I've been planning this for a while, having played most of the mainline Kirby games now and wanting to compile my opinions of them into a single thread. This thread will only cover the 12 main Kirby of the Stars games, mind you; you won't be seeing Air Ride, Canvas Curse, or Epic Yarn on this...
Yes, I know this series has been around for almost three years now, but as the series finale's going to air this week and I needed a place to compile all my thoughts on this overlooked masterpiece, I made this thread.
Also, I'd just like to say how fantastic the soundtrack is. I'm usually...

Hey, so I got a Switch Lite for my birthday a couple weeks back, and today I started playing Kirby Star Allies on it. The performance is terrible compared to my experience on my regular Switch. The music frequently cuts off, and the game crashes a lot more than it should. I've mostly...
With the end of Thanksgiving and the beginning of December, Christmas is just around the corner. Hard to believe it came around so soon...
Anyway, thoughts? Plans? Random Christmas stuff you want to post? This is the place for it!

John Kirby was the lawyer who defended Nintendo in the Donkey Kong Universal trial of olden days, and was also the namesake of our favorite pink puffball. You led a good life, and you will be...

Announced in the Direct today, to release later tonight! It's a free-to-start sequel to Team Kirby Clash and Team Kirby Clash Deluxe, with online play!
Thoughts? I'm really excited to play it myself!
EDIT: Reveal trailer:
You might remember me as the writer of Tips and Tricks, a level analysis section in Strategy Wing I wrote for a little while before relegating to a volunteer basis. I haven't sent in any sections since, but it still held a special place in my heart. But 150 is a special occasion, and as such...
So, I linked a Japanese Nintendo Account in order to try to download the Captain Toad free week offer (which was apparently already over by the time I got it linked, unfortunately). I then deleted the account once I saw I had no need for it. However, the Nintendo Switch News still shows...
A neat new feature in the new software allows the forum to autosave your posts if you leave the tab. But, is there a way to disable this feature? There are some drafts I just want to get rid of, and backspace doesn't really help because the drafts keep coming back. If I want to save a draft I...
Personally I really like all the cool new features, even if a couple SMF features went away as a result. The layout will take some getting used to, but I think over time I'll come to like it better than SMF.
What are your top three most-played Switch games? You can access the Activity Log by going to your user profile and scrolling down to "play activity".

June 11, everyone. It may be just me, but the eleven months since last E3 have gone by so fast. But now that we know when the big day will come, I figured that we might as well start posting wish lists. Here's mine:
Just post your favorite Smash remixes from each Smash game. Like so:
64: Gourmet Race
Melee: SMB Ground Theme, Gourmet Race
Brawl: King Dedede's Theme, Meta Knight's Revenge, 02 Battle, Kirby Boss Theme Medley, Gourmet Race
3DS/Wii U: Forest/Nature Area; Try, Try Again; Gerudo Valley
Ultimate...
I think I made one of these in the distant past, but rather than digging it out from way back when, I figured I'd just make a new one.
The rules are simple. Count until I post, after which you reset. The only catch? I tend to post in these kinds of things quite often, so prepare for a lot of...
Currently, our baby articles (see Baby Mario for reference) cover all baby appearances of the character (including the Yoshi's Island games) and not just the ones in which they appear independently from their adult counterpart (such as Partners in Time and Mario Kart). However, this is terribly...
I've almost beaten Partners in Time, and I've reached the last Save Album. However, Stuffwell has warned me that if I save there, I will never be able to return to a previous section in the game, and he gave me the option to go back to my last save to finish up what I needed to. So, what...
We all know that boss fights are supposed to be challenging. But some bosses...let's just say they go way overboard. Some of those bosses are just too difficult to be fair--and sometimes to the extent that they aren't any fun. That's what we'll focus on here. Just post the most frustrating...
Welcome to YFJ's Crafty Creations! With my newfound interest in game modding, particularly Smash modding, I thought I might make a Fan Creations thread to call my own. I'll post my various projects here, and give progress reports on said projects. I may even release my modpacks on Google...
So a couple weeks ago, I modded my Wii, and I'm looking to do the same to my Wii U. I know that I could easily mod the virtual Wii Menu in the same way I did to my Wii, but the Wii U menu is another story. I'm seeing that modding the Wii U menu requires a DS VC game (which I don't have) and...
I thought this thread would best fit here as opposed to another board, even though this isn't directly related to the Super Mario Wiki. Which of the NIWA wikis are you a registered user on and have contributed at least one edit to?
For me, it's these:
-WiKirby (active)
-Super Mario Wiki...
My 3DS has been broken for quite some time now, and ever since then I've been interested in getting a 2DS due to its cheap price (official refurbished for $60 USD) and the extra durability (the right hinge became the downfall of my old XL model, but that's missing here) But I've heard it's a...
Just list all the games you've ever beaten, 100% or otherwise. As these lists may be a bit long, you might want to use spoiler tags.
Here are my lists (sorted by platform). Games listed in red were beaten 100%.
So I have plans to buy that Mario Maker 2DS since my old NSMB2 XL broke. But it says the game is pre-installed rather than coming with a download code. If I were to do a system transfer to it, would Mario Maker be overwritten? And if so, will I be able to redownload it? Thanks!

