"Canon" really only applies to things that have an officially stated or printed canon of some sort, and a lot of works of fiction, especially ones aimed at kids and families and don't really try to be particularly story or setting-driven do not have one. Mario is one such example. Zelda...

But Charles Martinet is French-American. :yoshi:

We got two on GBA and two (three if you count Snapped) on DS. It's not as unprecedented as you think. 😉

The thing that bugs me about them recycling Bowser Jr.'s model for Baby Bowser is.... Baby Bowser has had 3D models before. One in Yoshi's Story, and another in Melee. The one in Melee in particular is clearly in the style of then-recent stock Mario character models, so I dunno what was stopping...

The Pumpkin Zone from Mario Land 2. Also Haunted Hall from Donkey Kong Country 2.

Interesting that the inside of the castle is white instead of blue. I wonder why they went with that?

I voted Paper Mario out of sheer principle.

Mario vs. Donkey Kong :yoshi:

:D

No.

why

yeah but that doesn't sound like "the worst". this is the "worst" thread, lol

maybe they just didn't feel like it.

...That didn't answer my question.

...then why were you the first one to bring them up?

Why?

I'm not sure I agree with the Banktoad and Mailtoad suddenly having inverted caps, nor Toadiko suddenly being aqua. Also who is "Toadalette"?

Thousand-Year Door ends with Flurrie going on to star in an adaptation of the game's events, so even though the game itself is presented as a play, it had to have actually happened in order for it to get adapted into a play in the first place.

I'd like to point that despite what Miyamoto said in that interview, Nintendo as a whole has literally never actually treated the Mario characters as actors. For comparison, look at the way Disney treats the Mickey Mouse characters, or the way Warner Bros. treats the Looney Tunes characters, or...

...really?

Maybe. :yoshi:

What if Baby Luigi was a car? :yoshi:

....did you just quote a part of your post inside itself?

Mario RPG didn't have much of a battle UI to begin with, so this one's not bothering me. I wanna know what that percentage thingie on the left is for.

It is kinda weird that the whole "no new original characters" thing seems to largely apply to Toads. It'll also be weird and pretty unfortunate if this rule is still in place and Mario RPG was some kind of special exception just because it's a remake of an existing game.

While the ages obviously don't make any sense in games past Partners in Time and Yoshi's Island DS, I pretty much accept those heights as official until another printed source comes along.

And Mario and Luigi for that matter. :V Why would Peach's younger sister be named "Kinopeach"?

Posting again to say I added a handful of items that were missing from the Land 2 post. Dunno how it took me this long to notice I skipped them.

Are you a walking snow cone?

Bumping this because I only just recently realized I made a mistake on one of these entries: I originally said 空ブロック/kara block under Super Mario World means "air block" but I forgot it was actually referring to empty blocks. So I fixed that, lol.

ok

Nintendo probably knew people colloquially called it "the blue shell" and let them leave it in.

I wouldn't call it perfect, but this is probably the best possible Mario movie we're gonna get in this day and age, so I'm still grateful.

3) Why not?

Obviously the crew are bigger Rare/Donkey Kong 64 fans than they are Nintendo fans. :yoshi:

Buh?

Are we being trolled?

Where's the gif from?

This movie is going to poison our water supply, burn our crops, and deliver a plague unto our houses!

What's there to restore, though?

It will what now?

Hence why 'miniature garden' is a better descriptor. ;D

When do we get Fire Donkey Kong in a game? 🤩

Riding the owl and the wire pulley thingie also have tutorials but I'm not sure those count as 'reactions' per se.

Nintendo themselves called 64, Sunshine and Odyssey 'miniature garden games' while Galaxy, Galaxy 2, 3D Land and 3D World are 'stage clear games' so there you go.

I never believed the latter two names were ever official in any capacity, mostly because 'Ala-Gold' (or rather Allah Gold) is from Star War The Third Gathers: The Backstroke of the West.

Where'd that Brash render come from? :0

After thinking about it, I kind of wish we were getting a game based directly on the movie.
