    I love the link power-up in Mario maker 2, they should honestly continue to use it

    • @lermajerms
      @lermajerms 11 місяців тому +6

      i think they should have other NES style video game character power-ups like the master sword. maybe a metroid-themed one, or a dk-themed one, or if you want a later addition, maybe pokemon or kirby? idk, but they just need to make more.

    Since Ocarina of Time when Young Zelda had the Mario posters, I almost wanna believe the Mushroom Kingdom and Hyrule exist in the same universe. Not only 'cause they share the same legend creator. The references and nods to each other make me wanna believe it's so. Even Link ventured his way through in the Kremling homeworld Crocodile Isle and Northerm Kremisphere per one of the Brother Bears.

    I think the first few are less of references and probably more a combination of hardware restrictions (i mean they were all on the 8-bit NES) and lack of a wide range of soundfonts to use (same thing went on to be a problem for Pokemon Red/Blue/Yellow, many of them ended up having extremely or completely similar cries)

    • @Mari_Izu

      The Rod sound effect yes, but a flute summoning a whirlwind sounds like an intentional reference.

      No not at all, the flute In mario 3 Is a reference to the flute from zelda 1 which was used to teleport randomly to different dungeons you'vd beaten much like how In mario 3 Its used to teleport to the warp zone. Song of storms wasnt a thing until ocarina of time which was way after mario 3 released
