2's origins as a modified version of another Nintendo game, Doki Doki Panic.

The easy answer might lie with Super Mario Bros. I'm forced to ask myself, and not for the first time: Why is Nintendo scared of paying tribute to Super Mario Bros. It's no wonder Wart's surprise visit in Nintendo's recruitment book has Mario fans talking. Wart's domain, Subcon, is also practically a no-show in modern Mario mythos. In fact, one of his best-known cameos is as an NPC in The Legend of Zelda: Link's Awakening. Nintendo Recruitment Book pictures including Wart, Spike, Daisy, Pauline, Donkey Kong, Wiggler, and more! /T97HFVubjj- Japanese Nintendo January 12, 2020ĭespite being the villain of a mainline Super Mario game, Wart very rarely makes appearances in other Mario titles.
On one of the pages, we see the usurper King of Subcon chatting with Princess Daisy over the telephone. It's all very cute (minus Bowser Jr.'s violence), but there's an interesting appearance in the book that's generated a bit of buzz: Wart, the main bad guy in 1988's Super Mario Bros. is off in some corner smashing the hell out of his minions. 2020's recently distributed book is particularly fun because it features original watercolor illustrations of Nintendo characters at "work." We get to see Wiggler help Pauline and Luigi compose music while Donkey Kong tries his best at providing customer service at a call center. Nintendo's recruitment books highlight the company's history, outlines its properties, and tries to entice young developers into entering the fold. When I think of people applying to work at Nintendo of Japan, I think of Eric Andre clutching the gates of the 2016 Democratic National Convention while screaming "Let me in! Let me innnnn!" There's no way a company like Nintendo is hurting for potential employees, which is why I'm impressed it goes the extra mile with its annual recruitment books.
