My experience with Mario Strikers since I got it 2 days ago...

My and my lil bro crack jokes whenever I play... and I tend to rage when I see the A.I. pull some bullshit 🤣

Holy cow

Why do I look so awesome?

[jell-o101]

Love the animation! I do have a question though, how was Luigi crackling with electricity? Did he somehow build up a ton of static? And what about that panel with the lava flow? I'm not sure which character that's supposed to be or what we're looking at...

To answer question one:

Its his Thunderhand from Mario and Luigi: Superstar Saga.

Its this cool ability he gains when he touches an electrical orb that's connected to the Thunder God, who makes a cameo in the comic (he's kinda just there afraid to confront who ever "stole" the Thunderhand). What's awesome about this is that Mario also has his own ability called the Firebrand!

Another cool thing about it is that his Thunderhand is referenced in other games as well like Mario Strikers Charged-

And even in Smash (he doesn't really use electricity in any of his moves which is a crime to me tho)

Heck, even as Mr. L in Super Paper Mario he calls himself The Green Thunder

Now to answer the second question.

Remember the last Koopa guard from the end of ACT 1?

You thought I forgot about him? HA! He's gonna be QUITE the thorn on KP's side.

So recently after the Mario Movie I've seen many people going under the assumption that the Blue Shells from Mario Kart are Koopa Troopas shells, and that Blue Shelled Koopas are special high ranking Koopas. However while the Blue Shell is a Koopa shell it is not a Koopa Troopa or Paratroopa shell but rather a Spiny Shell. This is evidenced by the countless manuals, in game info, and even cards referring to it as such. You also have the while non canon Mario + Rabbids referring to it as a Spiny shell through the Phantom or a large fossilized Spiny Shell. There is also the appearance of the shell usually and mostly appearing like Spiny shell with a smooth appearance. Now while recent games have given it segments making it somewhat more resemble a Koopa Troopa shell, Red Spiny shells also have dawned this appearance. These include the ones from Mario Strikers Charged, Mario Party 3, and Super Mario Strikers. There is also the fact that no Blue Shelled Koopas in game have a spiked shell. Whether it be the Blue Shelled Koopa Troopas from Super Mario World or Kooper from Paper Mario 64, not a single one wears a spiked Blue Shell. While the Spiny Shell of Mario Kart is made by a company for the events, there are some beings in game that wear such shells as armor. You have Major Burrows from Super Mario Galaxy and you have the Sky-Blue Spiny Paper Mario The Thousand Year Door.

Guys, please listen to "Kronos Unveiled" from The Incredibles because that song gave me the angst Bowuigi idea that I'm about to share with you all.

(And just a quick heads up, if some of the ideas look familiar, it's because I took inspiration from this one-sided Bowuigi angst post I made a while back and The Secret Alliance Bowuigi WIP idea I talked about back in early April.)

(Adding a cut here because this might be long otherwise.)

*******************************

Okay, so after countless failed attempts of marrying Peach, Bowser decides to change his evil ways and become a good guy. Happy to see that Bowser is finally changing his ways, Luigi starts visiting Bowser to help him on this good path journey, which results in them becoming good friends (and maybe eventually become a couple, but I'll go over that more at the end). As Peach sees Luigi and Bowser's friendship (and sees that Bowser actually wants to become a better Koopa), she asks Bowser if he wants to sign a peace treaty with her as a way to bring their two kingdoms closer together, which Bowser 100% agrees to because this is something he also wants to do.

However, not everyone is accepting of Bowser's newfound kindness.

So at first, Mario was very wary of this new version of Bowser because he was worried that Bowser was going to take advantage of Luigi's kindness and use him to get closer to Peach and the MK. However, after some long 1-on-1 talks with both Luigi and with Peach, he starts to realize that Bowser has actually been telling the truth and genuinely wants to stop the conflicting war between the two kingdoms.

That is, until people started to go missing.

Now at first, it wasn't very noticeable. Mario figured that all the different royals he needed to talk to were just taking a vacation or were sick and couldn't reach back out to him. However, after noticing that his close friends and very important people (i.e., Yoshi and Rosalina) were missing, that's when Mario realize that something was up.

