It's just for the games. The cartoons, movie and Super Mario Adventures comics have nothing to do with it.

Wow, this timeline is pretty mind blowing to me, and it's actually really believable! The only problem I have is that King K. Rool wasn't in DKCR, and if he sent the snowmads in DKC Tropical Freeze, don't you think that they would fight King K. Rool again after fighting the final boss of the game? (forgot his name lol) Also, I think I know how the Super Smash Bros. series can be added. With the pipe linking the real world to Mushroom World being rediscovered, pipes to other worlds are built, and eventually, an intergalactic battle commenced, leading into SSB64, Melee, and SSBWiiU/3DS. Shortly after, their worlds get attacked by an evil being known as Tabuu, so they all agree to team up, leading into SSBB's Subspace Emissary. Also, you left out Mario Superstar Baseball, Mario Sports Mix, DK Jungle Beat, and DK Barrel Blast (AKA DK Jet Race)

Crap. Forgot those. I'll add them in if I can, but I don't know where to put Jungle Beat and Barrel Blast.

I'm going to bump this nearly year-old topic because there appears to be a small amount of controversy in my other topic about the theory in that Mario's the bad guy. My timeline actually factors in well with this theory (although I wrote it up last year) and the two topics actually should be explained best together to clarify stuff that I stated in the other topic that some people don't understand. It also explains some of the events and sub-theories stemming from it, such as the idea Mario got friendzoned by Pauline and didn't break up with her per se.

Feel free to continue the discussion on my view on the official timeline.

Sounds more like a fanfic than a timeline to be honest.

That aside, you might find this useful to improve your timeline.

I thought smw took place right after bowser was banished in smb3.

Yeah, that could be true, and this appears to be backed up by the fact that the Sunken Ghost Ship was stated to be one of the airships in Mario 3. I'm gonna move SMW further down the timeline and see how it handles.

Super Mario Galaxy 2 should come after Super Mario Galaxy, since all the events in Super Mario Galaxy are erased and Super Mario Galaxy 2 comes right at the start of the first game.

Well, I very much doubt that the 80s-90s Mario cartoons are "canon" (whatever that means for a series like this in the first place) considering that they were essentially licensed productions not made by Nintendo.

Also yeah what RudeGuy said is right; Galaxy 2 appears to take place in an alternate timeline that is created when everything is destroyed at the end of the first Galaxy.

It also says that in the super mario world show in mama luigi.

The cartoons aren't canon because just like what Pseudo-dino said, they weren't made by Nintendo. This is also a timeline for the games, not the cartoons.

Wasnt smb2 Mario's dream?

While I can see that inconsistencies could arise from the cartoons, it's not good to not include them because they "weren't made by Nintendo". Nintendo licensed it and, therefore, supported its development. Nintendo isn't really behind 100% of the ideas created for Mario - if we were to stretch this issue further we'd have to disclude the Mario & Luigi games because they were developed by AlphaDream and the Paper Mario games because they were developed by Intelligent Systems. I understand that's a difficult comparison, but it stands nonetheless.

Yeah, I covered that. The idea was that Mario was so tired from all the dancing from the previous game that he decided to take a long much-needed rest. He never woke from it, because he'd been taken to Subcon, thus leading to the events of SMB2.

Also, here's something interesting that I found - in the credits of New Super Mario Bros. Wii, Peach appears to mumble something about meeting Mario on the night of the Star Festival, and this could suggest that it could be a prequel to Super Mario Galaxy, hence its placement in the timeline.

I think Wario Woods could pass between Wario Land I and II. I don't think that Wario could have some "fun", but maybe destroy all the forest to make a new castle to him. Maybe Toad likes the forest, or even Birdo is Toad's friend that live in forest, and asked Toad help to make Wario stop.

And i think that Super Mario 64 come first in timeline, and after Paper Mario, probably because after the princess kidnapping events, Peach needed to remove the "Lava" and other dangers from the castle, and needed to redesign the kingdom. As well, various Toads needed to alive in the castle until the Toad Town was built.

Nope. The reason I put the Yoshi games at the start was because that's when the bros are babies, and Touch & Go is when the stork delivers them to their parents. Yoshi's Island is the sequel when the stork gets captured along with Baby Luigi and so Mario has to rescue him and the stork.
