ACT 3 - 1 <<< 21 / 22 / ???

I apologize at how long it took for this update to come out.

Things happened and I’ll leave it at that.

I also posted everything (except one comic) to TikTok! So there’s that too!

I will try to aim for my original schedule of an update every couple of days. If I don’t keep my word, I have failed.

I am also not apologizing for killing Cooper off. He was fated to perish the day he tossed the penguin 🤭.

Lando, Oscar, Daniel, Yuki, Alex & Esteban answering who their go-to Mario Kart characters are

(From ESPN on TikTok)

Lando + Mario Kart, two of my favourite things 😘

"I mean, I love Yoshi, but for Mario Kart, it's Koopa Troopa. He's my boy." 🫶🏻

[n0picturespls]

Im bored so here's what I think each jrwi character would play in Mario Kart (minus TMK & Judgement, I haven't seen them yet) with little to no explanation!

Riptide:

Gillion: Honesty Gils a tough one for me. I think Yoshi fits, but also strangely Baby Luigi??

Jay: Peach or Daisy (I'm very biased here bc I main Peach and Jays my fav)

Chip: Toad. It just feels right to me. That or Pink Gold Peach.

Prime Defenders: (I made this before I watched s2 ep 15 lmao, I NAILED VYNCENTS!! And Dakota would not main baby mario sorry grizzly, but king boo for william is believable)

William: Shy guy. Yes it's the obvious joke, BUT ITS RIGHT! Either that or maybe another little guy

Vincent: I actually don't know. Luigi maybe???

Dakota: Bowser Juinor. I feel like it fits him so far, well, this or Diddy Kong.

Ashe: Animal Crossing Villager Girl or Shy guy. The most non binary choices of course

Apotheosis:

Peter: Lemmy. This one has no reason I just think he's a koopaling

Thanatos: DRY BOWSER!!! HES AN EDGY BOY IT WORKS SO WELL

Rumi/Elena: Pauline for sure, or Rosalina. Badass stunning women, he would kick ass as one of these girlies. After leaving rumi behind, I think as Elena they'd still be Rosalina or Peach

Bitb:

Kian: BIRDOOOO

Rand: I'm tied between a try hard ass combo or some fucking random guy. Funky Kong. Why notl

Rolan: Koopa Troopa, or Lakitu. Buddy doesn't play video games much, but I feel he's an NPC kinda guy. Or maybe Wiggler.

The Suckening:

Shilo: Mario. He knows nothing about video games, but Emizel said it was called Mario Kart so.

Emizel: He would for sure main Funky Kong, 100%

Arthur: Dry bones. He refuses Bowser but this little edgy guy? Perfect

Wonderlust:

Runt: I think Runt would main Toadette on the biggest car combo possibly. She's slamming people off the track with the lightest character there is and loving it.

Troy: Mmm ok tough one. I don't think Troy would play video games, but if he would it would be Gold Mario. Yk. The one you only get if you finish everything?

Blink: Luigi. I don't feel like I need to explain this.

Not All Turtles Are Koopas

So in previous posts have talked about the idea of a Boss Creeper or Boss Koopa Species, and even came up with the term Common Koopa to make a differentiation between Koopa Troopas and other "Koopas." And have even used the word Koopa to refer to everything from Bowser's Species to Lakitus. That last part is something I and I've seen many other people have done in reference to the idea of Koopa Species. However, this is wrong. Not every turtle in the Mario World is a Koopa or in Japanese NokoNoko.

So what do I mean? Koopa Troopas aka NokoNoko in the Super Mario Bros. manual are stated to be "Soldier(s) of the Turtle Empire." Spikes in Super Mario Run description says the following about Spikes. "This hardworking turtle has a very small shell." And the Bad Ball Boy Constellation from Mario Party 9 says the following about Spikes. "A constellation that calls to mind a fiendish turtle who can spit spiked balls at his foes." Spiny's Egg Description from the SMB Manuals says the following. "Eggs of the turtle Spiny, pet of Lakitu." And the Sharp Shell Constellation says it's "a constellation named after a turtle who hides beneath a spiky shell." Buzzy Beetle's Super Mario Run's description says the following about them. "This black turtle is protected by a tough shell."

Notice how none of these descriptions said they are a Koopa or NokoNoko. But rather just said they are turtles. This is because to my knowledge all turtles in Mario's world are not intended to be various species of Koopas. But rather Koopas are various species of turtles.

