The Mario appreciation thread.

"Aren't I done yet??"

"There's MORE!?!"

"ANOTHER door!?!"

Those are amazing. Why didn't they use them?

This is why Mario should talk.

Mario also has this drunk-sounding laughter too.

Wa-ha-hoo-huuuuuueggh.

I would actually love it if they allowed Martinet to turn Mario into a character who tries to remain jovial but can't help but questions all the bull*bleep* he encounters or has to live through.

Shame Miyamoto would never allow it, but one can dream.

I would love that.

Mario also says, "Hello, door..." :P

Miyamoto isn't just "a developer". He is the creator of Mario and, to my understanding, he wields tremendous influence over a significant amount of things the company does.

I think it is pretty safe to say that if Miyamoto says Mario is not to say anything besides "yahoo" and "wahaa", then that and nothing else is what Mario will say until hell freezes over.

But Miyamoto isn't really heavily involved in Mario games anymore. Mario is the company mascot, if they wanted to change him thats something only the highest people in the company can decide.

Disney is the same way with Mickey Mouse.

Didn't he single handedly change Sticker Star to be more like a platformer and less like the traditional Paper Mario games?

Didn't they say that Miyamoto is more involved this time, though?

Thats nowhere near the level of changing the mascot of a company.

Also he only requested they only use pre-existing characters and less emphasis on plot, the rest was all IS doing.

You know, I think you're misinterpreting what I say, because the way you're talking, you seem to think I'm suggesting Miyamoto wants to change Mario.

The opposite is in fact the case. I'm saying in this hypothetical scenario he is vetoing changes to be made to Mario.

Like, am I to infer from all of this that Miyamoto's word would not carry any weight in such a discussion at all? Because that sounds kind of ridiculous.

 

[Mcmadness]

I know what your saying. What I'm saying is that ultimately thats not his decision.

 

[Lin Beifong]

that sounds kind of ridiculous.

 

[Mcmadness]

Of course it does. Its corporate.

 

[Lin Beifong]

Well then, regardless of who exactly made it their life goal to keep Mario devoid of everything that could accidentally make children think, they would not allow happy but slightly snarky Mario to happen.
