Well, I thought she was pretty good looking in Donkey Kong '94 (not in the original Arcade version, where she was known merely as "Lady" and had that Olive Oyl look in the game). Sadly, most people are more familiar with the original DK than DK94 (which is why Nintendo needs to finish DK+ as soon as possible).

I personally liked Pauline myself. She was Mario's girlfriend long before Peach and I personally find her much better looking than Peach (maybe it's the torn-up mini-dress). I liked how they made her into a brunette in DK94 to distinguish her from Peach. It's a shame she hasn't made an appearance since then (it would be nice if Nintendo actually gets to release DK Plus someday).

Also, Foreman Spike needs to come back as well. He would make a much better Luigi rival than friggin' Waluigi (who the heck in Camelot smoked up with that idea).

"so don't call me Mr. Know-it-all for no reason!"
Whatever, you're cool.

Apparently, the Super Mario Anime wasn't even released on video, thus increasing it's rarity to 500%.

"If im not mistaken a lot of Mario Comic Strips were made..."

Yes, Mr. Know-it-all. There are yon-koma books in Japan for just about every videogame.

Yes, I already knew about the Super Mario Manga series. There are actually several Japanese comics based on Super Mario Bros. (and other videogames). In fact I've found a Japanese website dedicated to official Mario manga called the Mario Comic Library.

http://maclib.hoops.ne.jp/

The two longest-running manga series based on Mario were Yukio Sawada's Super Mario-Kun series (published by Shogakukan) and Kazzuki Motoyama's various Super Mario books (published by Kodansha Comics).

BTW, they're not called anime comics, they're called manga (or just plain Japanese comics). The term "Anime Comics" is only used when reffering to a comic that uses cels from an anime.

Mario was an enemy. In Donkey Kong Jr.

I though Peach was always blonde, that's how she was drawn in all the official artwork by Nintendo, even in the Japanese SMB2.

And you call yourselves Mario-fans. Miyamoto did not make Super Mario Land. It was developed by Nintendo R&D1 (Gumpei's team), Miyamoto's team was R&D4.

Heh! I'm a former NP subscriber. My first issue was the one with Batman on the cover, which had guides for Double Dragon II and River City Ransom. The magazine used to be published by Tokuma Shoten and had a weird, but cool Japanese-feel to them. They used to published a comic strip called Howard & Nester (which then became Nester Adventures), as well as comics based on Super Mario World, A Link to Past, Star Fox and Super Metroid. I remember they had an article on Famicom games such as Dragon Quest V, Fire Emblem (one of my favorites), Final Fantasy V and some Dragonball Z game (yuck!). They kinda became crap after the N64, although they're getting better, the mag will never be as good as it was then.

The comic and cartoon series are non-canon. I believe they should stay seperate from the games. It might had Nintendo's seal of approval, but so did Captain N.

Or maybe they're just characters that Nintendo created just because people were tired of fighting King Koopa at the end of every level. I actually heard somewhere that the Koopalings were actually regular kids that became evil due to Koopa's evil spell. Sorta like Ganondorf

I guess you're right. These people probably don't even know that Nintendo actually has more than one development team such as Nintendo EAD, NST, Intelligent Systems and HAL. They simply think that Nintendo only has one big development team behind everything.

I haven't gotten the chance yet to play ir, but I probably will anyway since it was made by Intelligent System, my favorite Nintendo-development team. They made Fire Emblem, Battle Clash, Panel De Pon (aka Tetris Attack or Pokemon Puzzle League), the Wars series and they pratically created Metroid (IS was a team formed by former members of Nintendo R&D1, Gumpei's team).

Mario Chat / Re: Ultimate Battle!Mario,Sonic,and Crash!!

« on: December 22, 2001, 09:07:42 AM »

Mario Maniac: I said it before and I say it again, Crash was made by Naughty Dog, not Sony. And the character is owned by Universal, which why he had a game for the GBA.

Saying that there is no good games for the PSX is absurd. Had you ever played Metal Gear Solid, MegaMan Legends, Ape Escape, Tomba, Hot Shots Golf, Klonoa, Devil May Cry, Blaster Master or even Dragon Warrior VII. If you haven't, you can stop dissing Sony.
