I was joking somewhere else about dead by daylight guest characters and mentioned King Boo and now I can't get the absurdity out of my head

Like imagine nintendo's first ever cross platform guest content is

King Boo, a character I'd put right on the edge of recognizable and unrecognizable to the masses.
In DEAD BY DAYLIGHT, a violent horror game with blood and body horror
FREAKING KING BOO IN DEAD BY DAYLIGHT!!!!

that would be insane

What would your reaction be, genuinely, genuinely.

A long time ago I was watching like, a group Nintendo Direct reaction where the main guy in it had already screened it for himself in advance and used this to just like, lie about every game having a dumb compromise like microtransactions and stuff. Very strange behavior

Genuinely what is with Disney's obsession with separating characters and having them drift apart and stuff. It's been a core theme of a fair amount of their recent imput and its weird. Sure it's a good message to impart on kids but do they need to impart it like four different times? What's their motivation here?

We're reaching an era where people are looking back at lego dimensions very un-fondly and I'm just someone who owns two copies of the game

Nintendo should reference Diddy Kong Racing in Bananza but imply that it was just Diddy and Krunch racing on an unnamed island with an occasional triceratops

MartianSnake · Friday at 11:57 PM

I feel really bad for the people that pitched a Diddy Kong Racing sequel in 2004, seemingly only barely aware Nintendo had lost the rights to... 95% of the content from the first game

So uhhh

Mario Kart Tour might be getting a new update

MartianSnake · May 21, 2025

Noooo little gamer boy don't assume there's malice every time an element in a game is missing noooo the Mario Kart World devs don't hate Super Circuit noooo why would Nintendo suddenly start caring that Super Circuit wasn't developed in house when they didn't care at all like 2 years ago nooooo don't go into that cave nooooooo

I think it'd be funny if we found out Nickelodeon only bought existing cartoon brands if they had one of their central colors in it (orange and green, like Garfield and Ninja Turtles)

Watched a video on Mario Kart retro tracks and a comment basically said "they should've just remade all the 64 tracks in ds like how they remade all the snes tracks on gba"

And it makes me wonder

What if that WAS the tradition? Just remake a game's whole library in one go. Obviously the prefer the way its done in real life but it's an interesting thought

What track lineups would you pair with what game?

I'm thinking

Wii gets GCN, because those are just easy ports honestly.
7 gets Wii, because playing console tracks on the go would be a big appeal.
And 8 gets DS.

This does leave GBA & 3DS in the dust a bit though, hence why I prefer the real life method. DLC could break the rules and include a hodgepodge from all games though

What do you think?

MartianSnake · May 21, 2025

Wait how the heck would you distinguish Mario and Baby Mario's Kirby Hats

MartianSnake · May 21, 2025

Wiggler is interested because it's like the only major Mario enemy to be portrayed as friendly in 90% of spinoffs, to the point where even in the ones where one does attack you, they feel a need to come up with an excuse as to why they would

How have I only just today found out Luxo Jr is technically a design licensed out to Pixar, because it's based on an actual Luxo brand lamp.

And get this, Pixar isn't allowed to make working Luxo Jr lamps because that'd drive sales away from actual Luxo lamps

BonafideFella & I are co-running a creation thread where we can all create the game this roster belongs to!

If that at all interests you, take a peek!

Smashboards Creates: Super Smash Bros. For The Nintendo Revolution! (making a classic fan roster a "reality")

The year is 2006, the Nintendo Revolution is coming, Nintendo's newest console which promises to revolutionize the gaming world... But what's a killer console, without a killer app? Nintendo knows the kind of pull Smash Bros can make, so they humbly request Masahiro Sakurai create a new entry...

When I was younger I used to REALLY dislike the competitive Smash community for really petty reasons (not using more stages, not using items, not using final smashes) and I've grown since then and understand their reasonings, even if I don't agree completely

But now I REALLY dislike the competitive Mario Kart community for even more petty reasons (STOP CALLING LIGHTNING "SHOCK"!!!! STOP IT!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!)

MartianSnake · May 19, 2025

IF Mario Kart Tour was still going
And IF Mario Kart Tour did crossover content
And IF they did an F-Zero tour

It would've been cool if, instead of porting a mk8 f-zero track to mobile (which is crazy talk)

They ported a SNES f-zero track and called it SNES Mute City or whatever they picked

And generally treated it like a snes/gba mk track remake, that sorta halfway point between a flat track and a modern one. Honestly I'd settle for Mario Circuit 3 levels of flatness maybe, the novelty of seeing a SNES F-Zero track in that style is enough alone for me.

