    Would you like Odyssey to be referenced more?

    In the future, I think it's likely that a select few things will be referenced, similar to previous games. I'd personally quite like to see Tostarenans return, and I think some of the new enemies also have a decent chance at coming back, such as Tropical Wigglers and Pokios. I think elements of...

    Wiki Articles appearing in News Feeds?

    So, this is interesting, apparently the Google Chrome news feed thinks that Wiki articles are new articles, as the new Gooigi one came up in my news feed today: Has anyone else had this? It seems like it's related to the fact that it's a new article, I just found it quite strange that it showed...

    Could the next Mario Kart game go in Super Smash Bros. Ultimate's direction?

    From the ones I've played, I agree with you there. I quite liked some of the battle courses too. As for the original question, I don't think it's likely that they'd do an every character, item, course etc. thing there. For characters, you've got Donkey Kong Jr., who seems to have disappeared...

    Do you support same selectable characters?

    I'm not hugely keen on identical characters being able to be selected by two different people, but I'm fine with palette swaps being able to be selected at the same time, as long as they don't take up extra character slots *ahem*MetalMarioGoldMarioPinkGoldPeach*ahem*. Mario Kart 8 is the only...

    Anyone happen to own a standalone physical copy of New Super Luigi U?

    I don't know if it's any different over in the USA, but here in the UK the places that have got them seem to be selling them dirt cheap. The last one I saw was Sochi 2014 brand new for £14.99.

    Anyone happen to own a standalone physical copy of New Super Luigi U?

    I don't own it personally, but I've seen it on sale fairly cheap in various second-hand video game stores. I don't think it's particularly rare.

    After Rosalina, are there any newer major Mario characters?

    I don't think Cappy's going to hang around, I think he'll probably just follow F.L.U.D.D. and Perry, only appear majorly in one game and get a few references later on. He seems about the same kind of thing. I don't think there are any more characters that are quite as main as Rosalina that...

    Things you like in Mario stuff you don't like and vice versa

    The 3DS version of Mario & Sonic at the London 2012 Olympic Games is by far my favourite game in the Mario & Sonic series, and up there as one of my favourite games of all time, but I really hate the fact that the certain characters are locked to certain events. It's still handled better than...

    OK, so here's something interesting I found out today- I saw a Mario top in Primark today (I can't find a picture of it- excellent), and usually, the tops there use the 2D promotional art images, but interestingly, the one I saw today used a touched up and recoloured version of this artwork...

    Supper Mario Broth

    If you remove the mushroom head and give her regular hair, you essentially get Aurora. I had heard that original Aurora-resembling design existed, but wow, I was not expecting it to look that similar.

    Mario pictures

    I found this one when looking through the Bowser gallery today, and I'm surprised I hadn't noticed it before. Nicely sums up what happens when I play crazy golf most of the time. I'm not sure who that random foot(?) in the top of the picture belongs to though, it seems out of place.

    Would you like more/better world-building in (Super) Mario games?

    I think I'd personally like a few more references to earlier games scattered throughout, but I wouldn't want it to take over the whole game. I think it mainly needs to happen with locations as opposed to characters, which fairly regularly reappear for something or the other. It'd be nice to...

    Super Mario Party

    I really want a game now that turns the tables and Toad can't speak, and Mario has to do it for him. That'd actually be really funny now. Why, of all the characters in the game, is Mario not able to speak? Let me guess, even Goomba has some dialogue. Surely if anyone was silent, it should be...

    New Super Mario Bros. U Deluxe - Switch Port Rumors

    I really hope this rumour turns out to be false, as I'm starting to get sick of all these Wii U ports. I understand that porting these games for the people who didn't have a Wii U is a good idea, and at the start of a new console, I think it's a good way to start building a library of games to...

    Mario Kart 9 - What It Should Be Like

    Coconut Mall is tied for my favourite track in the series with Electrodrome, but I doubt it'll be coming back again any time soon since it reappeared in Mario Kart 7, the same for Mushroom Gorge. I reckon Toad's Factory is probably the most likely course from Mario Kart Wii that hasn't...

    Could Birdo work well in a Yoshi game?

    Actually, Birdos can flutter jump: In Mario & Sonic at the Rio 2016 Olympic Games, there's a Birdo by the Legends Showdown sand sculpture, and one of her idle animations is a flutter jump.

    Could Birdo work well in a Yoshi game?

    I think she could, though it'd probably have to be in a non-Yoshi's Island one because I don't think she'd work particularly well with the babies, as she has spikes on her back and lacks a shell. That said, I think she'd be fine in something like Yoshi's Woolly World. I think she'd probably have...

    Minor characters with wasted potential?

    Perry immediately springs to mind. Although there hasn't been a game similar to Super Princess Peach since, which explains why he hasn't returned in a major way, he's the sort of character you'd expect to make cameos or something. He could be used by Princess Peach as part of some of her special...

    Should There be a Super Mario Maker Sequel?

    I think so. I think that they should add some more enemies, obstacles and slopes, at least, but I also think it would be nice if they added a few more graphical styles (Super Mario Bros. 2 and Super Mario Land come to mind) and with those styles bring elements from those games. And if you...

    I had absolutely no idea that the characters in Mario Kart 64 were 2D sprites until I realised that they weren't polygonal enough to be 3D models. I also didn't know that there are two trains in Kalimari Desert, I always thought it was just the one.
