If Allen was on that show with that question he would say an answer not on the list.

Is this where I come to vote? I would say that during the manufacturing process he was called Jumpman, but during the time of release and distribution, he was already being called Mario. So, I don't know what the question was specifically, but he was called Jumpman first, and then Mario rather early on.

I still don't like the wording of the question. My written answer is my final word on the subject. lol

Patrick Scott Patterson: "Pretty neat... but it still bugs me that so many people claim Mario was called Jumpman when Donkey Kong was released. Not true... as can be seen on the very sales flyer that introduced the game."

Any response from those that herald that he was originally called Jumpman?

Mine: Read the instruction sticker on the machine.
