    What Super Mario game(s) do you get the most nostalgic for?

    I was going to ask how one would get nostalgic for Mario & Luigi: Paper Jam or for Mario Party 9. Then I looked it up, and Paper Jam was released six years ago. And Mario Party 9 was released when I graduated high school! That sure dates me, doesn't it. Sheesh. Anyway, I'm pretty nostalgic...

    Happy Holidays, everyone! I hope you're having a wonderful December. Stay safe and warm and enjoy time with family. If you are one of those who can't, just remember that you're not alone and family doesn't have to just be those you're related to by blood.

    Why never was a Super Mario Bros timeline?

    This was already pointed out to you, but to make it more explicit: the protagonist's name in Legend of Zelda is Link, not Zelda. Zelda is the princess of Hyrule who goes by she/her pronouns. Haha. Anyway, on-subject, I do believe that it's less that Miyamoto's busy and more that Mario himself...

    As someone who is enby/genderfluid, I appreciate this. Yes, sometimes there are pronoun and gender jokes made within the trans community, but the thing is, at a glance I can't tell if anyone on the forums is actually trans, and it's very different having a trans person joke about pronouns vs. a...

    Why Undertale is connected much deeper to Mario than you think.

    When answering the question, I was more so thinking that some similarities are not a coincidence because Toby does have some background in playing Mario RPGs. I believe the battle system in Undertale in particular draws inspiration from Mario & Luigi RPGs as well as Touhou; yes, a lot of the...

    Feel old yet?

    I bet there's people alive who don't know what VHS tapes are. I'd say the same thing of vinyl records, but their vintage feeling has them constantly referenced even in modern media. Meanwhile, I rarely see VHS tapes referenced outside of the distinctive sound that they used to make. I don't...

    What game did you last play?!?!?!?

    The last game I played (besides Toontown) was Deltarune! Very fun game so far and I'm looking forward to the future updates of it (and don't mind waiting a few more years to get them).

    What decade did you grow up in?

    I was born in 1994, so I voted for 1990s, but I admit that the 2000s are where a majority of my memories come from. I do have memories from the 90s and I even remember being able to identify with people who went "like this if you're a 90s kid", so I suppose I am still mostly 90s kid. I wouldn't...

    In your opinion who is the cutest character in the Mario series?

    For main characters that are part of the main franchise: 1 - Yoshi for the aesthetic cuteness. I mean, he's a squishy, cartoon dinosaur. It's why I was so attached to him back in the day. 2 - Luigi for general personality cuteness. For characters regardless of spinoff and relevance, there's no...

    Which Mario game you have never played?

    As with others before me, it'd be easier to list games that I have played since there are so many that I haven't. When I was young, my access to game systems was very limited, and that guaranteed I barely played anything from the N64 era and plenty from the GameCube era. Most of the games that I...

    Unpopular opinions about the Mario series

    It's less that I don't like it and more that I think it's very dated. Super Mario Odyssey is a better game, and yet it's overshadowed by Super Mario 64 in Best of lists. Ultimately, everyone is allowed their preferences, but I don't agree with what appears to me the general public opinion that...

    whats the best ''mario & luigi...'' game?

    While Bowser's Inside Story is the fan favorite and most likely the one you'll enjoy the most, I recommend starting with Superstar Saga if you don't plan on playing the 3DS remake, because those QoL improvements that were mentioned already? Yeah, that also applies to future titles after...

    Hmm, I see. I already have an ask thread which is another reason why I'm asking; would I have to combine that with an in character thread, or would I be able to make a separate one for in character? It feels a little awkward to have my ask thread specifically about me also be for IC purposes.

    Hiya! I appreciate hearing that you wanted to talk to me! I'm here now, probably will be for a while yet before potentially disappearing again. Kit/kits works the same as it/its, just with a k! So "kits feelings on this are mixed", "I saw kit posting on that forum", "kit better watch kitself", etc.!

    Has anyone ever done "In Character" Ask threads? I kind of want to try my hand at it, but I'm admittedly a little timid about it.

    What a surprise that TERFs are misogynistic! Who could've seen THAT coming? Who could've predicted that cis women are now being kicked out of bathrooms because TERFs are so desperate to clock every trans woman they can? I have no idea how that could EEEVERRR affect cis women with a higher amount...

    Unpopular opinions about the Mario series

    It's funny thinking about how I used to say that it was an unpopular opinion that the Game Theorists didn't know what they were talking about. Fandom perceptions can really change in a couple years! Here's a real unpopular opinion: I think Super Mario 64 has not aged well, and although I...

    Preferred Names & Pronouns

    Hiya! While the primary name I go by is Lynx, I'm fine with Luigi, Cat Luigi, Cat, etc. as a nickname. I'm genderfluid/nonbinary! Kit/kits are my pronouns of preference, but if you don't remember those, that's okay; he/him works just as well. Some of you may be aware I used to go by she/her...

    Is Mario (character) more remembered for being reputable or being disreputable?

    Yep! That's me! I've since come out as nonbinary, haha. This is my new main, though! I understand and I feel it. It's why I heavily enjoyed the Mario & Luigi RPGs back in the day, as you would know! Oh, I think it was just meant to be a lighthearted statement on Luigi's part! So if anyone...

    Game Sequels That Disappointed You?

    I think Super Mario Galaxy 2 counts in that. Though it's actually not because it's "more of the same"; in reality, I think it's because Super Mario Galaxy 2 is missing something intrinsic that the first game had. This is a good video that talks about what I'm referring to.

    Sonic Frontiers

    The Ian Flynn thing makes me a little more optimistic. I'm really just not a fan of Ken Pontac's work, so I'm glad we'll be getting a different writer this time. As long as the story attempts to be sincere instead of hollow or, even worse, excessively cynical and meta, then I'll be willing to...

    Best Collectible?

    Luigi's Purple Coins, primarily because the catharsis I felt when completing the level offset all the tears that I shed when I tried what I thought was a clever route in the level only to watch Mario disintegrate along with my hopes and dreams.

    post any random Mario thought on your mind

    Yeah, the thing is that situational humor works better with Luigi's clumsiness. That is to say, it's funnier when he's just... clumsy, and the natural consequences that come from that. I don't find it very funny when characters get on him for something that he did by accident. The only time that...

    If Mario could have a crossover with any series you want..

    Honestly, I'd love to see more RPG crossovers with Mario. Although Mario + Rabbids is not RPG it's still a tactics game, so a similar kind of thinking. Why not go full on Final Fantasy x Mario with the history of partnerships they've had with Square Enix, the fact that they already have a...

    I still am not a fan of Starlow and I question why Alpha Dream apparently thought she was loved enough to bring back. Twice.

    Is Mario (character) more remembered for being reputable or being disreputable?

    I've been here before, actually! A while back. I just completely forgot my username. (Plus it's been like, actual, literal years.) I appreciate the welcomes, though! I really like the artist who drew this pfp. It's about switched for me. Luigi is my favorite while Mario is my second favorite...

    Is Mario (character) more remembered for being reputable or being disreputable?

    I do think for those more deeply into the Mario franchise, the sentiment that Mario needs to be turned into a megalomaniac or otherwise made out to be antiheroic to be interesting is uncommon. I think it occurs most often within casual circles. As someone else pointed out, it's especially...
