Miyamoto began his career with the idea he was going to be a toy maker for Nintendo, but he soon became one of the most famous video game designers in the world for the company instead. He created characters who have managed to stay relevant 30 years later in an ever-changing industry. One of his original characters may have had a few dark secrets Nintendo just couldn’t keep under wraps forever.
Pauline claimed Mario’s heart well before Peach ever entered the picture and she did so by getting kidnapped. Donkey Kong was the lovestruck ape who believed Pauline was the most beautiful woman he had ever laid eyes on so he had to have her for himself. Of course, Jumpman, aka Mario, couldn’t let his leading lady be taken so easily.
There’s also the fan theory which places Pauline and Jumpman as Mario and Luigi’s parents. We actually want to believe this one as true. After all, why does Mario have an entirely new enemy to battle and a new damsel in distress to save? It only makes sense for this theory to be true.
Pauline was based off of Olive Oyl from Popeye. It wasn’t because Miyamoto had an obsession with the classic cartoon, but it was simply due to the fact that he was supposed to be working on an arcade game with Popeye as the main character. It turned out it would take a few years for Nintendo to acquire the rights so, instead of having all his hard work go to waste, he changed the story and the characters around.
