Here's the last revision of the proposals page before the jokes got wrapped up.

(The poll is just for fun and should not be taken into account. This is a small matter raised for the consideration of the moderators and the webmaster.) I noticed new users tend to misuse the General Discussion forum by posting things in it that are better suited for the Marioverse forum. I...

And, more to the point of the Marioverse forum, how do you feel about their in-game representation from any particular standpoint (topographically, musically etc.)? I've been to Amsterdam, Athens (though I wasn't even in primary school when I went there, so I barely remember anything), Berlin...

Yes, folks, this is true. The last announcement of the September 2023 Nintendo Direct is that TTYD is being remade for the Switch. The original gameplay is there, along with the beloved characters and expressive enemy designs, in squeaky-clean graphical fidelity! Paper Mario is back!

And the award for the most tech illiterate question goes to... No, but seriously, it's not at all clear to me. When I use a metadata extractor, I don't know which variable corresponds to that. According to the wiki, Bowser's NSMBWii artwork has colour correction metadata, a trait that should...

List of official Mario Kart 8 Deluxe tournaments I added as much information about those tournaments as I could glean from promotional material and gameplay footage, but there are still some missing particulars, such as rulesets and in-game names, that I couldn't find on the Internet. The game...

I would have put this is in the fan art thread, but I think the scale of the project demands focus befitting a king. From the same people who made the music video for that Pirate Scorn cover by Alestorm. The production quality is truly out of the ordinary for a fan project...

Is there some sort of hard line regarding which staff members behind a game or other piece of media, credited or not, can be given articles on the wiki? Are, say, the animators of Donkey Kong Jet Race eligible for articles? Or any of the concept artists behind the Mario + Rabbids games? I'm...

Post any instance you can think of when false/inaccurate information from the Mario Wiki propagated so deeply in the Mario fanbase that it ended up being what people generally accept as true to this day. What I can think of: 1. (Kinda) the whole English Mario Encyclopedia thing, with fan-made...

Most Wario games have had music themes that served as a leitmotif within their game of origin, but none have ever exactly been promoted to being the signature franchise theme--at least, not to the degree of Mario's SMB overworld or Donkey Kong's Island Swing. Some of these themes have, however...

bring up and discuss your favourite popular fan theories regarding works of media (film, animation, literature, music, fine arts, video games, weather forecasts etc.) By "popular theory" i mean a theory that has gained some traction (and maybe even became long-standing) in certain circles, and...

https://huggingface.co/spaces/dalle-mini/dalle-mini enter a prompt and this AI will try to cook up whatever that thing is. as one would expect, it's not perfect. I looked up "Baby Rosalina in World War I' and it gave me this: I edited out an example because I was concerned about its...

via Bloomberg https://www.bloomberg.com/news/articles/2022-05-18/saudi-arabia-s-pif-adds-to-games-push-with-5-nintendo-stake This follows similar acquisitions of stakes in Capcom and Nexon. The fund has now become Nintendo's fifth biggest shareholder. Because the Saudi government didn't offer...

As of 17th of May 2022, 16:44 ET, these two fellas are the only OG Super Mario Bros. enemies that have yet to appear in any way, shape, or form in a 3D Mario title. In this thread we speculate on the reasons they were omitted for so long and, chiefly, we spitball ideas for roles these two...

Occasionally, I request certain users to review my wiki contributions in private. However, I find this procedure to be a bit invasive and selective. I'm opening this thread because I see some use in giving wiki editors a chance to learn from their mistakes through the volunteering engagement...

https://www.theverge.com/2022/1/18/22889258/microsoft-activision-blizzard-xbox-acquisition-call-of-duty-overwatch As for official statements from Microsoft that make any sort of tangents or allusions to, well, those things that transpired at Actiblizzard, Phil Spencer said the following:

As you may already know, the Dr. Mario World mobile game is set to end its services 1 November 2021, less than a week from this thread’s conception. In anticipation of this event, the game’s official social media accounts—namely, those on Facebook and Twitter—have ceased making any more...

