Mainly the one Player 2 controls, like in Super Mario Galaxy 2. I guess a case on how Mario is not alone could be made for Super Mario Galaxy 1, although this case is superseded by the fact that Luigi is playable in that game. Thank you for reading.

One of the things I would like to see return from Super Mario 64 is the idea that Mario is solely the playable character again. In later games, Mario is either: (1) aided by a different character like FLUDD or Co-Star Luma, (2) is not the only playable character like in Super Mario Galaxy or...

To start this thread with a bang, it's time to post my commentary on a community that's came to pass. I posted about the Challenges before, so this time, I will post about the actual Rounds that involve the time limit. Scribble Circuit - winstein Edition This is it, the fifth year of Scribbles...

I also thought Mario Golf: Super Rush is a nice change of pace from the other Mario Golf games. It's basically that series game that is outlier, such as Wario Land 3. I think it's quite cool that the players can run around the golf course, even though it is pretty limited in how much they can...

Occasionally I compared Rosalina to Knuckles, where their background is tied to a specific setting but because they are popular enough, they keep appearing in situations that are not tied to the places they are strongly associated with. They even appear in games that are considered pinnacles to...

Neither option would be ideal, but if the names that came from gaming websites were used, IGN's Yvan and Wolley are better for being simple names, as opposed to Destructoid's Bucken-Berry and Ala-Gold due to the complexity of the names, though I suspect the unusual nature of the names are why...

I am going to make a prediction here and say that Baby Bowser is also going to show up... as a Bowser Jr. alt. This stems from how unique characters are playable despite being alternate versions of existing ones, namely Lumalee being there. This is the kind of plot that can justify both Baby...

Yes, that's right. That was my mistake. Thank you for reading.

Nintendo is not obligated to do it, and by all accounts they were pretty much done with the game after it's released, but I would've liked there to be a Mario Kart 7 Deluxe in which the game is made with more time where it is more fully-featured. Of all the Mario Kart games, this one felt the...

Speaking of Baby Waluigi, I find it interesting that acceptance for the character is pretty good, in that there aren't as many people who express disdain for him. Even considering him one of the highlights in the first reveal. Waluigi's certainly gone a long way where he's a major presence in...

Normally I would post one The ? Panel comic a post, but I am kind of behind with these so I might occasionally post two of them together to speed things up a bit. Space Wail It's another return to Super Mario Galaxy, and that means Rosalina returns! The comic is inspired by how I imagine...

I guess, but just because a game was developed for a previous console in mind but ended up in its successor, does not mean that they get a new game later in that console's life. As an example, Super Paper Mario was made for the Gamecube but was repurposed for the Wii, but that didn't translate...

This topic is timely in that I was wondering if Starlow is still considered the pariah of the Mario & Luigi community after three games with her (based on what others who play would vouch for, Starlow is handled best in Bowser's Inside Story. That's why I excluded this game, meaning the three...

I would prefer if Kamek is the main villain in the Yoshi games. Unfortunately for Kamek, he's often upstaged by Baby Bowser and in Artoon/Arzest's games, by Bowser himself. The only game that goes far with this is Yoshi's Crafted World, where . Thank you for reading.

While Waluigi tends to be strongly associated with Wario usually, I would like Waluigi to take up more roles independent from Wario. As an example, perhaps in a Mario RPG, Waluigi could be the force of mischief and he would appear in said game without Wario (Mario Tennis Advance Tour almost have...

The King Boo from Super Mario Sunshine and the King Boo from Mario Kart (the Luigi's Mansion one... not at all). Thank you for reading.

The follow-up to Super Mario 64 is not Super Mario Sunshine, is it? I presume that 64 DS is the expanded rerelease if both instances are distinct. With that said, I do not consider 64 DS as a sequel because it's more akin to a remake instead of something new. In a way it's akin to how Super...

Conversely, my lack of desire for Luigi's Mansion is the fact that Mario is not only not playable, but he's always put in a position where he's rescued by Luigi after the main villain is defeated for good (so Mario can't help partway, unlike how Luigi helps partway in Super Mario 3D Land after...

I felt that Super Mario Galaxy is very well-treated that I can see why they might get obnoxious when their cup runneth over in terms of what that game brought from there. Not only did it introduce arguably the last major recurring Mario character (Rosalina), but it's also got the privilege to...

If the Nintendo Switch 2's active period is about as long as the Nintendo Switch, we might get the bigger heavy hitters eventually, at least. Which by my estimation would be: Mario Kart (released) Donkey Kong (released) Mario Tennis (announced with date) Yoshi (announced with window) NS2...

Even though it's technically correct that the franchise is both called Mario franchise and Super Mario franchise, I prefer "Mario franchise" over the latter, even though the Super Mario Wiki prefers the use of the latter (which was the result of a proposal, but I do not know how much agreed to...

Scribble Circuit - winstein Edition (Challenge) For this year's annual Scribble challenge, known as the Scribble Circuit, the host decided to have more homework this time, in the form of challenges. They're optional challenges where each have their own twists that make them not as easy as they...

Looks like SEGA managed to secure the Olympic license again, probably inferring that whatever initiative the Olympic games previously done didn't do well. Whether or not that means a new Mario & Sonic game would be released, that's uncertain, but Sonic is sure to be there. For me? I hope we got...

I just missed a day on the Reddit streak, where it's almost reached 365 days. Oh well, I'll live. At least I don't have to routinely login Reddit to just upvote any more. Thank you for reading.

