About Mario's design... I can say that they put a cap on him because they didn't know how to animate his hair when it jumped.

He saw the Mountain silent rise
where twilight lies upon the knees
of Valinor, and Eldamar
beheld afar beyond the seas.

What is the reasoning behind the original design of Mario? - worth 150

Well, the animation was so limited back then, that the programmers couldn't animate his movement without making his arms invisible, so they gave him a solid colored shirt and overalls to fix it. Also, they didn't have the space to give him a mouth or ears, and they could not animate hair, which resulted in Mario getting a moustache, sideburns, and a cap to bypass these problems.EDIT: Also, I think the game designer said he didn't want to draw hair, so that's why he got the cap.
