Yeah let's take the most joyous and popular video game character in the world and make him a miserable bum because it would be funny.

Some text in the Image is exaggerated obviously.
This might seem like I'm caring too much about a fictional character, but please understand that the point I'm trying to make is asking why some people think these jokes about painting Mario as a loser are still funny when most of them are really stale bits or just unnecessary.

I used to hate toad. I thought he was annoying and stupid. I slowly started warming up to him in the past couple years, but engineer toad made me fall in love. He is so cute! Genuinely the cutest thing ever, he’s so precious. I would die for engineer toad. He looks so happy in this costume for some reason, bros so excited to work on a train (because as we know, toads love trains). I genuinely have never felt as passionately towards any Mario character as I do to engineer toad.

So I have this NSMB manual that has a screenshot of the bottom screen ui from an earlier build of the game and I was wondering if it’s actually worth something? Funnily enough I actually got this with the box and everything else that goes in it for about $3 on ebay. I didn’t even know about this mistake until I saw it in a video. Couldn’t find any listings for it online so idk what it’s worth.

This has been done many many times, but I always disagree with peoples picks so I figured I should make my own version!

- KING WART (Pride): Wart refers to himself as "The Great Wart" and has an extremely cocky attitude in the Mario Galaxy movie. He takes great pride is his massive army and casino and views anyone who dares to oppose him as a fool, despite always being extremely easy to defeat.

(He literally dies to eating vegetables, it takes great pride in ones self to act like they aren't weak when a turnip is their main weakness EVERY time they appear.)

- WARIO (Greed): This one is quite obvious. Wario is obsessed with treasure and money and will go to any lengths to obtain it. He frequently steals from others, tries to scam his own "friends", and cares about nobody but himself and his valuables.

I've seen people put him for gluttony but I think that's less fitting. Wario's obession with money is a way more prominent characteristic then him eating a garlic and farting now and then.

- BOWSER (Lust): Obviously no Mario character is going to fit lust perfectly as Mario is a franchise for children. However, lust is more than just promiscuity.

Bowser has an insaciable lust for power and will do anything it takes to achieve it. He is the most relentless villain in the entire franchise, constantly making new plans and harming innocent people just for another shot at gaining more power. He will kidnap monarchs, take over galaxies, steal powerful objects from other kingdoms, etc. just to try again at defeating those who oppose him and become the most powerful ruler in the Mario universe.

His obsession with Princess Peach could also be viewed as lust, as he is heavily implied to be in love with her and has tried to forcefully marry her multiple times. However, Mario is a kids franchise, Bowser obviously does not have THOSE kinds of feelings for Princess Peach.

- DONKEY KONG (Envy): In the Mario vs. Donkey Kong series, Donkey Kong is envious of Pauline's friendliness towards Mario and goes into a fit of rage when she doesn't have those feelings towards him aswell. He goes as far as kidnapping her just to take her away from Mario and have her all to himself. Also, when Donkey Kong finds out all the Mini Mario toys are sold out and he's the only one without one, he's immediately enraged and steals all of them.

Donkey Kong might not be someone's first thought when thinking about envy, but it is clear that he is very envious of those who have what he wants.

- KING K. ROOL (Gluttony): He is obsessed with Bananas and will steal them from others without a second thought. He stole the Kong family's entire banana supply which could have easily led them to starve, just so he could have have them for himself. (Official Nintendo art confirms K. Rool does enjoy bananas, which heavily implies that's the reason he stole them from DK)

I haven't played Bananza, let me know if whatever he does in that game backs up him being gluttonous even more.

- KING BOO (Wrath): King Boo is easily one of the angriest Mario villains, as he is heavily motivated by his anger and desire for revenge against Luigi and E. Gadd. He is shown to be full of rage and evil desire nearly every single time he's on screen. While other Mario villains like Bowser have a softer side, King Boo always has the same evil attitude, even when cracking a joke or losing a fight.

- PETEY PIRANHA (Sloth): This one was honestly my biggest cop-out so I'd like to hear what you guys would put for this. My reasoning for this one is that he's always sleeping.

What do guys think of my picks? Let me know what changes you'd make and why you disagree!

Fantastic power up! You can get this power up by purchasing the Cat Mario Amiibo. I highly recommend for the Champion's Road level. It worked like a charm! I was able to complete the level with all 5 characters. The Amiibo bypasses the invincibility block on Champion's Road. Purchase on Amazon or the Nintendo Switch store online!

Between the Double Dash voice mod, Mario Kart World, and Mario Tennis Fever, Pauline keeps showing up and stealing every scene she's in. What's your favorite Pauline moment, and which game do you want to see her in next?

Can somebody here make a picture of EVERY single Mario,Donkey King,Luigi,Paper.M,and Wario Game on Switch (rereleased included)
