It’s insane to look back and know that THIS was the first ever game theory I ever watched, I found it while watching KZbin on my school computer six years ago. Ever since then I’ve watched these videos on and off. Man I love this channel so much, this will forever be my favorite Game theory.

[@BlueKirby808]

the first game theories I ever watched were the "how deadly are bob-ombs?" and "what is a Kirby?" theories

The Stages of watching Game Theory: 1. This looks interesting 2. C'mon MatPat thats a bit farfetched. 3. Well that kinda makes sense I guess 4. Oh my God 5. Aww fuck, there goes my childhood

[@jbfelix9118]

or, like this, (steps 1-3 are the same for me) step 4: umm... that's a bit freaky step 5: HOLY **** step 6: I'm now scared of (whatever he was talking about) step 7: I'll never look at (whatever he was talking about) the same again step 8: close the video and say, (in this case) I am now afraid of (something freaky he said in the video.) in this case: I'm now afraid of mushrooms or is it just me?

[@Prythin]

Remove steps 3-5 and that's the true stages of watching game theory.

[@leurunner4764]

Only one thing to correct. Peach didn't bring them there. She was raised by them, more specificly toadsworth. Therefore she oly inherited her position.

[@phoenix2911]

jesus wtf thought matt pat was the crazy one

[@bettyunicorn6132]

The toads killed her parents and taodsworth is the true villain

[@slevinchannel7589]

Bought there from where? And why? And when? And how? We seriously need more Infos about the simpliest Common Sense of that World!!

[@digstrememcdingus1463]

What if the mushrooms toads are descended from killed most of the people but inherited their sentience, which lead toadsworth to adopt Peach, since she was immune, perhaps that's why Bowser and most of the cast seem to be orphans, their Parents succumb to the spores. But hey that's just a thunker a game thunker

[@randomppl6380]

That links to the video: The END of Princess Peach

[@creeperkinght1144]

funny because there is a poisonous purple mushroom in the Mario Verse, originally from the Lost Levels.

[@mushroomdude123]

So just to clarify: -Mario is a communist, womanizing, abusive psychopath. -Bowser's actually the good guy. -Peach also has mental issues. -Luigi and Peach get married and have Rosalina as their child. -And now, Toads are evil, paracitic zombies created by Peach. Wow.....never thought someone could ruin a seemingly innocent franchice _that_ hard. *Slow claps* Good job, Matt.

So mario isn't a pshichopath, he is truly a hero

[@cashagon]

But Bowser turned them into blocks to stop the spread of fungi. Mario is breaking the blocks, thus releasing more spores. Sooo, Mario is still the bad guy.

[@sebybab6579]

@@cashagon probably mario isn't making the fungi spread. It was neutralised and turned into a brick totally. Mario is just clearing the path for more bricks. Maybe...

Something you didn't mention, but could have: The 1-Up mushrooms. Maybe they're not giving him an extra life, but rather using the mycelium to read his genetic code, then create a new Mario body, so if the old one dies, the new one is ready to go, having no knowledge that he's a plant-based clone

[@AnOrdinaryDuck]

Charles Lee O_O that makes so much sense

[@rjay2886]

The DinoMiner I thought the same thing

[@mr.slugbutt3126]

+charleslee ok i agree with you but one thing wrong with this video Did you guess yet?no In this theory he says that the goombas are mushrooms but WAIT!he said in another mario theory that goombas are toadstools and that they were turned into goombas so i want an explanation

[@ddvalentine1048]

***** Bowser did not turned or wanted to turn the Goombas into bricks. He wants to turn the Toads into brick and stuff to help the Goombas get their kingdom back. Mario and Luigi are not infected for the same reason Peach isn't. They work for Peach. They are like ...her body guards or something. Think of the fact that Toad's are mostly useless in a fight so if Bowser comes to get her the Toads can't 'save her' ; so she need someone around for that job who is not infected or even immune like these brothers seemed to be.

[@Tracequaza]

The reason he didn't mention it is because mycelia doesn't have that effect. If there was evidence of that irl then he would've probably included it. Also mushrooms are fungi, you said plant-based.

To this day, my favourite Game Theory. It opens up so many possibilities. For example: in Minecraft, there is a block called mycelium which is what you were talking about in the video. That block is only found on extremely rare ‘mushroom islands’ where the ground is made exclusively out of mycelium. The mycelium has killed almost everything on the island. There is no grass (just mushrooms and mycelium) no trees (just giant mushrooms, possibly to spread spores further so the mushroom plague can escape the island) no animals (except one, I’ll get to that later) and even hostile mobs, which spawn EVERYWHERE in Minecraft, don’t spawn on the mushroom island. Almost like all life has been hunted to extinction by the super-mycelium. Earlier on I mention that one living thing that at first seems separate from the mycelium: The mooshroom. The mooshroom is a creature that resembles a cow but red, covered in red mushrooms and all black eyes (all white eyes are often a symbol of being mind controlled or possessed in pop culture and the eyes, although black instead of white, are references to that). These cows are actually, like the toads and the ants, hosts for the mycelium. The mushrooms appear almost entirely on the uppermost of the back and head, exactly where it is in ants and the toads. The red skin I think isn’t actually skin but a thin layer of red mycelium that covers the entire cows body, slowly dropping spores as the mooshroom moves, spreading the spores. If the mooshroom is splayed the spores will then go up into the air spreading even more spores. You might notice that this idea of a creature which is a plant/fungi spreading spores/seeds and releasing lots upon death in Minecraft is similar to the first Minecraft theory on this channel: The Creeper is a plant. I have ideas on what links the mushroom islands and the creeper as well as how the super-mycelium is travelling between games, why it’s travelling between games, how hero brine links into all of this and Notch’s dark past that he’s kept from us this whole time and why he sold the game to Microsoft. I might do some videos on this theory I’ve had for a while now. What is in this comment is a theory but after that most of it is a hypothesis so I might make a new channel called: Game Hypothesis! Not sure if it would catch on though...