A few months ago, there was a proposal to allow coverage of name spellings from authorised closed captions of Mario cartoons. The proposal failed, two reasonings cited against it being that names aren’t made official just by proxy with Nintendo and that the captions themselves are too...

The shadowdrop of the century: a sequel to Mario + Rabbids Kingdom Battle. https://www.nintendo.com/games/detail/mario-plus-rabbids-sparks-of-hope-switch/ From the Nintendo website: Everyone ready for Rabbid Rosalina?

This thread is for discussing anything related to the international singing contest Eurovision. AMERICANS STAY OUT. Anyone is welcome to participate! At the time of this thread's conception, the latest Eurovision event took place just 3 days ago. What were your thoughts on it? I did not watch...

I’ve revisited a couple of episodes recently. As a former lifelong fanatic of this show who acknowledges it still has a strong cult following, I’ve got to say my return left a disappointing taste. The nostalgia completely wiped out and my breadth of fictional media reaching new dimensions, I am...

One of the items you find in "Hey! Pikmin" is a 3D rendered replica of a Donkey Kong Land cartridge, complete with the artwork plastered on the actual ROM cartridge. Naturally, this would imply that Hard Hat, Hogwash, Krusha and everyone else seen on that cartridge make a cameo in said game...

Would you like to share a Mario-related video—be it gameplay footage, mod showcase, or animation? Post it here! Keep in mind that it needs to be within the forum’s rules, so do not post explicit content. This thread has been repurposed from being a host of exclusively animated content to...

Those of you who have played Donkey Kong Country: Tropical Freeze up to a certain point might have witnessed the mysterious aquatic apparition that I will henceforth recall. The tenebrous straits of Sea Breeze Cove conceal oddities of unheard stature and aspect, greater than even the most...

So, some poor no-good winds up in hell after dying, and you're tasked with giving them a punishment that will last for eternity. Satan, being the Mario fanboy that he is, asks if you can make the punishment Mario-related this time. The question is, what repetitive chores do you know of in any...

The mobile app version of YouTube has a Story feature like the one on Snapchat and Instagram that allows you to share short video clips (aka "stories") for your subscribers to see. Nintendo's channel recently posted a story in which they present the most popular answers from a survey they've...

https://www.cartoonbrew.com/anime/yoichi-kotabe-renowned-animator-and-character-designer-gets-exhibition-in-japan-199206.html To commemorate Yoichi Kotabe's work in animation and video games, an exhibition is open at the Shiinoki Cultural Complex in Kanazawa, Japan, until December 6, 2020...

Joy-Con Drift is an innovative feature in the Nintendo Switch system that allows the system itself to play any game in tandem with human players. This is done by enabling the system partial control over the analog sticks for an indefinite period of time, ensuring that players can kick back and...

I just found these cute Mario drawings I made a few years ago and I'd like to share them with you!

Play Nintendo has a recipe for Inkling-shaped cookies that I would like to put here for posterity. Inkipedia doesn't seem to document it as of yet and it seems too nice to lose in future. Link: https://play.nintendo.com/news-tips/tips-tricks/splatoon-squid-cookies-recipe/

As many of you know, subscribing to the NSO enables access to a library of NES and SNES games that you can play and complete and feel proud of yourself for completing them. However, it's uncertain how these libraries will be handled upon the service's inevitable end, years from now. Making them...

The Scottish band Alestorm, famous for their rummages in the "pirate metal" genre, have released a new album called Curse of the Crystal Coconut. Apart from the title being an obvious callback to the Crystal Coconuts from the Donkey Kong franchise, the album also features a cover of one of the...

In templates that feature a table within a table, such as Template:MKTProfile and Template:PlayNintendoQuiz, the second entry on a row with only two entries is always aligned unusually higher than its partners. Take a look here: In the first example, you can see how RMX Choco Island 1R is...

