Daiwa Scarlece doodle as an attempt to get back into drawint after a nasty artblock. Not very good but it’s better than nothing!

Top: the Super Mario World manual bizarrely lists a name for a location in the game that has no levels on it, and exists only as a cosmetic geographical feature: Kappa Mountain. It is named this due to the lake on the top resembling a small pool of water on the concave heads of the Kappa creatures from Japanese mythology.
Middle: however, development files for the game contain a tile map depicting an early version of the Yoshi's Island submap. Overlaying the finished map (left) with the early map (right) reveals...
Bottom: ...that Kappa Mountain was at some point intended to have a level on it, as seen by the dot matching up perfectly with the lake. It is theorized that this was originally the location of the Yoshi's Island 4 level, which takes place on a lake. The fact that it was not originally intended to be empty explains the eye-catching nature of the mountain and the fact that it was given a name.

you know how if a human kisses a frog it will turn into a human? it's the opposite for mice. mouse saliva has transformative properties that will gradually turn you into more of a mouse with each kiss. but if you kiss too much, it's permanent, you're a mouse forever.

anyway that's the legal disclaimer out of the way. how many kisses you want?

In Super Mario 64, regular Goombas, giant Goombas and tiny Goombas never appear together in the same area. Here is a comparison image showing their size differences in relation to each other.

Luma's voice in all games is provided by Yuya Takezawa. By slowing down the sound bites (here, taken from Mario Tennis Aces), we can hear an approximation of what the original recording sounded like before being edited to match the intended high-pitched Luma voice.