So after about a week or so, Mario tells Peach and Luigi that he's going to visit Daisy for a week just to catch up. They haven't seen each other since the Strikers Tournament, so Mario figured that it would be a good time to travel to Sarasaland to see what the spunky and out-going princess is up to.

At least, that's what he told Peach and Luigi.

In actuality, Mario is instead going to secretly visit Professor E. Gadd. The reason? Mario needs to borrow an invention from E. Gadd that'll either help him break into Bowser's Castle and/or take pictures of what's going on behind closed doors at Bowser's Castle (as a way to prove to Peach and Luigi that Bowser's not as good as he saids he is).

And E. Gadd agrees to let Mario borrow an invention.

So after about a day of travel, Mario quietly breaks into Bowser's Castle without trouble and doesn't immediately see anything suspicious. Of course, this doesn't stop Mario from sneaking around the castle as he has this really gut-wrenching feeling that Bowser just has to be up to something.

And this is where the "Kronos Unveiled" scene really starts to come into play.

So similar to the starting scene, Mario finds this big computer in a huge and dark room, so he walks up to it. He sees that he needs a password and after guessing the password (Koopa), he has access to all the secret files of Bowser's Castle. After clicking on the "Royals" option (this would replace the "Supers" option from the movie scene), Mario discovers something really horrific.

A lot of royals have died.

No, a lot of royals have died because Bowser killed them.

The 7 kings from Super Mario Bros 3, Prince Peasley, even Rosalina and the Star Spirits from Paper Mario, Bowser has invaded dozens of lands and murdered those rulers of the said lands in an effort to make his airships more powerful.

But his plan doesn't stop there.

After some research in the computer, Mario discovers that "Operation Koopa" consists of 3 phases.

Phase 1: Bowser absorbs the power of the Super Star (like how Mario and Luigi did at the end of the Mario movie) after he stole it from the Star Spirits.

Phase 2: Bowser travels to the Mushroom Kingdom in the middle of the night with his Doom Ship (this would take place after he signs the peace treaty with Peach).

Phase 3: Bowser uses the Doom Ship (and himself since he absorbed the power of the Super Star) to destroy the Mushroom Kingdom (in an effort to force Peach to either marry him or he'll kill her).

And what's really interesting about this idea is that I have two different approaches on how this all can go.

Idea 1: Everything that I just told you guys is all Bowser's idea. Like this Bowuigi angst idea I brought up in the beginning of this post, from point A to point Z, Bowser is very willing to play the long-con if it means that Peach and/or the MK will finally become his.

OR

Idea 2: Bowser is not the one in control here, but it's actually King Boo who's making Bowser do all of these bad things (and this approach wouldn't be like the Bowuigi Secret Alliance idea I also mentioned at the beginning of this post (although, you can kind of make it like that if you really wanted to). I mean more in the sense that King Boo would full-on possess Bowser in order for him to help him (King Boo) reach his ultimate goal of taking over the entire world.

Personally, I like idea 1 a little bit better, but the pure idea of King Boo being the one who's pulling all of the strings also sounds both really intriguing and really angsty (like no joke, there's this one idea I have in regards to the E. Gadd & Peach scene where Boolossus (or some other important Boo besides King Boo) is possessing E. Gadd throughout that entire scene and Peach never realizes/notices.)

THREE HEADCANONS YOU’VE NEVER TOLD ANYONE: 

Whilst Strikers comes close for being an excuse to hit people, his favorite sport of the bunch is golf. It's a perfect excuse to have some solo time with Junior or Peach.

Bowser is a bit more of an introvert than his volume lets on. This is especially true when delving into his real feelings. He values his alone time.

Despite being proud of Junior, Bowser is going to cling to his throne until he physically cannot.

THREE THINGS YOUR CHARACTER LIKES DOING IN THEIR FREE TIME:

Indulge in creature comforts. Bowser is simple: eat, reap, sleep, repeat. Glutting and putting his feet up are his favorite rest activities.

Monster Handling. He has a special interest in the fiercest fauna and flora. Training/Playing with chomps and piranha plants was his childhood pastime.

