Yeah, but Peach's entire purpose in that game was to undo that curse. That's why Bowser kidnaps her. Plus, not all of the bricks in that game are Toads. The instruction booklet clearly states that when you find a transformed toad, they reward you with a power-up.

Kinda funny how matpat has flipped our views on the 2 kingdoms, I now realize that bowser is altogether a better and more caring ruler, would it be better if he *did* take over peachs kingdom?

[@weirdst_]

I know this is old, but, if Bowser did take over Peach's kingdom, he would definitely be a better ruler. As we see in another of Matpat's theory, Peach is actually a queen of a mushroom infection that kicked the gumbas (?) out of their kingdom. That's right, Peach's kingdom was actually the Gumbas' (?). Anyway! By taking over "Peach's" kingdom, Bowser is helping the Gumbas (?) get their kingdom back, while also giving his children a mother (and a full family) he didn't get himself. I cannot link the video, but search it up and you'll understand more. TL;DR - Bowser would, yes, make a better ruler then Peach, since she is a thief of kingdoms. She'd also make a mother for Bowser's children because he didn't get a family himself.

i always thought Mario was just providing what was currently missing. quote:"we went OVER BUDGED and RAN OUT of stone for the stairs". which mean that there was already a budged and amount of stone put into it and Mario only has to provide a fraction of what is actually put into it. that would mean we don't actually know how many coins were actually spent on it.

[@evelynserrano460]

Yeah smart dude

[@elisa.r.g]

[@danemr6808]

Problem with that theory is that no work is done until mario provides the funds. If they had most of the money and stuff you'd think they'd do what they could on their own.

[@thereisnoneedtocallmesir]

@Danemr Reschke Not really, there are a notable amount of things in construction that need to be fully done within a certain timeframe or that show it when it was done by different people or at different moments

[@kaburii9807]

Technically true, though for matters like the stained glass window, I'm not sure if they already had a part of the funds for it. I haven't played the game myself, so correct me if I'm wrong there. If they didn't already have any funds for the stained glass window, then the comparison of real world money to coins would still be more or less accurate. Even if some things in the game that you pay for, like the foundation, still had what were NEARLY the appropriate funds, it certainly doesn't discredit the fact that the toad workers are treated horribly, with negligence and incompetent leadership. Anywho. That's just my two coins on the matter.

@@maybe_ant7698 That actually makes a lot of sense. If all the labour of mining for brick materials can be reduced to just getting one guy to conjure bricks, the cost of bricks would be way less. And, of course, Koopas can turn things into bricks according to the first game, so maybe they've poofed a few into the economy as well. Though in that case, they'd probably be (former?) sentient beings...
