Nintendo comments on Mario’s Fake-iverse

Impressive hoax sets Web alight

Posted by Staff
Nintendo of Japan has made clear its position on Mario’s Universe, the game featured in a video clip currently doing the round on the Internet. Apparently, the game is a hoax…

We know such images are available on the 'Net," was the official line from Nintendo Japan. "They are not Nintendo's. At this point in time it appears that some amateur has made this up just for their amusement."

The hoax video is impressive, so much so that many gamers on the Web are refusing to believe Nintendo’s denial.

Interestingly, the source of the video states that it plans to release more clips from the “game” soon and reiterates that the footage is genuine.

Argh, we want to believe so much… Don’t do this to us!
