Since 1985, Super Mario has been an unstoppable force in gaming, bringing us legendary adventures, rage-inducing levels, and, most importantly, memes. Whether it’s Mario’s relentless determination to save Peach (only for her to be in another castle) or Luigi’s silent, simmering resentment, Nintendo’s favorite plumber has gifted the internet with meme gold. From classic rage-quits on Rainbow Road to Bowser’s unexpected dad energy, the world of Mario memes is as vast as the Mushroom Kingdom itself.
So grab your Super Stars and power-ups, because we’re about to jump into 15 Super Mario memes that will always be a 1-up. Whether you’re a hardcore speedrunner or a casual “I just like Mario Kart” player, these memes will have you laughing harder than Waluigi getting rejected from Smash Bros.
Press start for 15 hilarious Super Mario memes that will never game over
1. The real Olympic sprinter (via @pichitime on X)
Peach is out here running for her life like she’s modeling for a medieval escape room commercial. Zero urgency, maximum elegance. If she ever gets caught, at least she’ll go down with grace.
2. Chris Prattification of Mario (via @gabagoolmarx on X)
Hearing Chris Pratt’s Mario voice was like biting into a chocolate chip cookie and realizing it’s raisins. We all saw it coming, but somehow, it still hurt.
3. Got milk? Got Mario? (via @SuperMarioOOC85 on X)
Mario milk is proof that capitalism will slap a mustache on anything and call it limited edition. The real question is: does it give you an extra life, or just lactose intolerance?
4. New Zealand is a side quest (via @SuperMarioOOC85 on X)
Mario characters know something we don’t. Maybe the Mushroom Kingdom is actually just Wellington in disguise. Maybe Toad is part of the Illuminati. The lore runs deep.
5. Glow up of the decade (via @SuperMarioOOC85 on X)
Old DK looked like he just got out of a long shift at the construction site. New DK looks like he eats raw eggs for breakfast and bench presses barrels for fun.
6. Shrink it like Mario (via @_claypot on X)
So if eating a mushroom makes Mario "Super," then regular Mario is just… a guy? A tiny, fragile plumber just trying his best? My childhood is ruined.
7. Toad’s secret language (via @wawafag on X)
Toad saying “hawk tuah” is the greatest gaming conspiracy of our time. Either I’m losing my mind, or that little guy is spitting straight-up wisdom.
8. Groundbreaking plumbing lore (via @SB2749 on X)
“Mario is a plumber who uses pipes.” Thank you, John, for this earth-shattering revelation. Next, tell me how Sonic running fast is a reference to moving quickly.
9. JFK conspiracy speedrun (via @earthycrust on X)
When Mario characters start debating historical events, you know it’s time to put the controller down. Chef Pee Pee warping through dimensions mid-argument? Peak gaming horror.
10. Shower thoughts, but make it Mario (via @JustinWhang on X)
Imagine having the deepest, most philosophical thoughts, only to open your mouth and say “yahoo.” Truly, the burden of being an Italian plumber is heavy.
11. Elvis would be disappointed (via @SuperMarioFacts on X)
Nothing stings more than Mario telling you your costume stinks. The man fights a giant turtle in space, but somehow your outfit is the real disgrace.
12. The Super Mario comedy grind (via @ThirstyAssAlt on X)
One day you’re opening for Kevin Hart, the next you’re cracking jokes in a mustache and overalls. The stand-up game is as unpredictable as a blue shell on Rainbow Road.
13. Mandela Effect: Bowser but bluer (via @cooper200882 on X)
There’s no proof that a blue Bowser named Browser exists, but deep down, we all remember. This is either a gaming legend or the biggest gaslighting in Mario history.
14. Luigi, the childhood menace (via @4siranush on X)
Some of y’all saw Luigi as a lovable sidekick. Others saw him in their nightmares. Those long, looming limbs? That unsettling aura? The man was terrifying.
15. Mario’s battle escalations (via @SB2749 on X)
Mario games start with a simple castle rescue and end with him throwing hands inside a collapsing galaxy. Pacing? Who needs it?
Trending
Mario may be the face of gaming nostalgia, but his memes are eternal. Whether it’s the pain of slipping off Rainbow Road or the chaos of dodging blue shells, these jokes hit close to home for every player. Nintendo might be carefully curating its legacy, but the internet? It’s having way too much fun with it.
So next time you hear that iconic “It’s-a me, Mario!”, just remember: he’s not just a gaming legend—he’s a meme icon.
