The history of the Pianta at the start of the original Coconut Mall. He used to point to the escalator that was going up, but was murdered and not replaced for Mario Kart 7, 8 Deluxe, or Tour. Except he actually DID appear in the TRAILER for the Booster Course Pass.

[@viran8783]

The connections between stages in Sonic Adventure 2 (i.e. characters having shared level themes, not limited to characters of the same gameplay type)

[@bsharpmajorscale]

And sometimes the theme is slightly different, like with Knuckles and Rouge. Side note: the lack of loading zones in them versus having them in the first game is neat.

[@randomd2146]

I like the Idea

[@Kosmicd12]

My vid suggestion is if you could add any new powerup into a mario game, what would it be!

[@robertm5110]

Hey it’s the best Super Mario Bros runner! (This is not my video idea. Just wanted to say hi to Kosmic on here 😁)

[@piranhalettuce]

It would be cool if we got more power up’s based on enemies like Monty Moles or Blooper’s. The Monty Mole suit would make it so you can dig underground and jump out of the ground (similar to Drill Kirby) and the Blooper Suit would make it so you can swim faster and shoot out ink that stuns enemies.

[@Firebal_]

@@piranhalettuce we havent gotten a powerup like this since the boomerang flower, would be nice to get more powerups with this idea in mind

[@Hunger04]

Here’s a weird one: the history of Mario kart stats! Anything from charcter’s weights to the ability to see individual kart stats, I’d be interested to see what’s changed over their introduction, and how they can work courses around it! Love your content man, keep up the fantastic work!

[@jurbishjurb]

Dude, June Zoom has been an absolute blast so far! Also, for the whole idea part I believe a small analysis on why Shadow's story in SA2 was so great would be awesome.

[@Hadaron]

Talk about a game you’ve always wanted to gush about but never really found a way to do so, whether due to the game’s obscurity or the inability to figure out how to phrase it, or any other reason. You have a passion for the little details that I’ve never noticed before and seeing you so enthusiastic about the little things in games I’ve played dozens of times but never noticed always makes me smile. Thanks, ZoomZike!

[@SNEV7]

This might be an odd thing to suggest to most people, but I would really love to see a level analysis of a level from Sonic 06. Despite all the jank that game has, the level design in the game is actually really good.

[@AFoxOnTheInternet]

A Tier list / analysis on all of the Mario & Luigi Bros moves (Animation, amount of damage, Usability, Quicktime button presses, ect,) Loving the June Zoom!! 😄Mad props for the amount of content you made this month!

[@ZacksShack.mp4]

Rating every mario party dice block ever by how satisfying it is to hit, or by how good it looks!! Love your identifying luck series, easily my favorite thing to watch on KZbin, never stop what you’re doing gamer man :)

[@BadShrimp]

i'm hoping this is part of it

[@Anaklusmos42]

Mario Party Advance gotta show up !

[@luginess0]

Zack! I remember you from like 5 years ago. How are you?

[@romansrevengethethirdstrik8086]

The objectively best character in every mario party game, counting every small advantage they may get. From larger hitboxes in some minigames to special character related events to avoiding certain enemy AI by having that character

[@randaljr.8581]

i thought this too! good one

[@globingoblin]

Mario Party characters all have the same hitbox during minigames, so it boils down to special dice

[@Lukeplayer001]

If you could create your own Mario party game, what would it look like? What boards, what characters and what mini-games would you include? The June Zoom is great so far, I liked every single video so far, keep on the good work!

[@celerity910]

My idea is "The Many Routes of The Goopy Inferno", where you analyze all the possible methods of beating the third mission of Pianta Village in Super Mario Sunshine. I think it would be interesting because of just how many ways there are to beat the level, it's one of the most open-ended, if not the most, in the game.

[@globingoblin]

The Mario Kart track where you'd like to live in the most, including background decorations. Maybe you think the Wild Woods village seems cozy? How about the city in Toad Harbor? Or you'd rather have a permanent vacation on Daisy's Cruise Ship? So many options!

[@nickk3077]

There’s that level in the DS that seems nice to live in, the one with the Piantas.

[@cjreuter]

I really like the idea behind your Definitive Mario Kart video you did a (very) long time ago. It’d be awesome to see something like that where you pull ideas from different games, but this time for Mario Party! Like which Chance Time system you like the best, which items/ item system, or maybe even some boards and minigames. Zikey Zoom’s Definitive Mario Party!

