I love to think that both Mario and Sonic love each others games but can’t express it to the public because of the corporation rivalry. Behind the scenes they just geek out together- I love them!
Putting Mario in his SMB1 outfit was a stroke of genius! A fantastic way to make this animation stand out from other Mario animations. Also, him being a Sonic 3 fan is actually the most in-character I’ve ever seen for him. An almost literal interpretation of the phrase “game recognises game”.
It feels so taboo to have Mario's favorite game be Sonic 3 & Knuckles, but at the same time, he definitely seems like the kind of person who would be willing to give any game a shot.
One of the most surprisingly wholesome videos of Max. Mario acknowledges Sonic as his rival but he still acknwoledges and appreciates his rival's efforts and talks him up. They're not just rivals, they're bros.
This feels surprisingly legit. Mario has kind of always had that universal nice guy vibe going, so it kinda tracks that he'd be super into other consoles and games. Like "wow check out the fun stuff everyone is making", earnestly enjoying what even his rivals are making.
Mario is like Superman. Both characters are just kind and happy but people are SO determined to pick through every source to determine they have a secret dark side.
This is in character for Mario, he's all about friendliness and fair sportsmanship. Plus Miyamoto personally liked the Sonic games which I'll take as Mario probably would too.
I love the idea that Mario appreciates and respects having competition in the video game market, especially if its the same game genre. Honestly given how often he collabs with Sonic now compared to the 90s I'm convinced its "canon"
Your interpretation gives me strong goku energy. I am now picturing mario letting Vegeta live just so his new game drop would provide a harder challenge.
except for misunderstanding some people as bad guys, since a lot of times you can see the quote on quote... "enemies" of the Mario universe, and yet they seem like some nice guys that Bowser just hired, and Mario just doesn't care and just kills everyone on his path if that means he gets to kick Bowser's buttcheeks and get to Peach.
@@Nerx3239Hired help by a nemesis is still an opposing force. Said opposing force is also usually armed and hostile. The enemies of the Mario universe are cute, not harmless. Don’t treat a soldier as an evil person for suppressing their opposition.
Mario is such a gentleman, hyping up the genuinely interesting, but ultimately failed efforts of his rival. He knows he's successful, and he's probably going to be for a long time still, and from that position of strength he reaches down to his rival to try and pull them up to stand beside him. What a mad lad.
seeing an animation of Mario actually praising and complementing something related to Sonic and SEGA as a whole is actually refreshing considering the amount of animations there are of Mario doing the complete opposite Mario is an easy-going and laid back guy that makes friends with his rivals, not someone that still holds a grudge against someone for a long time
It’s been what? 20+ plus years and so, both mascots have matured for a good while, it’s kinda nice to see them both collab and just be pals after the petty rivalry that dominated the 1990’s
I honestly like the idea of Mario and Sonic playing each other’s games. Mario loves Sonic games because they’re speedy and exhilarating compared to his usual adventures, and Sonic loves Mario games because he likes a little good clean fun at a slower pace during downtime (although he would probably like speedrunning them because of course he would).
For the once the fact that Mario actually is happy and fully enjoying something from Sonic, even saying that Sega is better than Nintendo is what I call a best friend.
That last part where Mario says "Genesis does what Nintendon't" feels in this context as a compliment to Sega for trying to do things that Nintendo wouldn't. It's really amazing.
@@ivoneo2806 racist mario, LUIGIS DAY OUT- you know what instead of giving you a huge list i'll just say I KNOW ITS NOT LITERALLY EVERY MARIO ANIMATION, IT'S JUST A LARGE LARGE MAJORITY OF THEM BUT YOU HAVE TO BE EXTRA LITERAL "Not every mario animation though🥺🙏🤓" SHUT UP.
Honestly, this is Mario’s good-hearted & humble nature at its finest. Just because he’s a major part of Nintendo doesn’t mean he’s only about Nintendo. He’s about games having fun & innovating in general. Definitely Miyamoto’s mindset gives him that kind of curiosity to see what the others have to offer, so I can totally see Mario being a big fan of Sonic’s games during their rivalry. Because they are fun & creative on how they made it fun. ❤

He just loves to have fun with anyone around him, he doesn’t care about the person’s past. -He’s energetic and upbeat -He can have an attitude sometimes, he gives Bowser Junior sass in Bowser’s Fury because he is careful about trusting his alliance
This animation is super well made by the way! :) You can really see Max progressing his style and his animations improving each time. Easily his cleanest and prettiest 2D animation yet! :)
It isn’t like he’s gonna be out for entire years, it’s only been 5 Months, an Animator gets real busy at times with Personal Life and such. He only posts less than he should but that’s okay. Give the Man time.
