Hey, I know it's fun to be a d**k and all, but I read pretty much everything on this site before I became a member (especially the Japanese-to-English ones)--I just didn't think of going back to an article I hadn't looked at in over a year to answer some question about leaves I made after Christmas dinner.

There's no need to get defensive. Throwing asterisks in my general direction (or Chupperson's) does not intimidate, insult or infuriate me. It was just a detail that I'd imagine one would remember when considering leaves and Mario. Didn't mean for anyone to decide to pick a fight or something. Calm down.

Hey man, it's generally true. How am I supposed to know that you actually do read things on the site when 90% of forum-goers don't?

I say that the frog suit is the most weirdest power up. That things kinda freaky.

Yeah, didn't it make its first appearance in LoZ: OoT as a mask in the Happy Mask Shop?

Well, Mario did have bunny ears at one point: in SML2:6GC

Did you even read the thread?

Yeah, why'd you think I brought it up in the first place?

"Yeah, you don't really see Mario with a pancake on his head anymore..."

Yes, but my point was Bunny Mario is still here in spirit.

Yeah, you don't really see Bunny Mario anymore... I guess SML2 wasn't popular enough to warrant that (that, and Nintendo is always coming up with new flight suits. Raccoon, bunny, cape, bee...).

That's always kind of annoyed me. You'd think they'd come up with one flying power and stick with it.

Oddly enough, my friend swore he once played a stand-up arcade version of "World" where there was raccoon power instead of cape. But, he had a tendency to make stuff up.

Why would they come up with one flying power and stick with it? They all work differently.

It would be like removing helicopters from the world because we have airplanes. How silly would that be?! I think there should be many ways that Mario can traverse the sky, the coolest of which, is, without a doubt, Raccoon Mario.

Throwing asterisks in my general direction

In reality I guess you could throw some asterisks in someones direction. They look almost like ninja throwing stars. Suspiciously like ninja throwing stars. Almost as if ninjas made them...

*Go's off to do some research about asterisks and ninjas*

My reasoning was that they invented mushrooms, and kept them for many games. Same with flowers. So I would have thought that when they invented leaves/racoon power they would have kept it for subsequent games, too.

While the Super Mushroom and Fire Flower have remained unchanged, their function alters a bit in some games. i.e The mega effect cause by a Super Mushroom in SM64DS and time Fire Flower in SMG. The flight power ups, though, almost never function in the same manner.
