Since its release, Fortnite\u2018s in-game shop has been an absolute powerhouse for Epic Games, as numerous crossovers and collabs let players live out their wildest dreams. For example, Chapter 5 Season 1 introduced Peter Griffin and Ernie the Giant Chicken, rivals now turned party members, depending on what side of the lobby you\u2019re on. Given the success of said crossovers, players have taken it upon themselves to create their own concepts, such as JoJo\u2019s Bizarre Adventure, Despicable Me, and SpongeBob. In line with that sentiment, one player shared their concept for Super Mario, leaving Nintendo fans hoping the publisher will pull the plug. Fortnite player reveals Mario Bros concept To date, Nintendo\u2019s been awfully absent from the Fortnite madness, while PlayStation and Xbox have brought over numerous characters to the game. That said, that hasn\u2019t stopped players from coming up with Nintendo-inspired concepts, including Twitter\/X user JriftJA\u2019s Super Mario creation. JriftJA took quite a bit of time with their creation, featuring Mario, Luigi, and Princesses Peach and Daisy. The four characters boast their own Gliders and Backbling, each having well-thought-out descriptions and references to icons from the series, such as the F.L.U.D.D. from Super Mario Sunshine or Toad. \ud83e\udde2[Skins]\ud83d\udc51 \u2014 Jrift (@JriftJA) January 28, 2024 Mario: It\u2019s-a me!

Safe to say, there was a bit of criticism with the Super Mario concept, notably since the artist had to upscale each character to fit the bill. However, overall reception was positive with players sharing who they\u2019d like to see, granted Nintendo changes its stance. \u201cI pray for the day we get Samus or Link in-game, eventually Nintendo has to loosen up.. right,\u201d one player said, while another hoped Wario would join, albeit with the Giant Chicken proportions.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Fortnite x Super Mario crossover concept has players ready for Nintendo collaborations Twitter\/X: JriftJAFortnite and Nintendo collabs are nonexistent in-game, and this concept art for Super Mario has fans wanting Nintendo to change its mind.
