    Can anyone tell me where this render (warning: it's a render of Mario, don't hold your breath) is from beyond a page (i.e. has this been used in other promotional material?) in the Super Mario Bros. Encyclopedia?

    Considering how the Super Mario Bros. Encyclopedia translators unashamedly plagiarized our own Super Mario Wiki, you're not wrong.

    Hey, that's the stretching Mario artwork I've been looking for! I don't know if it's the original source, but it's used as Mario's artwork on the character select screen for the Nintendo 3DS version of Mario & Sonic at the Rio 2016 Olympic Games.

    My life might be a little more complete if there's some 4koma manga that shows the obstacles in Chocolate Fortress as literal pencils.

    Feast your eyes upon my art-senal! Twelve pencils, ready to make your bodies my canvas!

    I thought they were pencils too! Just as how James Bond can wield the pencil gun in 007 Goldeneye.

    Fuck it, Michel Ancel's probably an asshole just like the rest of the toxic stew that is Ubisoft. Keep Rayman out of Smash. The less Ubisoft property I have to see from then on, the better.

    Oh hey, remember last week when Rayman/Beyond Good and Evil creator Michel Ancel announced he was leaving the game industry? Looks like he may have jumped ship as French outlet Liberation was about to do an expose on his abusive management.

    He can have his little fun at a sanctuary while leaving behind people he possibly hurt.


    Some translated quotes
    "Ganesha City, which [he] asked us to do with a completely stupid level of detail, we only just finished it three years later, and we've had to redo it four or five times. Knowing that we have to do several planets, you can imagine the absurdity of this kind of reasoning."

    "Michel needs the ideas to be his. He often prefers to improvise something of his own rather than listen to the team and look at the structured work we've done at his request."

    "He is able to explain to you that you are a genius, that your idea is great, and then he can take you apart in meetings by saying that you are a piece of shit, that your work is worthless, and not talk to you for a month."

    ok so basically ubisoft sucks ass and arent doing anything about all the long ass amount of time of abuse and mismanagement and harassment of their employees! like they Said they did something about a few bad peeps but its barely a change i believe, and the rest still get away scot free! also one of their recent games or trailers or whatever just kinda put blm protesters in a bad light which was really terrible too!!! they just kinda, said theyd remove hte fist. i dont think they even apologized for the blatant racism specifically. what hte hell
    by the way while were at it. right now ancel is denying the claims saying theyre fake but we dont know yet for sure whats really going on still..

    Michel Ancel's calling the allegations, "fake news". That doesn't add to his credibility imo but we'll see how the investigations turn out. I don't have high expectations for Ancel though.

    It's times like that where I wonder how long it will take before a collaborative work done by many people would be shed of the stigma of the talent behind them. In this case, there's Rayman, which I acknowledge that is not done by one person but the one behind it appears to be the forefront of it. It seems that the people behind the talent has a very strong foundation in spirit, so even if the work is not the most favoured by everybody it would not be badly affected compared to a great work by an infamous person.

    Thank you for reading.
    If you think platformer Mario just dies to a Koopa touching him, I will tell you that the moment he gets a Mushroom, he can survive even a giant impaling metal thing, thousands of times bigger than him, going right through him.

    oh sheet
    Pirated copies of Super Mario 3D All Stars are crashing on Switch consoles but some media have the gall to refer to modded consoles as "sullied", like they're contaminated. First, modded Switches are not "sullied" lol, you can always reboot to regular firmware. Second, Nintendo doesn't need your defense, tinkered consoles aren't inherently a bad thing and have features such as save backups, customized games, and custom themes, not just for piracy. Third, a superior emulation for Super Mario 64 in the Switch exists, and Super Mario 64 is the one causing crashing issues. You can be against modded consoles, but be paid to know what the hell you're talking about.

    I'm looking at particularly you, screenrant.

    I would mod my Switch to get different themes, but I don't want to fuck anything up cause I'm not the only one who uses it.

    Eh it's not the most reliable thing to do. You pretty much need a pre summer 2018 Switch or not update the thing, first is dependent on circumstance, second is just a bit too much of a sacrifice since you lose out on game updates, new games, and stuff.

    Mario's lame anniversary got overshadowed by a new, out-of-nowhere Legend of Zelda musou and the Hyrule Warriors Definitive Edition we picked up recently; how the hell did that happen.
    Today I learned there's a Chinatown in my city. Oh yeeess.

    I must've had a crayon in my brain if I thought only NY had a Chinatown. God I really need a habit of thinking things twice.

