I found this link particularly interesting: Another great example-also brand-new to me-comes from another new friend, Don Hauptman who asks in the very first line of his book, Cruel and Unusual Puns: "Have you heard about the inner-city video game called Super Barrio Mothers?" As with all examples of implied chiasmus, half the fun comes from figuring out what's being reversed, and the rest from admiring the creativity involved in crafting the observation in the first place. (For the one or two of you out there who may be in the dark about this one, it's based on a popular video game called Super Mario Brothers). www.flyingomelette.com

Seems like he may have been intentionally looking for video game title puns for that book and chose that one because it's the most recognizable name. www.flyingomelette.com
