Unpopular opinions about the Mario series

MnSG, doesn't that combo leave you with a 4.75 acceleration stat? I guess that's still the best acceleration you can get with a Cruiserweight character, but even so wouldn't the other type of glider make more sense? You still get the same acceleration with slightly better air speed and handling.

The Parachute glider offers a small mini-turbo boost, which is not the case for the Super Glider. Also, the Parachute glider actually has a better air handling stat, but that is a rather moot point in the long run.

Anyway, I've often found that a 4.75/6 mini-turbo stat makes it possible to perform up to 6 hops before the full power mini-turbo ends; this helps when trying to utilize fire-hopping at its best potential; a 4.5/6 mini-turbo stat only really made it possible to perform up to 5 hops before the full power mini-turbo ended. Less than 2/6 mini-turbo, and you'd be fortunate to get in 4 hops before the full power mini-turbo ends.

I do too and I never understood the fans's hate for it.

Same for Mario Party 4 also
And in the Mario Party subject, I don't get why the first Mario Party is so loved, especially when so many people literally hurt their hands while playing it lol

So do I. It's my third favorite Mario Party.

In Mario Kart 8, I don't care in the slightest about firehopping. I just play the game for fun, and many of the combos I use aren't that fast to begin with:

For courses with large amounts of underwater driving, I swap the Slick tires for the Slim tires, and for courses without gliding or those were it is optional (like N64 Yoshi Valley and GCN Sherbet Land), I swap the Super Glider for the Peach Parasol, since it boosts mini-turbo by a small amount. It's not much but every little bit helps.

Mario Party 1 is my least favorite of the first 8 Mario Parties.
 
Mario Party 8 had pretty terrible 30 fps board gameplay (the rest of the GameCube Mario Parties had 60 fps) and no widescreen support in freaking 2007. It had technical issues that no other Mario Party had and that's not a great sign.
