Flowers and chocolate always make a girl blush and glow. But what if you could give — or receive — an item on a first date or Valentine’s Day that was really super, as in Super Mario Bros. awesome. Would you replace traditional flowers with a fire flower or instead proffer a mushroom to get things started off on the right foot? Maybe you would give a Starman at the end of the night to spice things up? Let us know what Nintendo power-up item you would give to your special guy or lady in the poll below.

If you choose other, please tell us what item you would give your date in the comments below.
Easily a Pokeball due to the surprise of what’s inside.
It’s got to be starman. That’s invincibility right there. Push your partner into a train on accident? No worries. She’s invincible. That’s insurance right there. AND it’s shiny & pretty & kawaii so you know it will be loved. Starman. For all your dating needs.
If you’re the type to push your partners into trains, I think you’ve got bigger problems than power-up choices, haha.
I DID say on accident. You never know what might happen. It could start raining & someone on a bike skids towards you. You try to react, but it’s too late. Your date gets run into by the bike & thrown into traffic. But it’s okay… they’re invincible… remember? That Starman sure came in handy.
Mushroom, dudes. It has special side effects…
I thought the pokeball could be used for more nefarious reasons, like, “Ha! Captured your clothes!” or “No kiss? Back to the ball!” *zoop*
I think everyone wants a Baby Ridley.
Yes. Fuzzy little Ridley.
Baby Ridley was crazier than grown up Ridley :(
thinkgeek actually has some of this stuff:

my vote would be starman though because my girl has low self esteem
