Ok. If you recall the game theory vid, you'll remember that he talked about this image from the storybook http://www.mariowiki.com/images/4/4e/Ch7_5.png Showing someone in a red hat standing next to someone in a green hat with the little girl riding the sled.

My theory is that at first, they all lived together as kids, then later moved from home when Rosalina went missing. One reason that helps that claim, is Luigi's mansion.

Remember how in the begining Luigi recieved a letter saying that he won a mansion, then he called Mario on the phone and told him about it. Now, knowing Mario, why would he suddenly dash towards a mysterious mansion in that location at night? Heck, how did he even find it without the map in the dark? o.o

The answer? He must have known the area very well, like say, he grew up in it. Also, Rosalina was seen holding a telescope, a lot like the one in the Luigi's mansions series. Also, after the illusion of the mansion faded, in many future games a ruined mansion can be seen around the same area as the one the ghosts made as an illusion.

My guess is that Mario and Luigi grew up in or nearby the mansion with their sister Rosalina and when Mario heard about the mansion Luigi won, he knew that the only one there was left to ruin, thus sparking his curiosity about why the mansion was up for sale.

Thoughts on my theory? :)