The funniest part about this to me is that I KNOW that Max can do a more-than-decent Mario impression, meaning the use of a synthesized voice was a purposeful creative choice
Mario treats himself like a professional. It's kinda like with drug dealers: you don't get high off of your own supply. In hindsighr, this might not have been a very good or positive analogy to use.
Now we need a video of Sonic talking about how much he loves the original Super Mario Bros (partially for neat speedrun tech, partially because of how it defined platforming)
"So, you build up speed with BLJs until you're moving way too fast for wall collision checks to stop you from blasting straight through the star door. Now that's what I call speed!... But this isn't actually my favorite game for speedrunning..." Sonic turns on an SNES with Super Metroid in it. "Come on guys. You know I always save the animals." Camera slowly pans out from Sonic's face to show him surrounded by all the animals he saves during his own games settling in to watch a Super Metroid speedrun.
Sonic needs to be saying "I love my fans, and I especially LOVE the Original Characters based on me that are just re-colors! I love them more than chilidogs! Gotta go SLOW!"
Apparently, the idea of making speed the defining factor of the Sonic games was inspired by the fact that you needed to replay the first level of Super Mario Bros every time.
Nice to see wholesome Mario animations once in a while. Many do parodies, some dark, which can be fun, but something closer to the source material is appreciated too. Great job!
Jesus you guys, he’s making fun of Nintendo. The joke is Mario likes sega better, to the point Mario literally says Sega’s marketing tagline that was a dig at Nintendo
@grey that series began so cool!... only in the first chapter, what came after was so edgy, childish and Jesus Christ please keep away that thing from me💀
Max is just amazing. The Description is short. His animation skills have reached amazing levels. The video is wholesome. but watching a lot of his videos over the years not once has my love for him has ever stagnated he reflects a lot he works hard he tries to be humorus and positive he's just always been a genuine person who puts a lot of love in everything he puts out and its always been amazing to just see.
@vlonecjx i know that deep down youre probably a really good person who is intelligent, strong, confident, talented, resourceful, mature, and strong willed. I wouldnt want to believe you're evil, insecure, looking for attention, a loser, bully, narcissitic, sociopathic, psychopathic, unattractive, ignorant, uneducated, talentless, dull, stupid, bitter, envious, jealous, and irrelevant. I hope you find peace, love, success, wealth, health, genuine relationships with mature friends/family/partner i wish you nice nature, animals, a good job, and the ability to change the world and make it a better place uniting everyone so everyone can be their best i hope you can forgive yourself for all the wrongs youve done i hope you can forgive others who had done wrong to you or encouraged you to be darkest version of yourself this is as much attention that ill give to you. youre not the first or the last person today or in life who speaks evil and i cant really give up because of the negative things evil people say or do so may you be blessed i hope you dont die horribly or karma or get abused or if hell exists you somehow end up there. im not gonna judge you because you could be in a dark place because of trauma, poor enviroment, mental health, or out of a genuine joy for hurting others i can only tell you that your words are intentionally negative and wrong and if you do ever decide to follow the light/love if you wanted to be number 1 or among the greatest or be the best you you can be there are 8 billion+ people and many can be darker or more than then the words you speak. i cant really change those who are evil and i dont have the ability to go to every 8 billion+ person on the planet and correct them or argue or debate or fight, so i am going to go continue living the life only i can live. good bye buddy
This is kind of wholesome. Mario, even though he was rival of Sonic, enjoys games with him and supports him. It would be even better if it turned out that sonic also enjoys games with Mario.
I mean to be frank, I don't think Nintendo really minds. I mean Sakurai's favorite console was the PlayStation. He even showed his living room on-screen and a PlayStation was sure enough there when showcasing Min Min. Heck, he got Joker in Smash too. That was his one personal pick Nintendo allowed him to choose, and he chose a PlayStation4 exclusive representative.
This feels very in-character for Mario. He's been shown to hold zero grudges, to enjoy simple-but-challenging experiences, and holds an appreciation for tactile hardware over intangible software. Also while he's famously loyal to a fault, his loyalty is always towards people, not organizations, meaning no qualms with favouring a rival to Nintendo.
Actually wholesome. I can imagine Sonic now, even with is 90’s attitude, secretly admiring Super Mario World. Or at least him & Tails playing two players in a Super Mario Bros game.
