    They’re actors. In Mario Brothers 3 you can see the background bolted to the set and you go back stage at the end of every level. It’s a production. Then they do celebrity sporting events.

      Also the intro cut scene is a curtain being lifted.

      They’ve said as such at Nintendo. All the characters are actors, coworkers. If it’s Tennis Day, they’re playing tennis against each other. If it’s Smash Brothers day, they’re launching each other off floating platforms. Etc.

      Everyone in Hollywood (Mario Bros edition) is banging anyways. Surprised they dont have “Super Mario Orgy 3: Step-Daughters are Peachy!”

    My head canon is that the games where Bowser is the bad guy are just them playing roles and the sports games are their real selves. Rivals, not really enemies. Mario Kart World having all the mooks join in on the karting supports this idea.

    They actually are in a polyamorous relationship and Mario has a cuckold fetish and a saviour complex. At the end of the day, all 3 of them fuck Toad.

    Mario is a false narrator. She wasn’t kidnapped, she left him because he would spend his meager paychecks on drugs.

          I would say theoretically not. If you only do new construction nothing you touch has had shit on it yet. But then again it is intended for shit so it depends on where you draw the line

        Bowser has multiple castles to be fair, he is also buff and close to 6ft7. No contest.

    Mario did this only once. The game is the memory of his trauma, playing on a loop.

    Your playing is his therapy. Unless you lose. In which case, he wakes up from the bad dream in a cold sweat, and has to start all over.

      this is why Super Mario Brothers 2 is a dream and 3 is a play and Wonder is a ketamine therapy session

    Accidents happen in high speed races and no one is prosecuted. It would be a shame for an accident to happen to the lizard during the race.
