Which do you think is canon? SM64 or SM64DS?
- Thread starter KPH2293
- Start date
Any remake is considered more canonical in my book. Nintendo changed the game they intended it to be from the start.

I go with both, taking out and replacing events and things from both games. Having only one person adventuring at a time, no metal/invisibility caps, the rabbits, ect.
The exact date at which the game happened is another factor. Wario hasn't been the best and most trusted person.... ever, and his recruitment raises questions.

I voted SM64DS, but I also think they added some different stuff to the story. People don't have "HP". A good example of is this: http://fanstuff.hrwiki.org/index.php/Stinkoman_20X6:_Reloaded. A comic telling the story of a videogame and seeing if you can find the obvious differences that makes bosses have "three hits" or whatever.
I agree with Spike. SM64 just seems like a more canonical game.

Wait a minute. I agree with son of sons that remakes are more canonical, BUT I do'nt think SM64DS is a remake. I think that 64DS hapenns oh... a year or 2 AFTER 64. How else do you explain 50 new stars, and 3 new playable characters?
Asking why things are different in remakes is kind of moot; the creators are basicly retelling the game, eliminating old story points and replacing them; just because Robirdo was in Super Mario Advance and not Super Mario Bros. 2 doesn't mean its an entirely new adventure; just because there are more levels in Super Mariuo Advance 3 doesn't mean its an entirely new adventure independant of Yoshi's Island.

Yes Sir Grodus, a few differences do not make a new game. But SM64DS has TONS of BIG differences.

Yummy spam, yay.
Are you enjoying your spamwhich? Anyway, why would Bowser try the same scheme over again and expect to win?
I think Bowser is intelligent, witty, and poetic. Other Mario characters are just too dumb to understand him. As Bowser says in SMRPG:
"Like the moon over
The day, my brains and brawn, go
Wasted on these fools."

Wasted on these fools."
Although he can be kind of oafish and a bit crude at times. The Super Mario Bros. movie version of Bowser was probably the evilest and perhaps smartest of all Bowser's versions I think.
He did perform a significant military coup de tat of the Mushroom Kingdom in SMB. If Peach did not have the power to undo Bowser's spell, the fate of the Mushroom Kingdom would have been sealed. Also, Bowser conquered much of the Mushroom World in SMB3 - a tremendous feat to say the least. Some may say this was his biggest military victory.
Anybody else notice Bowser currently seems to be being sidelined, I mean, he's rarely the main villain anymore, reduced to mostly being a boss instead of a boss-of-game.
And will get back on topic... later.
