, and a hired Nanny, raised Bowsette all these years.	”
Chris reimagining Bowsette as being the product of rape.

Chris also believed Bowsette to be sexually promiscuous, writing that "That gal sure got around, and she Really Gets around. Believe it or not, Bowser has been paying her allowance in recent years to lay eggs; she’s laid more than 3,000!" and "She also has daddy issues, and her mom, Peach, has been very disappointed in Bowsette." Chris also noted that he was tempted by Bowsette, but didn't want to have sex with her, claiming out of fear for what could be born.

Chris also claimed during the fantasy that he had raped a Koopa Troopa and that this resulted in a "blue part-Sonichu/Koopa child".

The following day, Chris had a fantasy that he, Sonichu, and Rosechu battled robotic Koopa Troopas sent by Bowser and Namgee. Bowsette then hit on Chris, but Chris pushed her away back to her father Bowser.

In the comics

There have been Mario inspired things within the Sonichu comics, such as SUPER Chris-Chan Sonichu's weeb wings, this takes inspiration from Chris's Anime Mid-Atlantic wings given to attenders (Note that this was primarily meant for women) and most likely the Wing Cap from Mario 64, This was used once or twice and then never again.