    Los Angeles has a Chinatown too! Well, in SoCal, there's a lot of heavily Asian areas, not just Chinese, but you'll find Little Tokyo and Koreatown in LA as well as in other areas.
    LeftyGreenMario
    LeftyGreenMario
    While a good tourist destination, I read that the best Chinese food aren't in China Town, as restaurants there are designed to attract tourists first, over accommodating to the palette of Chinese immigrants. That means the food may have been catered to be more "accessible" and flavor is sacrificed. However I guess advice is different if your region doesn't have a strong Chinese community like in L.A..
    Will there ever be the year of Brawl Mario? Will random tripping be sold separately?
    LeftyGreenMario
    LeftyGreenMario
    The year of Brawl Mario is still going on in spirit as long as Mario retains the scowly face and Brawl Mario's voice effects continue being used for every Smash Bros. game to eternity.

    Random tripping is still there, just in the form of Smash Ultimate online's connections problems. They trip all the time.
    If you thought the occasional drama in MarioWiki can be super tiring wait until you hear the kind of drama I had to attend to.

    Mario Wiki: Behind the Scenes on paper doesn't sound so bad. Unless it's about some guy overly fanatized with a character from some article, idk what can happen between two or more people making an article that's drama.

    Sometimes I see feuds breakout on certain Wikias, but usually the Mario Wiki seems to be pretty chill.

    Boy if you edit the wiki then I hope you have an idea what 146,294 bytes worth of drama is. (more bytes than Super Mario Odyssey's 139,598 bytes)

    🍃 The will of the mob, in the form of LGM, is to get rid of someone and anyone who supports him. 🍃
    It's super late for this and I hate to bother you, but I'd like to know in maybe more detail why was it a bad thing that the names I gave to my Chinese boys were "cultural appropiation-y". They seemed harmlessly stereotypical to me, a la Punch Out idk.
    LeftyGreenMario
    LeftyGreenMario
    If you try Punch Out, you have to go over the top and make sure you lampoon those stereotypes rather than adhere to them. It's pretty difficult to pull it off, might not even be worth the trouble.
    Mount Wario
    Mount Wario
    Ok so you meant it's bad if I adhere too much?

    Suppose I created a guy who came from America who is idk a cowboy who loves bbq and has a Roosevelt like face. I mean that's so absurd no one would adhere to that and just laugh? My characters here are a lot less stereotypical and only have designs based on how Han China actually looked like, sort of. Aside from names with hidden funny Chinese meanings (which alright came from Google Translate loooool but still), There barely seems to be anything super forcedly stereotypical.
    How does it feel to be the only Mario again

    Hot take: Sakurai and his team should finish Smash Ultimate soon and take a break and then when they're ready, they should make another Kid Icarus game.

    I'm just saying, all these character requests are pretty tiring. :P A lot of characters have their fans going "well it's not over until my favorite character is in" and that's probably going to go on forever. Maybe just kill the thing now and let it be. Let's move on to something smaller and more needy.

    Besides, Smash announcements have been airing like 24/7 for the past few years it feels; they've been replacing all big announcements from other games. What if you don't like Smash? Kinda tough luck.

    I mean ever since Min-Min's release it's been completely silent save for that one shadow drop update with Small Battlefield. And I don't think Smash DLC has "replaced" other announcements, it's developed by an entirely different studio that's almost exclusively dedicated to Smash.

    Yes, Smash Ultimate is a truly complete game as it is, even despite the lack of Bandana Dee that makes my heart cry. But I don't see anything wrong with adding more content to a game that's already so great.

    I'd like to see get Rayman in, but it's finished when Sakurai/Nintendo say it's finished, regardless of the characters that are in. There's still a lot of hope for the characters mentioned here... except Waluigi, unfortunately. As much as I want him in, it's still quite a stretch.
    How should I get over my anxiety over the idea of joining even the most light-hearted tournaments?

    I think it's best just to talk to your friends before a match begins and remember what you do well in other areas, if all else fails, simply explain that this stuff stresses you out and no one will hold it against you if you don't compete

    What I do is even though I do care a lot about winning first place in Mario kart. Everyone loses. So the few times I get last place or bottom tier places I just tell my self to get up and try again. Losing actually motivates me. Don't think of losing as bad. Think of it as a learning tool. :)
    LeftyGreenMario
    LeftyGreenMario
    Well I know losing is a learning experience and everyone expects to lose. I can get lost in enjoyment of the competition. But I have to deal with a mindset that gives me anxiety any time I compete and I end up getting burnt out more easily and end up just not joining those games.
    Ok I'm actually back with my sister for the time being

    Let's say the rent in Santa Clara was ungodly and some pay cuts plus other personal circumstances brought me back.

    I haven't broke up, but I think I'm here for the rest of the year!
    August 16 is going to be quite the milestone for me and my sister as Marioboards members soon.

    We actually edited the Wiki back in Fall 2009 but we haven't had a proper decade milestone set yet iirc. I'm also not really active in the Wiki these days either, don't think it counts. :(
    Do not buy Ubisoft games

    If you think competitive Smash is bad well the same crap is happening but unlike Smash, Ubisoft's doing nothing and covering the tracks.
