In the title screen of Super Mario 64, when the player is grabbing Mario's face, the hand is actually grabbing pink diamonds that act as control points. The diamonds are always present, but their opacity is simply set to 0. Here, the reality of the interaction is made visible.

@MarioBrothBlog Wait, is this saying you can grab Mario’s eyes? I’ve never tried that, only his nose, mouth, mustache, ears and hat

@MarioBrothBlog We’ve actually all got little pink diamonds inside us all faces too, it’s just that they’re only visible to those family members who pinch their relatives faces for whatever reason

@MarioBrothBlog That explains why the hands snap to a specific spot when you grab a part

@MarioBrothBlog Chaos chaos

@MarioBrothBlog Now we just need clubs and spades.

@MarioBrothBlog trying to mess with mario’s face in 3DAS was damn near impossible and probably was the reason why the game was so hated

@MarioBrothBlog This wasn't meant to be seen

@MarioBrothBlog Control points.

@MarioBrothBlog So it's something like this?

@MarioBrothBlog Mario and his pink diamond goatee

@MarioBrothBlog mario’s steven universe cosplay looks great

@MarioBrothBlog Pink diamond

@MarioBrothBlog Does it work the same way in Bowsers Face Lift in Mario Party and Mario Party 2?

@MarioBrothBlog This ruins the illusion

@MarioBrothBlog Get you a man who lets you grab his diamonds.

@MarioBrothBlog Thats a him. Mario. We are pulling his real face, and you can't convince me otherwise.

@MarioBrothBlog this ruined my life

@MarioBrothBlog Wasn't this in the manual?

@MarioBrothBlog Mario won the battle, but Culex won the war.

@MarioBrothBlog he ned docer?

@MarioBrothBlog That's funny that his nose sticks out over the diamond

@MarioBrothBlog This is a bit disturbing

@MarioBrothBlog In truth, we all have invisible pink diamonds all over our bodies. You just need enough Insight to see them.

@MarioBrothBlog Snapchat Filter 64

@MarioBrothBlog @giles I think this man did it.

@MarioBrothBlog Is that how it also works with the mario party mini game

@MarioBrothBlog My whole childhood was a lie

@MarioBrothBlog I've wondered for years

@MarioBrothBlog This would then be shamelessly stolen in the Sims 4
