Do you consider Mario to be the Plumber of Video games?




As the thread says. I think Mario is the plumber of Video Games due to his long-lasting nature because of him being in games from Donkey Kong all the way to the present. Donkey Kong, Donkey Kong Jr., Mario Bros, and whatnot were golden classics of the time. Pacman came first yes, but Mario had more games than Pacman did post-crash. He is credited for defining an entire console like the Famicom/NES. It's kind of like how joe the Plumber is the Plumber of Deranged right wing media. Miyamoto himself said that Mario is the Mickey Mouse of plumbing games.

Yes, but only in the sense that he is a plumber.

Wasn't his character in donkey Kong a carpenter? Still, he is also a plumber and imo the most popular plumber in video games that I can think of.

What other noteworthy Plumber games are there really?

Unless you're loaded, save your money, and wait for sales. This isn't the 90's anymore, and most games don't become hard to find. And don't pre-order.

As far as I can recall, Mario was the only plumber-themed video game. Mario is probably the best-known video game mascot ever.

I know about those games but because most of us were introduced to Mario via the NES or SNES as kids, we identify with him as the most popular game mascot. Then came Sonic but Sonic in my opinion was never as popular as Mario.
