Yoshi likes to share or just watch?), but Activision’s gadget also gives us other pearls, like the “appreciation for” the fact that Mario and Luigi are Italian, which will make them less Consistent with the scale reference model, as well as for the age of the characters, apparently very varied, and for Mario’s physique, which is short and round.
