backtobasics

i think my small caps post was one of the most obviously satirical posts in this thread

i don't think anyone's ACTUALLY a tyrant

[FanofSMBX]

My favorite Mario game is either Super Mario Bros. or Super Mario Bros. 3. Super Mario Bros. has the classic story and it really feels like Mario's on a big long adventure. Super Mario Bros. 3 is great for all the fun new things it brought to the table without breaking the Mario lore, like Boom Booms and Buster Beetles.

I know right? And now you have everyone fainting over Zelda Breath of Fire because of "explore anywhere you see" and "nonlinear story" and "no annoying NPCs". News flash Nintendo revisionist fakers,

1. Who wants to do that anyways, I mean if you saw a cornfield on the side of the road you wouldn't "explore" it! In the Mariopieces, you only go to where there's interesting, fun play. In fact, SMB1 streamlines this for a fluid experience that will have you in tears.

2. MARIO 1 AND 3 LET YOU GET TO THE FINAL BOSS IN 15 MINUTES THIS IS NOTHING NEW

3. You know who's a true hero? Mario. He's mature, he doesn't look like a girl, but most importantly, he has realistic relationships with friendly NPCs. He's willing to save them, but he won't do their chores for a piece of heart; the Toads make it worth his while by giving him presents or playing fun games.

Whew. That felt great. Yeah, I'm sorry to nag on Zelda so much, but it's really sad. The new Nintendo thinks that 1.5 years with no news was a worthwhile wait for this just makes me almost miss Mario World. At least we have #btb bros. to pick up where Nintendo left off.

Let me tell you about this thread.

[super mario galaxy]

Mario Galaxy isn't canon, it's part of a bigger Mario universe but not relevant to the main timeline. I like your spirit, though.

It does have canons in the start

You're thinking of "cannon". "Canon" refers to mutiple ideas (in thid case the Mario games) that share repeated attributes

ATTENTION ALL MARIOHEADS

After all the arguments after John Nintendo confirming that Wario World was canon to the Mario lore, a lot of people have been questioning why the Wario Land games aren't, specially with Wario as a character making a cameo in canonical games such as Mario Kart 64 and Dr. Mario 64. So much drama have been going on about Wario and it really worries me when it comes to the future of Mario games and Mario as a character himself, as we don't want him to be overshadowed by Wario.
I made this poll to see the opinion of my fellow Marioheads in regard to the Wario series. Of course this poll does not make any of the uncanonical Wario games canon such as Wario Land, but knowing John Nintendo he will most likely listen to the Marioheads opinions when it comes to the future games and building the lore of Super Mario.

But what if some fakers came along and maybe just rigged the results a little...

Their opinion still matter, as long as they recognize it as canon or not in the future.

so why is super mario galaxy not part of the mario series main story?

Because Marioheads have a somewhat demented view of the Mario universe and won't accept it as being part of the same series of games

We are only following John Nintendo's perspective.

sorry to burst your bubble but all the mario games don't have continuity so
really it not clear what is canon and what isn't

Actually, I made a timeline to link all the Mario games quite a while back, and I'm still updating it. I see the Mario games as having a continuity to them, beginning with Yoshi's Island, followed by the Marios being sent to Earth and failing to get a job, and then they enter the Mushroom Kingdom. However, it might be a bit more complicated than that, especially considering the ending of SMG, by resetting the universe, throws off the other games on the timeline.

Have this smb3 koopa to return you back to the right place. You can't call yourself super mario if you don't agree to the politic of John Nintendo!

Oh please, so saying stuff like:
They'll use lunalua to corrupt you!
Don't let them corrupt your childhood memories!
and calling us a violent group who intends to destroy, is not acting like we're being
the equivalent of terrorists?g

to link yes i seen it it is very interesting but some games aren't canon like mario party as mario and bowser are friends
that doesn't make sense

tinkerbell you will get reported

[HeroLinik]

That's why I put the Mario Party games at the end of the timeline. According to my timeline, it shows Bowser failing over and over again to the point where he stopped becoming evil after the events of Mario Party 8, and after playing Triangle Twisters in Mario Party DS and having a fun time, he accepted the bros. as friends. This set the ground for the other spinoffs like Mario Kart, Mario Golf and Mario Tennis.

And about Tinkerbell, just ignore her, she's only having a bit of fun.

[super mario galaxy]

yes, i do believe that mario kart is also not linked but we can talk about this in that topic

[HeroLinik]

Go ahead and bump up my timeline topic.

[Mable]

tinkerbell you will get reported

Pls grow up i didn't do any harm or insulted you so why be such a baby and go straight into defensive mode?

Also sure keep destroying mario by saying mario and bowser are friends when they not!! Or would you call someone a friend who keeps kidnapping ur chick and wants you to travel 8 worlds?

I'd say that in order to be a true Mario fan you have to accept every type of level (excluding jokes). All you are allowed to do to assess a level is based on legitimate pros and cons such as cutoff or challenges, but not on type of level and whether or not you like it (except jokes, which then you don't need to praise at all because they aren't allowed here). Therefore you Marioheads kind of are fakers because limiting people in order to call themselves fans is not what Mario is about. You are trying to suck people into your movement by making people feel discouraged to do what they want and stick to the Mario path which the community have been always on for the past 7 years, or whenever it started, and to this day, but now trying to drive it off and send them on a more strict path of doing what was tried before, which is not what SMBX is all about. I think the meaning of SMBX is the same as Minecraft. And your #backtobasics are not being rated down for being #backtobasics levels but for legitimate reasons, or at least I hope. And stop trying to give the #backtobasics levels high ratings just because they support your movement, look and treat them like every other level.

And Miyamoto is not dead, he is actually very much alive. Iwata was the one who died, and it was only last year, not 2013.
Anyway, let's try to end the rantings and flame wars and accept every level posted, classic or not

However, it might be a bit more complicated than that, especially considering the ending of SMG, by resetting the universe, throws off the other games on the timeline.

I'd say that the timeline kind of goes like this: Super Mario World 2: Yoshi's Island/Yoshi's New Island ----> Yoshi's Island DS ----> Mario's Early years (Maybe) ----> Donkey Kong/(arcade/gameboy/game and watch/NES)? ----> Donkey Kong Jr ----> Mario Bros (Arcade/NES/Game and Watch)? ----> ???
SO I think it is already complicated, and seen right at the start and unsure at this point but Super Mario Bros ----> Super Mario Bros the lost levels would probably be a good assumption.
According to the Super Mario Wiki, this is the story of SMW:

source
So in that case: Super Mario Bros 3 ----> Super Mario World ----> Super Mario 64 (N64/DS)
OK SM64 could be come after SMW because if you collect every star, then you probably know that you access a cannon to reach the roof of Peach's castle and meet Yoshi, who remembers Mario and would probably not remember back like 20 years ago when Maro was a baby so the other game where Yoshi apppeared and was more likely to remember would be SMW. Unfortunately, with so many spinoffs and as Linik said, things are complicated. My timeline so far is definitely much different but there are problems like why Baby Mario and Luigi appear with their regular counterparts, and don't forget that the numerous fan games out there might also fit, where we could perhaps say that Super Mario 63 ends the timeline since Bowser is destroyed one and for all. But still, does not mean we have to be limited by this annoying #backtobasics campaign that did not need to be started really.

Also sure keep destroying mario by saying mario and bowser are friends when they not!! Or would you call someone a friend who keeps kidnapping ur chick and wants you to travel 8 worlds?
