#SHOW US WADAISY NINTENDO!!! WHERE IS SHE

[kaaramel]

pearasect replied to your post “is there anyone here who doesn’t know what i’m referring to when i say...”

I have no idea what you're talking about but I'm very interested, please explain this theory

hoo hoo hoo you’ve fallen into my TRAP because i really liked Flatland and therefore i’m going to explain dimensional theory to you, with DIAGRAMS, and MARIO CHARACTERS

we start simple with the zeroth dimension: mario

when standing alone mario is a single point, a unique location but little else

by introducing a second point we can draw a line between them and enter the first dimension: his brother, luigi

luigi is family, of course, and therefore resembles his sibling - a slightly distorted exaggeration of his features, with his own personality traits.

this one-dimensional diagram has a length and nothing else; we can introduce another dimension, width, and enter a new state

wario and later waluigi are villainous mirror-reflections of the mario bros, exaggerating their features further to the point of gross caricature. we now have a two-dimensional square and so far the points are all stable. waluigi in particular has no connection to ANYTHING except to exist as the far corner of this reflection-square: he seems to have no familial connection to wario, and has only rarely been seen perpetuating evil schemes of his own. wario’s name and emblm are at least a logical inversion of mario’s M - waluigi has an upside-down L on his forehead for pete’s sake.

it starts getting weird for the mario universe when we introduce another set of points.

we have entered the third dimension, with length, width, and height, by introducing princesses. classically, mario and peach are considered equivalents: the template, the ur-example of their kind. i don’t know how strongly game canon acknowledges this but fan convention usually pairs daisy and luigi together, the second-fiddle palette swaps; but, the theory goes, our cube is now unstable and has two missing points. who and where are the villainous wapeach and wadaisy? 

(i’m not sure how old this line of argument is or if rosalina had entered general mario canon at that point, so i don’t know where she figures into this diagram, but as she isn’t particularly villainous i don’t think she qualifies; she simply exists elsewhere on the Princess Plane. while doing research for this i found out that warioland villain captain syrup might actually fill the role of wapeach, but this still leaves wadaisy a mystery.)

here is where the theory as it is generally presented ends, but if princesses are viable, i’d like to take it a step further and bring it into the FOURTH DIMENSION. 

i would like to posit the Nemesis Plane - proposed linkages Mario-DK, Peach-Bowser, Luigi-King Boo, and Daisy:friggin’ Tatanga. it’s the space alien who kidnapped her, whatever, super mario land was weird. 

as you can see the fourth dimension is difficult to visualize - even the three-dimensional cube I drew was forced to be depicted as a two-dimensional trick of perspective since this is a two-dimensional medium. a hypercube has length, width, height, and another property entirely which would theoretically be at right angles to all other properties - impossible to accurately recreate in our three-dimensional universe. instabilities multiply - does Waluigi secretly have a recurring foe somewhere between all the tennis matches, go-karting, and soccer games he’s appeared in? does the hypothetical wadaisy have a MORTAL ENEMY?

is there a Mount direction, spinning off from the Mario-Yoshi linkage? all i can think of to co-inhabit that plane is Birdo, who has no clear equivalency elsewhere in this diagram that I can think of... IT’S ENDLESS. 

most of these character icons came from spriter’s resource, by the by, so credit for providing those goes to submitter... (squints) random talking bush. thanks
