Amazing, I found a site with pictures of the inside pages
http://catfish.it.cx/trsrockin/trsrockin.com/nintendo_sticker_activity.html

First time I see a sticker album/activity book hybrid, pretty cool.

There was also this Nintendo sticker album from 1992, ever collected stickers from this one?

>>2876387
haha, that's where I was pulling the images from.

Haven't seen the sticker book you posted before.

That album you posted has some pretty interesting art.

I don't think I've seen those before, and they look like official Miyamoto art, although I'm not sure.

I'll post pics of this other album in a minute.

As long as it's licensed it's official.

I actually meant to make this thread not only about art, but also merchandise in general, so that's perfectly fine, even if the art isn't that good.

Here's some real official art, drawn by Yoichi Kotabe.

>>2876394
>official Miyamoto art
The only official art Miyamoto ever did for Mario was in the earlier games up to the boxart for the Famicom Super Mario 1. From Super Mario 2 (the FCD version) and onward, they were done by Yoichi Kotabe.

Super Mario RPG puzzle. Notable for being a rare depiction of the characters in 2D.

That's really nice anon, I love Kotabe's style with these thick, defined outlines. He's a great designer. If you have more please do share!

Precisely why I said I think that looks like Miyamoto art, the picture on the right there looks similar to the SMB1 japanese/european boxart, but I've never seen it before so maybe it's by somebody else imitating that style and not Miyamoto, I'd like to know.

another puzzle

This is probably a pretty stupid question but when and why did Mario reverse the colors of his shirt and overalls? He had a blue shirt which became red and red overalls which became blue.

Luigi, what's wrong with your ass?
Mario, why are you taller than Luigi?

>>2877534
The same reason the Alphabet goes A, B but on the NES controller it goes B, A

GETTCHA HURRY NOW

Oh shit, I think I saw these weird "high detail" amiibo things at the store and one of the Mario figures looked exactly like this. I should pick that up.

Was Mario originally going to have a Cowboy Suit in Mario 3?
