Look at it! Look at it! LOOK AT IT!

[Mcmadness]

It looks like Mario is kidnapping Peach in that.

Cover for a SMBSS DVD, obviously inspired by the SMB1 scene art.
Why the Princess appears to be an infant, though, is anyone's guess. "Two Plumbers and a Baby" was on volume two, while this was the image for volume one (later the combined set as well, admittedly).

And, most importantly, this does not accurately depict Super Show, just as Super Show does not accurately depict the games.

That art is so old it's straight up from the 80's, no lie.

'Sup Hinokuri?

 

[Mcmadness]

And within it's gaping jaws Mario felt for the first time true fear.

 

[Moldomré]

*screaming being*

Is that grey thing the face Link makes when he transforms into a Goron in Majora's Mask? Looks familiar.

 

[Marioro]

 

[Doc von Schmeltwick]

It's the mask for that unused enemy from Super Mario Sunshine.

Mario goes back to 1905 and meets Einstein.


wait

 

[Mcmadness]

"Let me tell you about my greatest regret, the atomic bomb."

 

[LeftyGreenMario]

What, did Bowser steal it?

 

[Doc von Schmeltwick]

Einstein's grasp of relativity is so strong he can break time.


Also please note he should be 26 here.

Anyways, what he stole was the written-down E=MC2, even though Einstein should just as easily be able to write another.

 

[Koops]

Would've been smarter to go for the bomb.

In fact that would've ensured the eradication of the Mushroom Kingdom, so yeah.

 

[Teedgee]

what

 

[Doc von Schmeltwick]

Backpack Mario isn't a viable powerup, is it?

 

[zel]

its him.. Mario Party

 

[Moldomré]

Backpack Mario isn't a viable powerup, is it?

Actually that's Mario that used Cappy to capture a backpack.
Welcome to the headcanons thread everybody .

 

[Doc von Schmeltwick]

If Mario captures your lunchbox, he's already eaten your lunch.

 

[LeftyGreenMario]

How. How have we not brought this up after 157 pages.

Yoooo, can we agree that this fan sprite sheet is a major step up?

I don't know if it's necessarily more fitting or the colors are true to the original, but IMO this looks sooooo much better.

 

[Marioro]

I think the face is less clear than the og sprite despite the better shape and colors are a bit off, but yeah it's gud.

 

[Moldomré]

Context.
I need context.

 

[Doc von Schmeltwick]

Context is
SWWWING YOUR ARMS FROM SIDE-TO-SIDE....

 

[LeftyGreenMario]

Is that a deflated Kirby in the background?

 

[Koops]

Do you need context when this is presented to you?

 

[Doc von Schmeltwick]

I dare you to find something cuter than plumber Peach.

Not sure what's going on with Mario's....entire head, though.
