The Everything Mario Thread

You have no idea how pissed I am about this...

Mad at Nintendo or mad at PETA or mad about the fur business?

Mad at PETA for daring to target Mario with their stupidity (though I don't exactly approve of the fur business...)

EDIT: This guy makes some good points about this whole thing:

RANTalfloss: Mario in PETA Land

Another EDIT: Mario Kills Tanooki Flash Game by PETA:

PETA Mario Kills Tanooki Flash Game

I really hope Nintendo sues their ass into oblivion!

[Delta]

Yeah, not the first time PETA is pissing everybody off, last week they were complaining about Battlefield 3 and the rat scene in the game.

[sibarraz]

At times I want to believe than PETA is just a parody made by guys who really hate those animal organizations

That's the only logic explanation that I had

But did they make a flash game about it?

That would explain a lot, but not once did I even consider that!

Here's Nintendo's lame-ass response to this whole ordeal:

“Mario often takes the appearance of certain animals and objects in his games. These have included a frog, a penguin, a balloon and even a metallic version of himself. These lighthearted and whimsical transformations give Mario different abilities and make his games fun to play. The different forms that Mario takes make no statement beyond the games themselves.”

Seriously, Nintendo? You could have abused your power to erase those bastards out of existence and no one would have complained about it (if anything, everyone would have wanted you to do that). Instead, you play the nice guy...

Pretty good response imo. All this pc crap has gotten way out of hand.

I'm not sure if Paper Mario counts as an JRPG, but it's good to know that it got you into other RPGs.

Well given the similarities in the different gameplay mechanics,story development etc. I would consider it a JRPG.

Also i'm surprised that no one has mentioned the music from the series as it much like the games themselves have changed quite a bit over the years while still retaining the overall feel that previous games had.

You're right. We should have more music in here.

Even spin-off music counts in here:

Mario Kart 64: Bowser's Castle

Mario as a profile pic is kind of an eyesore... (sorry Mario!)

I blame this song for getting me into Bowser's themes:
