Super Mario Bros -

I checked quickly and realize we don't have a thread dedicated to Mario.

Let's start with discussing this: What character do you choose when you play Mario Kart with friends? Ever since Double Dash I've chosen Peach.

Which character is your Mario Kart main?

 

[Sperglord Dante]

Peach always always looks pretty bland on the "mainline" games and most of the sports spin offs.

I'd smash Smash Peach though.

Waluigi, i used to play as him a lot in Mario Kart Wii and Mario Kart DS

That's how I felt about Daisy until she got into Smash. Daisy looks cute for once in Smash Ultimate.

She was pretty cute in her early days though.

Now it's a real fandom thread lmao

I grew up with an Atari 800xl so I've only ever known a world with the cement factory in Donkey Kong

Toad mains are the most untrustworthy Mario Kart players. They're the type to break into your house and steal out of you medicine drawer while you're asleep.

Oh and they spam blue shells.

If we want to talk about shitty Mario, why don't we bring up the fucking movie?
God that was such a piece of shit.

This is a pretty good breakdown of what the movie was and why it sucked so bad.

I wonder why they don't use a model for Peach similar to her Smash model in the rest of the games, i mean, like you said, look at this





The difference is night and day

SSB Peach looks way better than any other version of Peach

This movie is mystifyingly bad. Do we know why Daisy is in the film but not Peach?

Bad writing, I'm sure.
The problem with that movie is that the production company who got the rights to it also had full creative control and not Nintendo.

That movie was one of the first time I remember being let down by a Hollywood production.

It's so terrible. I mean would it have been that hard to read the manuals from the games and get ideas from there in the '80's?

In Mario Kart, I tend to bounce between various characters, but Mario and Luigi are the two that I tend to use.

That's just it: they weren't going for quality. They just wanted a payday. It could have been a good movie if Nintendo had retained creative control over the project, and I think they've learned from the experience.

That's part of why they tend to quash any fan made stuff.

 

[Pickle Inspector]

Spoiler

But seriously any of the heavy karts like Bowser or Wario

Isn't that the problem with most video game movie adaptions? Studios hope that people will go see video game movie adaptions because of name recognition so they usually hire people who haven't played the games and tend to make bad movies already because easy money. Yet again even when they do hire people to make movies based on video games who are fans of the games, the movies turn out to be utter shit (Warcraft and Resident Evil comes to mind here). Maybe video games are just hard to translate into movies...

Mortal Kombat 1 and Castlevania are the only decent video game adaptations. We must crack this formula.

Mortal Kombat was entertaining but was still shit. The closest video game movie I've seen that was almost decent was Rampage because all it needed to be was a dumb monster movie and that's all it was without trying to be anything it's not.

It was exactly the kind of dumb schlock it wanted to be and was meant to be.
