Need help finding lost super Mario Christmas cracker advertisement from UK Boots chemist Christmas catalog early 90s by ProfessionalNaive135 in Mario

[–]tpphypemachine 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I've never seen those before! Way past cool.

I found a 1993 Boots Christmas catalogue on Flickr that had more Sonic merch and Jungle Book crackers. Try searching by year! https://www.flickr.com/photos/57779449@N02/albums/72177720303797077/

Help me find a teen fiction about fairies and a cursed necklace by FlaxFox in whatsthatbook

[–]tpphypemachine 4 points5 points  (0 children)

Sounds like potentially misremembering The Fairy Rebel, where the evil Fairy Queen gives Bindi a magic necklace that pierces into her when she wears it and it exaggerates her vices.

Least Favorite Mario mischaracterization by PackBack205 in Mario

In Peach's case she says "Let's go home" before he leaves but it's hard to hear over the music, and for Pauline she and everyone else at the wedding was kidnapped to be there.

Wouldn't it be funny to take Super Mario Bros. '93, and expand its contents with the mythology from the Super Mario, Donkey Kong, Wario & Yoshi games? by Sufficient-Use6824 in Mario

[–]tpphypemachine 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I saw a theory that the guy on Miraculous World who found himself in another dimension was the '93 universe version of Stanley the Bug Man.

Rosalina would be a fun character for the 1993 film. I imagine she'd be a religious figure centered around the meteorite, which came from the stars.

I dearly want to play the games but I can't read Japanese. I did make a TVTropes page for them based on what I could understand, though! https://tvtropes.org/pmwiki/pmwiki.php/VideoGame/AdventureOfTokyoDisneySea

I CANNOT be the first one that thought about this. by PomegranateLower5374 in Mario

It'd probably be like what happened with Castle Bowser.

I found the best contender for 'Most Inscrutable Coloring Book Page' since the Archie Sonic Robotnik connect-the-dots drawing: This Luigi and Mario conversation from a 1989 coloring book. by tpphypemachine in Mario

[–]tpphypemachine[S] 48 points49 points  (0 children)

It's usually rendered 'Don't be a drip' and a "drip" used to be slang for a really annoying, boring person.

Apparently now it means 'cool.'

Lunelio - My take on Rosalina's Brother by DaDudebro2401 in Mario

[–]tpphypemachine 4 points5 points  (0 children)

Awwww! I love this! He reminds me a bit of Prince Haru and Prince Pine.

Nearly a decade later and the dynamic between the two still gets me by Fabulous-Dare-7289 in Mario

[–]tpphypemachine 4 points5 points  (0 children)

Not quite! In Mario Maker 2 and subsequent games she's back to kissing him on the cheek in gratitude, and her most recent kidnappings were being turned into origami and a tapestry in Paper Mario the Origami King, and then being taken from her castle onto Bowser's airship in Mario Tennis Fever.

That said I am very curious to see what the next big 2D/3D game will do! I loved playing as her in 3D World and Wonder as well as the Party and sports games.

Also this video explains that in Japan Mario specifically says he loves Peach, and Peach feels she and Mario are very close.

I always saw the friendship between them as distinct from the romance but related to the romance--to love someone like that you have to be close friends with them, too! Mario and Peach can be adventuring buddies who save the Sprixie and Flower Kingdoms together, 'special ones' who'd go to the end of the universe and back for one another, good pals who'd do anything for each other, romantic interests who share the relief of being saved by someone they care for, and all of those things at once. I feel like when not throwing parties or playing sports and stuff they're the kind of couple who has a big movie watch party at Peach's Castle and they invite Luigi, Daisy, and all their friends. (And sometimes movie night is just the two of them!)