They coulda added like, futuristic looking versions of the smk rainbow blocks too

I mightve said this before but I was really sick the day Kirby Fighters 2 was shadowdropped and I just binged a ton of videos of it for like two whole sick days, absorbed pretty much every little morsel of the game I could.

And now, even all these years later, I can't look at Kirby Fighters 2 at all because it makes me feel sick

MartianSnake · May 17, 2025

Can figure-8 circuit be saved

MartianSnake · May 16, 2025

Donkey Kong is so funny imagine having generational beef with some guy who's barely aged a day since your dad was younger than you

MartianSnake · May 16, 2025

Just found out there's an Alien game thats clearly based on fnaf's gameplay

Add that to the list of licensed games that use weird specific games as a basis for gameplay

MartianSnake · May 16, 2025

YouTube should make interactive YouTube shorts purely so we can turn yt shorts into WarioWare

MartianSnake · May 16, 2025

Pak E. Derm would be a fun mario kart character

MartianSnake · May 16, 2025

What if Mario Kart and Smash Bros swapped souls

Don't ask me what I mean, just sorta guess

MartianSnake · May 16, 2025

One of my favorite lil cute tropes is calling characters like Kermit the Frog and Sonic the Hedgehog "Mr. The Frog" and "Mr. The Hedgehog"

...

Anyways nostalgia critic does it too but it doesn't work

He's the nostalgia critic, not nostalgia the critic. But characters still call him "Mr. The Critic" somewhat often, it feels like he doesn't get the joke.

To quote the critic, NOOO! NOOO!! DOES NOT COMPUTE DOES NOT COMPUTEAHSJDKSKSLF

MartianSnake · May 15, 2025

Soooo

Does anyone wanna co-run that Creates thread idea I had earlier today

MartianSnake · May 15, 2025

How does one... co-run a creates thread with someone else

Is it just giving someone else a turn to make the update posts or is it deeper than that

MartianSnake · May 15, 2025

Just had the greatest idea in the universe

Smashboards Creates thread where we just make the movesets and surrounding content for this iconic roster

I'm being serious

I want this

Who's with me

MartianSnake · May 15, 2025

I do think I'm a bit bummed Mario Kart Tour never did mobile game style collabs

I'm not talking link or animal crossing or anything like that

I'm talking the kinds of crossovers you see in all the other mobile collab stuff

Godzilla
Angry Birds
Hello Kitty

Honestly, just imagine if they went as hard as the Mario Maker collabs went

Shaun the Sheep in Mario Kart would've been awesome

MartianSnake · May 13, 2025

Smashboards Creates threads I think nobody would be interested episode 38:

Smashboards Creates Mario Kart Tour if it... just kept going

MartianSnake · May 11, 2025

Scott the Woz's latest video has convinced me Duck Hunt needs to "come home" in sega smash bros

MartianSnake · May 10, 2025

Sonic would've definitely been the Spokesperson for some healthy eating campaign by now if they hadn't decided to roll with sonic's favorite food being chili dogs

MartianSnake · May 10, 2025

We need a "give me your keys" thread, I just don't know what that entails

MartianSnake · May 9, 2025

Would it be a good idea for a dedicated Mario platform fighter to have a mechanic where you become small on your last bit of health

Like do you think that'd lead to fun opportunities or would it just be annoying?

MartianSnake · May 9, 2025

From my limited knowledge of the subject, "Dandelion" does sound like an anime/manga title doesn't it

MartianSnake · May 3, 2025

Disney+ has like 10 good well-balanced not-too-advertisement-feeling documentaries about themselves and the stuff they make and 100 documentaries with about as much depth as a "top ten places to shop at epcot" vlog

MartianSnake · May 2, 2025

I always felt that the playable Boo in the Mario Tennis games was a woman, she gives real big she/her vibes

I don't feel this way about any other Playable Boo

MartianSnake · May 2, 2025

The Mario Movie is not some step in nintendo's grand design

Games do not foreshadow things in upcoming Mario movies

Movies do not foreshadow things in upcoming Mario games

The DK redesign is not because of the Mario movie

Sarasaland is not gonna be in Mario movie 2 just because there's a few references to Mario Land in MKWorld

MartianSnake · May 1, 2025

I've only seen like 4 episodes of the Simpsons plus the movie but I think I've probably seen triple that runtime in steamed hams alone
