    Mario series related Dreams you had

    i had a dream where they showed daisy in a post credits scene of the mario galaxy movie and rosalina said "sister?" and now i have an irrational fear of that happening because i ship them

    Broodals are Koopas

    I think Spewart resembles Morton way more than Roy.

    What defines a "king" in Super Mario world?

    The Mario Movie technically did make Cranky Kong a king.

    Should Super Mario series start a girls branding?

    I'm not really a fan of segregated gender branding in general, but i wouldn't mind more games centered on the female characters. Ideally Vivian would be included in that though.

    My mom let me borrow her old laptop that I used before getting my own in 2013, and my account on it is so untouched that this thumbnail greeted me when i tried to open the browser. Another "recent tabs" thumbnail was of the official Japanese site for Mario & Luigi: Dream Team, which hadn't...

    Hate to break it to you but that's not in the game's files, it's an entirely fanmade song.

    What's your take on NSMB "Yellow/Blue Toad" routine?

    If someone has to be kidnapped & someone has to rescue them, I don't want it to just be a matter of "is it going to be Mario or Peach." Let other characters be candidates too. In addition to just dialing back the frequency of kidnapping plots in general. You don't even need to have a kidnapping...

    Unpopular opinions about the Mario series

    I'd honestly prefer to get a TV adaptation of the Mario RPGs that adds full voice acting over voice acting being added to the games themselves. As for full spoken dialogue from Mario and Luigi, I'm very mixed on it. Charles Martinet has never given a bad performance but I do think the times he's...

    Unpopular opinions about the Mario series

    idk i'm too concerned they'll screw that up and it's very hard to get right. like the voice acting in the mario movie is already controversial, and it's at a Hollywood level where outside of voice direction & casting choice, at least the execution of that direction is competent and gets the job...

    Mario Tennis Fever (Nintendo Switch 2)

    The lore doesn't matter for party spinoffs like this. My most-wanted character is canonically deceased and I don't think that should matter for the purposes of a roster like this at all. (He has enough actual hurdles as it is with how the company seems to operate)

    What's your take on NSMB "Yellow/Blue Toad" routine?

    I don't see Mario and Peach's relationship as romantic. Sure, there's the little kiss when she gets rescued, but she gives that to whoever rescues her, not exclusively Mario, so I always see it as less of a romantic kiss and more of a traditional thank you kiss. I don't think their relationship...

    Unpopular opinions about the Mario series

    I think this is most people's take, the Bee Mushroom has expected controls & just slightly slows you down and makes you heavier, as opposed to the spring mushroom completely removing all reliable forms of traditional control and forcing you to move entirely in jump arcs with little control over...

    Mario Kart Series Discussion

    This goes for all Mario roster based spinoffs but I've always focused mainly on Mario Kart because it's the most well known & the one I have played the most. I really wish they'd pull from more Marioverse source material than they historically have. I feel like this is a game where it would be...

    Mario Kart World

    i just wanna be able to design my own graphics again like they had in DS and only DS. If Super Mario Maker 2 can allow users to draw stuff and post it in levels for anyone to see, i don't see how they can't bring back custom emblems. you'd think moderating both would be a similar endeavor...

    Post Any Movie Thought On Your Mind

    a troll in central park is overhated. not one of the better animated films by a long shot (and certainly not a "masterpiece" as i claimed through my nostalgia goggles years ago) but genuinely like, i don't see what makes it as hated as it is. it's a harmless movie that clearly is aimed at...

    Cursed but clean Mario products

    it's the same with that Super Mario Chess set, i still see it at walmart with identical packaging to what it had when i bought it a decade ago, 2000s Mario logo and all. i'm honestly gonna be a bit sad when that logo vanishes completely, i like that that era is living on in a way through these...

    What's your take on NSMB "Yellow/Blue Toad" routine?

    the only way i'd go with the design updates is if the designs actually set them apart from all forms of generic Toad in more than just outfit. Nonstandard palettes, body type differences, facial hair, that kind of stuff, and were given suitably unique names to solidly define them as distinct...

    Unpopular opinions about the Mario series

    I don't mind Mario Kart World gameplay-wise for the most part, I think the routes are a nice addition and my only gripe with them is that they are essentially guaranteed in worldwides and Grand Prix has been entirely gutted to make them take up 90% of each track outside the first one. If we got...

    How do you regard the amiibo collection so far?

    Music you want in Smash

    Remixes for more Mario RPG songs. The existing selection we have is extremely limited, I dislike how the entirety of the Paper Mario remixes we have come from that medley that is really just a single song from TTYD and two from Sticker Star (one of which not even being a true original to that...

    Why Didn't The Nintendo DS Receive A Smash Bros. Game?

    i feel like the reason is mostly the available controls, not the power of the system. if controls weren't an issue, i could easily see a smash game with low poly models, i think it could look really neat tbh.

    testing a rotating avatar. can't use it as a pfp here sadly but i might put it in my sig at some point. should be 3 different rolls here since i used each available extension for the url. also hoping these get sized consistently despite the image pool varying a lot in size.

