Up next is Booguette with M18 - Favorite Retro Game!

 

[Booguette]

Ladies and gentlemen, boys and girls, Toads and Koopas, guys, gals, and other pals, It is my honor to bring to you this year’s presentation for the Super Mario Boards Awards Ceremonies for FAVORITE RETRO GAME! My name’s Booguette, bread loving Boo and former ‘Shroom writer. Now without further ado, let’s get into the awards!

For these awards, I have written a small poem relating to each game. Enjoy!

5th place

Since this game first hit the 64
It's been loved by many
And is welcoming more

Recently announced, It’s coming back!
And it makes me happy
That in fifth place we have..

With 6.80 percent of the votes (99 votes), it’s Super Mario RPG: Legend of the Seven Stars! I have never played this game before, but I know that a large crowd of people have a special place for it in their hearts. I’m looking forward to trying the remake for the Switch!

4th place

A game known
For its secret rooms
Blow your whistle
I toot mine for The ’Shroom

With 8.66 percent of the votes (126 votes) and going at P >>>>>> speed, it's Super Mario Bros. 3! The third 2D Mario game (at least in America), but just one spot away from 3rd place in this award. However, that doesn’t mean there wasn’t a decent vote gap…

3rd place

A 3D game with a 2D style
A magical world full of charm and beguile
From mailmen to pink bob-ombs,
This year in Third place We’ll drop…

With 11.96 percent of the votes (174 votes), It’s Paper Mario! The first in a series of beloved games, Paper Mario was the start of modern Mario RPG games.

2nd Place

Multiply its placing by itself,
And you’ll get the Japanese name
Of this wonderful dinosaur world
In which you’ll explore in this 2D game.

Clapping, Charging, whatever you choose,
This game’s got a Chuck for that.
BOWSER spelled in neon lights
This game is where it’s at.

With 17.04 percent of the votes (248 votes), It’s Super Mario World! This is my personal favorite out of these retro titles (I haven’t played many of them though), so I’m happy it got second place!

Now, for the moment you’ve all been waiting for…

1st place

Beloved, Revered, Worshipped even,
Is this nostalgic game.
Sentimental feelings come in
Way too many ways.

The superb music,
The all-new graphics,
From this game on the 64.
A little cartridge
Brings so much joy
A game loved forevermore.

Ladies and gentlemen, guys, gals, and other pals, it makes me proud to present in first place for the 2023 Favorite Retro Game Award…

Super Mario 64!

The first 3D Mario game, Super Mario 64 is remembered fondly by many people. Truly a game for the ages, I am not surprised it came in first place.

And that concludes this year’s award ceremony for Favorite Retro Game! It was a pleasure to be able to work on this, and I hope you enjoyed reading it! I’m Booguette, and I wish you all an amazing day!​

Up next is Smasher with M11 - Favorite 3D Platformer!

 

[Fennekin]

Wow, I really like your presentation, Zange! Those handmade materials really seal the deal for me. It's like this is a real board game you can buy at the store.

Also, I would like to thank Mighty for his amazing writing skills. You told a very cohesive and interesting story, and I really liked how all the interpretations of the users turned out!

Posting on behalf of Smasher.

Hey everyone! Usually when I present an award it's like a stupid little story featuring Smasher Junior or some other freak, but I've never really enjoyed making those or the finished products. It's not very good. Over the past year though I HAVE taken a liking to streaming a little and am hoping to start streaming regularly in the near future. So I wanted that to carry over into my presentation this year. The plan was to record myself playing everything and show off my lack of skills while revealing the order. That's kind of interesting! Maybe!

...Buttttttt 2023 has so far not been a good year for me at all and it's gotten even rougher the past month or so. I have not had nearly as much time to work on this as I wanted and unfortunately wasn't able to do the recording and editing needed so I had to scrap the plan. However even though I could whip out one of my dumb usual presentations in a single evening I REALLY did not want to do that, so instead, this happened! It's just me talking about every nominee a little. I kept messing up so it took a bunch of takes, it ended up being twice as long as intended, and I STILL didn't have a good take in the end because I screwed up a few times here too but I once again ran out of time so...this is what I have!

