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

Can figure-8 circuit be saved

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 · Friday at 5:33 PM

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

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

MartianSnake · Friday at 4:38 PM

Pak E. Derm would be a fun mario kart character

MartianSnake · Friday at 11:10 AM

What if Mario Kart and Smash Bros swapped souls

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

MartianSnake · Friday at 10:28 AM

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

Soooo

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

MartianSnake · Thursday at 2:13 PM

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 · Thursday at 11:20 AM

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 · Thursday at 2:00 AM

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 · Tuesday at 9:52 PM

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

MartianSnake · Apr 29, 2025

More Mario Kart World roster talk: I know one of the many controversies regarding it is that a lot of the characters lack arms and that breaks their immersion and all that

But

As someone who loves Mario enemies, I feel like all the iconic mainstays should get a chance to be playable, and for most of these strangely shaped armless characters, being in Kart is their only chance.

Say what you will, but it's way easier to suspend your disbelief for cheepcheep in a go-kart than it is for cheepcheep playing golf

MartianSnake · Apr 27, 2025

According to the Mario Wiki, which does count Metal & Gold Mario as seperate characters from eachother, among other things, there are 86 playable characters across the Mario Kart series

That's only 14 to 100.

MartianSnake · Apr 27, 2025

I had a dream Francis from Super Paper Mario was in Mario Kart 7 alongside Honey Queen and I feel like if that was real you'd see a lot of fanart of them together

MartianSnake · Apr 26, 2025

Sega actually died because the name "Dreamcast" was so cool they spontaneously combusted

MartianSnake · Apr 25, 2025

When I was a kid I thought a Hoax was a type of feral hog because I misunderstood what the second world in Angry Birds was referring to

MartianSnake · Apr 25, 2025

Trying to recall old Mario Odyssey false rumors and predictions for nostalgia's sake. I feel like most people remember the Defino rumors, and that people thought his different hats would be powerups before captures were revealed, but there's a really silly one I remember from some prediction video back in the day

Basically, the guy behind the prediction misunderstood some treehouse commentary about how Steam Gardens was in a glass dome, and thought every world would be in a snow globe.

I love that.

MartianSnake · Apr 24, 2025

What if Smash revealed fighters and only had cinematic trailers for them like 3 days after the actual reveal

MartianSnake · Apr 20, 2025

Mario characters I honestly think about a lot

Toadsworth
Wart
Tatanga
Eggplant Man
King Totomesu
Blue Bowser
Stanley
Heavy Smoker
Big Bertha (movie)
Jaxi
The Sea Land King from Mario 3 that looks like Mario
And Rex, the enemy from Mario World, who I think makes a perfect "yoshi rival" design, a great Boshi alternative

MartianSnake · Apr 20, 2025

I have a gift card and it's on discount, should I get nasb2? Already have the first one

MartianSnake · Apr 19, 2025

Mario Kart World's roster problem is that they seemingly decided to put an arbitrary limit on how many random npcs they're adding. If they added as many Stage Hazards/onlookers that could fit in a kart as possible and spun it as a main feature of the game like "Drive virtually anywhere, be virtually anyone!" people might be kinder to it.

It'd look less "they're doing this because of constraints" and more "they're doing this because of the creative vision"

MartianSnake · Apr 18, 2025

Sometimes I look back at Smash 4 speculation and I get really stuck on how people thought of fire emblem before much was known about the game specifically. When Ike was revealed to be returning people were like "well I guess we won't be getting a new fire emblem character, the tradition has always been Marth and a new guy"

Yknow, the tradition that only lasted 2 games.

Anyways, there were also wayyyy more people who just assumed Ike was a clone of Marth. Like, even though Brawl was 6 years ago. Weird stuff.

MartianSnake · Apr 18, 2025

What bothers me about Mario Kart is that they're being very selective about what counts as returning from Tour and what's "new"

Characters and city tracks? Those are returning from tour.

Items and non-city based tracks? Oh those are new, completely new! What's a mario kart tour?

I'm not one of those people who thinks tracks like Ninja Hideaway was designed for 8DX and later put in tour btw, no. I 100% believe every new track in tour were designed for tour first and foremost.

What really gets me is Mario Kart World's marketing is treating the Mega Mushroom, from Wii as a brand new item for some reason.

MartianSnake · Apr 17, 2025

So Sonic Racing Crossworlds looks awesome

MartianSnake · Apr 14, 2025

Guys I just had the craziest idea for a Smashboards Creates thread

What if

NINTENDO

made a platform fighter?

Crazy, right?

MartianSnake · Apr 13, 2025

Yknow, I do wonder what CTR Nitro Fueled would've scrounged up if they had to do another year of live service seasons

MartianSnake · Apr 12, 2025

My next roster will be comparing John Madden to ROB

MartianSnake · Apr 12, 2025

Where are all the vector graphic inspired Indie games
