On October 28th, 2017, the official Nintendo LINE account published an audio file titled “Jump Up, Super Star! Short Version Free Download”. The audio was a 47-second long sample of the background track of the “Jump Up, Super Star!” song from Super Mario Odyssey, with pitch-shifted Toad sound effects overlaid on top of it to resemble singing. The account then revealed that the song was supposed to be sung by Kinopio-kun, the green Toad mascot of the account, and posted a picture of Kinopio-kun dressed as Pauline (seen as the album art on this post). Note that the Nintendo LINE account is operated directly by Nintendo of Japan.

Some readers of Supper Mario Broth may know that I have, since 2017, posted updates regarding my search for “Big Yoshi”, an extremely rare render of a Yoshi character from Super Mario RPG that has been lost in its original form and can only be found in select print publications.

The image above is the clearest scan of the Yoshi in question that currently exists, made by twitter.com user “MDragmire”. If you wish to find out more about my long search for “Big Yoshi”, you are welcome to read this in-depth article on it that I have published on the Supper Mario Broth Patreon:

The Search for “Big Yoshi”

Note that no subscription is required to read the article; it is publicly viewable.

I would like to thank all readers who have joined me in this investigation - and I hope that one day, the final goal of obtaining the original lossless .png file distributed by the development team will be reached.

Thank you very much for reading.
