For those of you who don’t get it, this is a mystery block from the Mario/Super Mario/Mario Brothers video game. In the game they contain prizes like coins or different items that give Mario special powers.
“Designed in Japan made in Italy” is probably a reference to the facts that the game was designed by Nintendo in Japan and the heroes Mario and his brother Luigi are Italian
Reminds me of an old SNL sketch with Steve Martin and Bill Murray, where two hicks see something they can’t identify and keep repeating ‘what the h*ll is that ?’
It’s just a placeholder for a character or emoji that your device doesn’t recognize or can’t display. It’s a computer error. You must remember, the land of B.C. is just a computer simulation of life. If you see one of these floating about in the real world, you should be worried. You may not be real at all !!!
To be, or not to be, that is the question: Whether ’tis nobler in the mind to suffer. The slings and arrows of outrageous fortune … with which we octogenarians are all too familiar.
I asked my son about this, so he turned on my Super Nintendo console and played one of the many Mario Bros. games that are pre-loaded on it. One of these days I might actually play the game myself. I’m better with Atari games.

It can’t be Italian. It doesn’t have the word “FRA-GI-LE” on it.