[@Lykrast]

I LOVE the Identifying Luck and really like the Zikedowns, and also I love rankings silly stuff very seriously. So idea: ranking the mario party series boards by how good of a place to live they'd be. I know at least the MP8 tycoon town has people living there, so that's at least one.

[@Zepeup]

I’d really like some speculation on who is reading/making the books that contain the Paper Mario series. The first 3 games begin with a book opening narration, and in the Paper Jam crossover with the Mario and Luigi series we see that the at least one of the Paper Mario worlds is canonically contained within these types of books. So who in the Mario World is making these books?

[@Supersonicblue1027]

Paper jam if you play long enough actually has a part where Luigi straight up remembers that he wrote the book as a birthday gift for Peach but as the events of paper jam play out it's clear the book is magical and continued writing itself after Luigi wrote the orginal N64 title that's why when it fell all the characters came out of the book.

[@670839245]

Do a June Zoom Recap. Share any interesting things behind the scene, like how you come up with ideas, whether you run into difficulties and/or challenges and how you coped with them.

[@kebbe2276]

How super smash bros brawl destroyed Wario as a character and turned him into a fart joke.

[@Jamal-wk5ip]

Yeah Wario from Wario Land Shake It and Brawl essentially two separate charters

[@weirdox5007]

Ranking the height of the jump from various Nintendo characters, maybe including real world measurements and scale to see how crazy, or under whelming, it gets! Also well done with June Zoom this year, I'm enjoying the videos even more than last time, and your energy is quite infectious.

[@labproductions06]

a short and sweet bit of the Crazy Taxi 1 map’s atmosphere is something i’d love to hear talked about. the music, real brands, sounds, etc all bringing it to life is something that goes under appreciated in my opinion

[@reyaswilfred2228]

I'd love a video on Cooking systems in non-cooking-centric video games (especially the paper mario series)

[@randaljr.8581]

paper mario anything!! cooking is good, since he likes food videos recently =D

[@fancyplayer7665]

I remember you mentioning the fruit of grisaia at some point and I thought it would be nice to see you comment and dissect the themes that each of the routes try to approach. Thanks for the all the amazing content this month!

[@nawakening370]

Doing a Brawl Tier list based on how epic the characters are in the subspace emisary

[@nerdygal-]

Probably one of my favorite video ideas was the "Every Race I Play Adds A New Code" video, and I'd like to see that style of video return, but with a new game! Maybe a different Mario kart or even a new game entirely but with the same concept. Good luck with the rest of June Zoom!

[@GamerTowerDX]

I honestly been wanting someone to take a peek at one of their favorite Nintendo Directs in an analytical way,to see it in retrospective or talking about how they felt about it at the time,go nuts with it! Im legit curious how you would tackle the subject.

[@guanbarretto2305]

I would love to hear your thoughts on what you'd want out of a third Super Mario Galaxy and what you would expect from it if it were to ever happen! Or if you don't want it to happen, why it would be a bad idea. I love your videos, it's been fun watching over the years!

[@ABHyt]

Firstly, this is the first June zoom I've seen and I've come to love it. Especially since it's in my birthday month. To the idea, a video discussing the temporal paradoxes in Mario and Luigi Parterns in time.

[@keeganmoore99]

Going over the designs of levels in Kid Icarus Uprising in a similar manner to how you've done SA2 and NSMB. Either a few stages that stand out to you, or a few fun details or philosophies the devs may have had for certain decisions on each stage. Those videos are my favorite, so seeing even more would be amazing.

[@KrazyKaramel]

A breakdown of the Comet Observatory, appreciating the atmosphere and discussing all of the terraces aesthetically.

[@jmaldonado790]

Didn’t he do this one already?

[@cecillewolters1995]

He has done this one in a previous June Zoom, enjoy watching it ;)

[@GamecubeGeek]

Hey, month has sucked cause I got covid but otherwise it's been alright. My idea is: Studying the biology of Isle Delfino enemy variants. Like how did the Stu family evolve from goombas? Electrokoopas? Which Piranha plant species would Petey have most likely descended from? It would be interesting to hear your take on why exactly these enemies have strategically adapted to their environment in ways that make them so unique from their ancestors.

[@nameske396]

Ok, i’ve given it some thought and i think a great suggestion would be an analysis on Mario Party 8’s Koopa Tycoon Town. I know you’ll probably end up talking about it in depth in a couple months anyway but it still seems like it would be cool to see, considering it’s one of the coolest boards in the series. Anyway good luck with the rest of June Zoom 3 and have a wonderful day!

