How's the game? Did Nintendo plagiarize as much as in Mario Wonder?

What did they plagiarize in Wonder?

B u b b l e f l o w e r

Plagiarized from who? Ignoring that the general idea is...extremely basic and obvious.

Like, that's not really plagiarism on it's own. It makes a lot of sense. Is the suit color the same? Is bubble's interaction with enemies the same? When was that Bubble Flower created? How many people knew about that fangame beforehand?

Like, I'm not gonna call someone who's never heard of A Hat in Time a plagiarizer just because their song is simply called 'Train Rush'. It'd have to be undeniable.


bro have u not seen that one fanart of bubble mario? then, nintendo just went straight ahead, months later, and copied the EXACT IDEA AND SUIT COLOR! everything about it is the same!

As I said, they already used (most) of the mechanics in NSMBU for Bubble Baby Yoshi. The only one that wasn't there is bouncing off of the bubbles (I think)

And the "suit color" in question is literally just pink.

They would definitely have nuked stuff if they stole from it, I guarantee it. It was most likely just a coincidence for the color (Because it's literally just pink.)

We'll find out next 2D Mario though.



take a look at this. https://i.postimg.cc/7Z5PkH5S/Screenshot-2025-06-09-223403.png

and this. https://i.postimg.cc/rm335TV2/Screenshot-2025-06-09-224142.png

and im not saying the mechanics were copied, as these are just images, but the pretty much exact suit and idea and colors  and image was just copied. This is 3 images, it cant be a coincedince.

I hate to burst your bubble (lol) but the 2nd and 3rd images were created on the day of and a few days after the Mario Wonder Direct(where the new powerups besides the Elephant were first shown) respectfully. They're just fan art of the Wonder designs and only exist because of them. Not the other way around.

Only the first one has any merit, and again, the suit design in question is justpink. Soap bubbles are often represented as pink in media. It's literally just the color pink. There's no special design or anything, it's just fire flower with a pink shirt. Anyone could've done that.

Also, is there any particular reason they wouldn't have stolen the Bubble Cap Mario is wearing either? They already did something similar for Cloud flower. They definitely would've, I feel like, because that's literally genius. Incredible artwork. But again, it's just...pink.

I guess we can't have a Water powerup because of SMG4 then, with this logic. Or anything yellow because there's a lightning Mario in some fangame (I think it was a NSMBW hack)


well i just realized with the last 2, but still, i was scrolling through, and there were many more fanarts from way before smb wonder was announced. but theres so many fanarts, and you would think they would have even remotely different designs, but no. THEY'RE ALL THE SAME. Red, and pink. also its not just pink its also red. they might be linked in some way, but even if they were, theres way too many for nintendo to not see at least one. Nintendo could've tried to shake the design up a little, even a subtle change like making the gloves a different color, or making the hat red, which would've given you a way stronger point, but no. They didn't. So, in my opinion, this is complete plagiarism.

Fire Flower and Ice Flower also have the red overalls. Same for Luigi's overalls all going green. They literally did that first, sinfe the very first game. It's just how the flowers work. And again, cartoon bubbles are usually pink. Look at Stella from Angry Birds. You can't call plagiarism over a single colour.

Also, no non-suit Mario Powerup has ever changed the gloves color. There's literally no grounds for it. Heck, even the Bee Suit doesn't.



But they could've made the hat a different color.
They could've even made the M pink or smth
Even if, on some crazy coincidence, they didn't steal it, W H E R E   I S   T H E   C R E A T I V I T Y ,   N I N T E N D O ? ? ?

Brother, both Fire Flower and Ice Flower also use the same colours for their shirts & hats. You're literally making zero sense here. I can't think of a single power up that doesn't do this. The suits cover everything, the Flowers change the shirts, hats & overalls, the gloves have never changed, not even with the suits or Elephant.

I'd understand if it was something they did at some point, but they literally have never done that.

This is one of the few things that stays consistent in this entire series(aside from enemies). The only time it breaks is for the Boomerang Flower, which gives you a Boomerang Suit.

bro. they could've made the shirt dark blue. Just like how the cat suit is the same as the tanooki suit but different shades of yellow, they could have a darker blue than the ice flower for the bubble flower.

