Your headcanons

[J-Yoshi64]

Mario's height is 5'4" (162.5cm) which is 64 inches, because I want my N64 jokes dagnabbit. But it only works properly in inches unfortunately.
HOWEVER! This can be used for more. See the chart below.

Using this size chart and my own height (5'6" or 66"/167.5cm) we can determine that Mario's nose is about the same size of an irl human's head, or 6"/15cm in diameter.

Luigi seems to be about 6" taller than Mario in the chart, putting him at 5'10", with Daisy probably an inch or two taller. Peach is a full foot taller than Mario at 6'4".
And I still put Pauline at this height rather than whatever Odyssey did, so she's probably about a foot above me at 6'6".

And why do I reject Odyssey's height? Observe:

Odyssey is in clear violation of the chart and should not be trusted for heights.

Thank you for coming to my TED Talk.

What sucks about the Odyssey height is that it's used for Gmod too and thus you can't really make pictures because Mario seems to struggle even reaching for the door knob and it just ain't right.

I have a couple grievances with this chart:

• Bullet Bill, Boo, and Lakitu should be at ground level to get a more accurate size.
• Dry Bones is slightly taller (something you can’t really notice unless you zoom in) than Koopa Troopa and Koopa Paratroopa, despite being the undead version of both.
• Diddy Kong has his tail up, so his real height would be up to his hat.
• Piranha Plant is in it’s pipe, meaning that P. Plant’s actual height is much shorter.

And Wario, the most important character, is covered by that stupid oversized bikini-wearing Little Shop of Horrors.

• Dry Bones is slightly taller (something you can’t really notice unless you zoom in) than Koopa Troopa and Koopa Paratroopa, despite being the undead version of both.

I think Dry Bones is standing more upright, which is why they appear taller than the Koopas.

Tbf Dry Bones anatomy doesn't 100% line up with Koopa either

lmao i always made mario 5'6 and luigi 6'1 cuz i dont wanna have men the same height as me LOLLLOL (though that does make luigi and polnareff the same height)

i hate how odyssey made mario so fucking small like the ugly realism part of the artstyle wasnt bad enough LMAO

 

[Koopa con Carne]

Wuhu Island is part of Mario's world. Wii Fit Trainer is a computer simulation modelled in-universe after New Donkers.

Ooooo I hate it too. I prefer how the Super Show did height, where Mario's reasonable. Or Super Smash Bros.

Hell he's shorter than Captain Toad in Odyssey. Ffs.

I think of Podoboos and Lava Bubbles as 2 separate species.

What are some of your Mario headcanons?

 

[Ultimatevaltryek123]

Mine Are:

Jumpman is Mario and Luigi's Dad, and Mario just took on his father's nickname Jumpman (The man in the photo on the tin trey is either non-canon or is Mario and Luigi's grandfather i.e. Jumpman's father)

The Koopalings are adopted, Koopa Kid is an artificial child created from Bowser's DNA and Bowser Jr is his only biological child

Dimentio is over 10 thousand years old, created the Dark Prognosticus, is older than the ancients themselves, and was manipulating Bleck's Father to make Bleck become the perfect pawn

Fawful was taught in science and engineering by E.Gadd

E.Gadd and Dr. Crygor are old college friends

Wario and Waluigi share the same father as Mario and Luigi

 

[J-Yoshi64]

The Elite Trio have always been traitors, and will betray Bowser again.

Yeah, I agree with all of those theories.

 

[Luciano Barone]

Okay, so, you know how The Super Mario Bros Movie is being produced by Illumination? Well, what do you think would have happened if the film was produced by Disney instead but still had much of the same general people working on it?



I mean, I don’t really care which company makes the movie and am perfectly fine with Illumination doing it; I am just curious what would happen if Disney did make the movie.

 

[Borp]

What does that have to do with headcanons?

 

[Ultimatevaltryek123]

Yeah, I agree with all of those theories.

Really?

 

[Luciano Barone]

What does that have to do with headcanons?

I don’t know; it was just something I was curious about that I wanted to share with you.

One time Mario ate a spoiled mushroom and fever dreamed the entire 1993 Mario movie. And that's how it fits in the marioverse.
Daisy's dad represented his food poisoning.

 

[Mcmadness]

King Boo normally works for Bowser until he gets a new gem for his crown that increases his power so he goes off on his own.

Also the way he got out of his portrait the first time was due to Bowser being the one who got him at the yard sale.

This is also when Bowser jr got his paint brush.

Most levels of Super Mario Odyssey are only specific locations within the kingdoms, the actual territory of the kingdoms is much larger and contains many areas where levels could be set.

The same goes with many other Mario-verse Levels and Locations.

People don't eat power-ups to use them, although some can be used as food or ingredients.

Certain characters are aware that the world is a video-game, although at ground level it's more complex to them than simply being mindless programs. It's somewhat similar to the movie Wreck-it-Ralph, or roughly like the theory that the universe is a simulation. (a theory that I don't personally accept based on the current evidence available to me.)

There are more female members of many species than there appears to be, most just don't differentiate their appearance much from their male counterparts.

Species genetically adapt to new environments a lot faster than the real world equivalent process of evolution, which explains the difference in appearance and abilities of enemies from game to game, as well as the abundance of subspecies. Of course, some species are mechanical or constructed in appearance.

Speaking of such species, I believe that inorganic objects are able to acquire a soul when they are made for a specific purpose.

Those are just a few of my ideas, I enjoy reading everyone else's thoughts as well. I also have ideas on what the future of the world would be like if the status quo of the Mario series was allowed to change and progress in time, but at that point it's more of an alternate universe scenario then a head-canon.

 

[Koops]

pretty sure the first one is outright canon, given you are specifically given the names of the regions you visit within the kingdom, e.g. you specifically visit New Donk City within the Metro Kingdom

 

[Mcmadness]

After the events of Bowser's inside Story, Fawful repented and joined the Church of the star sprites. He now lives a content life preaching about being good to others and sings hymns on sundays.

A society of ancients inhabited the mushroom world long before the Toads and Yoshis. They created the Koopa and subsequently wiped themselves out when some Koopas rebelled, leaving them behind.

The Mushroom Kingdom changes for every game.

Birdos have dense muscle mass, which is why the Turbo Birdo is the heaviest of the medium karts in Double Dash, Birdos are Power Sidekicks in Strikers Charged, Birdo has a weight stat in MKW, and why Birdo has 8/10 batting power in Super Sluggers.
