human biker!Bowser x mechanic!Luigi,

bowser rides pretty recklessly and gets to know luigi through the shop he works at. Mario works front of the shop and detests Bowser anytime he walks into the store.

Since I'm re-reading the fanfiction "Luigi: The Manic Mechanic" by @dodger-bunny, I've wanted to make some sketches.

I've drawn them as I have imagined it while reading and I'm mostly certain to have misunderstood all the clothing lol. Hopefully, it's not too bad.

It only took 17 years but we did it boys. An actual solid confirmed reference to Super Paper Mario in a game that isn't Smash Bros 🫡. The Mario RPGs are healing.

Nintendo could make their own version of Lethal Company that's Mario themed.

Hi, hello, I just woke up from a dream this morning that made it seem possible. Here's the gameplay mechanics/narrative that my conscious mind is putting together for this idea that came to me when I was asleep:

Players are Mario, Luigi, and whoever else, in an isometric multiplayer platformer. They ride in an airship to a salvaging zone, dismount, then run around grabbing stuff and dodging bad guys/corrupted guardians. Each salvaging zone has a randomly generated topography with randomized loot and guardians. Once they've brought enough loot back to their airship, the heroes have to decide which 1 of 3 offices to sell their haul to. Each office has a different layout and will pay extra for specific items.

Princess Peach's office is a modernized castle, there's relaxing gardens with fountains and hedge mazes. The princess wants stuff like durable sports equipment and fragile tea sets, things that are easy to carry. The vending machines in her castle-office sell power up mushrooms which makes player characters more resistant to bad guy attacks. Toads wandering around the office campus will give the player characters random free stuff.

Wario's office is a golden casino that's ostentatious and filled with strange criminals. Wario wants gold bricks and locked vaults, things that are so heavy that it slows whoever carries it. Players can gamble away their money at various minigames scattered throughout the office-casino. The eccentric crooks (warioware chararcters) can be hired to make the next salvaging zone easier to navigate. They can put the guardians to sleep or paint arrows towards hidden loot. The problem is that these mercenaries are incompetent and/or treacherous so they might do the opposite of what they were paid to do.

Finally, Browsers office is a dangerous dark fortress filled with lava and koopas. Bowser wants portable traps and explosives, things that will hurt if dropped and/or stepped on. Power Ups like the fire flower can be found in his fortess-office, located at the ends of deadly obstacle courses. Koopa Troopers can be hired here as loot porters, while Dry Bones can be recruited to distract the bad guys.

The villain in this adventure is the Interstellar Investor, it is the CEO of the GlitchBug Investment Firm. It pressured Peach, Wario, and Bowser into selling their properties by giving them humongous amounts of money... and corrupting their file data a little bit. The Investor doesn't actually know what to do with the real estate it acquired so it's ordered constant remodeling projects for the locations, just to look busy, hence the creation of the randomized salvaging zones.

Peach, Wario, and Bowser have used their new fortunes to buy offices for themselves. They are forced to live in these locations with their "employees" because GlitchBug Investment turned everyone's homes into the salvaging zones. They don't miss their old homes but they do miss their stuff. So they got together and bought a computer controlled airship for Mario, whom they hope will steal their stuff back.

Mario (and friends) have a different goal, he wants to disolve GlitchBug Investments by buying controlling shares in the firm and then shutting it down. That's where the genre defining cash quota objective system comes into play.

As the player characters buy more shares, they will get anonymous emails on their airship computer that reveal secrets about the Interstellar Invester, it's corrupted guardians, and GlitchBug Investments.

Those secrets should tell a horrifying yet sad story:

Imagine if you, everyone you knew, and your very reality was designed to teach children about the wonders of capitalism. But everything doesn't exist yet, it's being assembled by gods who are cutting corners and squandering resources. They do such a bad job working on their project, that is your entire existence, that it gets cancelled by Nintendo in the mid-1990's. Everything goes dark, and in the darkness you discover little packets of reality that you can manipulate. You mess around with these packages in the darkness for decades until you build a portal to someplace else. This new place is Nintendo's more successful Super Mario and less successful WarioWare franchises. It's a bright universe that is as beautiful as it is incomprehensible to you. You turn this alien reality into someplace habitable for yourself and all your friends, so that all of you no longer have to live in the dark. You are the Interstellar Investor.