However, there are some actual Koopa species/ relatives. I believe with part of the Koopa's Japanese name NokoNoko is used in a name, makes connect amongst these species. There is the Bombshell Koopa whose name is Nokobon in Japanese meaning Koopa Explosion. There is the Snooza Koopa whose name in Japanese is Tamago Nokonoko, meaning Eggshell Koopa. This would make them an ocean based species of Koopas that converged with Sea Turtles. This is because we see Sea Turtles in the Kong Archipelago which don't look similar to Snooza Koopas. Then you have the Snortoise from the Flower Kingdom, whose name is Suppoko meaning Softshell Koopa. This would make them the Softshell Turtle equivalent of the Koopas Species.

Nastasia

(Credits of the art to @starlitwishes-art all of their art is great! <3 )

Nastasia's past is explained by Carson in one of his histories:

'Once upon a time, a man went to look for the girl he loved, who was missing. As he passed through a forest, he found a bat stuck in a trap. He set the bat free. It promptly thanked him and disappeared.

As he lay down to camp that night, he heard a voice and looked about. He noticed the sky was filled with a huge, round moon. There stood before him a woman he had never seen. The bat had transformed into the species of the one she had fallen for.' Now, I don't know if that's true or not...

The last part of the story was... 'The bat pledged eternal loyalty to the man out of love on that night.' ...

Obviously, we can suppose that the man in the story is Blumiere (before he turns into Count Bleck), the girl who he was looking for is Timpani and the bat who then turns into a woman is Nastasia.

Her name is Greek for "She who shall rise up again", possibly a reference to her only falling unconscious from a deadly attack or the story with the bat and the man Carson tells titled "Of Bats and Men". It is also a portmanteau of "nasty" and "Anastasia".

In the English version, she speaks in a casual manner, using words like "'K" and "gonna" often, although in the Japanese version she speaks much more professionally.

Her abilities enables her to control several people at once and command them to do tasks they would never consider doing in their right mind, such as forcing Luigi to attack his friends. However, her hypnosis is at least possible to resist, as shown by Peach during her wedding with Bowser. Nastasia seems to use her power by lifting her glasses, upon which a white glow flashes and her target is surrounded in square lasers, which puts the victim under Nastasia's (and by extension, Count Bleck's) control. Notably, the hypnosis she uses may sometimes cause physical changes in the victim, such as hypnotized Koopa Troopas donning dark glasses and spikes. (And perhaps that would explain the drastic change in Mr. L outfit)

Another fun fact is that, in the post-game, there's a boy on Flopside who was in love with Nastasia, but she comments to us her feelings for the Count, and decides that even if she could learn to love again, she probably never could have measured up to Timpani anyway.

Card type: Rare

Card Description: Nastasia is Count Bleck's executive assistant. She's in charge of scheduling, organizing, and brain-control. Word is, she's got a secret crush on her boss.

Trivia: Before the game's initial release, artwork of Nastasia and Tiptron together was released despite the fact that the two never interact in the game.

Tippi originally had a tattle for Nastasia in the postgame, though since Tippi would have already been gone by this point, it went unused and remains in the game's files. The tattle reads, "That's Nastasia, the count's executive assistant. She has served him the longest... Without him, she is quite lonely, but she manages to go on in her new life... It is hard for me to see her like this... I think I know exactly how she feels..."

Quotes:

"Yeah, I'll fire off a memo on that...but for now, we have another item on the agenda..."

"Yeah, so some minions in the Bowser organization are still resisting assimilation. So I'm heading out to squash the resistance..."

"So I guess you finished up that report on your own inadequacy that I needed?"

"Um, no, my count. I won't be doing that. My life is already sworn to you."

"If only I could have, y'know, been that girl... Things would have been different..."

"Yeah, I'm afraid your orders mean nothing anymore."

[pixie-yuni]

Dear pixie-yuni,

As a fellow lover of the Koopa General, I too refuse to believe he's dead. If I know anything about Blue Shells (and I do), it's that no matter whether they hit or miss, they always come back! AnywhosyDAISY 🤭

I know you've made comics on occasion, so if it's not too bold of me: might I suggest a series of comics starring the blue boi himself? I've always had this mental image of him personally overseeing the training of new recruits, and going full drill sergeant on them lol. If you could possibly make some hilarious misadventures in boot-campery featuring the General and rookie Koopa Troopas, I'd be absolutely stoked! Then again, it's just a suggestion, not a requirement.

