Shigeru Miyamoto (Japanese: 宮本 茂, Hepburn: Miyamoto Shigeru, born November 16, 1952) is a Japanese video game designer, producer and game director at Nintendo, where he has served as one of its representative directors as an executive since 2002. Widely regarded as one of the most accomplished and influential designers in video games, he is the creator of some of the most acclaimed and best-selling game franchises of all time, including Mario, The Legend of Zelda, Donkey Kong, Star Fox and Pikmin. More than 1 billion copies of games featuring franchises created by Miyamoto have been sold. Born in Sonobe, Kyoto, Miyamoto graduated from Kanazawa Municipal College of Industrial Arts. He initially sought a career as a manga artist until developing an interest in video games. With the help of his father, he joined Nintendo in 1977 after impressing the president, Hiroshi Yamauchi, with his toys. He helped create art for the arcade game and was later tasked with designing a new one, leading to the 1981 game Donkey Kong. Miyamoto's games Super Mario Bros. (1985) and The Legend of Zelda (1986) helped the Nintendo Entertainment System dominate the console game market. His games have been flagships of every Nintendo video game console, from the arcade machines of the late 1970s to the present day. He managed Nintendo's Entertainment Analysis & Development software division, which developed many Nintendo games. He played an essential role in creating other influential games such as Pokémon Red and Blue (1996) and Metroid Prime (2002). Following the death of Nintendo president Satoru Iwata in July 2015, Miyamoto became acting president alongside Genyo Takeda until he was formally appointed "Creative Fellow" a few months later.

The movie opens with Mario, Luigi, Peach, Daisy and the Toads in the castle eating a cake. Everything is going perfectly until they are attacked by Kamek, who is turning the inhabitants of the mushroom kingdom into Goombas, Mario and Luigi, as heroes of the story, decide to fight against Kamek. By defeating him they manage to de-transform Toadette (who will have more importance in the sequel). Kamek, apparently dying, reveals to them that a Major danger is approaching, that Princess Peach was in danger. At that moment two parakoopas grab Peach and lead her to Bowser's castle (Mario and Luigi know that because they have faced him before). Our heroes undertake the adventure. On the way to Bowser's castle, some Koopalings (separately), Piranha plants, Goombas and Koopas would appear. When fighting against them, the heroes receive mysterious supports, (fire plants, Tanuki leaves, etc.). When they are at the entrance to Bowser's castle, the identity of those who had been mysteriously helping them is revealed, they were Rosalina and Luma. Rosalina gives each one a gift, Mario a white egg with green polka dots and Luigi a proton backpack (in addition to continuing to help them with the previous reinforcements). Upon entering they fight the rest of the Koopalings and finally, they fight Bowser in an epic battle. After that they rescue Peach and go back to eating cake with the Toads.
