Hotel Mario

Hotel Mario is a is a puzzle game that was created by Philips Media for the CD-i. Philips Media had acquired the rights to produce Mario and The Legend of Zelda games after initial plans to make a CD-ROM add-on for the Super Nintendo fell through. Released in 1994 to little fanfare, the game did very poorly due to a lack of interest in the CD-i system. The game received very poor reviews as well. The games resulting from the license did not gain much success, with Hotel Mario being regarded as one of the worst Mario games.

Controversy
These Full Motion Videos, however, are frowned upon by the Mario community for containing what is considered to be some of the worst scripting, drawing, animation, and voice acting yet seen in a video game. And as mentioned, the gameplay was not up to series standards, to the point that the majority of the Mario community totally rejects the Hotel as canonical, something made easier by the fact that these games had nothing to do with Nintendo. The cutscenes have become a staple of "Youtube Poop" viral videos, most notably Mario's "You know what they say, all toasters toast toast", the Luigi's "I hope you made lotsa spaghetti", and Bowser's laugh, due to the surreal animation and lackluster voice acting used throughout the game. Thus, the voice acting was so poor that when Mario said the line "Nice to the princess to invite us over for a picnic, eh Luigi ?", "eh luigi ?" it soud like he was saying "gay Luigi ?", this line was also commonly used for Youtube Poops.
