Artist's note:
Of course I love the new item in New Super Mario Bros. U Deluxe (good game, terrible name). Toadette is adorable and only gets better each game she is in, and the Super Crown is just the kind of combination of cuteness and weird factor that I love in Mario games. The resemblance to my Princess Mario story line is uncanny, but as much as I'd like to think someone at Nintendo is reading my work, I'm certain that its unrelated. I've read in the past that Miyamoto wanted to include Princess Peach as a character in NSMB but didn't want the characters to control differently from one another. I'm guessing this is a work around for that.