    Your favorite Super Mario Merchandise line?

    It's gotta be this set of Bowser's Inside Story styluses. They're such an anomaly compared to what usually gets merch and i wish we got to see more like this (like standalone figures from these games? man why is this like THE only time these characters have been depicted in any way more tangible...

    Why does everyone hate Starlow?

    Starlow is nowhere NEAR on the obnoxious level of Kersti. That said, I do think she's an ass to Luigi. A lot of people cite that she apologizes in BIS, but like, she only does that after Luigi is so hurt that Mario has to step in and stand up for him. She respects Mario, it's only his...

    Which is true about Paper Mario canon?

    Neither of these fit my answer. They aren't separate universes. At least when thinking about the original vision for Paper Mario. The "Paper World" as a separate universe exclusively appears in Paper Jam, which I struggle to find reason to even recognize as canon to the M&L continuity given...

    The Super Mario Galaxy Movie (Spring 2026)

    I'm hella excited for this. Bowser Jr's eyes looking weird are really my only nitpick so far, but i think i'll get used to it. Rosalina looks exactly how everyone visualized her. I love that Mario just bluntly goes "it's trash" to Bowser's artwork, with the most direct, hateful tone imaginable...

    Unpopular opinions about the Mario series

    I'd like to see Waluigi get a starring role, and my idea for it could technically work with or without Wario. Basically, an evil force captures all the people in the Mushroom Kingdom and turns them into slaves, skipping over Waluigi because that's how little he's taken seriously. But as a result...

    what if charles martinet never voiced mario?

    i'm glad we didn't get this timeline but i am curious about how the mario rpgs would have gone with the pre-Martinet depiction of mario the thought of Super Show, Hotel, or 1993 Movie Mario facing off against Count Bleck or Reclusa is an amusing one. And the team-ups with Bowser, imagine a...

    What else will we get from Nintendo Switch 2?

    I should specify that i was saying that as myself, not with any mod authority behind it. Nor do I believe it was being used with malicious intent here. I just personally believe that genAI is a much different thing from designing something in Photoshop, as it has a negative effect on the...

    Misnomers

    I get being frustrated with Nintendo insisting upon their inclusion in Grand Prix and online modes with no option to play only lap-based courses, but I find the routes themselves a refreshing spin on Mario Kart gameplay. High level competitive players don't like them, but i personally find them...

    What are the saddest Super Mario games in your opinion?

    Super Paper Mario's ending on its own is emotional, but it becomes even sadder when I think of it in context to where the series would go from there. I have yet to feel like the line "may we meet again in another time and place" is fulfilled, considering the total reboot the series underwent...

    What do you want out of a potential Super Mario Galaxy 3?

    wherever my mind went when i first found out Galaxy 2 was a thing back in 2009. So, a villain other than Bowser (at the time i was firmly on Dimentio copium but i mean come on a universal-scale game calls for someone right up his alley imo). Bowser is great in the Galaxy games but idk I feel...

    Misnomers

    i honestly call them highways, i don't think there is a definitive name for them but they can't be intermissions because that's already in use and for something that fits that word more anyway.

    Misnomers

    it bothers me to an absurd degree how the entire fanbase has seemingly accepted without question the term "intermissions" when referring to the highway tracks in Mario Kart World, when that word is meant to refer to the waiting room lobby between online matches. In fact, I'm pretty sure the word...

    The Super Mario Galaxy Movie (Spring 2026)

    The first movie has nothing in common with the actual stated lore of Super Mario Bros. 1 other than the broad idea of Mario going on a quest in the Mushroom Kingdom to rescue someone from Bowser. Not even who that is is taken from SMB1 though, as it's Luigi instead of Peach, and Bowser isn't...

    The Super Mario Galaxy Movie (Spring 2026)

    I don't think we have to worry about that. The first movie wasn't a straight adaptation, it was a new story remixing elements of many games to create an origin story for this new version of Mario. I expect the Galaxy movie to be the same. Galaxy elements will be a focus, a significant portion...

    The Super Mario Galaxy Movie (Spring 2026)

    I'm confident they'll still have plenty of elements from other games to represent them. Not every single platforming Mario game needs an entire movie dedicated solely to adapting its specific adventure since most, when you disregard gameplay, are just the same thing with minimal thematic twists...

    What Animal Would You Like To Become A Mario Powerup?

    I'd like to see Bat Mario. Since bats fly though, I wouldn't give it full flight, but rather a glide similar to the Flying Squirrel power-up, but also with the ability to release sound waves that damage/stun enemies. It could also come with a bonus of giving better vision in dark levels when...

    The oddity of King Boo in Mario Kart Arcade GP DX

    What Animal Would You Like To Become A Mario Powerup?

    If he gets a bird power-up, it shouldn't be a flying one because Mario's flying power-ups tend to actively NOT be based on things that fly (except Bee Mario but that's less of a fly and more of a limited hover) Technically he already has this with Penguin Mario.
