Fun Fact: In SMK, Yoshi, DK Jr. and Bowser, were made to be bullies.
Yoshi, a bully ? Where do you saw that ? 😂
On the topic of Yoshi, Nintendo has been giving Yoshi themed Mario Kart tracks music that doesn't fit.
N64 Yoshi Valley: 1/5 This song fits Moo Moo Farm better.
GBA Yoshi Desert: 1/5 Just a generic desert theme. Nothing special about it.
GCN Yoshi Circuit: 2/5 I had to give this one an extra point because, to be fair, all GCN Circuit tracks share this theme, so I couldn't say it doesn't sound like a Yoshi song.
DS Yoshi Falls: 1/5 This sounds more like a DK Track to me.
DS Yoshi Falls (MKWII): 1/5 Changed absolutely nothing.
N64 Yoshi Valley (MK8/DX): 1/5 still sounds too farm-like.
GCN Yoshi Circuit (MK8/DX): 2/5 Only GCN Circuit in this game (So far), but they did try to make it sound Yoshi-Themed.
Let's hope the datamined Yoshi's Island track has a good track.
The older games shared songs bc console limitations, you can't blame them.
ANd Yoshi Falls sounds like a Yoshi song, if they raised the pitch a bit it would be better.
And the remakes don't change the song, just the instrumentation.
And Yoshi Desert is gas, fight me

It only solidifies TTYD as the 2nd worst Paper Mario game.
You managed to anger most fans of a RPG franchise.
Congratulations
.There are a ton of people who have already & will in the future. No big deal.
But if the first battle of the game is because someone wanted to fuck a Goomba, in a town with a noose, cult, & murder, to be followed later by a DRAGON who is weak to a CRICKET SFX, it is the second worst Paper Mario game, ever.
The second helper was a scaredy-cat Koopa Troopa who's dad got swallowed by said dragon, & when he finally made up his mind to try hero-ing, he got dumped by his girlfriend. Does that sound like a good Paper Mario game to you?
Yes, it sounds like a really fun paper Mario game. You've pretty much sold the game for me and now I'm going to lose like £50.
To the games credit, atleast someone is alive at the ending besides Mario. Basically all the partners Kamikaze at the ending in the last 4 games.

There was a murder scene in the Japanese release of Paper Mario The Thousand Year Door that never made it into the West to maintain positive feedback from the ESRB and PEGI
I mean, the blood & noose are still there. I don't think that's true at all.

fun fact kirby was named after the lawyer john kirby
john kirby was a lawyer and had a case of defending nintendo after universal sued them because they thought donkey kong was a rip off of king kong and he won the case so nintendo named kirby after him [his original name was popopo btw] and following that kirby means "settlement by a church" and popopo means "indicates a gift of gab - the ability to persuade others effortlessly" idrk since i didnt find it on a trustworthy site

Sorry, but Sakurai confirmed this is false. The change was so American kids would remember the character(they thought Popopo was forgettable & they couldn't reuse Popo) & because of the Vaccuum cleaner brand of the same name, & a Vaccuum is exactly what Kirby was in the first game.

Waluigi Stadium will not be in Wave 6 lol, big misconception right there.
In any case, Hammer Bro, Petey, Parakoopa & Mii C were scrapped for MKWii also.

Did you know that pigs can eat everything, even humans? Just don't eat porkchop or you'll be the porkchop
Thought that was a goat only quality, I didn't know pigs could manage that too. Although tbf they eat actual garbage every meal.

In NSMBU/Deluxe, after you beat a miniboss level, a chest appears. If you don't open it for 30 seconds, Nabbit will come and steal the contents of the chest! 
Does that auto start a Nabbit Chase, or is it lost forever?

Fun Fact: In Mario Kart 8 Deluxe version 1.0, Inkling Girl used to do an offensive gesture when hitting someone with an item before being removed in version 1.1, this gesture was referred to as p*ssing someone off
Bonus Fun Fact: The Sailor Trainer class in GSC(GEN2)'s sprite had a similar pose by accident & almost made it into Gen 3, only changed in the final days of development.
Some other offensive/censored Pokémon stuff:
Registeel's Nazi Salute in Gen 4
Feraligatr's butt crack in Gen 2
Gen 5 Trading system to avoid vulgar nicknames accidentally stopped certain Pokémon from being tradeable(Eg. Cofagrigus)
Japanese Pokémon Cards have some WILD art.
Have ya ever seen the JP Miltank one? The pictures are a Journey.
Pokémon has been so censored it's crazy
Age rating makes such a difference. Stuff like this.
And then you have Square releasing FF6 as FF3 in North America, & then every American was confused when they immediately jumped to 7 out of nowhere. It's a really wide scale.

Fun Fact: The fastest ever time to finish a race is 0:01.93 seconds on GBA Cheese Land!
But how?
Some weird glitch to do with how broken the finish line is
Video Proof:
There's an SNES Donut Plains one similar to this, but I can't remember which one & it could be TAS only.

Fun fact: In Mariokart 8/8DX, Mario's face model has a pointy nose. His nose continues to his upper lip, the pointy bit is covered by his moustache.

Interesting fact :
Daisy’s 3D model in Mario Kart Wii (Basic outfit, not the Biker one) is the same in Mario Kart : Double Dash !!, in Daisy Circuit (with different textures) and in Block Plaza (with different textures also)
Fun Fact :
What Daisy has other Super Mario girls haven’t ?
Teeths
*What*

i dont get that fact at all
The 3D model of Daisy, used in Mario Kart Wii, is the same as in Mario Kart : Double Dash !!. Look :
In MKDD
Daisy’s official 3D model
Daisy statue in Block Plaza
Daisy statue in Daisy Circuit
Daisy’s winning animation in MKDD
They’re very similar, aren’t they ?
For the second fact :
In all Peach, Rosalina and Pauline’s artworks, they never had teeth.
Daisy has teeth in many artworks.
If you look at the Pauline’s 3D model in Mario Odyssey, she’s supposed to sing, but without teeth. Weird.
Rosalina’s 3D model in every game, like Peach, haven’t teeth.
Like, in Super Mario 3D World, Mario and Luigi have teeth, but not Peach no Rosalina (and Toad)
More scary stuff about it exists… Bruh.
Tbf the teethless characters wouldn't have had many mainline 3D game models to rip, only the spinoffs. Smart reusage.
Not like people eat in Mario or anything......
And I forget :
In Mario Strikers : Battle League Football, they added teeth to Peach, Rosalina and Pauline.
Daisy already had it, so it just don’t change.
In Mario Party 10 (I think this is it) characters are eating donuts or burgers (something like this), but HOW DO THEY DO ?!?
The same way Kirby swallows Mr. Frosty I guess. "It's a game, don't overthink it" sorta thing.