This is honestly adorable. I like the idea that Mario and Sonic both actually really like and appreciate each others games. Imagining that they are both huge fans of each others and would both freak out if they met each other like a couple of fanboys, fuckin cute shit
It's funny and cute at the same time. Honestly, I enjoyed it and it's really in character for Mario to speak praise to Sega like that, especially considering the Mario & Sonic Olympics games had them as friendly rivals and friends.
For how long sega and nintendo have been at the console war, it would make sense that they're on more friendly terms. One would assume Sonic feels a similar way. Bet his favorite Mario game would be a 3d release like SM64
Daaayyuum, I love that animation. Super clean, and I love the way you drew/animated Mario. He looks so good. Also, it's actually pretty wholesome seeing that Mario likes Sonic 3 and Knuckles.
wow, man, you went and made something genuinely and unironically wholesome while also pretty darn funny AND showing off your skills as an animator and cartoonist! for real, well done! :>
Seeing Mario geek out about a game that isn’t Nintendo is actually kind a nice. It almost makes him sorta like a real person, instead of a mascot for product placement
I love this style of Mario, i cant quite nail what it is but its just so appealing. Its a nice mix of modern mario, with a bit of early jumpman design elements, and the nes colors. I'd love to see more of him.😊
I always enjoy watching every last frame of Max’s animations several times just to see how much detail he puts into them. Brings be back to the good ol’ days of when Luigi’s Day Out was a big hit :)
This is such a feel-good animation! It would be awesome to have a companion video of Sonic giving praise to a Mario game in return. Someone else mentioned the original Mario Bros would be fitting because of speed running strats. But, take it a step further and have Sonic wistfully say, "This is how I got my start. Without Mario, I wouldn't be where I am today." Considering the resurgence Sonic has had in the past year, this could be a positive thing. Any time before that, and it probably would have been a bit depressing to hear, haha.
Damn it, Max, you've done it. You've made my all-time favorite version of Mario. He's just adorable and so chill, the design is damn-near perfect. I just love him so much.
I really love the animation style, and the way mario is drawn looks like its from old promotional material, especially with the smb1 color palette being recognizable but not the same as the color palette here
I just realized Mario’s colors are based on how he somewhat looked like in the original with a red and brown, while giving him features of his more recent designs! I think this is probably my favorite redesign of that short Italian plumber.
The thing is, Mario is so friendly and wholesome... that I could potentially see this being reconned in. Especially with how close Sega and Nintendo got after the Dreamcast. This is fucking adorable shit, fr.
A minor thing, but I appreciate how Mario is wearing his green overalls rather than the blue ones, it feels like he's in a more casual environment, making his excitement for S3&K all the more earnest and endearing
@@Beebobug 1. Yes, probably 2. I believe when I wrote the comment, I meant "overalls" as in the whole general outfit, meaning the shirt and pants combined, and the green shirt stood out to me as different more than the red overalls for some reason
Uhhh.. sorry to break it you.. but it’s brown, not green. edit: lmao i thought that OP was referring to the shirt behind mario's overalls, but uhh yeah no that is DEFINITELY not green, it's red.
We should appreciate Mario by telling us the lock on cartridge, also this video is really wholesome, never expected to see Mario enjoy a Sega game but really inspiring.
I love it whem max posts mario content or nintendo in general. It looks so good in his art style. Plus this is a massive contrast to the insanity of brain dump
The idea of Mario's favorite game being S3&K is both really funny and surprisingly adorable.
Yeah
S3&K sounds like a fighting game lol
@@kirby1225 sounds like the legendary anime S3K

I love to think that both Mario and Sonic love each others games but can’t express it to the public because of the corporation rivalry. Behind the scenes they just geek out together- I love them!
Their pride is just as high as their respects for one another
I agree! I think it would be adorable!
I think they’re just friends
Have you ever seen Cartoon Beatbox Battles?
I can't imagine Mario being particularly enthusiastic for Sonic Forces.
Honestly this is just really wholesome. Mario doesn't care about the beef. He recognizes a quality product when he sees one.
Except for the very last line.
yep it makes me happy
Something Mario would do
Yep, thats why Sonic collabed with a quality company right after the dreamcast, and they raced in the olympics together like they friends they are.
Yeah "quality product" (do not look at the lasts 20 years games o_o)
Putting Mario in his SMB1 outfit was a stroke of genius! A fantastic way to make this animation stand out from other Mario animations.

Mario treats himself like a professional. It's kinda like with drug dealers: you don't get high off of your own supply.
