Uh, idk, probably? Is there like any reason they shouldn't be?
I ask cause im looking at this (2:13 on mobile lol) and i ask if such would be ok to include in a crt and the spaces make me wonder if its just a game mechanic thing or restrictive to just applicable for the party boards

If you're talking about Yoshi copying items, it should be a valid ability since nothing really implies he can't do it normally outside of the party boards.
 
That direct could've been an email tbh.

Game still looks great, the open world looks fun and I'm digging the new gameplay features like the jump, but uh yeah still not seeing what big man doug meant when he said the game will be worth it's price.
 
So the entire cast can rewind time without a powerup?
I guess that seems to be the case, ofc with the limitation of the rewind being limited to only themselves. Not as potent as normal time rewinds but could be useful to back themselves up out of bad situations.

Putting aside the funny power scaling implications of the rewind, I'm kinda mixed on it. For stuff like practicing for time trials or just practicing shortcuts in general it's great, but it makes any mistakes you make too forgivable, go flying off the edge of the track well just rewind. And yeah sure it does set you back since the other racers are still going but unless there's a drawback they haven't shown yet (Which I'm hoping there is) then it still seems more effective then just taking the hit and you won't go back as many places as you would if you just let things ride out after whatever happens to slow you down.

I at least hope that the options they have for customising the races includes being able to turn it off like how grand prix mode can have the intermission races turned off to have the standard format.
 
So, Mario Kart World also means their vehicular mastery gets even more absurd, being able to do things like drive on as well as do vehicle flips off of power lines/slack cords, in a vehicle.

I wonder what the hidden panels do? Hopefully they're not just collectables. Likewise, hopefully the P Switches are more than just coins.

Also, is it me, or do the Mario Kart cast now have some super janky Adaptability/Transformation, since when they eat specific kinds of foods while in a vehicle, they get new outfits?

I don't think it's any kind of ability, it's just a goofy way of unlocking costumes (Plus those food items glow so like I doubt if Mario ate a normal plate of pasta while in his kart he'd gain biker clothes).

Actually I've completely come around to thinking the rewind is a great feature purely because my friend pointed out how funny it'd be if someone accidentally hit the rewind button when they're in first place and put themselves back into 9th place
 
Really, really hope nintendo consolidates the costumes so its not multiple slots. Super unnecessary and navigating the costumes you want looks horrifically tedious.
 
For real tho they already had seperate menus with the multiple colour choices for Yoshi, Birdo, and Shy Guy in MK8, no idea why they're making them their own dedicated slots in the normal character select for MKW
 


The map displayed when obtaining a fossil map shows The Northern Kremisphere, from Donkey Kong Country 3.

It pains me that this is probably just Nintendo doing a cheeky reference.

Thoughts, all?

Half of me thinks it's just a cute nod, the half of me is taking this alongside Cranky Kong's dialouge and some of the crocodile-like imagry as proof King K. Rool is back
 
Mario Kart World should cost tens of thousands, I should have to give my entire annual salary to Doug Bowser himself and promise him my first born to own Mario Kart
Lots of game companies have it such that when you purchase a video game, be it a cartridge, disc, or online shop software, you are purchasing a license to use/run it, IIRC.

Ergo, if I'm not mistaken, what you're joking about -Or worse!- may be the actual reality, because when you purchase a video game, often, you technically DON'T own it!

So yeah, they indeed probably would want you to have to pay many, many times the shelf price of a game to truly "own" it.
 
Why are we just IGNORING Reclusa LMAO
Like he has the potential to bring 2-A back to Mario at this point
And we're unironically ignoring the fact that he's the first foe to knock Mario and Luigi's hammers out of their hands
Dreamy Bowser couldn't do this despite being powered by 100,000 universes --- Is Reclusa stronger than that? We shouldn't just write him off
And yes he makes dreams, effectively setting him as bare minimum a stronger Antasma
 
What are the odds of millennium star being calc'd and applicable to scale to here?
Bumping this as well

i think 2-A Base Mario is a massive outlier, i want it. Truly, but there needs to be proof that the bros and reclusa are amped by something. And that all of the verse was threatened. But if you got more input to what you are sharing, by all means.
 
thinking about it, the millennium star probably is not gonna give mario verse a big speed buff as the whole feat seems accidental or non intentional. Would be nice either way to have be calc'd!

