post any random Mario thought on your mind

Mario & Luigi games should have an option for two players.
I.E Superstar Saga was made accidentally two player accessible with the Gameboy Player attachment to the Gamecube. All controller inserts worked as Player 1, so theoretically with a second person in the room with you, you could agree with them that one of you controls Mario (a) and the other Luigi (b). It was fun, and would be even more fun if they made multiplayer on purpose.

I honestly can't blame you for making that comparison.

This article https://www.creativebloq.com/3d/vid...uper-mario-64s-lost-sequel-codename-mario-128 says Super Mario Sunshine "ended up including many of the elements that would have been used in Mario [128]".

I thought they always said Pikmin was what became of much of the Mario128 work. I guess it was the "128 Marios" animation that was used in Pikmin?

Donkey Kong Bananza is the first Donkey Kong non-reissue to not have a DKWiki article.

Maybe because the DK Wiki doesn't exist anymore?

In my opinion, the main baby characters are Baby Mario, Baby Luigi, Baby Peach, Baby Daisy, and Baby Rosalina. Baby Bowser could be included as well, although he is pretty much isolated from the rest for pretty much staying in the Yoshi games (with very few Mario games with him, like Mario & Luigi: Partners in Time).

It may be true that Baby Daisy and Baby Rosalina first appeared in the (first-party developed) Mario Kart games, but they have more appearances and have more merchandising. Whereas for the other two that first appears in a (third-party developed) main game Yoshi's Island DS, each only appear in like one other game each (Baby DK in Mario Super Sluggers, Baby Wario in Dr. Mario World).

Thank you for reading.

You know, I never wondered about this up until now, but...How do the Endless Stairs in Mario 64 work from a game programming angle? Like, how do you program such a thing and make it work as intended?

it resets Mario's position backwards every time he crosses a certain point, but does it in a way that it looks seamless.

You can see the magic behind it in the bottom screen in Super Mario 64 DS.

I wonder if you can bypass the reset if you're going slow enough (we know it can be be passed if you're going fast thanks to the Backwards Long Jump.)