They should have just made the clue "successor to Nintendo GameCube" rather than "predecessor to Nintendo Switch".
So I'm looking to get Mario 64, but I'm not sure which version to get. The original has better controls, yet the remake is portable and has much more content (including :yoshi:). I don't think the controls of the remake would bother me too much, but given its classic status I'd like to try the...
And how long will Nintendo be supplying them? I want to snag at least one of them, but won't be able to until early next year. I hope they don't stop making them before I can get them...

So, this was announced last month, but no one made a thread for it. Surprised they decided to port a spin-off instead of Crystal Shards or Return to Dream Land, but this game looks pretty good! I missed out on it back in 2010, so I'm looking forward to this port.
I was bored, so I decided to compile a list of the sales of core Mario titles. All sales figures are taken from Wikipedia's "List of best-selling Nintendo _______ video games" articles as of October 6, 2018, and are listed in millions.
I've been interested in playing Wii games like Mario Kart Wii online, but Nintendo Wi-Fi's been long dead and I have to install Wiimmfi patches to play online. They seem to require the Homebrew Channel.
The problem is, I don't want to install any unlicensed software on my Wii. I put...
Must be a super-rare version of the game. Nintendo doesn't print it anymore, and Amazon sells it for $90. Which is odd, considering that Nintendo still sells the standalone New Mario U for $60, just like the bundle. I guess it was intended as a limited edition?
But this is the ultimate...
Typical counting game, but anyone can reset the count...whenever they feel like it! It's a matter of fate as the count resets at random! (UPDATE: Let's make this even more fun and let anyone change the count however they want! Then TRUE chaos will break out! :bowser: :bowser: :bowser:)

Just post whatever you most recently got from My Nintendo.
For 200 Platinum Points, I got a 30% discount on Super Mario 64. It expires November 2nd, so I'd better use it soon!
Basically, games you like that get a lot of hate. Please note that topics like these are highly subjective, and not everyone is going to agree. I'll start:
Super Mario Sunshine (GCN)
It's pretty unfortunate that such a great game shows so many symptoms of a rushed game. It is certainly a...
https://bgr.com/2017/01/13/super-mario-odyssey-rom-hack/
We all know about Super Mario Odyssey...right? I guess not, because I just found an article about another game of the same name. Super Mario Odyssey (2004) is a ROM hack of Super Mario World (1990). It came long before Super Mario...
Main series only; Yoshi's Island, Maker, and Run aren't included. Listed below:
Super Mario Bros. (NES, 1985)
Super Mario Bros.: The Lost Levels (FDS, 1986)
Super Mario Bros. 2 [USA] (NES, 1988)
Super Mario Bros. 3 (NES, 1988)
Super Mario Land (Game Boy, 1989)
Super Mario World (SNES, 1990)...
So...I know that the Wii Shop is closing down. I can't add Wii Points anymore. But I found a download code for Sonic 4 on Amazon. I found a menu still on the Wii Shop for using download codes. So I want to know: if I buy this download code, can I play Sonic 4 on my Wii? Or are download...
I feel like I once made a similar thread to this one, but I couldn't find it, so it's probably old enough that a new one is justified.
Anyway, here you can rank the mainstream Mario games! You can rank spin-off series as well, but please separate those into a different list.
Here's my list...
We have one for Paper Mario, so I don't see any harm in making one for the M&L series as well.
Anyway, this is a thread where you can discuss anything about the Mario & Luigi RPG series. This includes ideas for the next game, thoughts on previous games, speculation on the upcoming Bowser's...
I've heard mixed thoughts about DS games on Wii U VC. Some games, like Yoshi's Island DS, are outright unplayable on VC, while others like New Super Mario Bros. seem to work fine (sans multiplayer). Where does Partners in Time fall here? I've heard that some battles and Bros. Items don't work...
