Max Max: Yoshi Road

Damn I'm bummed that that's not the actual dialogue from the game

 

[RandomYoshi]

They always seem to have a stupid grin on their face and are sometimes seen with their tongue hanging out; also, their eyes perpetually stare in different directions, which may imply that they suffer from divergent strabismus.

Hmm, what do we actually know about the biology and related topics of the Donkey Kong universe, really?

 

[Magikrazy]

Their eyes got that way in The Great Ape War.

I just checked, and it wasn't there. So I added it, because obvious.

 

[Dardy]

Confused
Not to be confused with confusion.

 

[LeftyGreenMario]

His foster-parents attempt to talk him out of this, but Mario insists that he will save Peach, the elderly couple accept his decision and send him off with a container of his favorite food and a gun before wishing him luck on his journey.

 

[Glitchy Bowser Jr.]

His foster-parents attempt to talk him out of this, but Mario insists that he will save Peach, the elderly couple accept his decision and send him off with a container of his favorite food and a gun before wishing him luck on his journey.

And people say Mario never uses guns

 

[LeftyGreenMario]

My concern is that why the hell two old Hammer Bros. have guns in the first place... you'd think it would be more useful than Hammers...

It's not even a pistol. And holy crap, I didn't even notice Mario was holding a gun in that picture...

 

[Walkazo]

It's a family heirloom.

 

[Glowsquid]

It's a family heirloom.

holy shit lol

 

[LeftyGreenMario]

That tidbit wasn't in the wiki.

 

[Walkazo]

Yeah, I did the Issun-boshi plot a while back, but really gotta get around to the other two (and hell, review the first one), especially now that a good fan-sub is available again, since last time I looked into it, it was pure listening comprehension. I watched a fair chunk of Momotaro the other day to get the screengrab and could understand most of it with the sub prompts, and the translations match up well - the only liberties take are when colloquialisms and whatnot get swapped out in order to sound natural (like "take care!" / "I'm leaving" in Japanese gets turned into "take care!" / "I will" in the subtitles). I'll try to get around to it tomorrow afternoon (barring any unforeseen circumstances): too tired tonight.

I get a feeling that BJAODN is about to get a lot larger

 

[LeftyGreenMario]

Oh cool, other people found this funny as well?

These are my favorites

DK Kongs is named after Donkey Kong.

DK Animals derives from the Kongs, their Animal Friends and the Kremling Krew being animals.

[Glowsquid]

DK Kongs is named after Donkey Kong.

That one made me chuckle for a minute straight. It hit a perfect zen of stupid...

 

[Walkazo]

Diddy Monkeys comes from the species that the Kongs are.

Not all of them are monkeys...

 

[LeftyGreenMario]

Diddy Monkeys comes from the species that the Kongs are.

Not all of them are monkeys...

Yeah, I chose this one because it's blatantly incorrect. It's like saying Mario and Luigi are monkeys.

 

[Nysic]

Yoshi Eggs comes from the Yoshi Eggs that Yoshi can create.

i laughed

 

[Magikrazy]

Waluigi Mistiques could be from many of Waluigi´s powers that are rather mystical.

Waluigi is apparently a powerful wizard.

Waluigi Smart-Alecks may come from Waluigi's sarcastic personality.

Can't forget that sarcastic personality that Waluigi definitely has and is definitely shown in every game.

Waluigi Mashers has the same origin as the above name.

This one legitimately confuses me.

 

[LeftyGreenMario]

Seeing the reactions here, I think it's worthy for archive on the BJAODN.

Oh, and if you guys think these are only recent, some of these "facts" were here for years.

Some of my favourites of those are:

DK Kongs is named after Donkey Kong.

Diddy Survivors is derived from Donkey Kong and Diddy Kong's power of surviving.

Diddy Ninjas is named after Diddy Kong's fighting skills, as he can fight like a ninja.

Wario Steakheads (when Wario has a majority of team members with a high Power stat): is derived from Wario's brute strength.

The Luigi Mansioneers is derived from Luigi's Mansion, which includes Bowser due to being in King Boo's painting.

I know there's no problem, as it's taken out of context of Super Mario Maker's trivia point, but this sounds really ridiculous

"...one of them is of Mario falling and landing at the bottom, shaking himself off and jumping back to the top, getting into a car, laughing and yelling, "Bye bye!" and then driving off..."

I think the last statement is based on how certain team names are assigned based on team structure. If you include certain teammates or types of teammates, you get one of the many names. But yeah, I had to think that one through for a bit before "getting" it.

I know there's no problem, as it's taken out of context of Super Mario Maker's trivia point, but this sounds really ridiculous

"...one of them is of Mario falling and landing at the bottom, shaking himself off and jumping back to the top, getting into a car, laughing and yelling, "Bye bye!" and then driving off..."

A lot of Super Mario Fact's statments (which this thread is supposed to be based on) are taken out of context, so don't feel ashamed to quote-mine.

On very rare occasions, when falling into a pit, the death jingle is replaced by a much longer sound clip; one of them is of Mario falling and landing at the bottom, shaking himself off and jumping back to the top, getting into a car, laughing and yelling, "Bye bye!" and then driving off.

It's not like it's less ridiculous even when you're factoring in the context.
