You're being too literal there SB. I mean the pipes are probably elevators, as Toad said. I didn't say they all had to be four-man operated.

What about horizontal pipes? I always assumed pipes worked like slides.

SMRPG pipes. Nothing on them, Mario can stand on them, and when you press down, he goes in them. 'Nuff said.

It's just a game.... some of this stuff could be talked about but other things like the pipes just don't have a good explination.

Do you realize what thread you're in? Did you seriously just say, "It's just a game"?

PaperLuigi · « **Reply #1265 on:** June 13, 2007, 05:26:55 AM »

Yeah, I know. Popple said the same thing on the front page.

I'm just saying there's no other explination as to why he floats over the pipe hole. He cannot fly, he's obviously not standing towards the edge and he only goes down if you push down on the controler.

He doesn't float over the pipe in SM64 or SMS.

Yeah, he goes right through; I think SB was talking about Super Mario Bros. or something. I have no better explination other than he can float or spread his legs far apart.

I think the pipes in SMRPG have a strong gust of wind blowing out of them, holding Mario up until he bends Down and presses the small button found on all pipes to turn the wind off. The pipes in SM64 don't have that technology.

Mario is not floating on air. He is simply behind the pipe hole, you just can't see it though.

Adventure_Knight · « **Reply #1270 on:** June 13, 2007, 09:55:01 AM »

I always thought he stretched his legs to stand on the edges.

Lizard Dude · « **Reply #1271 on:** June 13, 2007, 03:13:23 PM »

In SMRPG he clearly stands on the empty space. This has been covered.

SushieBoy · « **Reply #1272 on:** June 13, 2007, 03:23:03 PM »

So does he in the PM games.

What about pipes that are horizontal or start off horizontally? (think exiting some of the bonus rooms in SMB..)

Lizard Dude · « **Reply #1274 on:** June 14, 2007, 01:13:08 AM »

Those have the air too. That's why you have to press really hard against them to go in. If you just coast into the side of one, the air keeps you from accidentally getting sucked in.
