Yoshi, the adorable green dinosaur from Nintendo’s Mario franchise, is in the headlines when a buzz came in that Yoshi would now have a burger joint in Mariokart 9.
Netizens are in stitches over the chatter that Yoshi is not just munching on berries but, contrary to common expectation, running a burger joint in a game. The comments are a treat to read.

For gaming fans, Mario and Yoshi are the ultimate power-packed duo. Like the Sun is to the Moon, but in a different manner. We always imagine them together.
Mario, the quirky plumber with a knack for jumping here and there and mustache-twirling, tries to save the Mushroom Kingdom. But Mario is always full of energy, which makes his character unmatched. Enter Yoshi, his sidekick who eats berries and leaves.
Who said only medics can save lives? In the world of Mario, everyone is aware of how sacrificing a Yoshi for a long jump in Super Mario World is a common tactic.
Yoshi is not what you think he is. He hatches big spotted eggs (when biology says no, but Nintendo says yes). Yoshi also has a long tongue that’d make a chameleon jealous, and he turns enemies into eggs. He eats everything under the Sun. Leaves, berries, and, at times, Mario's chances of a safe landing after a long jump.
You have seen Yoshi in lush landscapes, dodging fireballs, or fighting with Bowser time and again. Mario and Yoshi’s partnership is legendary. Yoshi is the perfect sidekick.
In the world of gaming, vivid settings create the guise of being a part of just another world like ours. The burger joint may similarly help gamers relate their surroundings to the game's setting.