[@evangelos4346]

I don't have any June Zoom ideas, I just wanted to say that I love your NSMB DS "Zikedown" videos, and can't wait for World 7/8!

[@aurafox1]

Talk about the most terrifying enemies from your childhood, preferably weirdly specific ones that aren't so scary for adults.

[@owenbutitsthesequel]

I loved the Mario Kart track analysis's you did! One of my favorite parts were the short moments that you talked about how you can see certain tracks in other courses like daisy's ship appearing on peach Beach. It would be really cool if you could try to connect all courses with each other somehow!

[@conkerforlife]

I would love to see you talk about your favorite mario kart battle track. whether it's based on aesthetics, the layout, or how they spice up the battle track as time goes on

[@Jess-I-Guess]

You've been doing a lot of Sonic Adventure Chao content this Zoom, that got me wanting an "Identifying Luck" type video analyzing the different Chao events, namely Chao Karate and Chao Race from Adventure 1 and 2, possibly comparing different versions in 1 and 2 (as well as between the GC and Dreamcast versions, if there are differences). I have no idea if that'd be not a lot or way too much to cover, but I'd be interested to see it!

[@freshairsnipe6592]

Honestly, I kinda wanna see a tier list of a bunch of characters from your childhood games or games that you cover now. This sounds stupid honestly because trying to pit mario against sonic is something people have done for years and have always failed, but seeing alpharad's video on ranking every single pokemon makes me want to see how normal characters are seen when put against other games.

[@briansilva3344]

Newest channel I’m subscribed to, and have been on a binge ever since. Love all of the level design videos, especially Sonic stages (Crazy Gadget’s my favorite because of how crazy the stage is). IDEA: level design critique of Shadow the Hedgehog’s Westopolis level (opening level)

[@thomassinger5629]

The Sonic Adventure 2 level select screen is pretty interesting, it helps bring the world together. Although not as much as the adventure 1 hub worlds did, but it would be nice for a small analysis of that level select screen :)

[@andrewchapman2039]

I'd love to see you cover a game outside of your usual remit, something like Kerbal Space Program. Every game deserves your unique brand of overly enthusiastic overanalysis! Loving the content this month and every month, really is amazing!

[@Kagresth]

It would be interesting to hear which level in SA2 was your least favorite, and why.

[@shieldon530]

it’s be interesting to see your take on mario & sonic at the olympic games. whether you decide to follow a specific event through iterations, the details in specific animations/characters/stadiums, or anything like that. M&S@OG was always one of those series i wish i had as a kid, and even now that i’m 22 i still kinda wish i had one of them lol. also, i just saw your community post about your arm. sending my best wishes your way, hope you recover Zike ❤️

[@kirbpliss9729]

With your video on how the Super Mario Sunshine goop tastes, it made me think of what other Mario series items would taste like. Such as all the different types of mushrooms, the multitude of items across the RPGs, and whatever else across the series. Also, the June Zoom has been goin great!! :)

[@thefollower2933]

This is an incredibly stupid idea, but I'd love if you had a video comparing the designs of mario enemies, like comparing how koopas or twomps look from game to game and trying to find a canonical reason for why that is.

[@TheBlueWizzrobe]

Tick Tock Clock is one of my favorite Mario Kart courses in the series, but as far as I can think of, it's the only track that explicitly takes place in a level from a mainline Mario game. I feel like the fact that they haven't done this more is a huge missed opportunity, so I want to know what level(s) from previous mainline Mario games you'd want to see reinterpreted as Mario Kart race tracks. Or if you want to get really wild, maybe even talk about a location from a spin-off, such as a Mario Party board perhaps? Or a location in the Paper Mario series even? I just feel like there are so many cool possibilities that Nintendo ignores! EDIT: Okay, so I just looked through some of your older videos I hadn't seen before and found that apparently you already basically did this in your Definitive Mario Kart video, but it says "Slightly Outdated" in the title, so I guess I'll just let you use this as an opportunity to update your opinions on that if you want! Or just talk about ones that didn't quite make the cut since I'm sure there were some.

[@denzeltheeternalunderstudy2858]

A video on Paper Mario party members. Could be a great showcase of what made them so special and how the newer games aren't the same without some extra company. I still love Paper Mario with all my heart and you've made some banger Paper Mario videos, so hoping this could be another banger. Good luck for the rest of June.

[@bendybrendan4895]

I think it’d be cool to see a video about who your favorite Mario series character is and why. Mario is a big part of your channel (for obvious reasons) so it’d be neat to get more of your perspective on the series through your favorite character!