In hindsighr, this might not have been a very good or positive analogy to use.
Proves that their rivalry was only for fun, and thats wholesome
It's kinda like having that Spider-Man rivalry only to see Tobey, Andrew and Tom being bros to each other in their first crossover
They were only ever rivals on stage.
Now we need a video of Sonic talking about how much he loves the original Super Mario Bros (partially for neat speedrun tech, partially because of how it defined platforming)
That sounds cute
"So, you build up speed with BLJs until you're moving way too fast for wall collision checks to stop you from blasting straight through the star door. Now that's what I call speed!... But this isn't actually my favorite game for speedrunning..."
Sonic turns on an SNES with Super Metroid in it.
"Come on guys. You know I always save the animals."
Camera slowly pans out from Sonic's face to show him surrounded by all the animals he saves during his own games settling in to watch a Super Metroid speedrun.
Sonic needs to be saying "I love my fans, and I especially LOVE the Original Characters based on me that are just re-colors! I love them more than chilidogs! Gotta go SLOW!"
Apparently, the idea of making speed the defining factor of the Sonic games was inspired by the fact that you needed to replay the first level of Super Mario Bros every time.
Nah Super Mario 3
If there isn't one, there should be a sequel featuring Sonic talking about his favourite Mario game
Sonic's favored game would probable be mario Kart 8 deluxe
Nice to see wholesome Mario animations once in a while. Many do parodies, some dark, which can be fun, but something closer to the source material is appreciated too. Great job!
Yeah. It makes sense that Mario would appreciate something like this since Nintendo is all about innovation
Jesus you guys, he’s making fun of Nintendo. The joke is Mario likes sega better, to the point Mario literally says Sega’s marketing tagline that was a dig at Nintendo
Yeah personally I’m sick of the parodies especially the sonic ones
And especially the terrible amy the killer one by mashed
@grey that series began so cool!... only in the first chapter, what came after was so edgy, childish and Jesus Christ please keep away that thing from me💀
@@CheddarDrip How dare we interpret a joke as something else
Max is just amazing. The Description is short. His animation skills have reached amazing levels. The video is wholesome.
but watching a lot of his videos over the years
not once has my love for him has ever stagnated
he reflects a lot
he works hard
he tries to be humorus and positive
he's just always been a genuine person who puts a lot of love in everything he puts out and its always been amazing to just see.
ok
On God.
i agree
@vlonecjx i know that deep down youre probably a really good person who is intelligent, strong, confident, talented, resourceful, mature, and strong willed.
I wouldnt want to believe you're evil, insecure, looking for attention, a loser, bully, narcissitic, sociopathic, psychopathic, unattractive, ignorant, uneducated, talentless, dull, stupid, bitter, envious, jealous, and irrelevant.
I hope you find peace, love, success, wealth, health, genuine relationships with mature friends/family/partner
i wish you nice nature, animals, a good job, and the ability to change the world and make it a better place uniting everyone so everyone can be their best
i hope you can forgive yourself for all the wrongs youve done
i hope you can forgive others who had done wrong to you or encouraged you to be darkest version of yourself
this is as much attention that ill give to you.
youre not the first or the last person today or in life who speaks evil
and i cant really give up because of the negative things evil people say or do
so may you be blessed
i hope you dont die horribly or karma or get abused or if hell exists you somehow end up there.
im not gonna judge you because you could be in a dark place because of trauma, poor enviroment, mental health, or out of a genuine joy for hurting others
i can only tell you that your words are intentionally negative and wrong
and if you do ever decide to follow the light/love
if you wanted to be number 1 or among the greatest or be the best you you can be
there are 8 billion+ people and many can be darker or more than then the words you speak.
i cant really change those who are evil and i dont have the ability to go to every 8 billion+ person on the planet and correct them or argue or debate or fight, so i am going to go continue living the life only i can live. good bye buddy
@vlonecjx corny ahh
This is kind of wholesome. Mario, even though he was rival of Sonic, enjoys games with him and supports him. It would be even better if it turned out that sonic also enjoys games with Mario.
There is a comic about Sonic being a Zelda fanboy.
S3&K is definitely better than any contemporary Mario game
Mario and sonic are friends now.
Fanfiction jokes aside, I genuinely believe that Sonic would be a Zelda fan
@@marocomarocodoidos You need Determinism
Not only Mario betrayed Nintendo in this video but he also just told us the history of the technology that was shown.
