Why does this cart label ooze so much soul?
Anyone know the original artwork where this comes from?
Also, Mario hack/famiclone general I guess.

Some pirate drew it. It's off model Mario and Luigi in front of the Roman Colliseum with a McDonalds flag.

Are we sure it's a pirate drawing? Mario and Luigi look rather good there, like taken from some official japanese manga maybe.
The Mc Donalds colliseum on the back is also comfy as fuck, I wonder where that drawing is from too. Probably some Mc Donald's thing.

Because "soul" is the Chinese word for the glue they make from the carcasses of people who don't worship the pooh.

Both Mario and Luigi were sourced from Nintendo Comics System/Super Mario Bros. comics published by Valiant in the 90's.

Amazing, thanks a lot anon! I knew it had to be something official.
Funny how they fucked up the perspective by putting Luigi over Mario on the cart label, making Mario seem giant.
I wonder about the McDonald's coliseum, probably from some McD advertising from the early 90s or late 80s, but there's so many of them.

If you think the label is astonishing, wait to boot the game...

I always liked the bizarre proto-Wario version of bootleg Mario
