YouTube celebrates over 100-billion views of Super Mario Bros. content, which consists of more than 2 million channels uploading Mario videos every 20 seconds. For those who weren’t around or don’t remember, one of the first Nintendo videos to go viral was of a blindfolded musician playing a Super Mario medley on the piano.
Whether it be Japan’s Hikakin, best known for a viral beatboxing video featuring the Mario theme song or darbian, one of the original speedrunners, there have been countless Mario-related videos that contributed to those 100+ billion views since 2005. Currently, there are more than 2,000 channels dedicated exclusively to Mario content.