The fact that Mario's character is twisted into something grotesque puts me off the whole thing. In fact, I do not know how many Mario characters are still their true selves. I guess Luigi is one where his personality still resembles the original Luigi, but what other characters are still true...

OK, I see. With that in mind, I agree with Lara Croft being probably the best option of the guest fighter, or perhaps a more daring option could be Arle from Puyo Puyo. Thank you for reading.

Ring Fit Adventure is in the running for the next Super Smash Bros. if popularity in terms of sales and reception are factors. And like Inkling, the female version of the character is the forefront of the game. Thank you for reading.

I find it funny that the best way to kneecap a character's (or anything) chances of winning is to completely remove the award. Like removing the Worst Enemy award so that Hammer Bro. won't be winning it, or removing Most Disappointing Game because Paper Mario: Sticker Star keeps winning. Thank...

It's nice for those who don't have the games, but I feel like I've had my share after finishing Super Mario Galaxy (only Mario's campaign though). It's the same reason I didn't bother with 3D All-Stars even though it was in print, mainly because I played the games contained in it that I didn't...

I would've like Wario and Waluigi to show up too! Yeah, I know it's very unlikely but I feel like they shouldn't miss out on the fun. Thank you for reading.

I reverted most of the edits for Melody Pianissima. However, at a glance, it seems that the Luigi's Mansion portrait ghosts pages might all be touched on. If anyone can check the edits, please feel free to do so. Thank you for reading.

I currently cannot tell if there's still a strong pushback for Waluigi for various reasons, or that he's one of the more accepted requested fighters. Regardless, I think he's currently the biggest fighter omission for the Mario series. I think Yoshi sort of lacks a strong secondary fighter...

Pac-Man World 2 Re-Pac is the best announcement in this direct! The Adventures of Elliot is also very interesting. What I like about Pac-Man World 2 Re-Pac is how they expand the game. The first game didn't really expand much, though it's still a decent package. With the second game? There's...

I've made changes to the following Wario Land 3 bosses pages based on this user's edits: Anonster Doll Boy Jamano Pesce Shoot Wolfenboss Wormwould Muddee (minor) Not edited because edits are deemed to be fine: Helio Octo Rudy That took a while, but this should contribute to the reversion...

I can't deny that I love the weirdness granted by the Weird Mushroom, so that's what I picked. Blue Shell is tempting though... With that said, I wonder if the Hammer Suit would be wanted if it applies the same logic as the Boomerang Suit, which is that the character is NOT given a fire...

I just noticed that the Wario Land 3 bosses pages got affected when I noticed my research for Jamano was affected by information removal (one change was the amount of time in seconds that the skulls appear). Is listing links like this necessary, or it's not required? (Link...

Head in the Clouds Believe it or not, this comic was originally meant to be a backup comic. That means it was to be published on a rainy day when I need something to fill for the month. The main comic was done before then, but when I decided to push it for that issue, I also completed the...

I like Miis, so its a shame they're not available as often as they used to be. It's why their inclusion in Mario Golf: Super Rush feels unusual yet refreshing, because it's rare that they get included in non-Mii titles. Especially when Mario Kart World excluded them this time around. From what...

I really think the papercraft style is the way forward, especially after the series goes into the high-definition. It looks amazing that way. As for the outlines, that didn't bother me mainly because I feel that they wanted to experiment with the look (remember that this was the first HD Paper...

Evenly Matched I don't know if anyone asks for it, but I wish more Mario games allow you to pick the same character. Only Mario Kart embraces this fully, while other series have restrictions (such as Mario Tennis Aces only allowing this in 1 vs 1). In one of my original sketches, I drew two...

I do not know if this is an unpopular opinion or if I've mentioned this before, but I think the tropical themes in Mario Kart sounded similar that they are the least exciting music tracks for those games. I do not remember where it was said but I think I recall how Miyamoto remarked that the...

I have a feeling that this is posted to only get affirmation on this opinion, which in this case then yes, Waluigi didn't appear in the games that a subsection of fans only count. But... I have more to say on this matter, so if you are only interested, you could read on. ------- Based on what...

Perhaps if the new RPG stars a character that didn't already have their own series, then it's worth going for this idea. This means that because Peach, Donkey Kong, and Wario already have their own games or series, they didn't need an RPG. Wario especially, given how his home series is already...

I liked New Super Mario Bros. U and its companion game New Super Luigi U (the whole package is optimal instead of one or the other). It might not look like it but it plays very well. If there's only one thing I would've liked, it's for Mario to get playable in Luigi U instead of just copying his...

Is it too late to say that I find this Thwomp to be rather odd? This is the design first used in Super Mario 64. Not only is this version of Thwomp an outlier, but this design has been used across generations! But I have to say that there is a certain charm with this design, and that Thwomp...

I know these characters are like one of the more popular ones, but I think I like Daisy and Waluigi but didn't really say as much about them. Characters more obscure or limited in appearance are generally talked more fondly upon, whereas Daisy and Waluigi have more criticisms associated to...

Although not a fan favourite among Sonic fans, one day it would be nice to see all the Deadly Six characters playable in one game. Thus far only two of them appear at most (Zavok and Zazz). I kind of feel that they added variety to the Sonic cast of characters by not being animals for a change...

The fact that it's more than a month ahead of its broadcast feels like it would have something major to go along with it. At the very least, there would be Z-A and Champions. Thank you for reading.