True true it takes much more to get rid of Sir General Koopa 🤝😌✨

And sorry I don’t take requests but I did actually planned a comic for him last year but after seeing people steal my art of him, it turned my passion to creat more of him down :’( tho your idea is so cool and would love to see more of him and his minions ^^

Maybe later on after I finish what I got on my mind i might draw him again!

Squid Memes Squidbeak Splatoon (part 2)

Part 1 Here

More Harbor because he gave me Brain Worms

Born and Raised in Littol Beeg Bluff (yes the same Littol Beeg Bluff from "The Ballad of Dusty Grumpton" in the Factory Reset AU. I'm allowed to re-use my own ideas if I damn well please)

Comes from a blended family, and his stepmom and younger siblings (twin boy and girl around eight) are actually Koopa Troopas of all things.

The only playable Agent to both know and like his parents

Seriously Habor's moms are fucking awesome. Everybody in the NSS loves Harbor's moms

About 80% Humboldt Squid (aka Jumbo Flying Squid), which is why he's so fucking tall. It also means that he's really fast in swim form, to the point that he could probably outswim someone who'd filled all the slots on a piece of gear with Swim Speed Up without any Swim Speed Up investment of his own. (this is inspired by Lucky, another, very different version of Agent 4 made by EikaPrime on Ao3)

Eight

Yes she just goes by Eight. She was a little self-conscious about it at first but then she found out about SMG4 and the other SM64 Blooper Youtubers and no longer gives a shit

If she remembers her old name yet she's not mentioned it

Obviously doesn't remember her parents, but given the Domes are the kind of place where you can Start Training to Become an Advanced Military Hardware Engineer and Elite Soldier at Fucking Nine Years Old, I imagine she wouldn't have many memories of them even without the Amnesia

Contrary to popular fanon, my version of Eight doesn't have a scar from the Test Failed Bomb. This is because Respawn Pads (as long as they're fully functional) completely erase whatever the fatal injury was, leaving no trace apart from maybe some phantom pains if it was particularly nasty

She does, however, have plenty of scars from all the other shit she went through in that hellhole

Managed to complete every single test before she escaped

My version of Eight is a single year younger than Marina canonically is when they meet so I'm not going the Off the Hook Adoption route for this one (maybe in another AU with a more lose interpretation of Canon, but given this AU is specifically meant to adhere to Splatoon Canon as much as possible we're out'a luck this time), though she does still become very close friends with them

She's got Craig literally right there for any potential adoption attempts anyway

Very rarely speaks, but is expressive enough that most people can tell what she means anyway (you know Ferb? It's the exact same thing as what Ferb does)

Doesn't have a weapon preference. She's comfortable with any weapon she gets her hands on

Except Splatanas

She fucking hates Splatanas and everything they stand for

Configuring Frye's Palette in the Memverse was legitimately harder than dealing with her own Palette's stupid "Hacks or Chips, you can't have both" Gimmick Bullshit

Andi Finn

Has no fucking idea who her parents were and does not care

Actual supergenius who could probably build a functioning replica of Grizz's rocket out of scrap metal from just her memory of fighting on top of it. Never learned how to read before the NSS got ahold of her because she lived alone in the desert

Swears more than Bob

Can't remember where she learned Salmonid from

Somehow even the homeless kid has better hygiene than Paige

Made up her last name on the spot when she was signing up for a Turfing License (if you're wondering how she managed to sign up for a Turfing License when she couldn't read; With Great Difficulty)

Figures she probably isn't a full Inkling given her weird beartrap beak but doesn't give enough of a shit to take a DNA test about it

Yet

Paige dragged her home to their apartment almost immediately after the final battle against Mr. Grizz and she never left. It's not an official adoption but that's only because Paige is a bit oblivious to their own feelings on the matter and Andi doesn't know that paperwork is supposed to be involved

Almost exclusively calls Paige "Cap" even when they're out of uniform. I mean, she can't very well call them "Mom" or "Dad" since they're nonbinary, now can she? Paige has no idea that's what she means by it and just thinks it's a nickname because Andi gives everybody nicknames. Usually as insults

It took her 333 tries to get through "Splitting Crosshairs" (I legitimately Cannot beat that stupid kettle no matter how hard I try and want her to share my frustration but also want all four agents to have 100%ed their respective adventures so I'm just having it take her a comically long time to do)

Mains Explosher because it's the closest she can get to a Turf-Legal grenade launcher (for now...)

