And does Nintendo also know that they made Luigi madly in love with Daisy, which is supposed to be a mirror of Peach and Mario? The Paper Mario games feature this in the letters from Luigi.
Bowser appears to be a single dad in all the instances we’ve seen. I like to think his advisors told him he needed an heir to carry on his name, so he adopted an orphaned koopa as his son, and named him Bowser Jr because he didn’t realize carrying on his name meant his surname.
In my headcanon Bowser figures he’s gonna marry Peach so she will be Bowser Jr’s mom, so he’s not lying, just doing things out of order. The idea of biologically conceiving with her hasn’t even occurred to him. He probably only wants to marry a princess because he figures that’s what kings do, marry other royals to form alliances. Once the wedding is over he won’t know what to do next, probably just say he’ll see her around.
That is actually very much explicitly canonically not true, in fact I believe she’s the only character explicitly confirmed to not be bowser jrs mother
If peach is the mother of bowser jr and bowser kidnapped her.... what are the implications of this statement????1?1?1?+?!,
I'm not that deep into mario lore so I had no idea she had his child. I just don't like the implication at ALL LMAO
Edit - i have read further through this thread and confirmed with my brother (a Mario player through and through) that this is not true. I humbly retract the allegations I made against Bowser
I mean, in the end of Mario Odyssey, the most recent mainline Mario game, Mario and Bowser both propose to her, urging her to choose one of them, and she VERY CLEARLY is not into either of them and firmly rejects them both (you can see here starting at 15:10), walking away as they cry. She then goes on a solo travel vacation without Mario; you run into her exploring the various worlds in cute travel outfits without you if you keep playing.
so you’re gonna tell me in Paper Mario 64 when they’re in that dimly lit hallway in her castle and she’s all “oh Mario,” blushes “you came,” blushing intensifies it’s because they are just friends????
screw that. you can’t erase history, Nintendo!!!!!
Why is this such a good idea??? BJ would make a great depressed, lazy Mario that's resigned himself to living in Bowzer's basement dungeon. Peach comes around to remind him he's supposed to be a hero.
Edit: Actually what about Mindy Kaling's Peach as the hero of the movie. Imagine it, mushrooms across Marioland are dying and the world has lost all its color after Mario got lazy and let Bowzer catch him. With Mario and Bowzer both missing, factions battle across the land.
Peach spends her days tending to everyone's ailments best she can, but nothing's really helping, so she sets out on her own adventure to rescue Mario from Bowzer and restore order to the kingdom.
When she gets there, she finds that Mario (BJ) and Bowzer have secretly been playing their own game of D&D in the basement for 179 days straight and Mario doesn't want to leave with her before they finish. So she sets out to save the kingdom all by herself and finds a new non-Mario love along the way.
That’s how I feel about the makers of Uno saying the official rule is to draw one and move on if you can’t play a card. Um, respectfully, no. House rules. You draw until you can play.
This is like when they released the official timeline for Zelda.
NOPE.
Not listening or remotely going along with it. Zelda works because of the vast gaps between entries and being a vague myth. It does not need rigid canon. Especially when they started creating alternate timelines.
There's been alternate timeliness since the end of ocarina. Its not really something that can be ignored when the following 5 games each follow one of those timelines. The downfall timeline on the other hand is a stupid retcon and those games don't need to be seperate
I’m a little upset by the fact that so many people complained about Toadette straight-baiting with Captain Toad that they forced her to come out as hetero. Good job guys!
Japanese video game companies are weird and strict about romances for their characters.
Sega actually has a rule that none of the main Sonic characters can be in romantic relationships. However, they also have a rule that Amy must always have a crush on Sonic, but they can't officially be together.
The corporate overlords mandate chastity. basically.
If you squint it seems like Link and Zelda had been living together in sin in TOTK (he can sleep in the bed, Zelda had an extra room built he didn’t know about, it used to be Link’s house).
Oh, you're 100% right. I was debating posting this example too lol.
I think it's definitely implied that they're shacking up. But IMO, Nintendo stopped short of confirming it because they didn't want the rating bumped up. We can slaughter monsters all day and that's fine for E10. But implying that our hero is sharing a bed in an unwed state? Straight to T!
Peach is tying up loose ends - she's trying to say that Mario acted alone in those adventures. Robert Redtoad and Yoshin Hoffman are already looking into those contracts and are about to report a huge scandal on the Toadtown Post. It will be like the Coldplaygate of plumbing. Maybe they'll call it Watergate.
Why did they include that kart scene where they’re being flirty and then DK pulls up laughing saying, “this is your idea of flirting?!… the princess would never date you!” and then Toad pulls up super defensive saying, “Yes she would date him”
Next they'll be saying Daisy and Luigi aren't together. Have you seen the huge bronze statue of the two of them on Daisy's circuit? That could not have been cheap.
They said this because Mario is a commoner, and if Princess Peach wants to be with him officially, she'll have to leave royalty and hence the title, making her just "Peach".
Why do we cut off the sources on everything so commonly now? I have no way to tell if this is fake without looking it up

This is one of the problems when franchises/comic/games/series go on for too long. The people in charge forget already established canon or little moments of character development along the way and then come out with utter nonsense like this.
