    Post Any Movie Thought On Your Mind

    Cloudy with a Chance of Meatballs was a childhood inspiration for me as a child, and I just watched the sequel. I'm a little underwhelmed by the failed Flint Lockwood inventions in the sequel. They just don't seem as fun as mistakes. Whereas things like the Flying Car and Ratbirds feel like...

    What Other Major Mario Side Characters Would Be Worthy Of Their Own Franchise?

    Daisy gardening simulator, leading into a franchise of simulation games. Metal Mario rhythm games, starting with the metal genre of course. EDIT: The first game's title is Metal-Head Mario Can Groove!

    post any random Mario thought on your mind

    Weird place to ask a mechanical question, but I got you. However, I can only use Bowser X on such short notice. That shouldn't result in major differences from Bowser aside from damage, but worth noting. Both inflict damage, as you might expect. The stomp flattens out Luigi, but he gets back...

    Proposals

    I think there's some amount of information overload that the talk page proposal system is designed to avoid. There are a lot of Mario games, and not everyone is invested in every one of them. Having the talk page proposals as a bulleted list on the proposals page means users can mostly skip over...

    My Nintendo added a new (single-use) website Platinum Points mission for the first time in at least two years (probably). Weird. https://www.nintendo.com/us/my-nintendo/splatoon-raiders-mission/

    Super Smash Bros. Ultimate

    Please no. Beastball as a special move would be the extremely spammable and effective. There's a reason its an item. If it's nerfed to not be overcentralizing, it likely just ends up a baseball toss with a flowering effect, which is redundant given Vegetable. I feel like pulling a fast one would...

    Homicide Activity - Forum Thread

    I got cold feet. Warehouses are big open spaces that aren't much for walls, so I actually need to come up with a distraction to cover things. Not to mention the sheer number of people makes a pinpoint kill more difficult, and short circuits many "kill with heavy machinery like a forklift' attempts.

    MarioWiki Poll Discussion

    A question aimed directly at the lorehheads. Hmm. I feel that my answer to this question is inherently influenced by how much I dislike how Angry Birds handles this. Angry Birds used to be very similar to Mario's laissez-faire treatment of this, but at this point its a full on multiverse where...

    Are there any spirits you think they chose the wrong character to represent?

    Tempo's spirit battle is dysfunctional in more than a few ways, but one issue is the choice of Fox as the puppet fighter. I think the designers wanted a character with a natural reflector for the "Relfect-Damage Buffed" rule, but any one of the Links is a better fit for the character's design...

    Mario Kart Tour

    I'm not sure that's even entertainable. There has to be at least one badge that cannot be received anymore, right? Unless your definition of 100% is something like "all drivers, karts, and gliders". Which probably still isn't possible from a fresh save file, but more because of the limited time...

    Mario Kart Tour

    RIP you racing high score chaser you... And all of your crazy unique items that will probably never return short of a direct Mario Kart Tour 2. Pour one out for the homies Banana Barrels and Bob-omb Cannon.

    Spirits that were either too weak or too strong.

    Never underestimate the power of traits and support slots. Flint has no trait and one slot. Shantae has a positive trait and three slots. The right trait and support spirit skills can dramatically boost one's fighter or turn the tables against the toughest opponents, so I value having slots and...

    You don't know where that mouth has been, or what else has been in it! Better to not sleep. As it happens, video games are a good way to avoid falling asleep.
