The Cat Mario Show - Episode 1- Super Mario 3D World & Kirby Triple Deluxe
The Cat Mario Show - Episode 29
United Kingdom.
The Cat Mario Show is a video series available via the Nintendo 3DS and Wii U eShop produced and published by Nintendo. It is aimed to educate and entertain younger players. The show is hosted by hand-puppets of Cat Mario and Cat Peach (based on the suit from Super Mario 3D World), who present each episode with facts, strategy tips, quizzes, and other content relating to the latest games for the Wii U and Nintendo 3DS.
The series was released in Japan on February 26, 2014, in Europe on July 17, 2014, and in North America on December 18, 2014. In 2016, levels said to be created by the actor and actress for Cat Mario and Cat Peach respectively appear as event courses in Super Mario Maker. Completing them unlocks Cat Mario and Cat Peach costumes.
Puppets[]
Cat Mario is one of the hosts in this show. This show reveals his several personal lives, and will sometimes take the role of a boke performer in Japanese cont, which is reflected in a performer's tendency for misinterpretation and forgetfulness (e.g., for Cat Mario's case, he misinterprets the word "girly" as "gari," a type of pickled ginger in the Japanese cuisine). Every year he heads to Los Angeles, USA, to report the information by Nintendo in Electronic Entertainment Expo (E3), but he also forgets about souvenirs for Cat Peach every time.
Cat Peach is the other host of the show. One of this show's running gags is whenever something particularly amazing or surprising happens, she often says, "Unbelievable!" Sometimes she will take a role like a tsukkomi performer in Japanese cont, which is reflected in generally rail at the boke for their mistakes and exaggerations, as opposed to be Cat Mario's boke.
Starting with episode 20, Captain Toad sometimes appears as an assistant for Cat Mario and Cat Peach. Unlike the other puppets, he does not talk in full sentences.
This show sometimes gets "interrupted" by Bowser. Bowser will be talking about the enemies and traps from certain games, or something that would beat Mario in certain games like Super Mario Maker, but then getting failed by an accident or unexpected effects/gimmicks. He also "interrupts" the show for advertising something related to Bowser in certain games. For example, in episode 13, Bowser shows a T-shirt of himself in the original Super Mario Bros. for Animal Crossing: New Leaf, and in episode 14, he makes a presentation about Mario Party 10, showing clips of the Bowser Party mode as a highlight.
In some episodes with The Legend of Zelda series-related segments, Toon Link appears as a host, in his design from The Legend of Zelda: The Wind Waker. In this show, he speaks with the verbal tic "deyaa," like Cat Mario and Peach speak with "nya."
