post any random Mario thought on your mind

15 years ago today, New Super Mario Bros Wii was released in North America.

At the time, it was exciting to have 4 player coop in a 2D Mario game. And it was cool to see the Koopalings again.

I still remember when the Koopalings' new design went out, and it was exciting to see the Koopalings made their debut in 3d, which did felt weird at the time. People were kind of divided in how Iggy looked, from the longer arms, shorter legs, longer body, and people made fun of his hair and said it looked like a banana or something. I thought Iggy looked really strange at first, but I think I did ultimately welcome the change since he was originally too close to Lemmy. I still don't know why Lemmy had a ponytail. Anyway, I liked the most that the Koopalings got different shell colors; there were too many shells colored green at the time.

Nowadays I don't know how people view the old Iggy Koopa. I guess the new design just grew on people.
 
They need to add the Item Box as an item on its own in Mario Kart. If you roll it, the roulette starts moving again, and there's always a chance you may get an item box again from that, which in turn sets the roulette rolling again. And then there's always a chance you may get an item box once more from that. And it sometimes never stops.

They should do this and add a playable Brick Block.
 
"Supermarionation" is a real word and it would cool if something like the next big major 3D Mario platformer (follow-up to Odyssey) is named something equally grand, "Super Mario Nation" and part of the plot involves Mushroom Kingdom being turned into a puppet state... literally. The word "Marionette" exists... guys, this could be the cusp of something great in terms of word play.