I mean to be frank, I don't think Nintendo really minds. I mean Sakurai's favorite console was the PlayStation. He even showed his living room on-screen and a PlayStation was sure enough there when showcasing Min Min. Heck, he got Joker in Smash too. That was his one personal pick Nintendo allowed him to choose, and he chose a PlayStation4 exclusive representative.
Rumor has it Sonic is chained up in Mario's basement
did not expect to see you here, lhugueny.
but i can confirm the rumors, sonic is indeed chained in the basement...
@@aydenthehedgefox9592 when i heard the news i thought it was knuckles up at it again with eggman, is it actually mario?
Whoawhoawhoawhoahoahooowho
Story of Undertale
holy shit its the story of undertale guy
So many guards a can rate 5/5 like i do with sonic 3 and knuckles
The idea of Mario not only appreciating sonic as a rival and also liking his condoles sounds so wholesome to me that I verbally “Awwed” at that
This came out the same day as the Mario Movie, and you can't help but think that's intentional
It’s actually kinda wholesome and realistic. Like when they interview an actor or music artist and ask what their favorite is.
Guys what one is your favorite
The way Mario sits and plays the game like a kid is really adorable.
But that's how you normally sit??
I love the idea of video game characters having admiration and respect for each other’s work. That’s a very nice thought :)
Mario looks way too adorable in this animation. It warms my heart too.
A video made by you that isn't horribly depressing is actually a breath of fresh air. Thank you so much. 💜
Literally my exact reaction 💀
@israelsoarescunha2965 what does this mean israeksoarescunha2965
@@CityofChaoss Don't pay attention to him. He is a troll.
“Sega do what Ninten-don’t.”
More like gilardi do what most animators don’t, upload.
The point?
I ruined 69 likes 😔
@@OniLordMiki the point is that most animators don’t post often, I should know because I am one
Said from the man of Nintendo himself
This feels very in-character for Mario. He's been shown to hold zero grudges, to enjoy simple-but-challenging experiences, and holds an appreciation for tactile hardware over intangible software.
Also while he's famously loyal to a fault, his loyalty is always towards people, not organizations, meaning no qualms with favouring a rival to Nintendo.
Hearing such a calm voice in a entire hotidggedy video sets some strange setting.
This is actually really wholesome lmao, also I love how Mario looks.
Wasn't expecting something so wholesome but I'm here for it.
I love how you gave mario his original smb bros design from 1985 it makes him look more inexperienced and not used to mushroom kingdom
Me too 😊😊
I LOVE this design
Actually wholesome. I can imagine Sonic now, even with is 90’s attitude, secretly admiring Super Mario World. Or at least him & Tails playing two players in a Super Mario Bros game.
I like the idea that the rivalry between Mario and Sonic was just a façade and they’re actually really good friends
Idea of mario rivalry
This is honestly adorable. I like the idea that Mario and Sonic both actually really like and appreciate each others games. Imagining that they are both huge fans of each others and would both freak out if they met each other like a couple of fanboys, fuckin cute shit
With an animation as wholesome and simple as this, I'm inclined to believe there's a vulgar and dark hidden meaning I'm not seeing lol
Same
And the Uberduck AI
He’s making fun of Nintendo
It's funny and cute at the same time. Honestly, I enjoyed it and it's really in character for Mario to speak praise to Sega like that, especially considering the Mario & Sonic Olympics games had them as friendly rivals and friends.
Thank you for making a very sweet and smooth animation with Mario. Ever so calmly explaining his favorite game. My heart, soul, and mind is at ease.
I was sort of waiting for the dark humor to come in, but it just ended and i was like ... eee! 🎉
This version of Mario is so adorable. Look at him sitting there playing Sonic like a 5 year old with a mustache. I would die for him.
Actually pretty sweet of Mario to like his rival’s games so much both for the tech and for the fun
You know Sonic plays SMB3 too. Game recognizes game, literally
Remenber when max made a parody of Mario where he was rude? Now they made him a nice guy :D
Hey, he recognises when a competitor has a good idea that Nintendo never did. It keeps him humble.
It’s litterally the cutest idea ever for them to love each others games
For how long sega and nintendo have been at the console war, it would make sense that they're on more friendly terms. One would assume Sonic feels a similar way. Bet his favorite Mario game would be a 3d release like SM64
my ass
Daaayyuum, I love that animation. Super clean, and I love the way you drew/animated Mario. He looks so good. Also, it's actually pretty wholesome seeing that Mario likes Sonic 3 and Knuckles.
