The Bizarre Stories of Mario Party Games
The Mario Party series of course mostly has multiplayer fun to thank for it's popularity and sales numbers, but plenty of titles in the series also feature a decent chunk of single player content. In fact, especially the older titles, has their own stories, complete with original characters. With Super Mario Party Jamboree coming up, I figured why not take a look back at the Mario Party stories of the past, only to find out the plots tend to be...quite something.

Is Mario & Luigi: Brothership a Reboot? | Theory and Analysis
Переглядів 5 тис.14 днів тому
Despite AlphaDream going under, Mario & Luigi are back under the helm of a new developer. But that does beg the question: will Brothership be a reboot? Will we see fan favorites like Fawful or Starlow again or will the new development team craft a Mushroom Kingdom of their own? I take a look at the evidence provided by the Nintendo Direct trailer to try and figure it out! #mario #supermario #ma...

    Even though Mario Party Superstars doesn't have a Story Mode, I like how it references the past stories of Mario Party games as canon to it. Through that book in the bonus section listing the past games. Although I wish it remembered the handheld games... if only so MP DS could get love.

    Lotta the party games (mario party and the mario sports games) have bizarre stories. I mean mario super sluggers’ plot involves peach creating an island Specifically For Baseball and Bowser decides to take it over and thats. Ok. Tennis aces has Luigi get possessed by an evil demon tennis racket. Its like. Can yall not jus have fun? Mario kart doesnt need a story (kidding ofc i LOVE these weird lil stories. Mp8 has a soft spot in my heart bc the star rod comes from paper mario. Mpds is prolly my favorite tho) Also rlly funny theres an entire MP game thats only single player (advanced). Ik ppl r vv negative on that one but like it was on gba i kiiiiinda get why it was a solo campaign

    I think it's like a soft reboot, like it'll be 90% on its own but with a tiny bit of call backs, I personally don't want it to be littered with call backs and returning characters, I think the game should be allowed to stand on its own so all these people talking about Fawful or Antasma coming back kinda bug me (I'm not referring to any specific people btw) Plus think about it, this will be a lot of peoples first Mario & Luigi game so it doesn't make sense to have a load of call backs and returning characters especially in the main story

  • @generalcrab0009
    @generalcrab0009 23 години тому

    I doubt it. You brought up SMB2 USA, which completely destroys your argument as that whole game was actually a dream, and thus, doesn’t actually count. How many times in the main series has she not been kidnapped? 2 times. 3D World and Wonder. That’s 2 games out of like, at least 15, not including Mario Land 1 and 2. She’s the reason Bowser works as an antagonist as well. Just look at 3D World and Wonder. As much as I love them, they have by far the worst plot in their respective sub-series. Bowser in those games makes zero sense. He kidnaps some fairies because he wants to build a theme park? What the hell kind of motive is that? An incredibly stupid one. What about Wonder? He just… actually, what the hell is his motive there? I genuinely can’t remember because it’s so bad. The point is, two spin-offs where she’s the main protagonist, a movie where she isn’t kidnapped and two playable appearances in games that actually happened aren’t enough to say she won’t ever be kidnapped again- she will. They aren’t going to shake up the “status quo” or whatever. That’s basically what Daisy, Rosalina and Pauline are. Each of them has been kidnapped in some way at least once. They don’t need every single female character to be all independent and a girl boss and able to defend themselves. There will definitely be games with her as the main character obviously, but the formula has worked well for almost 40 years, and I doubt they’re going to change it any time soon. And again, Bowser needs some good motives. Not any of this theme park nonsense.

    I think peach got kidnapped so much she had to teach herself to defend herself cause clearly the Toads are more than useless. Personally, i dont mind the damsel in distress. Especially the helpless ones. Men are meant to be there for the women they love especially since men are stronger and all. Peach in particular is a more feminine woman and less of a fighter. Seeing her fight is cool and all but also weird. Daisy seemed more like a fighter. But I do like playing as girls and having Peach as one of them is a good thing. If Nintendo kinda threw in a mix i think it would be fine. I think the main reason the trope died was because it was over done, and it isnt the only one. Zombies as a big thing, space was a big thing, Isekai in anime was a big thing and they all were over used and just died out and you see them spread out every now and then and are done more properly due to it. I think Peach got kidnapped so much because it was just a reusable situation. Now that Mario is moving to a online environment they need more Characters and Peach is just a very well loved woman as a princess should be. In a way, Mario can now move on after Peach was rescued by Mario into new stories. Now, its the flower kingdom but they could take this even further. Its nice helping Peach protect her neighbors. In a way, we are kinda keeping Peach from being kidnapped. We are better than Toads. Peach, get better Guards. They are useless.

