The propeller suit introduced in New Super Mario Bros. Wii is nice and all, but it in no way compares to the awesomeness of this:
No, your eyes aren't deceiving you. What you see in the image above is Mario
(and two of his toad-ish companions) in a chicken suit!

The image above was included in a recent Nintendo of Japan recruitment pamphlet, by the way. Additional images from this pamphlet can be found here.

Eeek. I may have to be the voice of reason here...CHICKEN SUIT?! I thought the Bee suit from SMG was going a little far. But a CHICKEN SUIT?! I'm glad they picked the propeller hat. I actually like it the most.
Ha ha! Well, I guess this is a case of "different strokes for different folks," Justin :) I loved the bee suit in SMG! Surprisingly, I don't love the penguin suit in NSMB Wii. That said, I think the chicken suit would have complemented the penguin suit quite well. Plus, it would have made for some hilariously comical situations, I think -- can you imagine four chicken-suited characters on screen at once?
Oh my gosh. That would have been hysterical! Or hey, throw in two chickens and two penguins and call it a fowl day. :-P Ouch.
My mom would love you, Justin, as she's quite punny herself :)
Oh, and I'd love to see two chickens and two penguins fight it out, esp. if the chicken-suited characters made clucking sounds.
