Talk:Super Mario Bros.: Peach-hime Kyushutsu Dai Sakusen! (1986 anime film)/@comment-33300401-20140810111843/@comment-33300401-20140810185454

About SuperMuppetMasters theory:

That is a good theory, releasing a movie so soon after the game in America would be a little silly and come off as the company trying too hard to promote the character. But this does lead to the question, why wasn't it released a few years later (eg. 1989 or 1990) when Mario mania did hit USA. It is after all common for an English Dub of an anime to premiere a year or a number of years after the original.

What also bothers me is that the Super Mario Amada Series (another Mario Anime) was also never released?

The Movie's product placement:

Yes the one scene of product placement is horrible (but funny at the same time). It goes like this:

Mario is the middle of a battle with Bowser and is about to consume a Super Mushroom to take down the Koopa King once and for all. Just as he's about to eat it Ramen Noodles appear out of nowhere and Mario eats them instead and tells the audience:

Mario: Ramen Noodles, they're delicious

This, of course, leads to him being beaten up by Bowser.

Kind of a bizarre advertisement.