While you guys were out there playing that newfangled Super Mario Maker 2 game, I went and played another Mario editor-based game, Super Mario Flash 2. It's a decade-old browser game that used to have a pretty active community around 2011-2012, but it eventually died out, possibly in the wake of...

https://www.behance.net/gallery/84506441/Warios-All-Wet Found this shared on the Wario subreddit. Featuring Wario, Waluigi, Mona (from WarioWare), a certain Wario Land character whose appearance took me by surprise, and a giant squid. I really liked it! The characters are nicely written.

Whenever I'm uploading previews for Play Nintendo games, I'm picking the license that suits the content of each. However, I find that this makes licensing inconsistent across all of these pictures. Some of them feature character artwork or simply a screenshot from the game they promote, but they...

I was looking to cite our "no-strategy" rule in an edit summary, but... I couldn't find it! It's not in the writing guidelines, even though I distinctly remember seeing it clearly somewhere in there--not to mention the countless times it's been evoked by other users and used as a basis for...

It's been long since I last played Super Mario Advance, but something from that game has been burned into my mind ever since then for being so... uuhhh... mysterious? I'm talking about a blue spear head-like thing that stays in one place and shakes up and down. There are two in the game, both...

There's this website called talktotransformer.com where you enter a short synopsis and an artificial intelligence generates a story based on it. Entering Mario-related material would be nothing short of absurd; in fact, I'm here to show you what the AI made for me based on my input (written in...

I was thinking about this the other day, and seems like a harmless idea. What if we make lists of voice actors for various ''Mario''-related media in other languages? That would mostly include the cartoons, but WarioWare Gold would also also covered. We could also specify the characters each...

Mario's world isn't necessarily built to make sense, and sometimes the lack of logic can easily skip over the barriers of common sense. This thread is for discussing little, absolutely unimportant things in the Mario series that aggravate you for some reason or another. I'll start with two: 1...

don't know where to put this, but here you have roughly 40% of all level articles on the wiki (which is still a lot even if it's a minority)

I think it should. The myth of Odysseus must remain alive in our collective spirit for as long as humans will tread the earth. Ok, sorry. I obviously mean Super Mario Odyssey. It seems that the spin-offs that came after that game were less bothered to keep it relevant. Compare this to other...

Welp... it's official. It's explicitly stated now in Mario + Rabbids that Donkey Kong lives in a separate dimension from Mario. "Somwhere in another dimension", written white on black. It seems to be the first ever clear statement regarding DK's connection to Mario's world, rather than...

Haven't seen this posted here, even though it's several months old at the time of this post. They nailed the execution, from the choppy sprites to the animation. Really cool!

I've always wondered if people would be more interested in getting a game if they read a good article about it on Super Mario Wiki. All these efforts to bring some articles to feature status--do they pay off practically? What I have in mind when I edit the wiki is to benefit the reader in such...

For "Mario vs. Donkey Kong: Tipping Stars", Nintendo used to release weekly levels in the online community. However, they would delete them shortly after (dumb move IMO), and there's no gameplay footage with them on the Internet. We don't even know their names. Pity. But screenshots with these...

Whenever I am logged out of the wiki and on an article about a Mario + Rabbids Kingdom Battle enemy, the side infobox and the ad seem to push the whole text all the way to the bottom, creating a huge blank space. This is really unpleasant to look at, and, for the record, the problem is existent...

I'm conceiving a page for all the extras in "Donkey Kong Country Tropical Freeze" in my sandbox. Basically I'm trying to include info on how to unlock images, soundtrack and dioramas in the game. But my main focus are the images, since they outnumber the other extras. I decided to list them in...

Hey guys! Some of you are already aware of this, and have used information from it on the wiki. I know for sure, but I feel like it needs to be somehow popularized in the community. There is a dude on Imgur (many thanks and props to him) who has uploaded a hefty collection of albums, which...
