Mario has no canon Everyone used to know this back in the day.

Now everyone just assumes there's a canon because the games have become more homogenized and lazy with regards to setting and enemy designs

IIRC the Koopalings names were wrong because the show started airing within a few months of SMB3 coming out, and the US names for the Koopalings weren't finalized until after the production on SMB3 was supposed to start.

So DiC just made up their own names and went with that.

The answer is Dobson for thinking the Amerocan cartoons which had no creative input from Nintendo are somehow canon or at all representative of the original creator's intentions for the characters. Double autismo is the fact that he still feels this way into his 30s.
