​

In the latest Super Mario Odyssey Dev. Talk video, producer Yoshiaki Koizumi weighs in on a question that many have been asking themselves ever since they first played Super Mario Bros on the NES and glanced at the pixels that constructed the crude image of Toad on their TV's. And now, after years of wondering we finally have a definitive answer to that long-pondered question...

Is Toad's upper cranium a mushroom-shaped hat or is it in fact part of his head?

Here's what the producer of Super Mario Odyssey had to say on the subject:

So that, as it turns out is actually Toad's head. I'm going to have to leave it to all of you to figure out exactly how that works out. Maybe there’s something inside…

This goes contrary to the time Toad's mushroom was a hat in The Adventures of Super Mario Bros. 3, but now Mario has also spent time meeting and greeting realistically depicted humans in New Donk City who knows what to believe anymore?

So, do you buy the above or are waiting to hear from series creator Shigeru Miyamoto before making any absolute decisions about the anatomy of strange mushroom men in your favourite video game?

Hell no, it's a fucking hat.
If you don't believe me, do the Ma-
I mean, watch that old cartoon.

 

[SANIC]

Hecc yes finally it is confirmed.

 

[VinsCool]

I always thought his head was indeed a mushroom.
It always made sense to me.

 

[RustInPeace]

Next you're going to tell me that Toad's last name is Mario. Toad Mario. I never ever thought it was part of his head, but given the Mario lore, I buy it, especially since it comes from one of the hoses' mouth.

 

[BlueFox gui]

the fuck
people really think this is a hat?
LMAO

 

[8BitWonder]

Checkmate atheists

 

[Tom Bombadildo]

Where's the "Who gives a shit" option

;O;

I always assumed it was just his head.

 

[smileyhead]

Oh yes. The only important question from the whole video. :ok_hand:

i mean if they still count it back in the super mario bros super show toad would take it off so there its a hat at least

 

[Frexxos]

100% Hat!!! Heretics!

 

[EmanueleBGN]

Hat: "Toad" means "male frog" not "mushroom"

 

[SANIC]

Hat: "Toad" means "male frog" not "mushroom"

It steams from toadstool.

 

[SirNapkin1334]

Well, that just PROVES that The Super Mario Bros Super Show is not canon.

 

[T-hug]

It's his head. Clue's in the name.

 

[KingVamp]

I always thought it was a head. I keep forgetting that the cartoon made it a hat. lol

 

[keven3477]

Something tells me it might be both, maybe it is a mushroom that grows from its head and might have some special organs but it can be removed and put back on while it could also grow a new one.

 

[Jacklack3]

I think it's his head, but not like with flesh in it, but like a marshmallow feel hat stuck to his head or something.

 

[Kourin]

Next question: Does Toad taste like a mushroom?

 

[TotalInsanity4]

I don't believe it, you said only two things but were wrong both times
