This is essentially a thread for some behind-the-scenes stuff and things I was thinking about when I'm writing for SIMulation, my monthly 'Shroom section, as well as some images that didn't make the cut while I was taking snapshots for the session. Sections Create-a-Sim. Issue 171. June 19...

No video game is inherently perfect. Talk about some stuff you don't like in games you otherwise have nothing but showering praise for. Whether it's bad levels, badly written characters, bad game mechanics, all that fun stuff. (i love these little save album photos amazing) Mario & Luigi...

Hello! This is the thread to go to if you wish to have discussion on the content of our main page poll at the moment. It is a continuation of this thread here. Polls update on a biweekly basis, so stay tuned every Sunday for a new topic to talk about! If you have any poll suggestions for the...

Self-explanatory. Post what you think is your least controversial Mario opinion. Luigi's Mansion is a very great series with virtually no bad games, and is the best set of games starring Luigi. We might rank Luigi's Mansion games differently, but we can all agree that they're quite fun and...

Discuss probably the most misunderstood design principle in the Mario series. Several things that I'd like to clear up about it. Some of the named people involved in the interviews (eg Tanabe, Miyamoto) are NOT the main drivers behind it nor are they solely responsible. These people are...

Greetings, members of the MarioWiki community. As the Lord of Chairs of the Pole Committee, I aspire to take over the world, now that you have elected I, Ray Trace (aliases: BabyLuigiOnFire, Baby Luigi, or a Protector name) and his second-in-command goose, Luigi 64DD, to be in power. In order to...

What are some of your favorite levels from various Mario-related titles (can include Wario, Yoshi, and Donkey Kong)? Super Mario Bros. 2: I can't really think of much stand-out levels because I thoroughly enjoy the game throughout but I do remember having fun beating up Pokeys with the Star...

Well they may not have "zone" in the name but they are still "zones" in the spirit of the classic Sonic games. In danger: Palmtree Panic Collision Chaos Tidal Tempest Quartz Quadrant Wacky Workbench Stardust Speedway Metallic Madness Safe: Eliminated:

These are the zones featured in Sonic 2, with the exception of Death Egg Zone because that's just a boss gauntlet. There are four zones than in Sonic 1 (10 as opposed to 6), so this game will last a bit longer, at the very least. I'm also not sure if Sky Chase / Wing Fortress should be merged as...

Small game, pick one out of 6 zones to save. Final Zone of course does not count as it's just a boss arena. In danger: Green Hill Zone Marble Zone Spring Yard Zone Labyrinth Zone Star Light Zone Scrap Brain Zone Safe: Eliminated:

In our large world of video games, we have plenty of decent, well-designed box arts, but there's also a world of hilariously terrible, hideous box arts. This thread is the place to post your finds and write about the ugliest and worst-put-together boxes. Nothing screams like meta box-art...

This is the thread where you talk about them in every Smash game. To how dumb their antics are, to how cheap and broken they are, to how much they read your inputs and perfect shield your every move yet will still jun and jump into a fully charged PK Flash (yes, this happened in Ultimate), talk...

So, every console Mario Kart since Double Dash had some sort of defining feature that has separated them from other Mario Kart titles. Out of the following, which ones do you think implemented best? Mario Kart: Double Dash!! This one had two characters per kart, which could allow for co-op...

This thread is written for people that want to know how to fix up your models before you render them and upload their images to MarioWiki. This thread covers data-ripped models only (ie, models in bind-pose, usually T-pose for bipeds). Commonly Used Programs 3DS Max: This is my program of...

I've never liked the water levels in Mario games. I think the main reason is their controls, especially in 2D platformers. Without certain power-ups, Mario controls like a sluggish, stiff brick who constantly sinks underwater where you repeatedly have to mash the A button in order to get any...