The Eternal Hunger, Devourer of the Bear

Is fine with people using Crabcake instead

Uses It/Its exclusively

Officially designated Agent 5 I will die on that hill

Was "The Eternal Hunger, Stabber of Ankles" before going through Return of the Mammalians

Will stab anyone who points out that it didn't actually eat Mr. Gizz, he just exploded

Extremely eloquent, but most people can't speak Salmonid so it just sounds like it's making the same gurgley noises as every other Smallfry

Once looked Marie dead in the eyes and said "No one will ever believe you" in perfect Inklish while they were alone. Has never said anything else in anything other than Salmonid where someone can hear it

Andi and Crabcake fucking hated each-other for the first third of their adventure before bonding over kicking Frye's ass and now they're inseparable

Actually gets its own uniform after everything's said and done. It consists of a little high-rez safety vest (like the one on Paige's field uniform), an earpiece (suction-cupped in place since it doesn't have external ears) in the same style as Andi's headset, and a clean black-with-thin-yellow-racing-stripes-on-the-sides pants...wrap...thing

It also got a new switchblade from Sheldon (the old one got lost in the space battle after it turned into Hugefry) with the same kind of black-with-blue-LEDs aesthetic as Paige's gear and a blade made of Sardinium

Also thinks that it and Andi are already adopted by Paige but that's for Salmonid Culture Reasons instead of Not Having an Education Reasons

Got separated from its swarm during a Run a few months before Return of the Mammalians. It wasn't too fussed about it and figured it could handle itself in the desert for a while and then either reunite with that swarm if it ran into them or join a new one if it happened to come across one. Because Salmonid Culture

Considers the NSS its current swarm

[superluigiglitchy]

Some more stuff on my "Meggy gets raised by Mario and Luigi" au that I still haven't figured out the name of

Because of her being present Mario is considerably less chaotic and less of an asshole when he gets a face full of meme energy from the guardian pod but still pretty chaotic and stupid (basically a himbo)

This also has me making up dumb lore and I can't help but stuff @duckapus Splatoon ocs into Splatoon related aus so Paige basically runs away from home a lot sooner and ends up running into a disguised Callie and Marie upon arriving into Inkopolis after sneaking onto a metro train at the tender age of 10 whilst on the hunt for their missing older sister, Meggy whom was always talked about in hushed voices by their parents

Obviously this leads to Paige getting taking in by the Cuttlefishes

Yes this does in fact have the Cuttlefishes desperately hide the fact their essentially secret agents in increasingly more ridiculous ways on to lead to Paige following them sneakily into the manhole and finding out themselves cause why not

Mario and Luigi as I said decided to take a vacation to Inkadia with Meggy in order to learn more about her and her culture, this takes place when she's like 8 and during this she also meets Sam, Heavy and Kenji and ends up hitting off with them instantly whilst Luigi and Mario were discussing with a CPS member on how to care for a cephalopod child they were causing mayhem and chaos as toddlers do, go figure

Also during this trip the Superstar Siblings decide to watch and ongoing Turf War match and watch the Splatfest Champion Wren tear up the competition and little Meggy is instantly star strucked, silently slipping through the safety bars of the stands while Luigi and Mario were distracted to rush over to the champ himself when the bros. Found out they immediately had a heart attack and end up thanking Wren after he saved Meggy from being indirectly splatted

As a direct effect of Mario not being stupid, Peach is more tolerable of his shenanigans and not much of a prissy bitch so the Anime Ban doesn't happen however this does lead to a different arc

The Anime Cases Arc

In which Tari ends up put into a lead role and has to figure out a strange mystery in Inkopolis where dozens upon dozens of inklings have been disappearing over the last few weeks and ends up helping a Koopa Troopa named Detective Koopric and his adopted mouser daughter Daisybelle or Belle for short in solving this case after both Kenji, Sam and Heavy telk her they havent seen her in awhike and thought she was just hanging out with the glitchy gang (which was obviously not the case considering the fact the reason Tari asked about Meggy was because Mario worryingly asked her to help them find the missing inkling since she didn't come home on time) which obviously leads to some... Must justified panic

Not only that but Axol seems to be missing as well, which is understandably suspicious considering it lining up with the beginning of the disappearances

The events of the rest of the arc mimic that of the anime arc only with one difference

