post any random Mario thought on your mind

Final Fantasy VI is a massive game, it's pretty clear that Super Paper Mario is developed by people who have complete adoration of Final Fantasy and Dragon Quest.

I'm not sure of how derivative of this game storywise other popular rpgs have been. I've played little.
 
Bowser and his Koopa army should just surrender already. He's kidnapped Princess Peach, what, probably thousands of times over the last 40-something years the franchise of Super Mario has been around, and all his evil plans always fail and Mario always rescues her. Just saying.
 
Mario & Luigi games should have an option for two players.
I.E Superstar Saga was made accidentally two player accessible with the Gameboy Player attachment to the Gamecube. All controller inserts worked as Player 1, so theoretically with a second person in the room with you, you could agree with them that one of you controls Mario (a) and the other Luigi (b). It was fun, and would be even more fun if they made multiplayer on purpose.
 
In my opinion, the main baby characters are Baby Mario, Baby Luigi, Baby Peach, Baby Daisy, and Baby Rosalina. Baby Bowser could be included as well, although he is pretty much isolated from the rest for pretty much staying in the Yoshi games (with very few Mario games with him, like Mario & Luigi: Partners in Time).

It may be true that Baby Daisy and Baby Rosalina first appeared in the (first-party developed) Mario Kart games, but they have more appearances and have more merchandising. Whereas for the other two that first appears in a (third-party developed) main game Yoshi's Island DS, each only appear in like one other game each (Baby DK in Mario Super Sluggers, Baby Wario in Dr. Mario World).

Thank you for reading.
 
You know, I never wondered about this up until now, but...How do the Endless Stairs in Mario 64 work from a game programming angle? Like, how do you program such a thing and make it work as intended?
 
You can see the magic behind it in the bottom screen in Super Mario 64 DS.
 
I wonder if you can bypass the reset if you're going slow enough (we know it can be be passed if you're going fast thanks to the Backwards Long Jump.)
 
A Mario game with Final Fantasy IV music is a pretty crazy thing and I don't know why I find it normal.
