I think the bike from Mario Kart Wii does the star theme better (and Fawful comes off as a bike guy to me personally), but again, I'm a bike person. The Banisher is my go-to kart to see the unholy ocean of the base of characters that aren't Toad or Dry Bones.

I'm hoping the Shooting Star never shows up again, or at least it should get heavily redesigned. Look at it. It's so dinky.

The POW block is easily countered by just spamming the trick button (or shaking the controller) once you see it on screen. You barely spin out and you lose zero speed. Banana is worse at messing up your racing IMO. The worst POW block can do is make you lose your items... in a game that already...

I agree but those two are the best worst characters.

I like the idea of fake item boxes that look identical from real ones from a distance but the closer you go, the more apparent it's fake. I thought those red ones were supposed to work that way, but I think it was still pretty obvious from a distance.

If they're going to return coins and then advertise they boost speed, wouldn't it make sense to program a toggleable speedometer to actually show how speed is modified from these coins, no? Why did they remove the speedometer since Mario Kart DS?

I don't think my point was made clear. The points here are not necessarily invalid but I think it's unfair to single out Paper Jam for a lack of continuity when such a thing is by design and a component of the Mario games. It doesn't necessarily make it fine and dandy that it's designed this...

My question was rhetorical. The primary complaint in the thread was about a lack of carry over to the next game when I counter that almost nothing carries over anyway, not even continuity very much, and it shouldn't be a point against Paper Jam. As for Paper Jam's story, they salvaged it out of...

These games typically don't have the structure or even the slightest bit of developer consciousness to allow any real character development especially having these carry over to the next game. For instance, Superstar Saga had a moment where Luigi had to pretend to be Mario to try to rescue...

If they wanna put Sonic into a Mario Kart game, then I would then demand Mario be put into a Sonic Racers game.

Wait is this thread framing Chain Chomp and Fire Piranha Plant as undesired additions to a kart racing game. Dude, imagine CHAIN CHOMP driving a bike.

Another thing, I'm hoping kart parts are more customizable. Imagine if my frequently-used kart part, Mario, got some decor and body modifications (like in Mario Kart Live) to help accentuate the character I'll main. I haven't decided on a character yet (and how can we? we don't even know the...

Oh sure! I think I would like these rpg ocs a LOT more if they were given hammy voice acting. It would make them so much more quotable. Maybe my reading voice isn't that charismatic as I thought. Like these Let's Players make the Legion of Stationery so much funnier, I keep imagining these...

There's not much really to comment on besides 24 simultaneous racers, the race track itself (which we've seen only barely), and the roster, which includes bikes again. Like, zero gameplay is revealed for now (we haven't even seen items). Hell, we don't even know who the characters are except for...

I certainly recognize him as the big yellow bird! But I didn't know he came in a colorful array in other countries, until now! I like it!

If I were a petty god I would probably just change most characters in any given video game roster to Mario and Mario variants barring Wario, Waluigi, and DK. They're cannon fodder.

The forums during winter at one point used to have its logo be nearly entirely covered in snow.

After the ending of Super Paper Mario, Count Bleck had been tried for war crimes (he may have restored the place with the Heart thing but ultimately the entire tribe was killed, several other characters were killed, and the widespread economic disruption and devastation were all reasons for...

This year wasn't particularly impressive to me regarding Mario games but Brothership seems neat. Haven't played it yet. The Mario vs DK remake and Jamboree provided decent fun and I'll be coming back to Jamboree later. Peach Showtime unfortunately seems more novelty than game which is a shame.

I just know we're pretty overdue for a sport of this caliber again but I'm not holding my breath for its return (also please return horse racing, even if it was Camelot's doing).

Just the alternate shells he keeps for the different sizes he has throughout the games

If you don't mind, is it okay to move this to the wiki collab child board, and we get that pinned?

Hmm I might take back what I said a little bit. It turns out the meshes (NOT TEXTURES, JUST THE MESH) from Brawl to Smash Ultimate are nearly mostly reused, save for additional polys. HOWEVER Smash Ultimate's Mario deviates the most from the original, mostly his hair having additional poly...

Given that all the human women are Peach variants, it wouldn't be a far stretch that some random baby human girl looks like Baby Peach and just so happens to share a name with a Peach variant.

Yeah, as SGoW said, it involves someone having to go out there and drop a package off (and Amazon is the reason post office workers work six days a week). During November and December, those packages balloon. Also, this contributes to traffic congestion and pollution, so if you do have the means...

Uh if the option presents itself, I would just drive to a store and get a copy from there, I don't see why Amazon has to be involved.

People may have issues accepting the truth that Mario from Super Smash Bros. Brawl has the most on-model look to his contemporary game counterpart.

I don't think any features it has really matters because the only reason to even get the console to begin with is mostly for the console exclusives, which is already kind of a shaky investment since a lot of these games tend to be overpriced and fixed at the same price (idk if it makes up for...

I love Stardew Valley

I think given the trajectory of things, Paper Jam will wind up being #2 on your list

My hot take is to kill off the Kamek character and replace him with Kammy.

Heck my own username is ridiculous.

I drew this over the course of several days just to mark the end of fall. Yeah.... first time I signed my work. I don't normally commit to drawing this long that I'd do this, but it's quite exciting.

I do wonder how southern hemisphere residents feel that they certainly "the other" on the internet when all seasonal promotions are pretty much the opposite of what they're actually experiencing outside. Or the equator folks where there are no seasons.

Gonna rank Paper Mario games on how close they are to rudimentary preconceptions of the term "Paper Mario". What comes to mind to the layperson when they hear the phrase "Paper Mario"? Which game fits that preconception best? I'll evaluate. Paper Mario: The Origami King is a clear first due to...

Paper Mario in Mario Land is a known entity in Mario Land, kinda like in Paper Jam, but the storybook Luigi opens up covers the existence of Sticker Star. There are other Paper Mario volumes in the library, and they contain the stories of Paper Mario 64, Paper Mario: Color Splash, and Paper...

I'm not sure if there are hypothetical voice over types that use something closer to Mario's voice in Hotel Mario. I'm not sure if it'll really improve that much because not only Hotel Mario sounds terrible, he also looks dead-eyed and the proportions are so off. Buuuut I suppose an ugly Mario...

If Wrecking Crew comes back, Mario should be portrayed in overalls, with a hard hat, and (important) without a shirt.

It's been literally decades of me never listening to Hotel Mario's quotes until now, and I can understand now why they're so infectious. I usually see Hotel Mario quotes taken way out of context or bastardized as YouTube Poops, but I think the original is just so funny. "Gee it's kinda dark"...