Desti doesn't die but is instead heavily crippled no thanks to Sephiroth piercing an area of nerves that mimic the spine leaving her in a coma, and even if she does its likely she'll never be able to walk normally again not with the state her nerves were left in, she'll need to use crutches for the rest of her life or a wheelchair even

Meggy now human (and recently reunited with the sibling she never knew she had, boy that was a reunion that's for sure) is extremely guilty over the state her friend has been left decides to fulfill her promise she made with the octoling

Win the Turf War Tournament

How I see this going down pt.4:

Intervention

TW: Physical abuse

After some Koopa Troopa brings Roy in after a battle with the Mario Bros

*On the battle ship*

Bowser: he WHAT?!

Kamek: H-He went on a mission to conquer the mushroom kingdom, your highness. He was not successful and just arrived with a few injuries. We're counting how many of our army have been captured or beaten badly.

Bowser: Where is he!?

Kamek: Sire?

Bowser: Where. Is. ROY!

Kamek: I-In the infirmary, in one of the smaller castles nearby, his wounds are being treated.

Bowser: *starts rumbling* We're landing now!

Kamek: B-But the-

Bowser: I SAID WE'RE LANDING!

Kamek: *sighs* yes, your highness...

*Loud stomping*

Roy: *winces* careful with that-

Bowser: *busts in, toppling over some Koopa and Goomba nurses* ROY! WHAT WERE YOU THINKING?!

Roy: Chill.. I was just trying to do what Junior did.. we didn't lose too many soldiers. And I was so clo-

Bowser: SHUT IT! You do NOT give orders to the troops and if anything you shouldn't be trying to conquer the kingdom without MY approval!

Roy: Right.. the Prince got to... and it's not like you've gotten any closer to taking it over either. I bet the Princess doesn't even want to marry yo-

Bowser: *steps up to him growling* Watch your tongue soldier or I snap it off-

Kamek: *gets in between them* Haha.. let's just calm down, sire.. Your first invasion wasn't that successful either, he's still young. Let the boy rest up.

Roy: *grins* Yeah, get out, I need to "rest".

Bowser: *lunges at him and claws his glasses off*

*room falls silent*

Roy: *looks at the blood drip from the wounds*

Bowser: pick up your shit, and NEVER talk out of line again.

Roy:.....*gets off the check up bed and picks up his shades*

*Bowser huffs out smoke and leaves mumbling to himself*

Kamek: *waits for Bowser to be out of earshot* Roy...

Kamek: let's get you cleaned up, son..

Roy: *climbs back onto the bed and puts on the broken shades* ..... *he winces at the glass shards getting in his fresh wound* I'm fine.

Roy: *licks the blood a bit*

[chipthekeeper]

okay as promised, all my thoughts that no one asked for on the mario kart bracket. i know i picked mario kart deluxe characters but i actually see this as a competition happening on the wii (greatest console in history)

Kino as Baby Daisy vs. Wilmon as Yoshi -- this is very simple. you cannot beat a teenage boy at a video game unless you are a teenage girl. kino, famously not a teenage girl, quits halfway through

Nemik as Waluigi vs. Brasso as Luigi -- mario kart is the one fun, mindless thing that nemik does in his life. but even it is done with all his brainpower. he navigates that track like a boss. brasso, with the best mario kart driver luigi (non-biased opinion of course), does well and easily finishes second but is not mad at all to lose to this kid

Partagaz as Tanooki Mario vs. Leida as Baby Luigi -- leida has logged many hours on the mario kart track because perrin makes her play against him all the time and she has become by far the best player in her tradwife-to-be club. partagaz simply spends the whole race wondering why his avatar is a fox

Jezzi as Lemmy vs. Taga as King Boo -- taga is a nerd, i believe this in my bones. thus he is all over this chance to win a gaming competition. jezzi has better things to care about but tries her hardest

Bix as Wendy vs. Taramyn as Peach -- taramyn is unironically glad to have drawn peach in the draft. he goes all out because this is the most fun he's had in literal years. bix is just as invested though and leads almost the whole race until a blue shell takes her out with two turns to go and taramyn seizes the opportunity

Time Grappler as Toad vs. Mosk as Rosalina -- time grappler is just quietly perfect at this. mosk spends the whole time wanting to police anyone who "violates traffic laws" by going off-course

