Mario is a 30 year old culural touchstone that is well known by people who have never played a Nintendo game.
I don't see why we need to give Nintendo the exclusive right control the use of Mario for the next 65 years. That duration of control is absolutely not necessary for society to function.
Society would function just fine of the copyright on mario had expired two decades ago.

On the other hand, I kind of like knowing that all sold Mario stuff has some affiliation with Nintendo. I don’t want to deal with thousands of chinese knockoffs.
