His name is canonically Mario Mario. His brother is Luigi Mario.

What a wild fuckin movie

[-] samus12345@lemmy.world 38 points 7 months ago

In that case, this is canonically a goomba:

And those Mario games with the little mushroom guys are just fanfiction.

[-] anarchrist@lemmy.dbzer0.com 10 points 7 months ago

But it all makes like a weird amount of sense. I mean Mario also isn't made of weird pixelated legos, either. It's like the writers were shown some stills from the game and told the basic story and then dropped acid.

I can see Yoshi being a raptor or even Dennis Hopper as Bowser since he's supposedly an evolved dinosaur, but how do you go from an anthropomorphic mushroom with just a head and feet to a reptilian humanoid with a tiny head?

[-] anarchrist@lemmy.dbzer0.com 8 points 7 months ago

Oh easily! They got high and confused koopa and goomba I think.

We know that SMB3 was a play but we don't know that the other games in the series weren't. The 1993 movie might be the only truly canon entry in the franchise.

[-] samus12345@lemmy.world 2 points 7 months ago

Somewhere there's a reality where that's true. I just hope it isn't this one!

[-] Lila_Uraraka@lemmy.blahaj.zone 3 points 7 months ago

I approve of this

Are Wario and Waluigi Marios?

[-] Nawor3565@lemmy.blahaj.zone 47 points 7 months ago

Funny enough, I don't think Wario and Waluigi are ever said to be siblings. Waluigi just kinda... showed up to a tennis match one day and then stuck around.

[-] No_Change_Just_Money@feddit.de 16 points 7 months ago

I really like the game theory to that

The baby versions of most mario characters, including Wario, were canonically stolen by Kamek in yoshi Island 2. At the end of the game, all children are returned to their parents expect for Wario, who steals all the gold of the island and flees with a raft

So the theory would be that Wario was waluigis brother but went missing as a child, and the two are just not realizing it.

It amazes me that he's been in 50 different games, but never as a primary antagonist or mini-boss.

[-] samus12345@lemmy.world 4 points 7 months ago

No, and they're also not related to each other.

[-] Bassman1805@lemmy.world 3 points 7 months ago

I'm convinced that they're lovers.

So wait, Imma need to have this explained to me.

I get that they're "roommates", in the historical sense. They should be, that's lovely, but...

What's actually about wapeach and wadaisy? What is there to understand?

[-] MBM@lemmings.world 7 points 7 months ago

My guess: Peach and Daisy exist as love interests for Mario and Luigi, but Wario and Waluigi already are each other's love interests

wapeach and wadaisy are roommates too, but they specifically have personalities that make them not prone to shit like getting kidnapped to be a plot point or competing in death races, so you never hear about them. Ones a social worker.

[-] orphiebaby@lemm.ee 0 points 7 months ago* (last edited 7 months ago)

That's not canon.

Edit: Out of curiosity, if you're downvoting me, are you downvoting because you disagree, or because the person meant it to be a joke? In the former case, it's both common sense and also Miyamoto said as much. In the latter case, there's no indication whatsoever that it's a joke, so would I have been wrong to "miss the joke"?

Knee-jerk, tribalistic reaction is dumb.

[-] kraftpudding@lemmy.world 9 points 7 months ago

Just fyi, I'm downvoting you solely because of the edit.