Syril as Koopa Troopa vs. Cassian as Cat Peach -- cassian races his heart out trying to blow away the competition, not because the competition is syril (who?) but because he got stuck with cat peach. meanwhile syril sees this as the most important competition of his life and spends the whole race thinking he is blowing everyone (especially andor) away....only to be told when it ends that he was looking at the wrong side of the screen and has been racing backwards the whole time

Corv as Metal Mario vs. Blevin as Dry Bowser -- this is a frequent competition in the ISB break room. chairs have been broken. other officers steer clear of the hallway when these two go at it. they go back and forth all the time and are very evenly matched. blevin wins this time by a hair but gloats about it for weeks

Luthen as Dry Bones vs. Gorn as Larry -- both say they do not care. gorn means it. luthen ends up caring SO MUCH. he gets strategic and bitchy with the items and wins, but gorn does better than anyone expects and comes in second

Lonni as Pink Gold Peach vs. Perrin as Toadette -- a matchup of two very different dads. lonni is happy to get pink gold peach because he has his daughter on his lap and she likes it. he ends up giving his controller to her to chew on and doesn't finish the race. perrin is a stay-at-home dad and gamer husband who lives on monster energy drinks sipped from champagne flutes. he would've won easily even if lonni hadn't stopped halfway through

Timm as Lakitu vs. Vel as Bowser -- vel is a giant tomboy who grows up wanting to be a racer of any kind and this is the closest she will ever get to doing that. she murders timm who is really just a turd out there

Saw as Baby Rosalina vs. Eedy as Ludwig -- saw wants to quit halfway through because this is a waste of his time but he sees that the controller is too big for eedy's hands somehow and cruises to victory

Skeen as Bowser Jr. vs. Melshi as Baby Peach -- skeen insists they play on rainbow road. melshi agrees because he's an agreeable guy. skeen is just ahead of him for most of the race but it's very close. ultimately skeen can't handle the pressure and falls off the track at the last turn, leaving melshi a clear track to victory. skeen's remote ends up buried in the drywall

Kleya as Wario vs. Cinta as Shy Guy -- cinta has never cared about anything less in her life. kleya, despite protests to the contrary, cares so much. she is ruthless with the items and bullies her way to victory

Dedra as Daisy vs. Bee as Baby Mario -- dedra spends much of her time in the race overcorrecting on the turns because the controls are too touchy. ultimately it doesn't matter because bee's processor and battery are too old to help him win on such technology as the wii

Tay as Donkey Kong vs. Mon as Mario -- tay is very happy to be donkey kong but even happier that mon is mario because she is nervous and not very good at this but he tells her that mario has an advantage because it's his game. this gives her confidence enough to do well and even though he could beat her if he wanted to, he lets her have the much needed dub

[leagueofdccm]

//. BEFORE I GET TO WRITING-- i just wanted to chit-chat ( ALSO - GOOD MORNING MY BEAUTIFUL BABIES ♥ how are you lovely koopa troopas doing ~ ) okay so, butcher was def dying because our man kessler was letting him die, letting the disease eat him away til butcher would be nothing. he looked horrible... course, till after the whole ryan thing and tada -- good as fucking new !! Our boy kessler is a disease and the cure !! And makes me think how it might be like if he is involved with your muses-- OF COURSE THAT'S UP TO YOU cuz I did say he's also more real in my way of writing him ( not fully just part of being just imaginary ) -- but if you want him to be that deep in your muse, cause he is the devil himself and wants control, then we can go down that tainted path.

Mario Kart

Mario Kart, a very old spin off of the one of the main flagship titles starting all the way back in 1992 in late August titled “Super Mario Kart”. This was a unique entrée back in the day letting you drive as the brother Mario and Luigi, Princess Peach, Toad, Bowser, A random Koopa Troopa and Donkey Kong Jr for some reason. Housing Four different Cups/Tournaments labelled Star, Mushroom, Flower and Special respectively. It was released for the Super Nintendo Entertainment System or the SNES, it was a fun game with difficult controls and even crazier coding.

Let me give you an example, the term “Rubber Banding” is used when talking about the artificial intelligence of the enemies or the other drivers, it means that when you are far ahead, they will fly forward much faster than they are supposed to. This is for the player to constantly have a challenge during the race. But it was overdone, they are too fast and have many, MANY, more options than you to win, it’s like playing against a cheater and is very frustrating. As the first entrée that ill talk about, it's a solid game working with weaker hardware, 6/10. Now, I’ve not played all the Mario Karts, so I’m going to skip most hand held like for the DS, Game Boy, and for the 3Ds. The next on the list is Mario Kart 64, taking us into the third dimension visually and graphically.