Donkey Kong will look in the pit, and laugh menacingly if he wins. I was never really a huge fan of trivia sections in this wiki. Theoretically, they're supposed to be areas where you are supposed to plop interesting, miscellaneous information that cannot be fit elsewhere in the article, such...

Throughout its lifespan, Paper Mario has undergone some art-style changes, from its N64 inception, to the Wii U entry, Paper Mario: Color Splash. Paper Mario first started on the Nintendo 64, where its graphics are sprite-based and they're simply animated frame-by-frame, as traditionally...

Let's face it. Boss fights in the Mario platformers have never been a particular strong point for the series. Whether it's facing a character a countless number of times in a row with slight variations (New Super Mario Bros. DS, Super Mario Bros., 2,), Koopalings who don't even perform any...

Right now, this one's stuck in my head.

As of currently, all Mario Kart entries are stuck with Grand Prix, Vs Mode, Time Trial, and Battle Mode, and it has been this way since Super Mario Kart. Personally, I found it on the barebones side of things, with not much stuff to do for the single player other than race on cups for all cc's...

https://kotaku.com/game-critic-totalbiscuit-has-died-1826310517 I really liked his videos talking about...uh video game stuff, even though I'm a casual viewer. I've known he had cancer for quite some time and knew he wasn't going to live much longer, but I'm still really upset to see him die at...

Decided to make a topic about it here to bring some more attention and discussion surrounding the currently unimplemented proposals. Some aren't carried out since 2015 and honestly that's the main reason I decided to make this topic. #ProposalsUserTime Passed 1.Create separate articles for...

Anyone of you remember the hack, Newer Super Mario Bros. Wii? If not, find the opportunity to go play it, that hack is really good. Well, a sequel of that has been released recently, Newer Super Mario Bros. DS It's a mod similar in style to Newer Super Mario Bros., except with a few new...

If you were in charge for Mario Party: The Top 100 instead, what minigames would you choose for your list? If I was in charge, my minigame list for each Mario Party would be evenly split into 10 minigames for each console installment. I don't know if I should make a separate list should I...

I'll let you decide whether it's real or fake

So recently, I nominated Culex to be unfeatured because I think that its length is too short for it to remain in its featured stats. I had a disagreement with Tucayo regarding what constitutes as a reasonable length, and he suggested me to rewrite some of the guidelines of the Featured Articles...

http://www.3dshacks.tk/data/uploads/20151224.zip Posting it here if anyone is interested in uploading the .pngs to MarioWiki. Gonna be fun uploading all of them Mario badges, as well as Ashley ones and stuff. Badges from later versions are not included.

And yes, I'm a member (as well as my twin, LeftyGreenMario) of the team, for quite some time before its official announcement (like months) as one of the 3D modelers so I've known about this for a while. The stage of this hack is still in very early beta, so there's not much I can say about our...

So now this is a thing. All we know is that they returned the car-like mechanic to the handhelds NdCube needs to stop trying.

Super Smash Bros. None of them are particularly awful in my opinion, but Sector Z is far too huge and Dreamland is a bit on the boring side. Super Smash Bros. Melee I don't particularly hate any of these either when playing with my settings, though in other cases, Jungle Japes, Big Blue, and...

So...this show isn't really all that popular, basically being like slightly more toned down Teen Titans Go! but with Powerpuff Girls instead. I don't know if I consider myself a fan of the Powerpuff Girls, but I did grow up with them, remember most Season 1-4 episodes of the original series...

Ever since I received a new graphics card (a Nvidia Geforce GTX 960) to replace my old defunct AMD r9 series graphics card, the computer gets prone to overheating when running demanding applications. This is especially true when running Dolphin Emulator and it shut off once when Bazooka Mario...