[@francisgellwick3887]

[@jordanbowers4509]

OMG YOU ARE RIGHT

[@BraydenTMG]

XDJumpstart_YT Thanks! I’m wondering how far the mushroom plague has spread along on other games. On another game theory matpat said that creepers are releasing spores when they explode (like mushrooms release spores) and think of another game when creeper releases spores... Creeper World! Is the creeper the mushroom plague?

[@nocx4592]

But, mooshroms don't infect thing, and you can easily change them into normal cows by cutting off the mushrooms with shears.

[@suggestedtigerr1151]

[@SkyArmyGeneral100]

ITS JUST A THEORY

[@mychemicalklance4991]

This will always be my favorite theory on the Mario franchise

[@mikehunt4618]

Now THAT would be a Mario game I would wonna play. Just imagine, Peach betrays Mario and leaves him half dead in a middle of nowhere after gaining enough power to take over Bowser's kingdom. Then Bowser saves Mario and tells him what was really going on the entire time, so they join forces to take down Mushroom kingdom once and for all. Peach would be the final boss and Mario could get a black magic power up by the koopa mages. It would be so AMAZING!!

[@Deman_Dema]

No no, It most likely that Mario mind was too damage by eating (May be forced at first) too mush poison mushrooms. Look at the mushrooms he normally eat to power up, that is a poison mushrooms. He was too delusion, he see everything as happy and child like, and he can't really talk anymore. Bowser much find a way to cure Mario, to make him see the reality and free from Peach control. And the game in reality could turn out to be dark and hard core looking lol

[@danieljaworski7239]

Deman Dema dude, it would be like Nintendo's own Matrix o.O Awesome =D

[@lildwell2]

Deman Dema You also would have to remember that Peach was truly in love with Luigi which lead to him and Peach creating Rosalina. So, I'm guessing that Mario is to much of a glory hogging sociopath to realize that Luigi and Peach are using him as a pawn to keep the Mushroom Kingdom powerful. After you beat Peach as the final boss it is revealed that she was just a pawn for Luigi. But that would mean we would need to make another game.

[@mikehunt4618]

DAVID But plot twist! Mario is actually Luigi's clone he created to infiltrate Bowser's kingdom to steal an artifact that is the only thing capable of slaying the demon possesing Peach, but it's usage was so risky that Bowser split it into 5 pieces and hid it across the land. Now Mario has to ask help of Link, the only survivor of Kukuri village massacre ordered by Peach and executed by Zelda. Ganon on the other hand is a good guy who was sealed by Peach long ago with Vaati for rebeling against her Mushroom dictatorship, They led a rebellion that ended with them being captured, but ultimately reseting the mushroom civilisation's progress with a surge of triforce. Damn that would be awesome.

[@ReptarTheUgly]

Instead of mario being a clone luigi could actually be a badass. He's just putting up a front, and is working for bowser. Waiting for his chance to strike and then he tries and mario is like wtf. Mario becomes a minion to peach and luigi and bowser team up to SAVE THE WORLD.

[@zoroarkmi2027]

Honestly, I think, at this point, peach, Toad, Yoshi, Luigi, and (obviously) Mario, have all gotten their own games where they are the protagonist. Why not Bowser? I mean, we've seen him join your side in the Paper Mario games, why can't the king of the Koopas get his own game?

[@evolvedaardvark276]

We need a game where YOU (the player) are bowser.

[@triforcelogik8810]

I like the Bad Guys mor than the Heroes.I mean Mario is some Guy that loves the Princess or something but Bowser is a powerful Beast with a Kingdom. That´s so much cooler than Mario!

[@typemasters2871]

so, let me get this straght. mushroom kingdom is invaded by peach and the toads, goombas (like gaijin goomba and lonely) ask for bowser's help, he repurposed the toads to become more safe and steals peach because he fancies her, they become friends wilst mario (after torchering Donkey Kong and his baby) kills and destroys everything in his path and resuces peach but before they leave everyone becomes friends, after a long time of mario being mean and evil, peach having fun with bowser wilst pretending to be indanger and bowser just trying to rule the world (as well as have a son somehow), peach finally settles down with luigi and have rosalina, peach dies, rosalina runs away and with the help of bowser and mario restarts the universe (well, to the part just after the first ever adventure)

[@typemasters2871]

or basicallymario: mad man.peach: loves to have a good time (if you know what i mean) being the ruler of her own creation.Bowser: loves peach, protector for the goombas, raises a son by himself (and want peach to be his mother, which kind of makes scence now) and just wants power.and apart from luigi being rosalina's father and the toads being humanoid mushrooms everyone else in the mario crew seems to be the same as we seem them as (so far at least)........ i'm going back to pokemon, it may have huge lore but not as many twists as mario does.
