* AnalogHorror: The main gimmick of the episode: Mario finds a series of spooky [=VHS=] tapes that start out perfectly normal but take an ominous turn towards the end, which, when viewed together, paint a picture of Luigi getting taken over by a cursed UsefulNotes/PhilipsCDi console. The concept is parodied when Mario uses the most terrifying VHS of all to save the day, an unmodified copy of the live action ''Film/SuperMarioBros1993'' movie.
