    The weirdest part of the Toadsworth Erasure is that he is Peach’s Kamek, a sort of hold-down-the-fort type that raised the one they serve, and are thus relatively old. Toadsworth even had supportive magic in New Super Mario Bros. But Kamek is consistently around, likely because of his boss fight potential, though even that is in question considering the lack of recent Kamek fights.

    I’ve had a theory for a good while now that Toadsworth just died of old age, and Toadette is his successor.
    I mean we see Toadette in increasingly high-ranking roles in the Switch-era games.

    He could have easily replaced Generic Green Toad #52 as the purveyor of the massage tent in Brothership. "Bonds" are so integral to the game's plot; his bond with the Princess would be good storytelling. That, and they threw Birdo into the game who is completely useless and only serves as a gotcha moment when looking for Peach.

    It’s a shame that Toadsworth fell by the wayside considering how prevalent he was in the early 2000s. I miss him, and I don’t think his design was the reason he went since he wasn’t that far removed from the standard Toad. Hopefully he’ll pop up again one day, but the odds seem slim.

    A big theory I have for this is death. Miyamoto is STRONGLY opposed to the concept of death in the Mario series; even going as far as referring to falling a course as “losing an extra life”. Toadsworth introduces the possibility that characters can grow old and eventually die. Which is an aspect of the lore I think they’re actively attempting to eliminate in an effort to make the characters seem more timeless.

    My favorite obscure Mario character is Wallop from 3D Land. I just think they’re overall 1000x better designed than the freak they cooked up for 3D World to replace them (Walleye). The jumping when you jump mechanic and the back and forth following is tricky but endearing and the lack of spikes makes them not annoying, while the Walleyes don’t jump and have spikes, which makes them less fun in my opinion.

    I don't think Peach needs to be getting kidnapped in order for Toadsworth to have a place in the modern franchise. His role in Peach's staff is unique (to the point where every time they just use a regular old Red or Blue Toad in that spot it feels like a missed opportunity). Instead of worrying about Peach while she's gone, he could instead be her second in command who carries out leadership while she is off on adventures. I think he could have easily appeared in Odyssey in the Mushroom Kingdom. And who says he can't have a place mainly in RPGs and spinoffs either? Even if I'd love him in more mainline games too, having him back at all would be better than him just staying in retirement forever. No good reason to not add him to the Mario Kart roster. I don't think the way Peach's role has evolved past the need for his traditional role justifies the complete erasure of him from the world.

    To think, the initial reason Toadsworth exists, was so that Nintendo could say Mario Sunshine wasn't a romantic vacation. And I think Nintendo are ashamed of something that's admittedly shallow enough to cut him from the Mario Movie. I personally don't agree, but I can see the logic.

    I think a big piece to this puzzle is how Peach's personality has been changed over these last good few years. She's supposed to be this lighthearted, loving princess, but now she's also has more "independent" and plays more valuable roles in the games. Toad's worth used to be Peach's right hand character, reacting to situations for her more often. But now that Peach isn't as much of a nothing burger anymore, Toadsworth isn't really needed to be that voice of reaction.
    That said bring my man back as a retired old fart or something that's all I ask-

      I think Peach has always been plenty capable, since smb2 even, I think its possible for her to be girly or soft and also have agency and rush into trouble for the good of others. At least in the rpgs she's always been headstrong and a bit naiive and that even shows up in the modern games, like 3d world.

    7:05 She was kidnapped momentarily in The Super Mario Bros. Movie. During the wedding. Surely that counts as kidnapping. But yeah weird to think that they've done such a good job avoiding that formula that it's been that long in a game since she's been kidnapped
    8:11 Mmm... It's hard to think of what the most obscure Mario media is that I've thoroughly consumed, much less a happy medium between that and which one has a great character that I like... Does Honker Stomper count? He's from just a single episode from the Kirby anime, but since Kirby Superstar directly connects the Mario and Kirby universes that would mean that Honker Stomper, who is basically detective nose kirby, would count as a Mario character.

    If you remember he is the News Reporter in Chapter 5 report behind the story about the kidnapping of the Crags and found out the Prince of a Flower people was behind but report the true why, as the wasteful Crags were dumping trash into water and soil causing great harm and helped try and gain peace by exposing the true.

    I don't believe those Sticker Star claims were accurate, and there seems to have been trying to make an excuse for well laziness.
    In addition if there was some grain of truth, it only applied to Paper Mario since was only said by one dev from that team who seems to be the one responsible and not the boogeyman.
    I think him not being in the movie helps separate the 2 continuities.
    Bowser is slightly older than Mario and Luigi, and Peach is around Mario and Luigi's age.
    Mario was around 24-25 years old in Mario Superstar Baseball or Mario DDR, though could have been younger.
    The Baby Peach as all babies in the Mario World are, was delivered by a stork.
    The Green Yoshi from Yoshi's Island was not Mario's guardian. Mario and Luigi were raised by their parents in the Mushroom Kingdom and even went to Kindergarten with Baby Peach. And would eventually move to and live in Big City(early New Donk) before returning to the Mushroom Kingdom during the events of Mario Bros./Did Somebody Call A Plumber+ Super Mario Bros.
    Peach was raised by Toadsworth, and the Toad Ministers(The Chancellor is also called a the Toad Minister and is one of these ministers). in absence of her parents. Similar to how Bowser was raised by Kamek in absence of his parents.
    The Mario Movie's origin for Peach was a creation of the film and separates the movie continuity from the game continuity.
    I believe Toadsworth probably went to live with Lady Lima, but like Pauline could be brought back. Heck Stanley was referenced once.
    Obscure character?
    I'd say Birdo's Sisters.

  • @Ridlay_

    I think the oversimplification of the broader Mario cast is one of the biggest L's Nintendo has taken in recent years, which is saying a lot. Looking back at old Mario games, especially M&L and Paper Mario, they were so full of personality, story, and just genuinely interesting characters. Dream Team is one of the last games that truly put forth an interesting cast and did something interesting with the basic blueprint of the Mario universe, and always stuck out to me because it's the only 3DS game to really have such qualities. I just think, as someone who grew up loving Mario, that a lot of modern Mario is a disappointment. Like Origami King and Brothership are easily the worst games in their respective series by a long shot, which is insane with how they started to fall off in the 3DS/WiiU era. It's like Nintendo has completely lost sight of what made Mario so great. At least we still get games like Mario Odyssey that are amazing, but from a pure character design perspective they went far beyond anything traditionally Mario for all the unique stuff. Another great example is Mario Strikers Battle League. To me that game just screams that they are so scared of even slightly breaking the mold that has been set for Mario, as that game lost most of the personality and gritty theming that made the series amazing. I just hope one day the Mario franchise has a return to form where it doesn't feel like they're scared to do anything with the characters and world...anyways thanks for coming to my TED talk, just had to rant a bit.

      If nobody cared about him this video wouldn't exist. While Toadsworth originated in 2002, 22 years ago, he appeared in 2013, 9 years ago, and even the TTYD remake this year. Also, it's strange to call him "geeky" just because he wears glasses, he wears them because he's old, and he's far from geeky if you learned more about his personality. Give the man some respect!
