If you’ve been watching the show this week, you’ve probably noticed the nifty stained glass backdrop that appears during O’Brien’s opening monologue. It seems the design may have been inspired by elements from the Super Mario Bros. video game series.

I don’t know, I think it’s way, way too similar to be a coincidence. You have a look and decide:conanbackdrop.jpg

Designed for kids ages five to 95, the revolutionary Nintendo Wii isn’t just a next-generation system it’s an all-generation system.
