Supper Mario Broth @MarioBrothBlog There appears to be a value dissonance regarding draining the energy of cosmic artifacts. When Bowser drains a Grand Star, it is considered nefarious; when New Donk City is powered by draining Power Moons, it is praised. This gives off the impression of a double standard. In the beginning of Super Mario Galaxy, Bowser is seen draining energy from a Grand Star. In Super Mario Odyssey, New Donk City is powered by draining Power Moons. Bowser's "terrible machine" New Donk's "ingenious power source" NEW DONK CITY POWER Grand Star before being drained: Grand Star after being drained: bright, shining dull, lifeless Power Moon before being drained: Power Moon after being drained: bright, shining dull, lifeless Bowser's device is treated as nefarious and evil, with Mario being tasked to break it. New Donk City's device is treated as benign and essential, with Mario being tasked to fix it. While there might be any number of reasons why the former is worse than the latter, the immediate impression this gives off is that draining the energy of cosmic artifacts is "only bad when bad guys do it".

Moar:

Mario vs. Donkey Kong contains an extremely low-quality animation of Mario running. Due to the game's artstyle not being optimized for such low resolution and a lack of color, Mario is nearly unrecognizable.

What happened to Peach's parents?

PIPE PLAZA The Pipe Plaza @ThePipePlaza It appears that Princess Peach's parents have been absent since she was a baby, resulting in her being raised by the Toad staff of Mushroom Castle, such as her attendant Toadsworth, her maid "Granny" and the Toad Minister. Yes, indeed, the princess craves playmates, I'm afraid She's rather tantrumny PARINERS IN TIME Oh! Oh, Princess! Never fear, my dear. Toadsworth is here! Peach's Upbringing Great hoogly boogly! The princess does NOT approve of this! SUPR MARIO RPG SUNSHINE Toadsworth is depicted as Baby Peach's caretaker throughout Mario & Luigi: Partners in Time and remains her concerned attendant in modern-day. Chancellor You can't be serious! You're not thinking of joining them, are you?! This is sheer madness... You're a princess! What will people say?! The Toad Minister may have taught Princess Peach how to behave as a princess and appears to be concerned with her public image. Oh....... I... I am delicate! ... PAPER MARIO I'm behaving like a delicate Princess, just like the Ministers taught me to! I love to be delicate.'0 Granny...thanks for putting up with all my selfish demands. SUPER MARIO RPG Granny is called "Baya" in the Japanese version of Super Mario RPG, a term of endearment for an elderly maid comparable to "nanny". This means she is unlikely to be Peach's literal grandmother, but rather a Toad nanny whom she's quite close to. POW Toadsworth and Granny may have taught Peach some of her magical abilities, with both of them displaying magical abilities of their own. Granny heals Mario's Party during Claymorton's invasion of Mushroom Castle and Toadsworth uses his cane to summon Roulette Blocks in Toad Houses during New Super Mario Bros. SUPER MARIO BROS.

A recurring theme

Supper Mario Broth @MarioBrothBlog A common pattern that emerges during the development of Mario games is developers wanting to give Mario Zelda-related abilities, such as a sword or a horse, and ultimately not doing it. Below are some examples of developers admitting to this or it being found in the code. Riding a horse was considered for Super Mario 64 Iwata: So Young Link was going to show up. Riding Epona is also a distinct characteristic of The Legend of Zelda: Ocarina of Time. How did the idea for a horse come up? Osawa: It just arose all of a sudden. Koizumi: No, I don't think it was sudden. Actually, we'd been talking about a horse even during the development for Super Mario 64. Osawa: Oh, I didn't know that. Koizumi: But it didn't happen for Super Mario 64. Objects that have unused behavior for being cut with a sword found in Super Mario Galaxy data A sword was considered for Super Mario RPG "Initially I was thinking of having Mario use magic attacks and use a sword as well.. we realized that it doesn't make sense you know for a character like Mario to be wielding weapons," Fujioka said. According to Fujioka, Shigeru Miyamoto didn't like the idea but it wasn't actually scrapped until Nintendo and Squaresoft surveyed a number of children at an event on the idea. The survey indicated that the jump-and-throw-fireball approach was more popular, something that Miyamoto was pleased with.

In the prototype version of Superstar Saga, after Luigi heals Mario of Bean Fever, he does not automatically join Mario. Instead, he simply sits on the floor, crying. It is up to Mario to drag the crying Luigi out of the room.
