    What game did you last play?!?!?!?

    It's several mods you can probably search in GameBanana (we had our own voice mods because that's funny) https://gamebanana.com/mods/439830 https://gamebanana.com/mods/476133 https://gamebanana.com/mods/337608 DON'T BE SO HASTY

    What's your favourite Paper Mario (series) song?

    Paper Mario: The Origami King has definitely one of the best soundtracks. Disco Devil is a standout for me.

    Mario Kart World

    The game also doesn't even look that good on top of all of that, with screenshots, as usual, snuffed out by excessive bloom (a graphical filter that was infamous in the 2010s) and reliance on fog to cover up flaws of distant objects, that look really similar to the last gen Mario Kart 8... but...

    Mario Kart World

    I mean why not give players more degree of control of setting individual players. Why do we have to rely on randomization to set teams? For years I've been wanting a way to set who's on your team and what car they're driving. And I don't think I'm the only one nor am I in some obscure tiny...

    Mario Kart World

    Yeah, in spite of the argument that customizarion removal lends to better design, my sister and I don't dig the karts here most of the time. We find plenty of karts too... childish and kitschy, looking too small and overpowered by the relative size of the driver, like the roster is driving...

    Mario Kart World

    Vehicle part stats add a fake sense of depth. I didn't understand why my friends were so concerned about statistics when they're subject to inopportune item luck or well executed sandbagging. I won't miss them this game. That being said I'm not impressed that they're removing that aspect from...

    I'm the only one willing to call out Yoshi for lacking personality.

    They certainly have a personality, but having personality, not so much.

    It's the hair cards for me. What is going on there? Mario needs a brush.

    What Do you consider to Be the Rarest Mario Enemy?

    Judging from the NSO icon change and other artwork changes, at this rate, I'm also going to nominate pre 2025 Donkey Kong as one of the Rarest Mario enemies

    It feels canonically incorrect to ignore bosses.

    You don't see politicians sporting in a serious competition in real life. They usually send athletes over to represent them. Princess Peach, Princess Daisy (whose status as an actual ruler remains ambiguous), King Bowser, Prince Bowser Jr., Mayor Pauline, and occasionally King Bob-omb are more...

    'Shroomfest (Round 8) - FANTASY vs SCI-FI

    Hi, I'm here to chip in to endorse Fantasy for this Shroomfest and I've seen plenty of arguments for and against it. I'm here to make a personal case for this genre. While love plenty of great works Sci-Fi genre offers such as the appeal of technology changing human society, flashy armor, cool...

    Unpopular opinions about the Mario series

    The Sand Kingdom is the best kingdom in Super Mario Odyssey, where most of the soundtrack is localized in smaller areas and the ambient background noise makes up most of the kingdom. I can spend plenty of time here due to the more subdued use of music vs the constantly looping 45-second track of...

    Mario Kart World

    I don't think they really are in need of reason. They can include Fawful in Mario Kart if they really wanted to. This is the series that had a sponsorship to include the Mercedes Benz GLA. From a big picture standpoint, I just think they want to surprise people with the unorthodox roster.

    Mario Kart World

    It's fine to express disappointment but you shouldn't levy the rhetoric they used toward your characters you like toward other characters other people may like. I'm personally fond of the offbeat inclusions of Dolphin, Penguin, Piranha Plant, Conkdor and Cow Cow, and nowadays, I'm not really the...

    Unpopular opinions about the Mario series

    There's a decent amount of sports and party games this generation but, while solid, all of them were lacking, usually content (Super Mario Party), game options (Super Mario Party Jamboree, Mario Party Superstars, Mario Tennis Aces) or both (Battle League, Mario Golf Super Rush). Though Mario +...

    We'll just see who's willing to drop 600+ minimum for a kids' kart racer (and maybe an extra 70 for a platformer) and GameCube games, because backward compatibility, which the 3DS had, didn't carry it, in the countries still recovering from inflation and tariffs. I know it's a stronger lineup...

    What Would A New Trilogy Of Paper Mario Games Be Like?

    The recipes need to have some actual use lol why was it designed like this. Just redo that system entirely and get something that's actually worth the payoff rather than the current system where you hunt for obscure boiled egg in the corner of a place and exchange your 50 coins in a shop located...

    Not buying it. The MINIMUM outrageous $80 tag (alongside the Switch 2 itself being pretty overpriced) is Nintendo testing the waters and you bet the other publishers in the industry are watching to see if people buy.

    Mario Kart World

    Seems like anecdote and overreliance on the word of people who spend time online, which are not the majority of the players who play Mario Kart. Jury is still out if the Koopalings are back, but Baby Rosalina still returned in spite of her online reputation being negative (that character also...

    Mario Kart World

    If they were so hated then why did people choose Morton and not other characters of his weight class before the "balance" updates? This is a pretty strong claim and I'd like to see any semblance of evidence backing that up.

    What Mario games would fit in the National Game Registry?

    Didn't say it was necessarily new or innovative. I emphasize the scale in the video game industry instead: Mario's sales figures and amount of games are undeniably unprecedented for a video game franchise, dwarfing every other video game series, and it owes to Mario Kart probably planting those...

    Mario Kart World

    Bringing up inflation requires extra context to justify the price of this. For instance the counter argument floating around would be that while inflation has gone up worldwide, purchasing power has not. Wages have not kept up with it. So we're getting this discussion of the price of this game...

    What Mario games would fit in the National Game Registry?

    Mario Party should be worth consideration (even if you don't agree); in spite of its quality and having a series of sameish games built off recycled assets, it DID popularize a genre of video game board games interlaced with minigames, if not set it. Basically, it's one out of the few series in...

    What If Nintendo Had Followed Sega's Direction During The 2000s?

    They tried to do this with Brothership but from the impressions of players, the game's foundations simply cannot sustain anything longer than 25ish hours of gameplay. If you want a deeper game with a deeper story that lasts as long as Brothership you'll likely have to introduce more complexity...

    What If Daisy Got Her Own Game?

    I'm down for Daisy Dating Sim. The phrase itself even has a nice ring to it, like a tongue twister. That honestly was Princess Peach Showtime, only without Daisy and a pixel art style.

    What If Daisy Got Her Own Game?

    Daisy just isn't enough of a standout character to get a game but she certainly can play as a close friend of Peach, where her energetic can-do personality contrasts with Peach's cautious and considerate (but not timid like Luigi) "let's not try to harm others" approach to things. Peach can get...

    Do you support the clones?

    I think instead of adding new characters, if they really care about just recognizable characters and stick to them while making a couple clone characters after running out of resources, they should at least try to make each existing character stand out a lot better, like what Battle League...

    The "True" 2.5D Mario platformer

    Indeed you're not the only one who's voiced that issue with the presentation of these platformers. The closest thing we got to a truly 2.5D Mario in a Mario platformer would be the Super Mario 3D World parts of Super Mario Maker 2. I'll provide examples just to illustrate Nintendo has...
