Is there some sort of difference with the signal, especially being analog on a digital set, that is causing my timing to be off?

Yes.

Do adblockers assume the interview is an ad or does Nintendo do that deliberately like other major websites?

Mario Wiki only knows this because it was revealed in an Iwata Asks interview. (Though for some reason it refuses to load. Anybody have any idea why?)

Wouldn't want her getting mixed up with Peach, would we?

The blogosphere's a bit late to the party. Mario Wiki discovered this back in March.

It's also King Piccolo's title in Dragon Ball.

Mario Chat / Re: Why did Birdo serve Wart?

Actual dogs aren't sapient, so it's hard to really call them "good" or "evil". They just do what they're trained to do.

Birdo on the other hand is very definitely sapient, but it's still not made clear if she was willingly serving Valentina or just trying to kill you because she was bored. I guess the dialog leans more toward the latter, but nobody else in the game ever acknowledges Birdo, so how can you tell?

I assumed Valentina was keeping Birdo's egg in her castle for the express purpose of using her as an evil henchwoman. :p

Then again, Birdo's boss battle, like a lot of things in Mario RPG, happens completely without warning and is never touched on again.

Even then, outside of Mario Tennis and Mario Kart, Birdo spends most of her time being an evil henchwoman. Her being Yoshi's girlfriend was probably never a factor in anything, and they didn't even become a thing until well after both Mario USA and Mario RPG.
