Sorry I don't speak italian. so I ask chatgpt translate the brothers dialogue into italian. Here is the english translation.

Mario: She's really beautiful...

Luigi: uh-huh.

Mario: Oh my God, I can't believe I just danced with her! But I stepped on her foot... What if she hates me now?

Luigi: Nah, you're overthinking it.

Mario: Oh no, she definitely hates me now! I'm such an idiot...

so my headcanon is when Mario and Luigi are talking, they will use italian to talk to each other.

In Mario Kart 8/Deluxe, the motion of each character is governed by four independent systems: -animation (which action the character is currently performing, e.g. sitting in the seat, throwing an item, posing after a stunt, etc. In older Mario Kart games, this was the only factor) -head tracking (the character's head turns to look at other drivers and items as they pass by) -facial expressions (the character's face changes to show their current mood, e.g. happy after winning or in pain after being hit) -vehicle motion counterbalance (the character subtly shifts in the seat in accordance with the vehicle's movement by bending limbs or changing posture. Hair and other freely moving character parts also fall under this system)

To demonstrate that these systems are actually completely independent of each other, it is possible to turn one of them off and see that the other ones are still being applied to the character. In the footage, Daisy's animations are turned off, leaving her stuck in a T-pose. However, she still looks around, changes expressions, and even bends her arms and legs to balance the bike's movement.

"Battle Unit Yoshi", an extremely bizarre unique unused enemy found in the files of the GameCube version of Paper Mario: The Thousand-Year Door.

While it has the appearance of the Yoshi Kid partner when he is fighting against Mario during the Doopliss battle, it is coded as an enemy and a partner simultaneously. As such, it is an enemy for the purposes of damaging Mario and his other partner, but is actually controlled by the player. The player can even make this Yoshi access Mario's own inventory and use it against him, as seen in the footage.

It is unknown if the outlandish scenario of being able to control an enemy was ever intended to appear in the finished game, or whether it was merely used for internal testing.

I’ve been thinking too much about Wapeach this week. She gets hired by the Warios who want the status of having their own Princess. My hc is she slowly gets invested and ends up going full ohohoho-style villain after her and her boys get beaten down too many times

Home again! It was lovely trip and much fun was had, I already miss my friend and exploring the city; hoping to visit again next year. Our main event however was going to Collect-a-Con! We had planned this months ago, got all dressed up and hit the con floor with a mission.

And I succeeded! I got Charles Martinet's autograph 🌟. We saw he was going to be there, so months ago I decided to do a watercolor of an older sketch that had all the boys for him to sign. He even wrote the catchphrases for all the characters while doing their voices ✍️ Mario goes "WooHoo!!!" Luigi goes "HoHo!!!" Baby Bros go "Weee!!!" Waluigi goes "WA!" Wario goes "YA Ho!!" Ptttttttt -fart noises* It was magical, he was very nice to me.

Oh boy, the con adventure was so much fun. I had a list of cards I wanted and we spent hours hunting them down. (Then I get home and see I STILL have gaps in my collection, of course 🤣) Most we were able to find! Others we could not... and it wasn't that they weren't there, just that they were waaaaaaaaaaaayyy out of my budget. Like the fabled Mario Pika and Luigi Pika cards. Oh man, they are expensive. But at least I got to see them in real life.

The closest thing I'll ever get to owning one is if I make 'em myself 😆☝️ But yeah, good times were had.

The existence of the WarioWare games within the greater Mario universe is so fascinating to me because it means Wario is constantly going back and forth between two different friend groups, one of which seemingly doesn’t know the other exists at all.

I guess I have to admire his dedication to keeping his work and downtime activities completely separate from each other.

When I know Danny will be willing to voice Wario in the sequel, I can't help but draw Frank as Wario. some of the stuff he said just feel like what Wario will say. I have fun doodling these. Hope you guys will like it.

oh yeah and here is a rockstar Bowser I draw for my friend. Rock on 🤘