Then he could have little sky-blue bubbles, as bubbles are actually usually represented as blue, only pink if they're from soap.

Bro Cat Suit & Tanooki Suit are similar because they're both SUITS

These three are all FLOWERS

the only flower that isn't like this is ALSO A SUIT

Classic isn't a powerup so I dunno what you were trying to prove, fact remains that no powerup has ever done that.

Dark blue would make sense if it was water or something, but bubbles are never dark blue, and light blue is taken. And ice can't be dark blue either. Bubbles are depicted as pink though, hence the colour.

I'd readily agree if the only sign of potential theft wasn't a literal solid color.

Like, that's a Hexcode, anyone can use that. In fact, that gives me a great idea. Give me a moment.

2019 image hexcode: #d696d2
Bubble Mario art from Wonder: #eb8bf3

Already disproves it from being an exact copy.

Also, where's the rest of it? The artist specifically drew a bubble hat, with Mario skating on the bubbles. It's not like they wouldn't be able to code that: Kirby has been doing that since SNES with Ice.

Heck, we already saw a ROM hack from even earlier than this fan art that is actually 1 to 1 with Bubble Mario. It's not exactly a groundbreaking unmistakeable design. It's just Mario but pink. Give me 5 minutes and I could do that too with a color change.

Reread the bottom of the message now, I was editing it.

But literally what other colour could it be? Stella uses a  pale green herself (mint I guess?) but aside from that, that's literally it.

We also don't know for sure when Wonder's development started. (NSMBU was in 2012, and we already know that World was being developed from 2017). This could've been planned from before the image.

Cartoon bubbles are pink, hence pink. That's literally it. The ROM hack creator came to that conclusion in 2012. The fanart might've been based off of that for all we know. (I doubt it, but it could've)

As I said, cartoon bubbles are usually clearish-blue, not pink. Also, you can't be using exact hex codes. Like, if I drew an apple, and its hex code was #547823, and someone came along and copied my apple, they're obviously not gonna make it an exact color copy, that would be too obvious. Gimme a minute, and I'll find some more old fanarts.

"That would make it too obvious" this is not FNAF bro. You literally sound like a conspiracy theorist. The only reason against it you have is that it would be too obvious.

If that was the case, why use an even remotely similar color in the first place? Could it be that...there was no theft in the first place? Not that the artist owns that specific shade of pink.

And again, wheres the rest of their (incredible) idea at?

Not only are the bubbles different, half the powerup is missing. Are they stupid?

bro at least nintendo changed it a little bit, and, exactly. That's my question. Why use a similar shade of pink? make it your own! c'mon this is a multi-billion dollar company. they have the toold to make their own variation of a character.

And I'm saying that maybe, just maybe,

they didn't do that

because they didn't steal it to begin with?

Because they knew that they came up with it for themselves and didn't borrow the idea, and were completely unaware? I don't think Nintendo looks at Deviantart.

If you know that your creation is original, why go out of your way to change it? You don't need to prove it to anyone. That sounds more sus than just having something similar, atleast to me.

Cheat smart, not hard. (not that we'll ever know if they copied or not(again, the only thing we have to make that plausible is the color pink. Everything else is just standard flower costume Mario design and not a sign of theft))

Also, you still haven't pointed out where the rest of the concept went if they did steal it...

I dunno what Persona 4 itself is about. The series itself is SMT with a better story and worse gameplay. And slightly less funny dialogue.

High school teens and TV for this one afaik.

Roxas loves Persona, they know for sure.


It's a turn-based RPG with a TV dimension? I think thats it's Tartarus/Hell Tokyo(SMT) equivalent? These games focus on traversing alternate realities to fight people's inner-demons. Their deepes darkest thoughts and feelings that the public never gets to see. The real them, in a sense. That's what I've gotten from what I know about P5, atleast.

In SMT you just become god of all demons.

I know it has dating sim aspects, but most people aren't travelling to different dimensions and fighting demons irl.
