Title: How does Mario get around?
Post by: Ultima Shadow on January 19, 2005, 01:09:31 AM

At first, you'd think that Mario would just go into a Warp Pipe. But wait! Remember the Koopa Cruiser from M&L? Also, what about the Cape and the Super Leaf? Don't forget Jugem's Cloud, and many that I've probably left out (like FLUDD).

So, how does Mario get from kingdom to kingdom? Why the Koopa Cruiser, and not just the Pipe? There was one right in Stardust Fields, not to mention one right in Beanbean Castle Town.

Also, why doesn't Mario just warp straight to Bowser's Castle? Please reply, I need other people's view on these things!

I think MARIO would rather take the scenic root.  If I were him, I would take all of the paths on the beaten SMB3 levels.  The scenery is realy good in SMA4.  Who knows?  Maybe I'll recreate my backyard to look like it.

For a second, I thought the other thread was an answer for this one: How does Mario get around?  The Mushroom Airplane.

You make a valid, necessary point.

Let's put it this way: if you had two nations or whatever that bordered each other.  Would it be logical to put a pipe between the two that's just as accessible for people like Mario as well as criminals and whatnot?  I know, I know, it's just a game, but it would seem semi-logical, even in a game...  At least I think it would be...

There are no countries in any mario game.  And MARIO is not just a game, at least you dont think so.

A country, loosely defined, is a political state or nation typically having a ruler.  If Princess Peach rules the Mushroom Kingdom (kingdom def. a politically organized territorial unit having a monarchical form of government), then it can be classified as a country.

If you played Mario is Missing!, you learned that Yoshi can run from New York to Rome, Italy, in about 5 seconds. That's all the transportation Mario should need.

Oh, and don't forget the Warps in SMB. The Mushroom Aeroplane is also in M&L-- at the end.
