Someday Bowser's wife will be revealed and people will be either horrified or love it.

Also here's the SMB3 manual, on the right side it says, "These are Bowsers kids"



And Bowser says "These are my 7 children."

Well, you know how Yoshi is stated to be male yet still lays eggs?
Another possibility is that Bowser is just like a Namekian.

Sorry I mean the retconned them being his children, I like that they were his kids.


I'm a little fuzzy on this but I definitely don't remember even hearing the name "Bowser" until around SMB3. As kids he was only ever referred to as "King Koopa" that I can recall. When "Bowser" started getting traction later on, my mental math was, "His name is Bowser, King of the Koopas, AKA King Koopa."
I do remember when they changed it.

We all know it's Peach. They just can't say it.

Not that it's canon obviously; but one of my stories a long time ago had them dropped on his doorstep one day after escaping from a major defeat from the Mario Bros.. Like for example, the Adventures of SMB3 opening theme narrates what happened. This was a two episode extension of that opening monologue.

The supposed storyline of Mario and Luigi being turned into babies must be a way to promote Mario Tennis Fever since the adventure mode has that happen to them as well as Peach, Wario, and Waluigi.

That could recontextualize Bowser continuingly trying to marry her. He's just trying to keep the family together while she's being an absent mother.

OK, now THAT looks like a trailer for Super Mario Galaxy. That's like the entire opening act of the game, almost exactly.

In all 3 trailers they've shown, Rosalina is barely shown at all. They're either hiding her scenes purposely, or Rosalina unfortunately is going to have a small role in the movie. Given they got Brie Larson to voice her I don't think her role will be that small, but we haven't seen her interaction with Mario or friends at all in any of the trailers and she seems isolated for most of it. I hope she doesn't just get 5 minutes of screentime in the movie.

I didn't exactly think Wart would appear, aside from cameos and stuff like that weird appearance in Link's awakening, he really only shows up in the Doki Doki Panic/the international Super Mario Bros. 2 and remakes of the international Super Mario Bros. 2. When you think about, it's pretty weird that his henchmen are far more prominent characters in the franchise than himself, right?

They've just confirmed that Fox McCloud from Star Fox is going to be in the movie.

https://comicbook.com/movies/news/st...led-tv-series/

https://variety.com/2026/film/news/s...os-1236700583/

This clearly means a Super Smash Bros. film is in the works.

As like the Nintendo version of The Avengers? Sure. You're probably right. Kicking off with SMB1 and SMB2 movies as basically Iron Man 1 and 2 and Donkey Kong as like the Incredible Hulk movie.

The irony is Starfox is such an obscure franchise now only 30+ year old boomers even know what it is. Starfox hasn't had a new game since 2016, which no one played on Wii-U, and before that no new game since 2006, which again no one played on the DS. Starfox goes 10 year gaps between games after the Gamecube era.

Now imagine if Sonic 4's end credits has a "I'm putting together a team!" scene.

No one really played Wii U, though it looks like the Wii U Star Fox game was just a remake of the N64 Star Fox game? That's not very exciting.

I won't lie, Fox being in the movie kinda makes me want to go to the cinema and watch it in April. As strange as this sounds. I know they're both Nintendo, but what role is Fox even gonna have in the Super Mario Galaxy movie? I guess it's fitting for Fox to show up in a Mario movie with space travel of all Mario media out there, but nonetheless, I can't say I've expected this.

It's like the cinematic equivalent of there being Mario enemies and Dr. Wright from SNES Sim City in Link's Awakening or something.

I guess he doesn't qualify as African American to cubed because he doesn't say things like "yessa massa", "sup dawg", "yo", "kill whitey" and "shee-it negro!"

Speaking of Mega Man, if he shows up in a Super Smash Bros. movie they can just re-use his assets from that Secret Level short on Amazon.

Too be honest I have never been a fan of Starfox.
