Would it be possible to also edit MarioWiki:Proposals/Archive Header to make note of this?

I didn't say that a character's name shouldn't matter at all, but it shouldn't be the crucial deciding factor as to whether or not an NPC should get an article (again, to say nothing of them actually having names, but I've already made that point). If they have a name, great, give them an...

These are the founding fathers of the United States of America. One of these people is definitely Thomas Jefferson. I'm just not particularly sure who's who. Does anyone happen to be good at identifying historical figures from pixely screenshots?

There's something to be said for creating something concise. SmashWiki's intro sentence alone brings up edgeguarding, aerials, "overhead vertical" attacks, and tech chases without explaining any of it in the rest of the article. These are completely meaningless to people who aren't familiar with...

If we're covering all of the information anyways, might as well present it in such a way that's more accessible for readers. Besides, we're not covering the same things as the SmashWiki; we're both pulling our information from the same source, but we're describing them in different ways.

If it helps out some of our users, I don't see the harm in it.

oi, m8 If you want to have a productive discussion relating to the wiki's content, we have the Wiki Contributions board for just that purpose.

the olympic games are also there, heathen

i'm terribly sorry for my transgressions

80 Million BC - Mario travels to the distant past and places a single egg in a cave 65 Million BC - An asteroid hits the Earth, creating a dimensional portal that the dinosaurs get sucked through 369 BC - Mario travels to back in time to Athens and returns a copy of Plato's widespread book...

Ah, good times. Why don't we do that anymore?

Bwuh, I don't remember at all. It was probably from Google, but I can't say for certain.

Welcome to the wonderfully wacky world of obscure Mario media! Watch as you witness events that you never thought possible! Tremble as you experience amazing delights portrayed in the strangest way imaginable! Shiver as you see exactly why Nintendo has become so protective of its franchises!

plasma, bruh

In theory, though, the game would be better if it was only reordered a bit. Like, instead of making you go out of your way to find the tour guide, maybe they could have the tour guide's brother directly come to you and say that the tour guide is somewhere over yonder, or instead of outright...

If you're going with food metaphors, the story is the cherry on top to me: the final flourish that can make a game outstanding. (but we've rambled on enough about a topic that's tangentially relevant to this thread, so let's end it here)

i'm not sure how to feel when a twitter account dedicated to posting weird sentences posts three separate articles of mine in quick succession

So maybe the solution is to not have the Rabbids as playable characters at all.

Bingo. My collection actually skips books 9 and 10, since those are Zelda books and I need a cut-off point somewhere. Edit: a better image of my bad habit

I mean, I'm sure that the game's going to be fun and visually appealing, much in the same way New Super Mario Bros. Wii was fun despite having Blue Toad and Yellow Toad as two of the four playable characters.

At some point, your hatred goes from silly to scary.

Or maybe they could not have characters that all look and sound the same except they're the other characters' clothes?

And four of them are Rabbids. Dressed as the other four playable characters.

Right now, my fear.

Can I request the deletion of the redirects World A-1 to World D-4 (listed here (Super_Mario_Bros.:_The_Lost_Levels#List_of_levels))? They're supposed to have individual articles, but the redirects hide that fact, making it seem as if they already have articles.

Sometimes, I'll read posts in a vaguely masculine or vaguely feminine voice based on the user's avatar, but most of the time, I just read it as plain ol' text.

On the other hand, you would then have to watch Cars 2.

And that's your opinion. I've enjoyed plenty of games with minimalistic plots, but all of my favorite games put just as much emphasis on the story as they do the gameplay. To me, a story can easily add meaning, purpose, and depth to gameplay, which makes the experience all the more engaging...

I'm just saying that they've survived without those elements for a long while.

The writing could use some work, but that is literally what happens, including the part about a raptor grabbing a pancaked Bowser and flinging him into the distance.

It's worked so far. Half of the main Mario games have literally been "hero saves princess from dragon" story.

When there are items (Gold Flower) that can literally produce a ridiculous amount of the area's local money, you really have to wonder how in the world the Mushroom Kingdom's economy is still afloat. Are they constantly being bailed out by Sarasaland and Bowser's kingdom?

Huh, you're right.

Game overs have been meaningless for a while now, anyways. I just hope this means that the challenges are actually challenging, since there isn't a concern about prioritising lives anymore.

I definitely agree with you in that the entire franchise, or even this game, isn't going to shift gears and become the next Witcher 3 or anything anytime soon. At the same time, as the franchise grows and more studios start to take the reins, it's only a matter of time until there's at least one...

I was about to say because he's already been the main villain once before (ish), but then I remembered that this is the franchise with the same villain every single time. Someone kidnapped the princess? Bowser. Someone took over the nearby kingdoms? Bowser. Someone stole King Kong from the...

Hoisting literally all of this on Miyamoto is rather silly. He isn't a puppetmaster who gets absolute control over everything in Nintendo.

Mario Tennis used to have creativity and originality. Now it's barebones beyond the characters.

That's rather arbitrary. Why limit the entire franchise to only having good gameplay and never a good story?

i am immortalized

Oh, I'm so glad I'm not the only one who doesn't like that. It's clunky and irrelevant to the subject at hand. I've already made a point of removing it whenever I've seen it. On topic, do you have an example of an article with a gold standard intro, something that could easily be used as a...

Scribblenauts also got an E+10 for "Cartoon Violence" and "Cartoon Mischief", as it lets you do things like strap a steak to a baby and then attract lions to it.

tbh i'm still salty about king knight being the final dlc you have polar knight with all of the implied backstory between him and shovel knight, and king knight wins out?

We're on a thread about unpopular opinions. What a shock.

in this case, your ears become so overwhelmed that it interferes with your other senses

Can we also use this thread for music? This is not kazoos.

i need a section for my bad habit

A 3D model version of Dimentio would just look wrong.

It's less "Mario + Rabbids" and more "Rabbids (featuring Mario from the Super Mario series)".

This is the list of enemies from the BradyGames guide for Super Mario Sunshine. They're weird, mangled romanizations of Japanese names except they don't always line up with the actual Japanese names. At the time, I dismissed them as being, but I've also picked up the Versus Books guide for SMS...
