<h2>About</h2>
<p><strong>Automatic Mario videos</strong> are game-play footage of customized <a href="http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Mod_(computer_gaming)"><span class="caps">MOD</span></a> levels from Nintendo’s classic franchise <a href="http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Super_Mario"><em>Super Mario World</em></a>. Usually created by fans using Super Mario <span class="caps">ROM</span> editors, gameplay in Auto-Mario MODs is seamlessly prearranged by the design of each level and rarely requires input from the player. However, there are other types of Super Mario <span class="caps">MOD</span> levels that can be played manually. In short, they’re fan-made videos created for the sake of entertainment, sometimes accompanied by anime music that synchs up with the sound effects in the game (see below for examples).</p>
<h2>Origin</h2>

<ul>
<li>The earliest example of Automatic Mario on YouTube can be traced back to 2007, titled "Mario vs. Donkey Kong 2 March of the Minis! Custom-made Stage: Little Mini Mario (マリオVSドンキーコング２ ミニミニ大行進！ 自作ステージ: じどうミニマリオ) and uploaded by a user named <a href="http://www.youtube.com/user/sonomamario">sonomamario</a>. The video shows Mini-Mario (a toy version of Mario featured in <a href="http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Mario_vs_Donkey_Kong_2">Mario vs. Donkey Kong 2</a>) moving across the stage and completing the level with the aid of various tools and barriers alone.</li>

<ul>
<li>While NND’s wiki entry gives credit to fan bases overseas for development of early Super Mario MODs, Auto-Mario videos became immensely popular on Nico Nico Douga. The earliest version of Auto-Mario debuted on <span class="caps">NND</span> on June 9, 2007 and its populary peaked during early 2008.</li>
</ul>
<h2>Derivatives</h2>
<p>There are other variations of Auto-Mario, including Hold-B jump mode or synchronized with music using Auto-Mario Sequencer. *[<span class="caps">NEED</span> <span class="caps">VIDEOS</span>]</p>
<h2>May 13, 2008: X-Day on Nico Nico Douga</h2>
<p>To many <span class="caps">NND</span> users’ dismay, majority of Mario-related content were bulk-deleted on account of copyright infringement in May 2008. This incident became known as “Auto-Mario Wipeout” or “X Day” among <span class="caps">NND</span> users who protested this decision. But as it is often the case with other video-sharing communities, most of these videos have been restored by other users since then.</p>
<h2>Pre-music Synchronization</h2>
<p>Soon after the initial uploads, many videos came to follow it on Nico Nico Douga and Youtube.</p>