Honestly just. Don't watch this. It's not worth it. Just skip to the results below. I'm so sorry. One day there will be a good Smasher presentation I swear to God

Up next is TPG with M7 - Favorite In-game Track!

 

[TPG+]

Greetings, ear havers and audio enjoyers! Herr Guy here, conductor of the talent you are preparing to see now, yes. You may have heard our lyrical signature before many years ago, but we've done great things since! From scoring the emotional woes of one lost childhood, to fine-tuning the musical environment of faraway island escapes... our power has only grown.

Though we are but a roaming band of insidious bards and ill-disciplined songweavers, our careers saw new heights last night as we performed at The Pollos Germanos, an overseas theatre of great renown. As my small bands and ensembles covered many familiar musical soundscapes, so did my grand orchestra capture the hearts of many. A recording is provided here, for free!

Now, without further delay, let's present...

We are the New Wikisberg Symphonic Orchestra!

All pieces arranged and rewritten by myself, with help from a guy who only wanted to be credited as 'Mr nuts', who has a great ear for percussion.

Spoiler: Did your votes in the sign up thread matter?

Probably.

Up next is Roserade with the Mario Awards XVII Closing!

 

[Roserade]

With that, our final ceremony of the year nears its close. It truly has been an excellent experience, and I’m thrilled to have led it for you all. This is very far from a one-man show, though, oh no! I want to extend my fullest thank you’s to everyone who assisted through this whole process. Thank you to all presenters and your hard work in making something for everyone to enjoy. Thank you to the entire Awards Committee for sticking through the dumbest debates and weeks of meetings, all with plenty of critical thought and wit. Thank you to my Sub-Director, Perch, for taking on the helm of Fail Awards and continuing to contribute after so many years of existence. And most of all, the biggest thank you I can muster to three people without whom Awards could not have happened this year: Hooded Pitohui, Waluigi Time, and Lakituthequick. I have never known a more dependable and motivated team of people, and I’m so thankful for all of your commitment to this community project and beyond. Working with you all is an incredible joy.

Though it’s about time for us to sweep up the popcorn in this old theater, things never slow down around here! With other Awards events yet to finish and Issue 200 of The ‘Shroom on the horizon, there’s plenty more community projects to engage with. Please, continue to contribute however you can, be it with creative pieces or even simple conversation. Your presence in this community makes it what it is, and we hope to have you all with us for many years to come.

Alright, the lights are starting to dim. While I transition the stage one more time to our final Bonus Stars presentation, I cannot reiterate enough: thank you. Much love to you all.

With special thank you’s yet again to GBA for this incredible art​

Up next is Lakituthequick with Bonus Stars!

Did you know? This year marks the tenth anniversary of the infamous "A7 Incident" (do not research). For many years, reposting the 2013 edition of "Favorite Yoshi Game" became a timeless tradition until being discontinued several years ago. Over the years, various edits were made to update it for the times.

Now, for this special tenth anniversary rerelease, we've gone back to the source to create a lovingly remasterd high-defintiton edition which, while reflecting the past decade of Awards history, is closer to the original artistic vision as well as featuring stunning, never before seen quality allowed by modern audiovisual technology. We hope you enjoy it.

Edofenrir Auditorium

"And we're back! I'm Shinon, always your super high school level Ultra Director!", said Turboo, calling himself Shinon again for some reason.

"And I'm Perch. Always your co-host.", said Perch, somehow not enthused about still being the lowly underling.

"PERCH! You listen to me second-to-last-in-sip! You were supposed to be enthusiastic! You already made me tally!"

"Let's just play the tape."

"Whenhowtally."

"Please."

"Whenhowtally. Whenhowtally. Whenhowtally."

Grainy footage of an island somewhere

"Hello! This is Turboo, always your Ultra Director, here on Yoshi's Island! We're here doing Award A7, favorite Yoshi game, right at the source."