Arts. On his own, he'll write in his diary, create music, and even attempt poetry. If asked about it, he'll immediately deny it.

EIGHT SIX PEOPLE YOUR CHARACTER LIKES/LOVES: 

Bowser loves himself truly and absolutely.

Everyone else gets... a sort of altered selfish version of love, but he does care for Princess Peach and Bowser Jr. more than anyone else. Kamek is a father to him.

TWO THINGS YOUR CHARACTER REGRETS:

Not riding a Yoshi before he got too big.

Eating a Giga-Carrot.

TWO PHOBIAS YOUR CHARACTER HAS:

Quick Review- "The Super Mario Bros. Movie" (SPOILERS ALERT)

Anyone who knows me already knows how much of a Mario fan I am. Hell, my family could probably tell you some wild tales about my Super Mario Bros. addiction during my grade school days. But even the announcement in 2018 that Nintendo was going forward with Illumination to make an animated feature length film based on their flagship franchise made me more that a little overly cautious; after all their previous effort (the live action 1993 film) did not exactly do them ay favors either (and while were at it, the TV shows, while memorable, still leave much to be desired). This also is not the first time that the Mario Bros. would be in an animated film (Back in 1986, there was an anime called “The Great Mission To Rescue Princess Peach!”, which never got a US release. Doug Walker actually reviewed it so if you want you can look it up)

Fast forward to now. The movie has now made about $600 million at the time of this review and has yet to be released in Japan. I have a feeling though that after it is released it will make a lot more. And I’m not just saying that because I’ve personally seen this movie twice. That’s something I very rarely do as far as my movie theater habits go  and if I do that its most assuredly a sign the movie in question is worth my time.

“The Super Mario Bros. Movie” serves as an origin story for the two Brooklyn born plumbers, the plot being straightforward and simple much like the mainline Mario games: the two siblings somehow find themselves whisked away into another parallel dimension and get separated, with Luigi ending up in the Dark Lands and Mario landing in the Mushroom Kingdom. Mario enlists the aid of Princess Peach and, along with Toad, sets off to save Luigi from Bowser, the king of the Koopa tribe, who just acquired the Super Star. The group journey to the Jungle to enlist the aid of the Kong Army, led by Cranky Kong and his son, Donkey Kong.

As I mentioned before, the plot is pretty straightforward and to the point: at 92 minutes there is quite a bit going on and it comes at you fast. Not too much time is spent on character development for certain individual members like Luigi and DK. We get a revelation about Peach’s backstory (not being from the Mushroom Kingdom is certainly an eye raising reveal) and hints about the relationship between DK and his dad, but its not really a focus. You get the sense that Nintendo wanted to play it safe with the story, but at the same time you want just a little bit more. Thankfully the story is enjoyable as it is, and has enough humor, action and equally touching moments to sustain itself. A lot has been said about the choices for casting in the film and for me, while the choice of Chris Pratt was very questionable when I first heard about it I was glad I took a wait and see stance to it. He did quite a good job in the role and so did Jack Black as Bowser in all of his evil, kinda hammy. Scene chewing role. Of course, his demeanor changing whenever the subject of Princess Peach being brought up is also VERY notable. I mean dude practically sung a love ballad about her (TWICE) and stole the damn Super Star just to try to impress Peach. I can understand that though, given how she is in the movie. Princess Peach, voiced by Anya-Taylor Joy, serves as Mario’s guide and possible love interest in the movie and instead of being the person who has to be saved for most of the adventure, is the more action oriented and confident character accompanying Mario. If the prospects of Peach jump kicking Bowser, using power ups and generally willing to throw down with a gang of Koopas at a wedding reception seem to be alien to you or out of character, I will assume you have never played Super Mario Bros. 2…

…or Super Mario RPG…

…or Super Paper Mario…

…or any Mario Party games…

…or Mario Strikers…

…or Super Smash Bros…

…or the Mario + Rabbids games.

You’re lucky I didn’t even mention the stuff she did in the Super Mario Adventures manga! Anyway the point is, she is pretty darn awesome in this film. Fred Armisen’s take on Cranky is…well…ok why does he sound like Larry David? I half expected to hear "Frolic" by Luciano Michelini play when he got caught oy the Para Koopas on Rainbow Road.

