One of my students has a theory that Super Mario Bros. is actually based on the Ramayana: the hero and his brother travel to a far-away land to rescue a princess from an evil demon who is nearly impossible to kill. They also have help from a devoted animal sidekick.

Also some Journey to the West vibes à la Xuanzang. Supposedly, Bowser is based on the Ox Demon King (牛魔王).