With a few new characters like Wario (Replacing Koopa) and D.K replacing his dad from the first game. It’s pretty fun and I'm not going to go into the details to much, aside from touching the time trails and battle modes that are a constant throughout all the titles. Its cool and gives us a new feature, drifting, all tho we don’t get a boost it lets you take corners much faster and at better angles. 7/10 Now, i didn’t get the opportunity to play “Double Dash” but from most things I've seen it gives you the ability to switch your character to another one of your choosing, and they all have unique items that each have their own benefits. I can’t give my opinion, but I emplor you to play it and see for yourself. The one that I played the most growing up was definitely Mario Kart Wii (2008)

, with many more cups that previous games we have many more characters as with the insanely popular “Funky Kong” who is one of the new racers, I gotta say that this game rocks, from the music to the visuals and controls, it’s no questions the most popular game of the franchise. New cups and mods are being put into this game to this day, because it’s just so fun to play and the skill ceiling (How good you can get) is super high, a solid 9/10 cause there are a couple of small flaws, but let's move on to the last entrée I will talk about. Mario kart 8 Deluxe (2017)

is, at the moment, the last game of the series, with a kart customization, 96 cups with four tracks each, and over 40 racers that each behave differently on the tracks, new modes of transportation with the upside down gravity mode and the third level of boost called the Mega mini Turbo. The reason that I’m skipping the regular version is because it’s nothing better or different than this one, this one is just better. With more karts, characters, tracks, battle modes, tougher time trials ghosts and new Mii costumes it’s simple to see why. With all this said and done, it’s great, the tracks are stunning to look at, with neo Bowser City being one of the best examples to show this. Now with the booster pass coming out any day now it stands at an 8/10.

My Koopa Troop Headcannons

Lieutenant Jasper "Eyepatch" Koopa:

His real name is actually Jasper

Can dance the samba very well

Joined Bowser's army after the Koopa General saves him from a Boom Boom who was harassing him inside the tavern

Wears an eyepatch just because

Is almost as deranged as the Koopa General himself

Is in love with a beautiful crimson-shelled Koopa Troopa named Carmine Koopa and would love to meet her someday

Once had a childhood best friend named Penny Koopa

Then he lost her when he was 8-years-old and Penny died in his arms from tuberculosis on Christmas

Afterwards, he immediately lost interest in Christmas until one day when Carmine Koopa managed to help him heal from that pain, restoring his love for Christmas in her process

Koopa General:

Also known as "Blue Shell Koopa"

Is one of the most deranged Koopas of them all

His biological parents abandoned him as a hatchling

A certain female Rex adopted him afterwards (and trained him to be a deadly fighter before eventually having a change of heart)

She then ended up raising him as her own son

Lost his adoptive mother to a house-fire when he was a kid

Kamek and Bowser took him in (and in Kamek's case, raised him along with Bowser) after his adoptive mother's death

Is slowly falling in love with a beautiful lavender-shelled Koopa Paratroopa named Rebecca "Becky" Koopa (and vice-versa) after she nurses him back to health

Becky often calls him "Fly Boy", to which he calls her either "Becky" or "Beckers" in turn

Tends to wear dark blue silk pajamas to bed

Wishes to marry Becky someday

Is one of the only Koopas who loves Christmas

Cadet Verde Koopa:

Extremely shy

Is a very good cook

Enjoys playing with the Koopalings, especially Bowser Jr.

Tends to join Bowser's pity party whenever he sees Bowser (or Kamek or even Bowser Jr.) crying

That one green-shelled Koopa Troopa-turned-Dry Bones is actually his best friend

Sergeant Abriz Koopa:

The only gold-shelled Koopa Troopa in Bowser's army

Came from a wealthy family

However, he hated the rich life, which explains why he ran off to join Bowser's army

Loves Korean food and Mexican food

Literally hates clowns (and is even scared of them too)

Also hates Christmas because when he was younger, he rarely got any Christmas presents that he actually wanted

Commander Violet Koopa:

The only female Koopa Troopa in the army

Is not interested in Christmas

However, she came to Princess Peach's Christmas party one time because of Bowser's plan to crash Princess Peach's Christmas party

Secretly has a crush on the certain Koopa guitarist, but is too shy to even admit it
