The 18 weirdest things I've seen in the insanely weird new Mario game

I never thought I'd see a Goomba bidet in the moat outside of Princess Peach's castle, but here we are.

The insane-looking image above is pulled from the latest Mario game to grace Nintendo's Switch: "Mario + Rabbids: Kingdom Battle." The game is fantastic — check out our full review right here — but its standout characteristic is how absurd it is at every possible moment. 

Part of that is due to its ridiculous premise, which combines the anarchic world of Raving Rabbids with the already surreal and fantastical world of Super Mario. And another part is sheer will of the game's developer, French game company Ubisoft. Someone or, more likely, several someones spent a great deal of time crafting this shrine to a Rabbid using the bathroom.

I've spent over 20 hours with "Mario + Rabbids: Kingdom Battle," and I've seen some truly bizarre things. Allow me to share them with you.

REVIEW: "Mario + Rabbids: Kingdom Battle" for the Nintendo Switch

Up front, the very nature of this game is going to produce strange imagery. In the plot setup for the game, several Rabbids are turned into hybrids of themselves and Super Mario characters. They are literally called names like "Rabbid Mario" and "Rabbid Peach." They look ridiculous.

How did Rabbids get turned into hybrid Mario characters? By invading a Nintendo superfan's office/living room and dressing up as those characters, then...well, it's complicated.

The Rabbids use a time-traveling clothes washing machine to get around. Here they are arriving in the office/living room of the Nintendo superfan.
