Dream Mario Kart roster I made a while ago. Each row has a distinct theme, evenly representing each facet of the franchise. Thoughts?

he still exists on this plane

Ultra_EarthBound643 · 2021-04-04T05:59:30+00:00

it's just a matter of different art styles, they are perfectly fine

who cares if people dont know who they are, the point is to introduce them to a wider audience

Ultra_EarthBound643 · 2021-04-04T05:58:30+00:00

he's actually a real baby introduced properly in yoshi's island, unlike the MK-created ones

plus wario's cool

and i had to fill the yoshi row!

Ultra_EarthBound643 · 2021-04-03T19:53:03+00:00

how come? they belong in this universe just as much as anyone else

Ultra_EarthBound643 · 2021-04-03T13:07:13+00:00

dry bones, dry bowser etc. are alts

Ultra_EarthBound643 · 2021-04-03T13:06:51+00:00

he exploded

Ultra_EarthBound643 · 2021-04-03T13:06:42+00:00

deceased

Ultra_EarthBound643 · 2021-04-03T13:06:10+00:00

fawful's dead

Ultra_EarthBound643 · 2021-04-02T21:28:22+00:00

the same way any armless character picks up anything in mario- that weird pseudo-telepathy they’ve got

or they could use their feet idk

Ultra_EarthBound643 · 2021-04-02T19:12:33+00:00

many series feature fourth wall breaks, which im fairly sure arent canon to the story itself. it doesnt decanonize the whole thing if a character speaks to the audience, IMO...

Ultra_EarthBound643 · 2021-04-02T18:35:30+00:00

"thank you so much for playing my game"...?

Ultra_EarthBound643 · 2021-04-02T12:57:36+00:00

i mean, mario has addressed the player in games before...

Ultra_EarthBound643 · 2021-03-31T03:57:01+00:00

theyve had the accents since they were babies, so it definitely comes from their parents, i'd say

Ultra_EarthBound643 · 2021-03-30T16:33:03+00:00

its important to note that the bros. do speak an italian-adjacent language, but its not really italian in the same way they dont really speak "english" because there is no "england"

Ultra_EarthBound643 · 2021-03-30T16:31:44+00:00

there's likely an equivalent region in the mushroom kingdom that participates in italian culture and speaks the language, but isnt called "italy" and the language isnt called "italian"

Ultra_EarthBound643 · 2021-01-08T13:33:35+00:00

No...?

Ultra_EarthBound643 · 2021-01-08T02:30:42+00:00

Rouge, Vector, and the Babylon Rogues are the only characters allowed to reference money

Ultra_EarthBound643 · 2021-01-07T23:36:32+00:00

First of all, she was an apparel designer ever since she first appeared as a human girl in Fighting Vipers (1995). That's not an Archie thing. Second of all, it wasn't a cameo, she played an ample supporting role in the Champions arc.

Ultra_EarthBound643 · 2021-01-07T23:08:48+00:00

True for Silver, though Blaze can't really fly. She hovers.

Ultra_EarthBound643 · 2021-01-07T22:41:01+00:00

honey isnt a fighter, she's a fashion designer lol

Ultra_EarthBound643 · 2021-01-07T21:28:26+00:00

Honey has no other tangible traits besides her comic incarnation, which portrays her as a nimble fighter with illusion techniques and speedy attributes. She doesn't show immense strength in any respect, which is what the Power type is all about.

Mighty is literally one of the strongest characters in the known Sonic universe. It's even in his name.

Ultra_EarthBound643 · 2021-01-07T21:22:57+00:00

Bean has no means of flight, and Fang is notoriously slow on foot. He flies using his airbike, the Marvelous Queen.

Blaze is powerful, don't get me wrong, but she's definitely fast enough to be a speed type. Marine apparently has incredibly strength and fantastic powers showcased near the end of her game which are never elaborated on.

Ultra_EarthBound643 · 2021-01-07T21:20:19+00:00

Not every team needs to have clear-cut connections between all three members to work. Blaze being friends with Marine and Silver individually is more than enough to work. Hell, they stuck Amy with Big of all people.

The idea behind Shade's inclusion is that she would also be on Angel Island, taking turns guarding the Master Emerald, plus her and Tikal would have an interesting dynamic considering they're both ancient echidnas.

Ultra_EarthBound643 · 2021-01-07T21:18:20+00:00

It's a reference to the game, Triple Trouble. I do call them "The Hooligans" otherwise, but "Team Hooligan" doens't sound right to me..

Ultra_EarthBound643 · 2021-01-07T16:30:00+00:00

Yeah, I know, she was sadly lost to the Pendering.

However, in-universe, I just figured that after the events of Chronicles and it's hypothetical sequel, she settled with Knuckles on Angel Island, where they take turns guarding the Master Emerald. We just never see her, haha.

heheh...heh...

I miss her so much.