    This is definitely a sequel. Like it or not, Paper Jam is the 5th Mario & Luigi game and Brothership is Mario & Luigi 6! Seems to me that Peach and Bowser will be assisting Mario & Luigi as maybe some kind of special that you earn like in Super Mario RPG. How sick would it be if the Super Mario Bros. got 2 extra teammates later on in the game in the form of Wario and Waluigi? I don't know, though. It feels like it's just going to be the Super Mario Bros. in this game. Just like in SS, BIS (Bowser was separate), and DT. PIT saw the Super Mario Bros. teaming with their baby counterparts and PJ saw them teaming up with Paper Mario. My dream Mario & Luigi game would be the Super Mario Bros. teaming up with Wario and Waluigi! Maybe in a future Mario & Luigi game!

  • @DoctorSanity
    @DoctorSanity 7 днів тому

    One thing we're curious about is the ebb and flow of nostalgia versus new, by that we mean we can't help but notice that Mario's most straightforward kidnappings of peach tended to be around the New Super Mario Bros era, or the one where Mario stagnated referencing SMB1-3 heavily. The current Mario era is somewhat similar to the gamecube one in that it's experimenting and trying out a lot of new things. As a result we're not fully sold on the idea Peach won't be kidnapped again. But! We still agree on you for quite a few things. It all depends on how much Nintendo has sort of realized that... they just don't really need Peach to do basically the same plot? The pixies, the flower kingdom, etc, aren't really different from Peach in execution, and all for the better we'd argue. It lets us find out about new characters or locales, iconic as the mushroom kingdom is. Peach just being one of the casual fun characters featured is honestly sort of refreshing. Peach is a hyper femme, dolled up princess who loves to bake and dance and sing, but those elements don't inherently say anything bad about women. Her still getting to be that but just allowed to *join in on the fun* is, well, it's nice!

    They probably noticed the mario series was a bit more boy-sided for a little while during the switch era, and toadette just doesn't have the same appeal of peach for girls. The movie and Showtime were definitely a big push towards making her character a lot more prominent, both in the games and marketing, and I have a feeling they will be experimenting even more with the status quo of the series, after all we got princess Daisy playable in Wonder after them experimenting with her inclusion in Mario Run many years before.

  • @fawfulthegreat64
    @fawfulthegreat64 11 днів тому

    To me Paper Jam ticks way more of the boxes of a reboot than this. Every other Mario & Luigi game is rich with original characters, every sequel calls back to the events of the previous games with returning characters, and then there's Paper Jam. Which is just... a typical 2010s Mario game. Besides Starlow, nothing about Paper Jam's story and characters are Mario & Luigi in the slightest. While Brothership just in this first trailer OOZES with M&L energy. To me, Paper Jam was the reboot, stripping the cast of characters back to just what can be found in the NSMB series and going for a painfully played-straight 2D Mario-tier kidnapping plot. The M&L remakes were the original vision for the series gasping for air, before AlphaDream's debt and the lack of any fandom-side excitement for the remakes (which I will never understand) shoving them back under to drown. And then Brothership finally rising from the ashes and reversing ALL of Paper Jam's insulting sanitization. As far as I'm concerned Brothership is the Mario & Luigi 5 you couldn't put a gun to my head to make me call Paper Jam.

    The Mario & Luigi series got increasingly muddled towards the end. Remakes sanitized the original games' charm a bit, coinciding with the period that brought us Sticker Star during a shift away from traditional RPGs. Around the same time, we even saw a Mario & Luigi crossover with Paper Mario. Given the current RPG renaissance at Nintendo, a soft reboot that brings the series back to its roots makes a lot of sense to me.

    The game looks great and I’m excited for it. The side modes kinda scare me. I think the way to improve Mario party is more and more customization rather than having random side modes . In super Mario party we got 5 mediocre side modes you’d never want to play more than once rather than one great mode with tons of replayability. But since this game is clearly going to have tons of side modes I hope they’re good.
