Now that the dust has settled, I think we can agree that Mario Madness was, dare I say it, the quintessential Ness scotformer.

Why did SMBSS have King Koopa commanding Shy Guys and Snifits? Those are supposed to be Wart's goons.

they were controlled by the Koopa regime back in the days of Yoshi's Island.

What does /vr/ think of calling things the wrong and pretending it's the right name? Sure seems to be a popular activity around here.

It's a fun game, but Super Mario 3 is more of a novelty. Sorry to bottroff anyone here who thinks otherwise :)

It was decided that Bowser would control them after Wart choked on Bowser's huge spiky turtle-dragon tallywacker.

This is one of those games that i look back on and think of how surreal it is that i beat it as a single-digit child.

>> No.7158449

>>7156962
Bowser commanded Shyguys since the Mario Brothers were babies, this childhood trauma makes Mario and Luigi try and avoid encountering Shyguys and Snifits during the mainline games.
until the nightmare that was Mario Madness, that is...

Somehow the first Mario I ever beat (All-Stars). Fun, stylish, and surprisingly tough game. Le "DYKG" posters that say it's just a port of Doki Doki Panic get it wrong. SMB2 let you choose your character before every stage and didn't make you beat the game with all four characters, both unlike DDP. Mario all the way.

Super Mario Bros Super Show was originally going to have Wart as the villain but was changed at the last minute to Koopa. Notice how most of the show is based around SMB2 since it was the latest game. A good decision to change it to Koopa but sadly that means we now have no Wart.

King Koopa is a Bowser/Wart composite character. You'd know this if you had the Super Mario Bros. 2 ViewMaster reel. (Though, to be fair, Bowser and Wart are different characters in the Nintendo Adventure Books continuity, where Wart is mentioned once as being Bowser's cousin.)

Lost Levels wasn't a real Mario game. Its story isn't "Bowser has kidnapped the Princess for a second time!", it's "Here's more levels!"

It's not even that I don't "like" them, they're inoffensive, but very persistent shitposts.
The sega system guy is a confirmed schizo that can go on 24 hour shitposting marathons, he also has the same style of the scotformer/mario madness/mayors spammer. It would be weird if it wasn't the same guy, really.

my favorite mario next to world. Feels very precise and is much more satisfying to become skillful at.

1 was ok and 3 is really overrated imo.

LL has lots of new things. Different physics when bouncing off enemies, flying bloopers, red piranhas, poison mushrooms, normal enemies underwater, wind, green springs, luigi mode, extra worlds past 8, backwards warps, a battery save for counting game clears, new tiles for levels. How much does a game have to add?
