History[]
SMG4: Mario Opens a Pizza Shop[]
In Peppino's pizza place, Mario crawls towards Peppino whilst he's spinning around on toppings and made a pizza. Mario was curious and ordered 50 Pizzas. They glared at each other but realized that they both found another pizza lover and do a montage of how much they love pizza. Mario showed Peppino a sexy pizza guy image on his tablet, in which he gives it an A-rank, all while Luigi asks the viewers what just happened.
Mario And Peppino shook their hands and Peppino grabbed 50 pizza boxes, then Mario grabbed big coins and threw his coins on Peppino's face. Peppino gave Mario 50 pizza boxes and Mario walked out of his restaurant.
Later, Mario decided to make his own restaurant. Luigi decides to try Mario's food. He chews it uncomfortably but is then suddenly choked by Peppino and thrown on the wall. Peppino is angry that Mario put his shop next to Peppino's and then says that it is not good for business. Mario reacts to this by flipping him off. Peppino slams the doors, lets out his infamous scream and leaves. Mario continues his business and goes on his phone. Luigi asks what he is doing to which it shows that Mario is ordering 3 million pizzas from Pizza Hut.
Customers start to come into the pizzeria and Mario and Luigi start handing out the pizzas. The customers are very satisfied with the pizza, not knowing that it’s not made by Mario, and keep buying more; however, Peppino decides to stop it by destroying the place. Mario gets very angry and attacks the chef with one of the “pizzas” he gave Luigi, who chokes on it. He then screams and tears Mario’s pizzeria to the ground. Mario is infuriated and chases Peppino, who flies away on a pizza hoverboard while recreating the Pizza Tower in-game intro.
Mario enters the tower and catches up with Peppino, who decides to start Pizza Time while taunting him and flying away. Mario gets angry and starts chasing after him. He starts going through the level, even getting a Cheese Toppin, which is eaten after.
A long time after the segment and getting an A-Rank for the level, Mario enters an arena, where he finds Peppino watching Cocomelon's Pasta song, Peppino notices Mario and gets ready to fight. Mario says that he killed pizza, calling him a son of a bitch. Peppino then taunts, with Mario then lunging on Peppino and punching him in face, Peppino then kicks him and Mach-runs at him, uppercutting and super jumping, punching Mario's balls, much to the plumber's agony. Mario then spits out Pizzahead, who was controlling Pizzaface before Mario ate the latter. Peppino then decapitates Pizzahead and throws him at Mario. Mario then starts spinning to avoid Pizzahead's head. Peppino begins spinning too, beginning a Beyblade-like battle astonishing a crowd.
Mario then stops Peppino's spin attack and spins into him Peppino. Infuriated, Peppino transforms into Fake Peppino, screaming and searching for Mario, Fake Peppino then spots Gustavo, who looked a lot like Mario. Gustavo then fell to void after an attack from the chef impostor. Mario gets down low to get away from him, but bumps into Fake Peppino's legs. Fake Peppino stares at him before whipping out a gun, pointing it at Mario. Mario closes his eyes and starts taunting. Fake Peppino notices and turns into normal Peppino. Mario tells him that if he is going to die, he's going to do so with style. Peppino and Mario then start to taunt more and more, gathering the bosses.
Mario and Peppino finally get exhausted from taunting excessively. They look at each other. Peppino saying that Mario's pizza-fu is good, along with Mario saying the same thing. Then they both give each other an apologetic hug. Mario thinks he met someone that understands him, Peppino saying they are not so different. Mario then says that there might be a way for Peppino and him to work together, spawning an idea. Peppino Pizza now has additional text saying "+ mayro". Mario and Peppino are both rolling two pizzas with their fingers, and everyone is getting happy, then Pizzaface, despite being eaten by Mario, appears in front of them, saying the pizza is here. Everyone goes silent, including Mario and Peppino. After some staring, Mario pulls out a handgun while Peppino pulls out a shotgun, and then in unison, they shoot Pizzaface.
Personality[]
Peppino is quick to anger, as is shown several times throughout SMG4: Mario Opens A Pizza Shop. He has a great love for pizza as well as his business, and takes threats to his business extremely seriously, to the point of crashing a bulldozer into competitor's restaurants (noting that they're "not good for business") and crushing and nearly killing its customers and destroying the property in a blind rage. He is prone to freaking out, threatening and screaming at those who make the mistake of angering him.
However, he is perfectly willing to peacefully work with those who also have a love for pizza, so long as they don't compete with him, and he is capable of being very friendly with those who share his passion for pizza. His love of pizza is obsessive, spending most of his free time watching pizza content on his television and screaming passionately at it when he's not actively making pizza. Peppino is very proud of his style, and refuses to back down against anybody who claims to have a better style than his.
When pushed to his limit, he transforms into Fake Peppino, gaining a scary look in his eyes and extended limbs. When this happens, he becomes even more violent, not being above committing murder in the name of pizza. However, he can be easily confused or shocked out of this form.