Mmmmmmm Megaton Dinner But in all seriousness, if you could pick a Paper Mario dish to eat, which one will you pick? For a meal, I'd like to have lotsa Spaghetti with a Fresh Juice and a Zess Frappe for dessert. yes I am hungry when I'm typing this

Put them in tiers of how much you like them. This is in no order btw (except Mario Bros., Spear Pillar, and Pac-Land because those two stages deserve to be in the bottom, that's how awful they are. Blue = Gotta Have It Green = Like Orange = Eh Gold = Dislike Red = Hate Super Smash Bros. Hyrule...

There's going to be a lunar eclipse tonight, the last of the tetrad of them (four of them in the last 17 months). This time, however, it's going to occur when the moon is in a super moon state, that is, it's at its closest to Earth than its other cycles, thus making it appear larger and brighter...

http://www.nasa.gov/mission_pages/newhorizons/images/index.html New Horizons finally flew by Pluto and we finally got some cool high resolution pics of that former planet and its moons for the first time ever since it got discovered in 1930. This is a huge milestone in science. The...

Looks really nice

I'm pretty disappointed that most custom mods for Spelunky HD just use sprites from other games so I decided to make a Baby Luigi in style myself. Here's what I've got done so far...(wow I'm actually spriting again...) All I did was draw Baby Luigi head and put it over Green's body and edited...

In this topic my twin and I will post Gmod screenshots with a ton of characters and stuff in them on a variable interval schedule if we can try. here's the first one I'll showcase See if you can spot all characters here. Hell sometimes even I can't spot all of them and I can't keep of a list...

I'd say Mario Sports Mix or Mario Tennis Open. Mario Tennis Open gets the edge for excluding someone, you know, but Sports Mix's character roster is also pret-ty bad since they made a ton of cuts, all who are Mario characters, while only including Toad and Slime. Anyone wanna share their sour...

It's been going on in the news for a while (with some of our users placing black "Je Suis Charlie" protests on their profiles), so I feel we should at least mention it here on the Marioboards. A cartoonist office who is in charge of a magazine called Charlie Hebdo got attacked by Islamic...

http://www.gamespot.com/articles/nintendo-reveals-the-toads-gender-secret/1100-6423610/ (btw, toad and toadette are not romantically involved, just...friends. welp, another official thing i'm going to flat out ignore)

Discuss your experiences with Smash Run here. Recently, I've gotten first place with all characters. Hint: the reward (a smash run power if I'm not mistaken) you get for completing this challenge isn't too impressive. I think the absolute best builds for Smash Run are Bruiser focused...

I'm completely serious. At this rate, I'm going to lose this house that me and my family are living in because my dad's single income cannot support all of us (5 members) plus the constant expenses we are getting (he's still paying mortgage bills). I really don't want to lose this house and live...

There's a crapton of games out there that I think I'm missing out on much. It's not because they're uninteresting games....but I lack the sufficient funds to buy barely any games at all so I have to prioritize which games I really want and which game I will buy at a later time. I need a job man...

So I've started working on this today, done it with Baby Luigi and Baby Mario as I feel like it's about time since the recent proposal about using voice clips passed. Other than the small worry that I might be delving into to too much detail about these two characters, I'm pleased with my work...

This is how I typically play Super Smash Bros. Melee Giant Melee 2.0 damage ratio Bob-omb, Motion-Sensor Bomb, Screw Attack, Warp Star, Freezie, Mega Mushroom, Parasol, Poke Balls, Super Scope, Party Ball, all on Very High 17 minute timed match (occasionally with coins) If the CPUs are on the...

Me, I prefer the easy side when it comes to playing video games.

I don't get it. There's a recent Steam update that completely broke my Steam app on my computer. I can't access my friend activity, I can't access the store, I can't access my comments. Whenever I attempt to access one of the aforementioned, it stalls and then crashes. It seems to do the...

A much more positive version of my very own great idea (that I didn't steal). Baby Luigi: He's awesome, he's cute, he's bawss, and I love him Baby Mario: He's awesome too, but not as much as Baby Luigi Toadette: I always liked her since Double Dash Toad: He's my go-to choice in many games since...
