Top: Official artwork released by Nintendo for Dr. Mario on the NES. The artwork is cut off; this version of it has for a long time been assumed to be the only version, with no uncropped full drawing existing.

Middle: A 1995 manga discusses what the full image could have looked like, noting the discrepancy between Dr. Mario’s and Nurse Peach’s heights in the image compared to their usual heights and hypothesizing that one of the characters’ legs would need to be the wrong length.

Bottom: Twitter.com user “sayokoskatti“ has discovered a full version of the artwork in an obscure information brochure for proper care and cleaning of the Nintendo Famicom Disk System. While Dr. Mario appears to be sitting on a stool here, explaining the inconsistent heights, looking closely at the original cropped artwork, he is depicted standing instead.

Since the full version does not entirely match the cropped version, there is no clear solution to the discrepancy. Should additional versions of the artwork surface, I will post updates on the situation.

“If a person can’t get out of bed, something is making them exhausted. If a student isn’t writing papers, there’s some aspect of the assignment that they can’t do without help. If an employee misses deadlines constantly, something is making organization and deadline-meeting difficult. Even if a person is actively choosing to self-sabotage, there’s a reason for it — some fear they’re working through, some need not being met, a lack of self-esteem being expressed. People do not choose to fail or disappoint. No one wants to feel incapable, apathetic, or ineffective. If you look at a person’s action (or inaction) and see only laziness, you are missing key details. There is always an explanation. There are always barriers. Just because you can’t see them, or don’t view them as legitimate, doesn’t mean they’re not there. Look harder. Maybe you weren’t always able to look at human behavior this way. That’s okay. Now you are. Give it a try.”

— “Laziness Does Not Exist” by E Price on Medium

(And a footnote I didn’t see explicitly covered in the article: laziness still doesn’t exist when it is you yourself making no progress and not knowing why. You deserve that respect and consideration, too, even from yourself.)
