Unpopular opinions about the Mario series

[Princess of Tennis]

It's been itching at me ever since somebody mentioned it

E.Gadd and Toadsworth are canon yet they haven't entered Kart yet. C'mon Nintendo, respect the elders!

 

[El Zorro]

Pink Gold Peach and R.O.B and are more important

Toadsworth probably died of stroke. His last new role was in Dream Team, 2013, over 6 years ago.

 

[El Zorro]

I wonder what happened to Stanley the bugman too.

 

[Mcmadness]

He became an environmentalist.

 

[Captain Man]

He became a vegan

 

[El Zorro]

And foreman spike?

Oh yeah Bowser killed him in Wrecking Crew 98's ending.

 

[Princess of Tennis]

Stanley the Bugman and Foreman Spike are potential "smexier than Luigi" contestants

My unpopular opinion. Waluigi is the best character.

 

[Redshift]

My unpopular opinion. Waluigi is the best character.

 

[Princess Mario]

My unpopular opinion. Waluigi is the best character.

Yeah despite my "love-to-hate" attitude toward Waluigi, I can't deny either that he has given Mario spinoffs games way more entertainment that I really appreciate his presence.

 

[Twirlerena]

Not only does the character get hate, but I get hate because Waluigi fans have been labeled as “toxic harassers”. I can’t go anywhere without people bringing up smash bros when I wanna talk about Waluigi...

People tend to apply any idea they have about some people to all individuals in the same demographic. It's pretty stupid honestly, like, how can you claim to suddenly have information on every single person ever who likes Waluigi?

Don't get me wrong, I am not at all a fan of the man but I have absolutely no bone to pick with those who do like him.

Well, one thing you can say for certain.

Every single Waluigi fan likes Waluigi.

 

[Rinka Hayami]

Damn.

That's it. You just destroyed my argument.

 

[MetaWeegee]

My unpopular opinionFact: Waluigi is the best character.

FTFY

Not only does the character get hate, but I get hate because Waluigi fans have been labeled as “toxic harassers”. I can’t go anywhere without people bringing up smash bros when I wanna talk about Waluigi...

What makes it worse is that literally only 2 or 3 Waluigi fans harassed Sakurai over Smash.

 

[Princess of Tennis]

Sakurai was literally harassed ?

 

[Shy Guy on Wheels]

Sakurai was literally harassed ?

Two kids made a 9/11 joke at Sakurai, and people jumped all over it, representing an entire fanbase as bad using only two people as evidence.

 

[Redshift]

Sakurai was literally harassed ?

being the director of a hugely popular game series, i'd imagine this sort of reception would be disgustingly daily for him

 

[Starfire]

I would say liking Super Paper Mario more than TTYD would have been very controversial in the past but now not so much.

Other than that my most controversial opinion is probably liking Mario Party 9 more than Super Mario 64 but that's only really because I played Galaxy 1 & 2 years before SM64 due to growing up in the Wii generation (hence SM64 felt like a large downgrade rather than the revolution it was to most at the time) and similarly playing MP9 as my first and so far only Mario Party game meant that I wasn't prejudiced against it and even now I don't really know anything else. Without personal bias, I would probably say Super Mario 64 is the better game, particularly when you consider that it is sixteen years older.

 

[Redshift]

I would derive more enjoyment from Mario Party 9 than I would Super Mario 64 so there's that.

 

[Mcmadness]

I would rather play a non Mario game than Mario Party.

 

[Shy Guy on Wheels]

how is playing a non-mario game a bad thing?

 

[Ribbon]

Mario Party is definitely not one of my favorite games but it's a great way to kill some time with friends. It gets boring fast in solo play though.

I would rather play a non Mario game than Mario Party.

Kirby falls under non-Mario so that means I agree.

 

[Starfire]

I always play solo because none of my friends are into MP.