His ram attack is certainly of interest.

First off, the Mario and Luigi series takes its in-battle occurrences quite literally, so we have no reason to assume it's "just game mechanics" when characters stop time to teach the bros something, battle cards being mentioned and called out as exclusive to the player, and the A and B buttons being mentioned often. This is at the very least a fourth wall break, but moreso implies the lack of "game mechanics" really being a thing due to the game's cartoony nature --- everything is just as real or fake as everything else.

Reclusa has been stated multiple times to have genocided entire worlds, which as established, usually represent universes in the context of Mario. Mario and Luigi are stated to have downright been the only ones who could've stopped him, being a PLOT POINT. Universes in Mario are no strangers to powerful guardian beings residing in each, who would each be able to fight off just about any foe that threatens their realm (beings like Eldstar, Zeekeeper, Rosalina, Great Conductor, etc.). Keep in mind these beings, bare minimum each, have shown AT LEAST low multiversal strength, and would surely not let ALL of their citizens die SLOWLY. As such, he at least once either successfully evaded or defeated a guardian of this power in order to succeed. His attack potential being able to disarm the bros. Implies a level of strength beyond the dream stone, which contains, as known, the power of roughly 100,000 universes. His ability to not only modify, but CREATE dream worlds further solidifies this, taking into account the general population of each universe. For EACH AND EVERY LIVING BEING THERE, he instantaneously creates a CUSTOMIZED DIMENSION FOR THEM THAT HE CAN EITHER MODIFY OR DESTROY. Let's take an estimate of some populations. Now, we'll throw out some estimates of his potential scope.

Kingdom (smallest possible)
The mushroom kingdom has a population of at least...

"Whoever catches them will earn 98,303,150 coins!"

"I hear it's a coin in memory of each defeated minion - a nice gesture!"

98 million, according to the Koopa Troop.
Yeah. That's this guy's baseline scope.

Country (Lowest shown, being Concordia)
Well, if our kingdom population is that big, we can simply add that to average country population from our world for a minimum estimate...

40.69 million + 98 million
138 million.

Planet

8 billion.

Universe (max potential)
I honestly have no clue please help me out with this one guys

So, he can instantly create 98 million to 8 billion universes in the form of dream worlds, which are shown to be very real in the Marioverse.

He can do this in less than a minute, and the great conductor OUTRIGHT STATES he can only be defeated by a powerful bond, and claims that he searched entire DIMENSIONS, yet the only bond strong enough to have a chance was the brothers. Bond power could be derived from the pure hearts in concept of how they work. This gives Reclusa Super Dimentio-esque immortality from base form alone.


Thoughts so far?

Mildly interesting stuff here.

One surprising discovery is that unlike the lightning attacks from Jr. Troopa & Bowser, Huff N. Puff's Electricity ignores Water Block's Damage Reduction.

Also, the Ruff Puffs (The common enemy in Flower Fields.)

I guess he has a better electric affinity by specializing in it or something?

Low multi for those 4 are a highball, I assume you are talking about scaling to Peach's castle which would be a 2-C Construct? Given the painting worlds encompass reality or whatever.
, he instantaneously creates a CUSTOMIZED DIMENSION FOR THEM THAT HE CAN EITHER MODIFY OR DESTROY.
Reclusa correct?


Also what you said doesnt really show 2-A just 2-B. Unless I missed 2-A

You might wanna make sure that's accepted but sometimes and i'll tell you, Maybe? Also do u have scans of what you said?

While we're here, by the way, The first statement's purpose is to imply that Reclusa is, in a literal sense, far more expansive on a dimensional scale than the Dream Stone. Along with how many universes he can impact, based on the populations of worlds he has destroyed!

The powerful beings are strong in the sense of governing over something of greater power, think Matter Splatter galaxy for Rosalina, which she was able to recreate with the help of the Lumas, or the Dream Stone for the Zeekeeper.
 
Just a quick one, we do use the Mario Kart GP titles here right? Wanted to double check before adding those items into the optional equipment for my Bowser rework.