"Turb! Turb! We have a big problem! Angry dinosaurs!"

"Whenhowtally?"

Indeed, it was true. All the Yoshis were running wild.

"What could the problem possibly be? Everyone loves Yoshi! Why would they be angry with us!?"

Perch tried to shrug. Sadly though it's hard to shrug when you're a fish.

"Perch! Fetch me my Super Scope!"

This really happened in 1993.

Incidentally, one person wrote in Yoshi's Safari as best Yoshi game. It came in last place.

And so Turb set out on his journey to discover the favorite Yoshi games hidden all over Yoshi's island, with only the help of his trusty Super Scope and his underling Perch to stave off the rampaging Yoshis angrey for some reason. But first, he needed a snack.

Incidentally, 27 people voted for Yoshi's Cookie. It came in fifth place.

After eating all of Yoshi's cookie, Turb decided to skip Yoshi, which inexplicably people had indeed voted for (36 of them in total. It came in at fourth place.) and just go look for the important Yoshi games that most people had actually liked. Not having a map, he set out in the direction of the trippy felt decorations since it at least looked a little different from the rest of the island.

Obviously the reason there would be felt decorations would be because Yoshi's Story was voted the third favorite Yoshi game with 248 votes (incidentally twice as many as Yoshi, Yoshi's Cookie, Tetris Attack, Yoshi Topsy-Turvy, Yoshi Touch & Go, and even Yoshi's Safari got combine. Did anyone even play any of those game?). Turb retrieved the cartridge and continued on to the next level.

"We are going to continue to the next level!", Turb said as he blasted away a crowd of belligerent Yoshis, who shot first. Luckily, his journey would be made easier; he had found Poochy! With Turb on his back, Poochy galloped gloriously off into the sunset towards the next level.

Soon, Turb had arrived at the next Yoshi game; Yoshi's Island DS! I thought everyone hated that game? How did it get 441 votes? Coincidentally, 1,441 votes were cast, so exactly 1,000 people voted against Yoshi's Island DS. Isn't that interesting? Unfortunately, Turb was prevented from entering the area because Poochy wasn't in that game. So, he just destroyed Yoshi's Island DS, which shot first, with his Super Scope. If he couldn't have it, nobody could!

"Hey! I liked Yoshi's Island DS!", said Perch.

"Too bad! Waluigi Time (user)!", said Waluigi.

Turb disembarked from Poochy and examined the Mushroom House in which Waluigi had taken up residence and on which a dingy sign had been posted saying "Waluigi's Taco Stand". He was obviously perplexed. But he was still hungry, seeing as the cookie hadn't filled him up and, being from Arizona, he did like tacos.

"No I don't", added Turb. "I like pasta and half-price appetizers."

"Too bad! Waluigi Time (user)!"

"So what are you doing here?", Turb asked of Waluigi.

Waluigi rolled his eyes. He got that a lot.

"What does it look like I'm doing. I'm selling tacos. Do you want one or not?"

Turb was very hungry, and there didn't seem to be a pasta stand around.

"What kind of tacos are these?"

"Spicy ones."

"Ok, I'll take two."

Perch was so happy. For once in his career Turb had actually done something nice for him. He watched helplessly as Turb ate the spicy taco and fed the other one to Poochy, and then the group continued onward, Waluigi now in tow as well.

"What?", asked Waluigi. "I'm out of spicy peppers for my tacos."

And so the group trecked onwards until they reached a beautiful river valley, nestled in the jungley mountains of Yoshi's Island, marred only by the massive hordes of rampaging Yoshis destroying things. Shooting their way through the crowd, which shot first, they reached the pepper patch, and it dawned on Turb why the Yoshis had been so angrey.

"They're eating the peppers! Who planted peppers here!?"

And so they went inside the hut next to the pepper patch and found Uniju playing the last game, Yoshi's Island, which won first prize with 625 votes.

"Uniju!" Turb screamed. "Why would you plant peppers on Yoshi's Island! We almost died! Do you know how angrey the Yoshis are!?"

