Super Mario Maker is out in just a couple days (I liked it) and to celebrate, Gentry Boeckel is at it again. He's following up his Zelda item infographic with one that exhaustively charts the creation and history of Super Mario. Seriously, the detail and trivia packed into this thing gave even an old-hand Nintendo guy like me a run for my money.
If you need a break from making Mario levels, check this infographic out for inspiration.
