New York Times lists Mario and Luigi as janitors, prints correction
Coming from the NY Times...
An obituary on Sept. 20 about Hiroshi Yamauchi, the longtime president of Nintendo, included a quotation from a 1988 New York Times article that inaccurately described the Nintendo video game Super Mario Bros. 2. The brothers Mario and Luigi, who appear in this and other Nintendo games, are plumbers, not janitors.
The problem was, the Yamauchi article sourced another NY Times article about Mario and Luigi...from 1988.
