The Spongebob Movie had drama and it worked, Toy Story 3 had drama and it worked, so Mario (and I'm talking about the mainstream games) could work with drama.

But they all have one thing in common: Their demographic is kids and yet Spongebob and Toy Story added some really heavy shitMagikrazy said:

This isn't a movie.
Spongebob's drama was generally played for laughs.
Toy Story is because while it was about talking toys, it was about talking toys in a real life setting and the struggles of having to deal with it.
Mario is about a bloody plumber who touches shrooms to grow bigger to stop a fire breathing turtle from taking over the world and stealing the princess. Its practically a parody of old fantasy cliches and its not exactly a concept that screams for dramatic storylines.

Super Paper Mario to me felt like the Mario equivalent of how the Spongebob movie was to Spongebob (Spongebob episodes typically didn't have a major threat to anything, while the movie was like, "shit just got real") It felt like an epic, grand adventure to save the world from utter annihilation, now THAT's how I like my Mario games.

I know what an opinion is. People pointing out that what I'm saying is technically an opinion is pointless and redundant.

And this is why you have skewed priorities on this franchise.
My advice is to try expanding your pallet, that way you'll stop expecting stupid things from this series.

Expecting Mario to have serious drama as its main story point is like expecting Rayman to have its story being primarily serious and dramatic. They just don't work
Sure Mario can have some emotional moments but it's ultimately supposed to be a series that doesn't take itself seriously. The moments worked in Thousand-Year Door and Partners in Time. But the main draw to their story is that they're still primarily based on humor and quirkyness.
