Do you know the world﹣popular character(角色),Mario?He has a very big nose with beard. He always wears a red hat and blue rompers. Where does he come from?Why is he so popular?Let's learn something about this cute man.
He doesn't come from cartoons like Mickey Mouse. He is from a very popular game called Super Mario. This game makes Nintendo,the company(公司) from Japan,be the super star around the world. Nintendo made Mario in 1981. At that time,Nintendo wanted to make everyone remember the cute man,so it gave the character two colors,red and blue. People can find and remember the two colors in our life without difficulty. When Mario was born,Nintendo called him as"Jumpman". Because when he jumps high,he can get something to eat,like mushroom(蘑菇). When he eats a mushroom,he will grow fatter and taller. He will also﹣have some special skills like making fire after jumping high to eat other things to win the game. Because of his cute face and interesting game stories,many people like it best.
This winter vacation,many people began playing this game again. People couldn't go out to work and play,so playing with Mario became popular again. But keeping sitting at sofa or chair and using the game handles for a long time aren't healthy. So Nintendo gave some new games like Ring Fit to help people exercise at home. People can run,play tennis,play volleyball,and do some other sports like before It's a new way for us to keep exercising at home when the weather is terrible.
