Man, this was a fun power up.
I guess Nintendy considered it too unwieldy, but it'd still be neat if it came back. It really spiced up the power up roster. Funny how this just popped into my head a few minutes ago for no real reason.
I missed the convo, but I prefer to think the Koopa Troop is composed of A: Evil little shits that just wanna see the world burn, B: People unwillingly drafted and/or just doing as Bowser says so they don't face his ire, and the odd few nice guys who are just in it for the free housing/being...
What I heard was that Luigi only goes in front during Bros. Actions that require him to be in the front. Is that more or less what you're talking about?
Glad to see I'm not the only one who was irked by this. Like, it's a minor detail overall, but it was a nice touch and I don't really get why no other game did that (including Superstar Saga's own remake, from what I've heard)
LMAO, I spent a good few months trying to unlock Waluigi. Fun times.
Anways, to respond more directly to the thread, Waluigi? He is great. Bless that glorious, cheating purple son of a bitch.
I just noticed that when you collect a Power Star as Wario in Super Mario 64 DS, the noise he makes sounds like he's about to vomit. Almost as if being the hero is making him physically sick, XD
Not my headcanon, but I found it pretty interesting, especially since it's a headcanon on one of the more niche Mario-based things to headcanon (the time mechanic of the 2D platformers). I slightly edited it for clarity though. Credit goes to some random TV-Troper (It didn't give me the name)...
I know I'm a few days late, but I forgot to hit "submit."
Anyways, I personally think the Bros still visit Brooklyn. In fact, I'd say they'd still consider themselves "Brooklynites first, Mushroomers second."
Played some good Punch-Out yesterday, thought about how Mario was a referee that one time, thought about some fanfic I was reading recently, and it reminded me to share my newest headcanon, which I wish I thought of fully on my own. Punch-Out and Super Mario Bros exist in the same universe.
Not...
Now this is the shit I like to see. Solid update all around. I also didn't even know I wanted them to essentially start making an official Super Mario Crossover... but now that the door's been opened, sure, why not (but only secondary to adding as much diversity in the enemies/items/blocks as...
In addition to most Nintendo Consoles, Switch included, Mario and Luigi also own a Playstation 4, Xbox One X, and most of their past consoles, and in addition to that, a pretty large Steam library. Power of them gold coins.
I also like the Yoshi's Island Backstory. I personally think both backstories are correct (at least, certian parts of them, I use a merging of both.)
Anyways, I'm pretty late, but here's a Halloween headcanon: Luigi went out as Mr. L. He also sometimes wears his Mr. L costume at home when he...
Well, the cartoons in general have a fair amount of meme potential. They're a classic example of "So Bad, It's Good." I can't really call a series that makes me laugh so much "bad", even if it's not for the right reasons, XD. That being said, that Kootie Pie episode wasn't one of those. I...
Not sure if this has been said before, but I feel like Bowser Jr and most of the Koopalings are mostly not 100% evil and mostly antagonize Mario because A: Bowser makes them do so, and B: Entertainment value (jn the case of Roy), and would likely be relatively good people without Bowser's...
Man I keep on seeing cool threads that I want to type long posts in, then I realize I can't type stuff in them because they're several years dead and I don't wanna be known as "that necroposter guy".
Some wonder why the fuck Mario would give up his castle (you know, the bitchin one that he had in Super Mario Land 2). I did too.
I had a "eureka!" moment, though, which became one of my favorite Mario fan theories ever. And it also explains why Wario got a castle all of a sudden.
Here's the...
I picture Bowser being the type to have 2-3 new girls in bed every week, so even if i don't subscribe to that theory, I DO see where people are coming from with multiple mothers, XD (even if obviously Nintendo's not going to straight up say that in an E for everyone game). Honestly, I bet most...
Eh, to play devil's advocate, most other official material is neutral or suggests both IIRC. I honestly feel like there's no harm in picking and choosing what you like most. In fact, I even feel like that aspect of the series is intentional to an extent. It's not like the plot of Mario is all...
Blue Bowser is unlike his brother and his family in that he decided that being evil wasn't really for him after helping Bowser out in the first game. He and Bowser made peace and he took his leave to pursue other interests (academics, writing, stuff like that). He and Bowser still talk with each...
Waluigi is my number 1 Dream Pick. Maybe some day, The Waa-Overlord will get his justice.
Also special mention goes to Geno. My friend really likes him and hopes he comes through, and his admiration for SMRPG rubbed off on me and I genuinely hope the star warrior pulls through now.
I was talking about the sprites Luigi used in the All-Stars Version of SMW.
He was always a goof, but he's still a strong AF motherfucker who rams through people and brick like there's nothing to it, piledrives dinosaurs, and has some killer rides. I don't see why he can't be considered badass...
Tru, Bowser's SS sprite was pretty bad.
The real unpopular opinion there was the part about me being cool with more complex storylines. And I do agree on more playables, but I was also referring to NPCs (like in boss fights and everything).
Agreed on that front. Would have liked 3D land's...
My ages for most of the magor Mario cast. Don't think many people will care, but I'm bored
Also, while I'm talking about adoption, here's a headcanon I've had for a long time. After the events of Super Mario World, Mario and Luigi took in Yoshi as a pet/adopted son, and he's stayed in their...
The Koopalings are still Bowser's children. The thing is, they're adopted. Bowser Jr is Bowser's only BIOLOGICAL child. Bowser tries to keep this under wraps because he still wants people to think of him as an evildoer
Unpopular shit incoming
-Super Paper Mario is my favorite Mario RPG game. Then again, I like every Paper Mario game (except Sticker Star. Yes, I like Color Splash). I also loved Partners in Time (and was butthurt it didn't get the remake treatment at first. Seeing the unfortunate news involving...
Wait, really? Hell yeah! This also means that it's not impossible for them to make the other multi-player characters player in single mode later down the line (assuming they truly are locked to multiplayer for the time being)
Locking online behind a paywall because you get games for it is a *bleep* practice. What if you aren't interested in any of those games and just want the online? Would it be too much to ask to say, give consumers an option to get the online free like previous console generations, just without...
I expected NSO to be forced for level creators, but doing it for people trying to download levels too? That's just fucked up.
(And judging from how they phrased it, Luigi, Toad and Toadette might only be usable in single player. Please tell me I'm just paranoid.)
