Tkkt, it's called humor.While Mario stamps are indeed awesome, I'm more of a Metroid man myself.Still, it's damn cool that Nintendo is getting some official notice. We need cooler stamps in the US.
Those stamps are not offered by Japan post. They are offered by a private company. Also, don't be tempted to do the math 80 yen for 10 stamps 800 yen or 7.50$. It actually costs 3,500 yen for 10 stamps so 30$. Much less interesting.

That's awesome, but I wish they used more modern pictures of Mario.

It affected so much more than just the video game industry, though. Mario became a cultural icon.