Uniju shrugged.

"I hate Yoshis."

"Uh. Ok. Then why are you on Yoshi's Island."

"To grow peppers."

Turb furrowed his brow. Unfortunately at that moment he was swallowed up by a huge Yoshi, who shot first. Waluigi and Uniju took their hats off in respect for Turb.

"A huge Yoshi ate our always super high school level Ultra Director", said Waluigi.

"Well I suppose that proves they're really not all bad", said Perch, secretly happy his boss was gone.

"He never made pudding", reminisced Uniju.

"Yoshi's Island is frightening in the dark.", Waluigi added. "All the Yoshis are running wild."

"What a crummy weekend this has been", said Turb, who had been spit out by the Yoshi. "Well, this sure ain't no E-ticket. Think I'll tell them where to stick it, because I'm never coming back this way again!"

Edofenrir Auditorium

"So how did you survive, always super high school level Ultra Director Shinon?", asked Waluigi, who had donned a pink apron saying "kiss the the cook" and was pushing a taco cart.

"Yoshis hate peppers. I guess the spicy taco saved me."

Most of all, the audience was left wondering why Turb and Perch had gotten Snack to cobble together a presentation at the last minute like this. They must've known he would cobble it together in an hour or two with little to no inspiration. What were they thinking.

"ONE DOESN'T QUESTION ONE'S ALWAYS SUPER HIGH SCHOOL LEVEL ULTRA DIRECTOR!", shouted Turb, making the audience too frightened to continue that train of thought.

Wow! This presentation is dog shit!!

 

[Lakituthequick]

	Hot diggity! What an absolutely epic Mario Awards ceremony we just had! The Super Mario Wiki community continues to shine brightly, and it's a testament to the creativity and passion of everyone involved!

	But before we wrap things up, it's time for one last round of Bonus Stars that will leave you captivated!

	Not two, not one, not four, but three Bonus Stars this time!

	Huhu! Indeed! Let's give it up for the first one!

	Huzzah! It is the Highest Vote Count Star! Exquisite!

	This Star is a tribute to the nominee that received the most votes across all awards, both new and existing! Get ready for this staggering number!

	Bowser (Jack Black)! Menacing!

	With an impressive 758 votes in M4. Favourite Mario Movie (2023) Portrayal, Jack Black truly made a splash with fans! His performance as Bowser was an absolute showstopper!

	He got over half of the total votes! I'm still hearing Peaches in my dreams every night.

	You should see a doctor!

---

	But the excitement doesn't end there! Let's see what the next Bonus Star is gonna be!

	Next up is the Most Written In Star! Wondrous!

	This Star's all about those "other" box write-ins that took the polls by storm!

	But we're skipping over invalid, albeit funny, write-ins, even though those would shake up the results a bit.

	Indeed! Now, don't leave us waiting! This Bonus Star goes to…

	Bouldergeist! Transcendent!

	With a beefy 13 votes in M13. Favourite Boss Battle, Bouldergeist received the most votes that weren't official nominees! Just goes to show the impact this spectral boulder had on people's memories!

	Ghosts getting 13 votes can never be a good sign.

	Superstitions, Panache!

---

	Now, I wonder what our thrilling last Bonus Star will be tonight!

	Zoinks! It's the Most Competitive Runner-up Star!

	This Star is all about celebrating the nominee that came oh-so-close to winning! Get ready for some intense competition! The winner, or should I say runner-up, is…

	Super Mario Maker 2! Astounding!

	Securing second place in M10. Favourite 2D Platformer, Super Mario Maker 2 was just 0.54% away from clinching the victory! It's proof that every decimal point counts!

	My oh my, what a nail-biter!

	I certainly lost all of mine today! I'm so excited!

---

	But! Fiddlesticks! That wraps up our Bonus Stars for this grand celebration of all things Mario and the Super Mario Wiki community! We want to extend a heartfelt thank you to our incredible audience for joining us on this spectacular journey!

	Thank you! Thank you! Thank you!

	Time to clean up! Good night, everyone!