Visually, the movie is animated very well and does a great job of animating the worlds in great detail, including familiar locations from across the games that you may immediately recognize. There are also TONS of audio and visual easter eggs and references not just from Mario history, but Nintendo history as well. (Quick show of hands, who found the Wave Race reference? The Hidden N64 Controller? Who found Mr. Game and Watch or recognized Disk Kun) The movie happily, and with no shame, throws in all of these nods to Nintendo’s past and I have no issue trying to find them all. Which says a LOT about my attention span. There are 4 different licensed songs used in the movie though but their inclusion doesn’t really detract from the enjoyment. (Ok 5 songs. One of them is directly tied to Chris Pratt and another certain movie series he is involved with.)

The movie is not exactly perfect and that’s ok. I was not expecting a huge scale thought provoking movie that makes me question the motivations of humanity (I’ll save that for whatever DC movie comes out next) I just wanted a fun adventure anyone and everyone can enjoy. And this movie certainly delivers on that.

First Favourite Character

So this is my blog, where I shall ramble about my fav characters. Isn't that fantastic? And I figured I should start with the most famous viddy game franchise of all.

Tetris Super Mario! Mario has a sheer ocean amount of characters, through the platformers, kart racers, party games, RPGs, there's a million bajillion nerds to choose from. So is it the Brothers themselves I love? Princesses? Koopas? Or is it...

WARIO!

The big bad German/Italian/Something Anti-Mario. Super Capatalist Fucker. sigma male. I've loved Wario since day 1. My first Mario game was Super Mario Land 2, the game Wario debuted in (and it came out in Europe the month after I was born, so like, I was a newborn baby with Wario in my life. (the game boy was my parents, not mine originally)). Like, I didn't even know who the fuck Bowser was, or Luigi. When I was a wee bitch, I knew Mario, Wario, and the three fucking pigs who ruined my life in Mario Zone.

We also, at some point, got the first Wario Land game, and I liked the heavier, stronger style of gameplay, and the treasure hunting aspect. The collecting of coins gave the same "yes" feeling as collecting the rings in the Snoic. And the world evolving as you go through the game made it so cool. The tide coming in after finishing world 1, so early levels now are flooded, MT Teapot's lit crashing down and changing some of it's levels layout. And most importantly, Wario with his evil crosseyed grin, a fucking bastard of a man.

And to be honest, for a long while, that was it for me and Wario for a long while, I loved these two games, but I never like, played as him in Mario Kart 64 when we got our Nintendo 64, I was always Yoshi. I had borrowed a copy of Wario Blast from a friend once. And when we played on the playground, like, if we played Mario, which we did shut your mouth, I played Wario and just, "Elbow Bashed" everything (I didnt realise til long later it was a Shoulder Bash actually shut up), and doodled fanart of Wario in "Smash Bros 2"(he was just another Mario clone, but with yellow fireballs instead of red)

Anyhow, years later, I got Wario Land 3 from Woolworths, and that unlocked some shit in my brain because from then on, he was my guy. The cartooney transformations, and the way Wario behaved was like, that was the shit, and then Wario Land 4?! I was in, I am in and in for life! I love this cartooney shit!

Thing is though, again. that was it, I'd now play as him in the Wii games, Strikers, Smash, Kart Wii and Party. But I never played WarioWare until THIS year actually on the GBA Console on Switch. But that doesn't matter. There is SOMETHING about Wario that draws me in, even if I can't afford his own games.

So what do I love? I love an Anti Hero, I love powerhouses, I love selfish agendas (and Wario's love for gold being the drive for all his adventures is selfish AF) and I love hidden hearts of gold, Wario with Shokora shows he isn't entirely selfish, willing to team with others, heck he's got a huge group of friends in Warioware, and even when with the Mario gang, he pals around with Waluigi.

I love that he is allowed to dress up compared to other Mario characters.

He has so many outfits, this isn't even all of them. I love playing as him in Mario 64 DS, I know he's "The Worst" in the game, but punting goombas to hard it takes like 5 seconds for them to land and die is just a silly little fun. I love he is able to punch the fuck out of Tox in Shifting Sand Land.

