Mario was an Italian-American carpenter from Brooklyn
Donkey Kong was originally an ape that escaped from the zoo
Obviously your point still stands, but only because the original Donkey Kong came out in July 1981. Mario is 26, so he would have been born in 1954/1955. He'd be 70 today if he aged in real time. But everyone in the early 80s was as hairy as DK.
