I’m gonna go on a platformer marathon. I’m gonna buy DK64 and Galaxy 2 on Wii U, and Odyssey and NSMBU on switch. And then i’m gonna play all those games as well as the banjo-Kazooie and yooka laylee games in order of release.

M MooMew64 I think you know the most out of all of us regarding this
OK M MooMew64 . For my platformer marathon I want to marathon all the Banjo-Kazooie games, including Grunty's Revenge. But that game has never been re-released in any way so I need to emulate it. My wii already has the homebrew channel installed on it. So I just need a good website to get the rom from without downloading a virus, and a guide to getting it onto my Wii and playable.

I figure I might as well experience all of 3D Mario.

Question: I've heard that it's possible to get more moons in that game then the game can even track. Is that true?
I dunno, I’ve never gotten all the moons. At a certain point it just becomes mindless busywork.

Playing through the story is great fun, playing through the post game is great fun, mashing the A button to get the final moons isn’t really fun.

I'm thinking about starting to marathon certain series of games that take up a big chunk of my backlog. First is probably 2D Metroid, which only consists of Super and Fusion since I've already played the remakes of the first 2.

The best way to enjoy Odyssey is to play it until you get bored, then put it down.

I mean that's true for a lot of games but it feels particularly true for Odyssey. It's designed to have more moons then most players will ever want to find. It's like BotW's korok seeds - you're supposed to stumble into them by exploring and doing whatever you think looks fun or interesting. Shame it's such a pain for completionist though.

only real problem I have with Odyssey is Peach…she knows why

it was the nail in the coffin used to confirm Daisy, Rosalina, Pauline, and Toadette are the better women

Mario Odyssey is my favourite Mario game.

It has awesome music, the levels all look great, has one of the best ending levels in the 3D series and It has Pauline.

Can't ask for more.

But Daisy is Luigi's girl, Toadette is Toad's girl, Rosalina is a god, and Pauline is Mario's Sister (I'm sticking to that headcannon).

Not mine unfortunately, if only I could come up with something that clever.
you’ll think of something clever one day

but he and Pauline dated…that’s pretty ew

and just because Daisy/Rosalina/Toadette are all doing things doesn’t mean they have to date Mario to be the best women (no man can hold Daisy down…and all babies can hold Rosa down…and Toadette is literally edible so cannibalism is a possibility)

80 Stars out of 120. Snowman's Land has not been as BS as some of the other levels before it like Dire Dire Docks, Hazy Maze Cave, Lethal Lava Land, and Shifting Sand Land.... man I hate the basement...

it’s about time we got news! I hope we learn right out the gate if BDSP has anything new. If not I want to see a lot on legends. Seeing new forms or Pokémon there would be cool.

Outside of that, I think we see more Snap DLC, Unite on mobile, and Detective Pikachu 2.

I’d love to see a remake of XD, Colosseum, Rangers Or Sky.

Although a new mystery dungeon or rangers game would be pretty cool.

Nope. Modern DK is the original DK's grandson, so logically modern Mario is the son of Jumpman (gorillas mature to child-producing age faster than humans) and the original Pauline. So logically, if there is a new Pauline in Odyssey, that means she must be a child of the original Pauline (AKA Pauline Jr., have you ever seen a girl with the Jr suffix, even if she was named after her mother?), ipso facto, Mario's Sister.

Oh yeah, was It confirmed if Detective Pikachu on Switch was gonna be a Port or a whole new game?

And yes, I also would love a Pokémon Ranger Remake with motion controls. They could even make a special joycon similar to the Pokeball Plus which looks like the devices the Rangers use.

It was confirmed to be a sequel that takes a different route than the movie.

The game originally ends with Tim saving the parade like the movie and stopping R, getting Mewtwo’s cells back.

However, even though he sees mewtwo and learns it saved his dad and pikachu in the crash; it is not revealed his dad is the pikachu. The game then ends with Tim promising to continue his quest to find his dad.

So the sequel will continue from there but do something else according to Gamefreak.

Oh, that sounds quite cool!

Looking forward to hopefully hearing more news about It then!

No you moron.

After Jumpman died, Pauline started fearing for her own mortality. So she created a homonculus in her image with mushroom-Star magic and transferred her soul into it upon her death in 2003. Why else would she be talking about the events of DK Arcade in Odyssey? In 2014 she ran for Mayor of New Donk, a location in the mushroom dimension that reminded her most of home, and shes been running the place ever since while her sons go on crazy dinosaur turtle adventures. Sometimes she’ll show up for a golf game.

So Mayor Pauline is Mario’s mom, stupid.

Did she have to be there to talk about it happening? I mean it was a historical event. Unless she actually talks about how she personally was there and that would confuse me because of the whole Cranky Kong, DK Jr, DK thing. Like... Pauline not being any older doesn't make any sense otherwise.

No, she specifically mentions how it happened to her and how it affected her emotional state.

And the true answer is we’re running on cartoon logic, there’s no real timeline here, and they just thought it’d be cool to have a DK throwback world. Which it is, to be fair.

I am such a big Pauline fan that I even have her phone number.

I asked her if she could put an answer to the debate and she peacefully told me that I have schizophrenia and needed to take my pills. The Mario series was never real and all this time SEGA was the biggest videogame company in the industry

I mean it is but this along with the whole “somewhere in another dimension” thing before Donkey Kong Adventure in Kingdom Battle is evidence towards the idea that DKC is not cannon too Mario and that makes me sad. Nintendo making it so the most interesting parts of their world just don’t matter. And I really dislike that. The DKC games are good Nintendo! They matter! Come on!

No, they’re canon.

The idea is that DK Island and other associated areas are in our world, in some mysterious archipelago untouched by man where monkeys talk. And whenever DK and friends feel like meeting up with the Mario crew for a kart game or something, they hop into a warp pipe to the mushroom dimension.
