In the Mario Teaches Typing games, Mario never criticizes the player for underperforming and tries to be understanding and supportive. According to Charles Martinet, that was his initiative, as he felt being negative would go against the core principles of Mario's character.

In the Mario Teaches Typing games, even if the player does badly or underperforms compared to previous attempts, Mario will try to be understanding instead of critical: Uh-oh, that wasn't quite as fast as the last time. Hmm, are your fingers getting tired? Mine would be by now... if I had any. (laughs) Charles Martinet, speaking at TooManyGames Convention 2021: I got this marvelous opportunity to do Mario Teaches Typing. And when I got the script and I'm in the studio - I'm reading the script for the first time, there were things like "You failed!" "That wasn't very good." "That was much worse... that was bad." And I was reading that and I said, "Do you mind if I just, like, play with these words a little bit and just change them around?" because, you know, I never say "no" and I never say anything negative as Mario... and the producer graciously said "Sure, go for it!" And so it became "Oh, that was good, but I know you can do even better!" "Oh, nice one but let's try again!" so it was always uplifting and always trying to be positive. And I think that that is the essence of the character to me - it's that love and that joy. Source: transcript of speech found at youtube.com/watch?v=k9RywNQXCUM

I'm opening up a new 1500USD donation goal on my Ko-fi. Me and my family have been left financially stranded once again, more details in the screenshotted message. As before, even if you can't donate, I appreciate even just spreading the word around... ko-fi.com/beholdmaxine God damn it.

Well, it looks like my time has come... My mom's lost her job last month, and we've been having difficulties finding a new one. We've got 1 week left to find one so we can make it in time to pay July's bills. To that end, I'm opening up a Ko-fi to buy us some more time. ko-fi.com/beholdmaxine

Many games for the GameCube use only a fraction of the storage capacity of the disc. I have analyzed the data to determine what the maximum number of retail Mario games that can fit on a single disc would be, creating the Luigi & Wario + Puzzle + Rhythm Maximum Value Pack.

A GameCube disc has a storage capacity of 1.46 gigabytes. Many Mario games use only a fraction of that storage. Below is the optimal distribution of the smallest Mario-related games on the system to fit 6 entire retail games on a single disc. Unused space 54 MB Luigi's Mansion 186 MB DDR Mario Mix 264 MB Wario World 257 MB Donkey Konga 2 312 MB Donkey Konga 250 MB Please note that this pie chart is for data visualization only. If the games were in fact put on one disc, the data would be arranged in rings, not in slices. Concept for post based on an idea from a comment by @vinchvolt.bsky.social

Wow! If you look closely, you'll notice they've kept and updated the original Mario easter egg in the Ocarina of Time remake

mine is Pikuniku (2019) made by Sectordub and published by Devolver Digital. I know it has a short adventure story with a cute art style and physics based platforming and redeems its shortcomings with its overall charm but i don't care. a friend told me a sequel is in development and i blocked them

No hate, no dogpiling, just curious. For me, it's Skyrim. Don't know why, considering it should be exactly my kind of game, but it just didn't click for me.

what's you "I did not care for the godfather" of games?" written above a screenshot from family guy of the family being drowned by sprinklers in their panic room.