I love he's a suer arrogant, rude, brash, super like, macho manly man. An Alpha actually, like, man has women throwing themselves at him, and some men too probs. He's a bitch dickhead, but he draws people in, and bitch like, me too.

Also he has the best cast of characters in the Mario series. Mona? Shokora? Syrup? Jimmy T? fuckit the whole warioware crew? Bonko the CLown or whatever his name is? All iconic!

ALSO! SAKURAI. Mate, bud, I love you, listen, Smash is fantastic, Kirby is superb, Kid Icarus Uprising is yum. But my fucking god, Wario is the WORST repped character in Smash. Like Sonic might have a basic spindash only style moveset, which is a bit boring, but whatever. Wario? We got a shoulder bash and his bike, yup, that's it. And a weird amount of farting, calm it down man.

Also give me a Next Level Games made Wario game, it would be so cool. Listen I know Strikers Charged did the fating rubbish too, but Striekrs 3 showed me they got Wario's character down to a T.

So this is my first post, so I'm figuring out the format of my rambles, it might get more organised in the future, but maybe not, maybe people like the way I write. Who knows.

ANYWAY! RUNNERS UP!

PRINCESS DAISY- I will be her.

WALUIGI! Not a meme, he is such a funny, Wacky Races goofy character, Next Level Games puts so much life into his animations in the three Strikers Games, he's a fantastic loser self-pitying dweeb. WAAAA.

[pokerninja2]

Time to break down the king of all Koopas! Bowser is a name everybody knows and fears, and when it comes to Super Mario Spikers, he's as menacing as ever. I don't have a whole ton to say about Bowser, but I'm certainly proud of the design and posing! Lemme tell you, Bowser is one of my hardest characters to draw, and if memory serves it took hours to get him just right. I'm definitely satisfied with the end result though. I think I nailed down his balance of strength and cockiness.

Bowser's shell is based on Giga Bowser's shell from the Smash Bros. series! I thought the unique pointy design would make for a great look here, and since this game is incredibly violent, why shouldn't Bowser take some cues from his fighting game appearance? As for the rest of Bowser's armor, it's based on his hardcore armor in Skylanders. Yeah, remember when he and DK appeared in that? Bet you didn't before I brought it up. Although the knee and arm pads were redesigned to be more like Koopa shells. Makes for a cool design overall!

If there's one thing I do regret, I kind of wish I gave his design a more black and red coloration. A lot of the sidekicks I drew with his emblem on it have black and red-colored outfits, making Bowser himself kind of an outlier. Ah well, at least his armor is black.

Bowser's Fire Roar attack is obviously based on his ability to breathe fire, but more specifically it's based on his captain ability in Mario Strikers Charged. Players running around aimlessly when they catch on fire is also inspired from this game. Koopa Dragon, on the other hand, is kind of just an original move. It's KIND OF based on MegaDragonBowser from Mario + Rabbids since they both have wings, but it's more of an indirect reference. He'd totally have his own design in this game though.

And that's about all I wanted to cover for Bowser. Shorter breakdown this time, but I just didn't have a ton to say. I think Bowser's one of those characters whose flexible enough to work without any specific references and inspirations. A lot of other characters tend to use gear or even weapons, and though Bowser has a few references like Giga Bowser's shell, he's definitely tough enough to hold his own.

[globin--goblin]

Super Paper Mario is SO inconsistent on how alien the different dimensions are meant to be. The character designs are ugly geometric shapes because it's meant to be alien, which, like fair. But so many things are SO not alien. Koopa Striker shells show up in the Flipside arcade despite allegedly coming from Mario's world. Francis' "X-Naut Chronicles" show was made by a writer in Flipside, or Flopside, can't remember. There's an actual Blooper native to the Bitlands. Nintendo consoles appear in a few different dimensions. So do shop chains. But some characters act like interdimensional travel is an extremely rare thing. The Gap of Crag and Sammer Kingdom don't even look like alien dimensions, they look like places Mario could visit in a day's drive from Peach's castle. It's like the developers didn't know if they were making a normal Paper Mario game or an epic Odyssey to places the likes of which were never seen before
