In Super Paper Mario, a Nintendo DS Lite-shaped computer called the Dining Specializer can be found in the restaurants in Flipside and Flopside. When it is turned on, the top screen displays a logo, but in-game, the screen is too small to see it clearly. Below is the texture used for the logo. It’s a reference to the game’s developer, Intelligent Systems.
