Super Mario General Discussion Thread.

In Bowser's Inside Story. Minions push a statue against Bowser. There's like 14 there but it would still be a solid number divided.

And a Boo being able to hold up multiple stone blocks in MP5 I believe

If we need a dedicated tier upgrade for speed there's been a few supersonic stuff like fodder keeping up with or outpacing the sound waves from the enemies in SPM who literally utilize sound as their attack. There's also plenty cannonball dodges and projectiles like arrows and the like I recall being able to be dodged.

And MFTL+ reactions for the fodder would be supported by Magikoopas blocking star bits in Galaxy as like an actual feat plus the fact they're rarely if ever blitzed and keep up in practically all their appearances.

Boo (Mario)
 
Does anyone here have "Super Mario Manga Mania" aka the only officially translated part of super Mario-kun
 
I don’t really know then perhaps it is because a lack of proof that they are recovering from just the soul I guess some smoke appears when you defeat them in 64 but I think that is more because the ground pound

It has to be something impressive. Souls getting destroyed and then just saying they can come back while they're a literal consciousness is like textbook godly regen shit.

Starting at 4:35, Mario ground pounds a boo and the smoke appears AFTER the boo had been hit away by the ground pound. They come back only to say “Ghosts Can’t Die” (Every single boo ground pounded by Mario says this) and tbh I interpret it as Mario ground pounds being enough to kill them and them being able to come back via regen like Fox said.

Even if you don’t think it’s regen I think it’s grounds for something.
 
Also haven’t kept up with Mario’s status on this cite (or have been focusing on Mario related stuff for a while)

But Mario has a TON of unchecked abilities in the M and L games. Mainly probability manip and more examples of time manip, transmutation, statistics amplification, resurrection, and a lot more via gear, badges, and battle cards. Which may not seem that impressive due to Mario already having a bunch of these abilities but the badges, gear, and battle cards are way more effective than a regular power up. iirc, there’s a badge and card that will automatically heal/resurrect one of the bros if they happen to get low on health or die.

I mean, if Ringo can travel through space-time thanks to an experiment of Risukuma's at the end of Puyo Puyo!! 20th Anniversary, thus granting her immeasurable speed, then this seems like a valid enough explanation to me for saying Boos can regenerate.
 
I almost done with Hammer Bro's profile, I can't post it yet because I have to wait and see if the LS and speed changes go through. I'll probably be making a Blooper or Spiny profile next, I can't decide at the moment.
 
What's stopping him from having a page, then?
Lack of documentation?
Lack of scans?
Uncertainty in identifying abilities?

I mean the fact only a grab bag of his source material has an official English translation might be part of the reason.

Wait really? I thought there was an official translation for most of it. Well yeah I guess that is a pretty big obstacle to deal with in regards to making a page for Super Mario Kun.
 
Ok, since I see someone is trying to update profiles, would it really hurt to add Giant Bowser as a notable transformation? I know its visually boring, but it is by far most common form he uses so it not being categorized has been weird.
 
I plan on adding a "higher in giant form" tier for his base in my rework for his profile but that's about all you can really do for Giant Bowser since outside of being bigger and stronger (And even how much his size and strength increases varies quite often) there's not a whole lot to say about him.
 
Giant Bowser seems like it should have an image and its own tab in Powers & Abilities.

In fact current P&A's has a special version that is only based on Bowser's Fury Giant Bowser? Maybe Giant Bowser can keep a general P&A's tab?

No he doesn't have anything unique to the giant Bowser form
 
Yeah don't see much of a point in him having his own image and his own tab in the P&A section, it's literally just "Bowser but very big". Only time his giant form gets unique abilities is when he achieves via items like the Grand Star or when he got gooped up and turned into Fury Bowser. His giant form is not a Super Saiyan transformation with an insane amp to all his stats, it ain't like Sonic transforming into Super Sonic or something like that, it's just him getting bigger.

There still are profiles that have P&A tabs that have only "All previous abilities" and nothing else. For the sake of actually having Bowser's most common transformation being profiled, I dont think it would harm the profile.

Unless ofc there is a new trend to avoid these.

Yeah and those profiles are silly, if a new form doesn't add (Or remove) any new abilities then they don't need to take up space in the P&A section. As an example, Ghirahim has 3 different forms but only one section for his P&A section since the only difference in those forms are his strength and durability. Not really a whole lot can be done for Giant Bowser beyond slapping a "higher in giant form" onto his base form.
 
Yeah there would basically be just a split to Large Size and not much else.

Technically maybe resistance to black holes, since is that MP6 feat still used here? Might be forgetting other black hole feats for base cast.
