Super Mario Bros. Wonder isn’t even out yet but with a streetdate broken that means loose copies are out in the wild and, naturally, the game has been dumped online.

Wonder’s first notable mod is colorful to say the least. As Kotaku has found, hackers have altered game files to easily allow the game’s Talking Flowers to say anything they want, even swapping out the audio to complete the effect.
Before checking out the clips below, be sure you’re ready for some spicy language!
