    Rule Boardsania for a day.

    You are the King/Queen/Monarch of Boardsania for one day, then someone else has to have a turn before you can rule again. Every day you may pass one law or take one royal action. You can't make yourself rule for longer than a day, change the amount of laws that can be passed in a day, or...

    Does Bowser scout female soldiers?

    Most official material that I can recall off the top of my head, such as manuals and in game text refers to the majority of generic enemies as if they were male or gender neutral, but I could easily be overlooking something. Cheep-cheep was the only enemy referred to as female in the manual to...

    Super Mario Bros. Wonder

    This game was really good overall, even though I felt it was a little on the easy side, and would have liked to see a greater variety of bosses. I'd be excited to see a Super Mario Bros. Wonder theme added to the next iteration of the Mario Maker series.

    My opinion is between option 2 and option 5. I like Waluigi, and would be happy to see him upgraded to a fighter but there are many other characters that I'd enjoy as additions more.

    Would you rather? (school subjects edition)

    I'd teach baby Luigi maths, not because baby Luigi is my favorite, but because I feel like it's the subject I'd be the best at teaching. I'm not sure he'd be old enough to understand much of the subject, but in the Mario universe babies are capable of driving go-karts through incoming traffic...

    Sorry, I traveled back in time to the year 1980 and moved a chair in the Nintendo headquarters, and now the Mr. Video Boards seem to be called the Super Mario Boards. At least I was able to prevent Nintendo from being bought by Sony in 2000. That timeline was awful.

    What non-video game characters would you like to see in Smash?

    Since this is an old thread it's interesting to note that there have been several platform fighters or "smash-likes" to put it more crudely released with non-video game characters now. Anyways, for smash particularly I think it would be funny to add characters specific to non video-game...

    A Minecraft Movie

    If I was making the Minecraft movie, I'd make the main character alone for most of the runtime, and have little to no dialogue, I think my ideal Minecraft movie would walk the line of being almost frustratingly boring at some points, and I'm not kidding. It would also need to be a little...

    Sequel to The Super Mario Bros movie announced

    I thought the first movie was just okay, I don't hold any real fondness towards it in the same way that I do for the games, but I understand why a lot of people really like it. I'm interested to see where the new one goes. Interestingly enough they phrased it as a new animated film based on the...

    A lot of conversations on Reddit incentivize people to view conversations as a mean of earning points for their "team".

    Who's your pipe dream main cast addition?

    He's not even that obscure, since he was in Smash but I'd like R.O.B. to be included in more Mario games and be made into a more fleshed out character. I think he first appeared as a character in Mario Kart DS after all. I really like robot characters and I think he would make a fun addition to...

    How important is backwards compatibility to you?

    I think backwards compatibility is more important if the console is a "sequel console" that is a continuation and straightforward upgrade of the design ethos/infrastructure of the previous console. If the console is more focused on providing a different type of experience or the jump in...

    Princess Peach Showtime

    I think the game looks cute, and I like when Nintendo gives side characters their own games, but from the little gameplay I've seen I'm worried that the game will be too simple and slow paced for my tastes. I still haven't seen enough to have a good measure yet.

    post any random Mario thought on your mind

    Does anyone know why nintendo marketing often refers to games in the format "The [title of game] game" such as The Super Mario Wonder Game or the Skyward Sword HD game. It's an odd bit of phrasing. Perhaps it's a translation quirk, or it's a weird copywright thing.

    I've never heard of the term f/o, and my google results only show that it's an acronym for field officer, do you mind telling me what it means? Also, unrelated, but the way you placed Peppino over the other character makes him look like he has octopus legs.
