These images of Mario and Peach in traditional Japanese dress were used at the Kyoto Cross Media Experience. The Kyoto Cross Media Experience (part of the Japan International Contents Festival series, which features a number of events aimed at showcasing Japanese culture) is usually not attended by Nintendo. However this year they set up a booth with download demos and a kiosk about the history of Nintendo gaming (noticeably absent, the Virtual Boy, the red haired step child of the Nintendo family).
Nothing really of note happened at the event, but its nice to see our pals get some fresh skivvies. Hit the jump for a shot of Mario cartin’ Peach around on a rickshaw.
