Unpopular opinions about the Mario series

It's a "song" with a two second loop. Most of the time, people hate songs like that. I don't see what's so different about the starman invincibility. The Superstar Mario theme from Super Mario World 2 (Wing Cap in Super Mario 64) is a better since the song is now just a background beat.

But (unpopular opinion alert) the metallic theme is better than the Wing Cap theme.

Actually, I'm not sure about that in the individual fan level, but on a developer level, you never hear cover versions of the Metal theme in the later games, as opposed to the Superstar Mario/Wing Cap theme. I could be wrong, but the Superstar Mario/Wing Cap theme seems to be pretty famous and more remembered (OC "remixes" for instance; the cover versions in New Super Mario Bros. and Super Mario Galaxy).

So that's how I came to that conclusion.
 
It's repetitive, but it's not as bad I guess because you don't hear it as much and people don't remember THAT.

I give it to you, though, the disco variant of the Starman invincibility in Strikers Charged is the best one by far.
 
I really liked the sound of the characters groaning in Mario Kart DS when they get hurt (especially when it's from my opponents). The one that I liked most comes from Donkey Kong, whom I like to hear when he has a misfortune in not only this game, but from the Mario Party games for the Nintendo 64.

Thanks for reading.
 
I think the best groaning noises are from Mario Kart Wii.

Try getting a bad start (or going off-bounds, not falling off or falling into water although both are funny too) with Donkey Kong several times.

Mario Kart 7 has the best Wario kill noises
 
time trials is always a lame and boring mode
 
The only time I find Time Trial fun is when trying to beat those Staff Ghosts. It's nice that there is such a feature since it's otherwise not terribly exciting. For instance, Mario Kart DS has those, and recently I have beaten all the Staff Ghosts in Mario Kart 8.

peach is the most interesting and developed character in the franchise.

all due to the spin-offs of course
 
Don't call it Mario Kart 6. ;_; I hated the titles for the 3DS and Wii U installments.
 
Would it be preferable if Mario Kart have pun-based titles around numbers for sequels? I am thinking like how Puyo Puyo has pun-based titles based around numbers, such as Puyo Puyo Sun where "san" is three in Japanese, but it also revolves around the sun as a plot and a game mechanic.

Just speculating, but maybe like how the next Mario Kart will be based around Nintendo franchises because "nine" and "Nintendo" are similarly worded, so maybe "Mario Kart Nine-Tendo"?

Thanks for reading.
