The Super Mario Bros. 2 Commercial Stars Penelope and Monica Cruz
Meghan Young — August 22, 2012 — Tech
The Super Mario Bros. 2 commercial is straight out of a gamer's fantasy, boy or girl. It stars sisters Penelope and Monica Cruz as they get competitive over the game. Sexily lounging on a couch in a stunning home, Penelope is soon joined by her younger sister, who challenges her to a game. Never has a game of Super Mario been so adorable and sexy at the same time.
Created specifically to market the video game on Nintendo 3DS and Nintendo 3DS XL, the Super Mario Bros. 2 commercial ends in a way that is both typical and atypical. The loser, in this case Penelope, is resigned to dress up as Super Mario and parade herself in front of a grocery store.
