Earlier this week, a number of Mario Kart Live: Home Circuit players reported that they had incurred the wrath of their house cats – in no small part due to the game’s remote-controlled racing karts. Well, it looks like they’re not the only ones going through some kitty trouble!

As of this weekend, even Super Smash Bros. Ultimate director Masahiro Sakurai has shared a photo of his own cat getting in Mario’s way too! Humorously, he likened his pet to a giant monster compared to Mario – stating that “the Demon Beast appears”.
