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

Xenoblade is a good game because sometimes you're minding your own business when suddenly you encounter Inconceivable Jimmy, a lizard who is slightly larger than average Inconceivable Jimmy proceeds to beat your ass while the best song in the world plays

Just in case you didn't know ModRetro fucking sucks and "Automated War Initiative" is a disgusting title Also, War Crime Enthusiast Palmer Luckey is incredibly thin skinned and will chase you around various social media platforms if you talk sauce about him and his shitty M64. Worth it.

FB comment: Palmer Luckey: Mike Fink the M64 is $230 not $320 and it is far more powerful than the Mister. We developed our own core and open sourceed all the hardware and software And Aduril helps kill Russians, not children Me: Palmer Free Luckey that's without the controller, not included, which is $90 And also fuck youWe still clown on you with memes Palmer Luckey and is shit handheld emulator, along with other fascists that don't care about human life, like Elon Musk and JD Vance
