Does Every Jersey Shore Cast Member Have a Super Mario Counterpart?

Jersey Shore has always been a tubular adventure with two-dimensional heroes. But closer inspection proves it has several parallels to the original tubular adventurer, Super Mario (and all of his friends and foes). Join us as GTL goes NES.

The Situation -- Koopa Troopa
