I've never really known what to post here myself, but I couldn't answer for why no one else has posted here before. Again, it's something that hasn't really come up.
If you're asking it I have an ask thread, then no, I don't at the moment, but if there was something you wanted to ask me I can probably make one in a bit, it's never really come up before. Also, first profile post! 🥳
In New Super Mario Bros. U, if you tap on a Bouncy Cloud in Boost Mode, it will blush. Also, the Lakitu's clouds in the game open their mouths in time with the music.
My first one overall was Dr. Mario for the Game Boy. For each individual series:
2D Mario- New Super Mario Bros. Wii
3D Mario- Super Mario Galaxy
Mario Kart- Mario Kart Wii
Mario Party- Mario Party DS
Mario & Sonic- Mario & Sonic at the Olympic Games (Nintendo DS)
Donkey Kong- Donkey Kong...
So I was fiddling around on 2012 3DS today, and I was surprised to find out that the online rankings area actually still up, and functional, especially as 2012 Wii's online went down years ago. Another thing that surprised me is the number of ranked players, I only put in two events as it takes...
OK, thank you very much for the input! For anyone who isn't aware, I've now put together a list of all of the locations (User:BBQ Turtle/Olympic Locations), except for 2020 due to lack of access and online resources and a couple of names that need checking in 2016 3DS due to time constraints. I...
OK, I think I've failed to come up with a solution for this for long enough now, so I want to ask for some help. I'm currently trying to work out if and how we should cover locations in the Mario & Sonic series, and I really can't get anywhere with it. If I'm counting right, there are five...
...I really should have updated this sooner. Anyway, there's a fair bit of good news now, as all of the Story Mode articles are done, as well as the three additional object-related articles and the rewrite of Phantasmal Fog. The next thing I'll be moving onto is probably some of the other...
I'm in agreement on Piranha Creeper Creek After Dark for the Green Stars (Still haven't got the second one), and I'd also add Blast Block Sky Plaza, we still haven't completed it ourselves, a friend of mine came over and completed it, so we don't have all the Green Stars on that one yet.
Quite a lot of things, actually- my main ones would be Lego Minifigures, Disney Princess figures, snow globes, coins, glow in the dark stuff, Mario merchandise and those liquid-filled paperweight things with animals and stuff floating around inside them. And while not my personal collection, I...
I really hope they don't do Brickheadz things... but I think a Yoshi Minifigure would be a pretty easy one, I reckon a moulded head, tail piece that goes over the legs like the one that's been done for Donald Duck and potentially a shell piece to go over the neck? Maybe combining the last two...
I'm really excited for this, as long as they do a good job of it. Apparently there are going to be thirteen sets, though one of them is listed as a blind bag, so come on Mario Lego Minifigures series!
If you've put the ugly in brackets because you don't like Funko Pops, you may be pleased to...
He's not one of my absolute favourite characters, but I do really like him for comedy value. We do have a weird thing that we've started though where we always use Waluigi for the first playthrough of Mario Party story modes though.
Just another couple, I've been a bit busy to get up to much at the moment.
So, the couple of little references I threw in here are obviously the various guns they're holding (Coconut Shooter, Peanut Popgun and Gumball Popgun), the skull on Donkey Kong's hat is based on Bink from Mario & Luigi...
A proper new Mario Kart (i.e. not a simplified micro-transaction filled mobile game or port). Something that combines some of the best parts of each of the other games and sorts out some of the issues, and has a decent roster with minimal clones.
It depends if you count controllable but not necessarily selectable teammates, because if you do they did it in 2016 3DS. Daisy had a team of five differently-coloured Birdos as her football teammates that can be controlled, and Birdo the character was playable in Archery.
I definitely agree that the soundtracks are great. Most of the remixes are good, though some of the 2014 ones are questionable, but I also like a lot of the main tracks too. I'd say that the main themes (The ones that go alongside the openings) are all really nice.
I think I'm going to stop saying that I'll update this regularly, as it never seems to work out, so I'll update it when I update it. :P Anyway, I've been busy doing some non-art stuff since then, so there's only two pieces that I really want to post at the moment:
I've had the idea for this one...
Well, much like everyone else said, the community here is really friendly, I'm not in a lot of other online places like this but I've never seen one that's quite as nice as here anywhere else. It's also nice to have somewhere to discuss Mario stuff without having to backtrack and explain every...
OK, I'm probably a bit late to the party on this one, but I know that there's been some contradictions over which Koopaling is the leader. Anyway, Jakks Pacific have been doing several lines of Mario toys recently, and they're pretty good, and the most recent ones have short paragraphs on the...
In Speed Skating 500m in 2010 Wii, each character type requires a different number of perfectly timed swings in a row to perform a dash. Also Waluigi has a funny losing animation in this event where he falls over, but I can't find a video of it at the moment.
I don't have any suggestions for new ones, but based on how much (or rather, not so much) I've personally seen them get used, I think we could safely get rid of the Boo, Blooper, Buzzy Beetle and Bob-omb in favour of new ones- I can't recall seeing them used much at all. And based on more of my...
My favourite sport to play is definitely field archery (There's something really fun about shooting the 3D animal targets), though to watch I quite like gymnastics and diving when they're on.
I forgot to take a photo, but I did make a giant batch of gingerbread on Wednesday and decorated them on Thursday- they were Christmas tree shaped and decorated to look like they had snow and decorations on them. The recipe made way more than we expected and we ended up with 42, but they're all...
We were in a toy shop today and looking at the Mario stuff, and they had some Green Shell plushes that made noises when you hit them. Most of the time, it makes the standard noise for hitting a shell, but every so often it makes the noise for a 1-Up. Anyway, me and my brother were going through...
Can I sign up please? I'd prefer artwork (That's likely what I'll be giving as a gift anyway) as I don't have a Steam account or anything like that. My main interests are, surprisingly enough, Mario, but more specifically I like the main female characters, and I also like classic Disney stuff too.
OK, this is a new post as there's a fair bit of news coming at once here. So, I've now finished all of the event articles for both 2010 DS and 2008 Wii- that means all of the handheld event articles are now complete, all of the dodgy old summer event articles are converted to disambiguation...
I can't pinpoint exact years to a lot of this, but I think this is roughly in order. The amount of Mario stuff going on for me at the start of the decade was fairly limited, but I did make some good friends through a shared interest of it, and particularly boosted my interest in Mario Kart and...
Quite a lot, actually- I've picked up a lot of random trivia that comes in useful for quizzes and other general knowledge stuff. For example, OPEC is mentioned in the comic for White Knuckle Scorin', I remembered it had something to do with oil, and it came in useful when it came up as a...
I feel like I need a flashing sign or something to remind me this thread exists... :P
Anyway, as I forgot about it again, here's another large post of art that I haven't posted since last time:
(Somewhat) Interesting thing I've noticed about this image, it's a pre-release image from 2010 Wii but the icon used for Peach on the top left appears to be from 2008 Wii, as she's wearing her vest top from the summer Olympics- her arms are obviously bare rather than the magenta for her winter top.
By general discussion, they mean this thread here, it's the best place for bringing up smaller matters that don't need a lengthy discussion or aren't part of a larger project, and means that this board doesn't get flooded with smaller threads but still gets the attention it needs. But you don't...
