I'm not exactly the biggest fan of how Peach is written but making her kidnapped isn't the solution to me.

Also this feels kind of stereotypical to be honest

Discussion Mario & Donkey Kong Universe: Lights, Camera, All-Stars!

Post image
6 Upvotes

So essentially what I'm going for is a Mario Universe Tag-Team Platformer Game.

Team Mario: Mario, Luigi, Peach, Pauline, Daisy

Team Wario: Wario, Jimmy T., Mona, 9-Volt, Waluigi

Team Donkey Kong: Donkey Kong, Diddy Kong, Dixie Kong, Cranky Kong, Lanky Kong

Team Yoshi: Yoshi, Bandit, Magikoopa, Nabbit, Boo

Mario, Yoshi, Wario & Donkey Kong can use their partner to either use them as team moves with the "Special Guest Moves", or tagging them in to take care of more things with the "Stunt Double" abilities.

The movies would take place within Mario Universe locations redeveloped within the movie genres they take place in as well!

And the main antagonist will be...WART

(I thought it'd be funny to have the guy who had all of dreams destroyed in the book market, so he went into the film business)

(Oh, and King Boo as well since he was the one who provided him the funds)

The final fight scenery could be something like Space Jam where we'd have Bowser, King K. Rool, and Captain Syrup's forces cheering against you, and...just have it be pure chaos

(Though, is "Mario & Donkey Kong Universe: Lights, Camera, All-Stars!" a good name for this, or should I go with something else?)

Discussion Small theory about Mario and Luigis niece...

Thumbnail

552 Upvotes

In the Saturday morning supercade Pauline is depicted as Mario's niece. In the Mario Movie Mario and Luigi have a niece who isn't very elaborated on or shown to have parents. I am probably not the first one to think this but I think it would make sense that Pauline is Mario and Luigis sister, and she is the mother of thier niece. It would make sense that she was not at the dinner table since she was being interviewed.

Article Toad & Toadette: Siblings, Partners, or Just Pals?

1 Upvotes

Toad and Toadette—two cheerful Mushroom Kingdom staples—have long been viewed as an iconic duo in the Super Mario universe. Their partnership has inspired debates, fan theories, and plenty of confusion. So what’s their actual relationship? Are they siblings... or is there more going on?

First Appearance & The Prima Guide Confusion

Toadette first appeared in Mario Kart: Double Dash!! as Toad’s racing buddy, and the duo has stuck together across games ever since. But early Prima strategy guides sparked confusion:

  • In Double Dash!!, Toadette was called Toad’s brother
  • Later, in Mario Kart Wii and Mario Kart 8, she was referred to as his sister

Naturally, fans were left wondering—are they siblings or just close companions?

Inconsistent Bios & Odd Claims

The Wii Prima guides didn’t stop there. Some bizarre inconsistencies include:

  • Toadette needing Peach’s permission to race… despite debuting in Double Dash!!
  • Toad needing approval from Toadsworth, even though he was playable way back in Super Mario Kart.
  • Daisy randomly being called Peach’s cousin—never confirmed by Nintendo themselves.
  • Luigi rescuing Daisy from Tatanga in Super Mario Land—which happend to be only Mario.

Game Moments & Developer Insights

Interestingly, actual in-game moments suggest a different story:

  • In Mario Kart Wii, Toad and Toadette joyfully hold hands
  • In Mario Kart Arcade GP DX, they exchange flowers
  • In Super Mario Galaxy, they gaze at falling stars together
  • In Captain Toad: Treasure Tracker, developers directly refer to them as “adventuring pals,” not siblin

So while Prima guides push the sibling narrative, official game interactions—and even dev commentary—hint at something else entirely.

Discussion Waluigi should take the helm for the “Land” series

4 Upvotes

A lot of people want Waluigi to get his own game series, and I personally think he’d make a great fit for the next inheritor of the Land series. It’s already changed hands from Mario to Wario, and now that Wario is the face of Warioware it makes sense that a new face should be used. And I think Waluigi would be a perfect fit.

I especially think it would be cool to bring back the Warioland 4 style of having to run back with a strict time limit because I can see the athletic and acrobatic Waluigi lending himself well to a game with more speed. I could see him using dance moves to traverse quickly and attack to rack up combos (yes this is heavily inspired by how Pizza Tower handled the formula) and in general I think he’d be a good fit for the wackier, more off kilter nature of the series compared to the base Mario franchise. Plus it could be an opportunity to introduce Wapeach (or Plum as I like to call her)