Love Mario 💙
Hearing a by-hand animator use A.I is like watching my grandfather build a high-end PC
You know I always felt like Mario’s favorite game would be… Mario.
I actually find the idea of Mario liking Sega games pretty wholesome
wow, man, you went and made something genuinely and unironically wholesome while also pretty darn funny AND showing off your skills as an animator and cartoonist! for real, well done! :>
Seeing Mario geek out about a game that isn’t Nintendo is actually kind a nice. It almost makes him sorta like a real person, instead of a mascot for product placement
Sonic and Mario in games: sworn enemies
Sonic and Mario behind the scenes: friends, even playing their games
I love this style of Mario, i cant quite nail what it is but its just so appealing. Its a nice mix of modern mario, with a bit of early jumpman design elements, and the nes colors. I'd love to see more of him.😊
Early mario overalls.
@@marocomarocodoidosAnd the more Jumpman-esque mustache.
I always enjoy watching every last frame of Max’s animations several times just to see how much detail he puts into them.
Brings be back to the good ol’ days of when Luigi’s Day Out was a big hit :)
This is such a feel-good animation!
It would be awesome to have a companion video of Sonic giving praise to a Mario game in return. Someone else mentioned the original Mario Bros would be fitting because of speed running strats. But, take it a step further and have Sonic wistfully say, "This is how I got my start. Without Mario, I wouldn't be where I am today." Considering the resurgence Sonic has had in the past year, this could be a positive thing. Any time before that, and it probably would have been a bit depressing to hear, haha.
What an unexpectedly wholesome video from this channel, I love it
The way he sits in front of the tv, calmly but excited, is so damn cute.
Damn it, Max, you've done it. You've made my all-time favorite version of Mario. He's just adorable and so chill, the design is damn-near perfect. I just love him so much.
mario just simply enjoying other games from other companies competing with his creators is simply perfect, and i love it.
Imagine this would be Sega’s advertisement back in the day, it would be mind blowing.
This animation is better than what we see on TV these days.
I have never something more good then this animation
I really love the animation style, and the way mario is drawn looks like its from old promotional material, especially with the smb1 color palette being recognizable but not the same as the color palette here
I just realized Mario’s colors are based on how he somewhat looked like in the original with a red and brown, while giving him features of his more recent designs! I think this is probably my favorite redesign of that short Italian plumber.
We need more animations where mario and sonic are actually buddies
The thing is, Mario is so friendly and wholesome... that I could potentially see this being reconned in. Especially with how close Sega and Nintendo got after the Dreamcast. This is fucking adorable shit, fr.
Yeah but Sega gets too comfy instead of trying harder.
A minor thing, but I appreciate how Mario is wearing his green overalls rather than the blue ones, it feels like he's in a more casual environment, making his excitement for S3&K all the more earnest and endearing
Buddy… I mean this with no malice or Ill intent..
Are you color blind?
@@Beebobug 1. Yes, probably
2. I believe when I wrote the comment, I meant "overalls" as in the whole general outfit, meaning the shirt and pants combined, and the green shirt stood out to me as different more than the red overalls for some reason
I hate to tell you but there is no green in that outfit.
Uhhh.. sorry to break it you.. but it’s brown, not green.
edit: lmao i thought that OP was referring to the shirt behind mario's overalls, but uhh yeah no that is DEFINITELY not green, it's red.
Yea sorry man but those are yellow :(
There's something wholesome about Mario genuinely enjoying his opponent's game
I love the idea of Mario and Sonic playing each other's games and loving them
He play his friends’ video games, and he has his normal actual voice. This is a good Mario
I already loved Max's design for classic Sonic, now I love his design for classic Mario. I need to see them interact in some way now.
This needs a sequel where Sonic talks about his favourite nintendo console and his favorite Mario game
a hotdiggedydemon cartoon being so nice is very rare, nice :)
We should appreciate Mario by telling us the lock on cartridge, also this video is really wholesome, never expected to see Mario enjoy a Sega game but really inspiring.
That fact that he has a sega genesis let alone, S3&K as his favourite game is actually pretty adorable and surprising at the same time
I love it whem max posts mario content or nintendo in general. It looks so good in his art style. Plus this is a massive contrast to the insanity of brain dump
The idea that Mario likes SEGA and Sonic games while sonic likes Nintendo and Mario games seems like an iconic friendship
Mario liked the concept so much, he convinced Nintendo to make an entire generation of games using a similar premise called Amiibos.
❤ Hearing Mario say "Genesis does what Ninten-don't" was freakin' brilliant
Lmao agreed
