Suara.com – Mario Segale, the man behind the video game Super Mario, has died at 84 years old. Segale is a successful Italian-American real estate developer from the US state of Washington.
In the 1980s, he rented a warehouse to Nintendo of America, who decided to give him his name.
Segale joked in the Seattle Times in 1993 that he was "still waiting for a royalty check".
Super Mario originally called Jumpman until Nintendo decided to give him the exact name.
Segale told Minoru Arakawa the task of preparing Nintendo of America, which indicated that the video game bore his name.
According to the news of his death, Segale is known for his humility and only wants to be known for what he has achieved in his life. He left his wife, Donna, four children and nine grandchildren.
The Mario series is often cited as the most successful video game of all time. The latest plumber's adventure, Super Mario Odyssey, is currently the best selling game on the new Nintendo Switch console and has sold over 12 million copies. [BBC]
