post any random Mario thought on your mind

This is a weird thought but how can the bootleg Mario games from Russia for the Sega Genesis mentioned in Patmac's YT video have not been taken down by Nintendo? It's making the company look bad with what seems to be low quality Scratch games and terrifying game over screens.

There's so many Mario bootlegs out there, it'd be impossible for them to take them all down. It's also really old.

I know lol but those from Russia just take the cake compared to others
 
If you take a look at the development for New Super Mario Bros. Wii, there is an unused chicken suit powerup that was scrapped . It would have been very bizzare if it actually got used, but what abilities do you think it would have given players if it were made a reality?

Here's how I picture a chicken powerup:
  • Mario and co. would gain the ability to peck at blocks and foes in front of them. Think of it as a shorter-ranged but quicker elephant strike.
  • Gain the ability to run faster because chickens are fast! Have you ever tried to catch one? A quick Google search will tell you that they run at 9 miles per hour.
  • Sadly, you won't gain the ability to fly, because chickens can't fly.

I would say egg projectiles that are fired directly downward and have an awkward football bounce pattern. I don't think there's a plausible second power, but if there had to be a second power it could be "reduce falling speed" based on how chickens still have wings.
 
I doubt chicken suit will become a reality tho and tbh I think for a bird themed powerup, the penguin suit fits Mario aesthetics better
 
Ah, Paper Mario: The Thousand-Year Door. I have to admit, I didn't understand the love for the game and thought it was massively overrated, but when I watched Emile's Let's Play of it, it opened my eyes to just how amazing this game was, especially its story and characters. Though the story got upstaged by Super Paper Mario, at the time it was considered the pinnacle of Mario storytelling and even video game storytelling in general.

I have seen the light, my brethren! I am not worthy!

But seriously, does anyone else want to recall why the game is so loved, for those who are living under a rock?
