2001: A Mario Odyssey

[Koops]

The location is called, I believe Bonneton. I saw that on the wiki.

That black and white area with the top hat theme gives me a strong Count Bleck vibe. I'm not going to set myself up for disappointment and say he might appear, but I hope there's some sort of callback or implication that he has a connection with that area.

 

[Mcmadness]

Because top hats originated with Count Bleck.

 

[Fawfulthegreat64]

Not top hats but depressing black-and-white areas combined with top hat themes and the fact that the thing that set off that game's plot is happening again here. Just seems like a good opportunity to throw a bone in that direction. I'm not pushing for anything major but even something subtle that shows they realize the similarities would be nice.

eh let's not dwell on it lol

I think it's more related to Cappy looking like a ghost wearing a hat when Mario first meets him, I find he has quite an evil face sometime, and makes me wonder if he will be involved in a plot twist near the end.

 

[Fawfulthegreat64]

If it's a land of the dead, I wonder if it'll relate to the day of the dead-like stuff in Tostarena.

 

[Mcmadness]

It's the land of dead hats.

 

[Fawfulthegreat64]

So that means Mario's hat, after Bowser flattens it, goes to hat hell and Cappy possesses it?

 

[Time Turner]

It's the land of dead hats.

So we'll be seeing fedoras and energy domes?

 

[Mcmadness]

So that means Mario's hat, after Bowser flattens it, goes to hat hell and Cappy possesses it?

Well when Cappy turns into Mario's hat he is holding a rag that looks like Mario's hat.

 

[Fawfulthegreat64]

That's the dead hat I guess, and that flashy stuff is him restoring it to better condition and possessing it.

Sorry, kids, Mario too hardcore for anyone under 15.

 

[Crackin355]

yeah

just like mario party ds

im glad we're protecting the children

 

[J-Yoshi64]

But why, though?

 

[Time Turner]

But why, though?

Gambling, probably? Even heavily fictionalized versions of gambling, like the slot machines in Pokemon, are seriously judged by certain areas.

 

[Koops]

So, I was looking at the official atlas for the game, and I found something.

Look just right the center of the map, you will see a Groenland-ish island that has snowflake shaped edges.

Here's the image taken right from the source for reference.

Do you see it? It looks like it could be the Ice world, and I know we still have Tostarena's Ice boukders and all, but still, if you look, Tostarena is on the other side of the map. So, anyone?

First one since NSMB. I thought Mario Galaxy was G-rated?

Rated M for Mario

• Mario
  
  Wedding Mario

  Gold Mario
  
  8-bit Mario
  
  Dr Mario
  
  Luigi
  
  Peach
  
  Wedding Peach
  
  Yoshi
  
  Yarn Yoshi will give a woolly costume
  
  Rosalina
  
  Bowser
  
  Wedding Bowser
  
  Bowser Jr.
  
  Wario
  
  Donkey Kong
  
  Diddy Kong

All other amiibo will probably give you some random tips.

 

[Koops]

So wedding Peach amiibo gives Mario a wedding dress and tiara?

 

[Fawfulthegreat64]

They better not tie Luigi to an amiibo costume instead of making him playable normally.

 

[J-Yoshi64]

All I can think of is Toadia's trouble in TTYD.

 

[Magikrazy]

Ever notice how the two best 3D Mario games don't have Luigi?

GAME THEORY: Could Luigi be holding back Mario 3D games???!!

 

[YoshiGo99]

You mean 3 best?