[@thewarpipe6368]

Here's something I have been wondering about... As most know by now, the game known as Mario Maker along with it's sequel satisfies the wishes of those who dreamt to create and design their own levels and worlds in the Mario franchise. However, a problem has emerged for some fans. (Including me.) Where does 2D Mario go from here? It seems that we have peaked in terms of community and creativity, which is concerning when thinking about future entries. How will it improve, if ever beyond a few tweaks? I fear that the formula will grow stale no matter what changes. I would like to hear your take on the subject, Zoom. Is 2D Mario over? Or just beginning to change?

[@DJDwibbit]

I'd love to know your favorite piece of music from each mario party ❤

[@classifiedmc786]

Here’s a random one. Talk about unlocking secret characters in the Lego Star Wars games. Something that is (hopefully) not that much of a hassle. Also, been loving June Zoom. Started watching your Identifying Luck series and I subscribed while watching your first video. Good luck with the rest of the month!

[@TopHatGames1]

A video spotlighting what you love most about your favorite Mario Sunshine course.

[@jordanhicks8572]

So I've seen some videos talking about how some vloons tower defense monkeys like the glue gunner are actually commiting war crimes. What if you did something like that for kirby? Like a tier list of every single copy ability rated not by power or mobility, but by how bad of a war crime actually using the ability in combat would be.

[@bomono3973]

rating every mario wahoo and wario wah from worst to best.

[@ThunderToast97]

A video on one of your favorite handheld Sonic levels (whether it be from advance, rush, etc.) if you have played any. It's always fun to hear you go in depth on a level you like.

[@scarletempress7209]

These June zoom 3 videos have been great! Video idea: wondering how the Mario 64/Odyssey paintings are made, considering theyre made up of some still moving gooey substance that warps as you stand close to it, maybe it's made from something similar to shadow Mario's paint or something else entirely

[@ciaroonc4671]

The psychology of the final Snailicorn of NSMB DS. He’s such a compelling character that we need a deep dive into his mind

[@Protofall]

Why "Link: The Faces of Evil" and "Zelda: The Wand of Gamelon" will always be the best Zelda games ever made. Cause y'know, the quality content ;) I subbed to you in August last year, so this is your first June Zoom that I've seen. I wasn't expecting it and its been really cool to get new and different videos every day. Thanks ZoomZike :D

[@dullahan1]

Video idea: Describe in exquisite detail how every enemy tastes as Kirby digests them and if they're worth swallowing or spitting out (just based on taste, not if they give a power). As for the Kirby game of choice to do this, Kirby and the Forgotten Land. Including the Mouthful Mode stuff he eats is optional.

[@luigigreen_]

Super Paper Mario Lore, sequel to the first hidden lore video

[@VeloxusGaming]

Definitely a video on Wario World. That’s a game that I never see anyone make videos about. As for the topic, maybe some sort of deep dive on the enemies and bosses? If there’s anything Wario World is well known for, it’s the unique and unusual enemies that inhabit the world. There is not much lore about the enemies other than the fact that the Black Jewel created them, so I’d like to see your take on them.

[@jaredcramsie182]

I don't have any ideas, I just want to say congratulations on making it this far, all your videos have been quality and I don't know how you do it.

[@ravenshepherd8111]

Rate all the mario powerups by their taste AND nutritional value June Zoom has been incredible this year so far. Always excited to see the next day's vid ^^

[@SuperSliceking]

Ranking or tier list of every Mario Kart item in the series (they don’t have to include the character items from Super Circuit since you can’t use them) from your personal favorite to least favorite including Mario Kart Double Dash special character items. Thanks ZoomZike and keep schmoving through June Zoom :)

[@Slyphoria]

Do whatever you want, you're awesome and I heavily applaud your effort with the June Zoom. I don't have this discipline to do this lol. Though, something involving how cool the Rex Wheelie from Kirby Air Ride would be a fun video to see. :D

[@moonkoto]

A video on Rogueport from TTYD! Just you talking about the various locations/citizens/references of the town. Good luck on the rest of month!

[@whotio7374]

I would love to see you talk about game over themes in video games. They typically go unsung, and there are a ton of great ones out there, some somber, some goofy, some genuine bangers.

[@ChibiJ]

Been loving June Zoom 3! I have an odd idea that's been in the back of my head ever since I played through Luigi's Mansion 2 In the game it seems like the mansions seem to have a mysterious back story. The second mansion for example always made me think it was a normal place where a family lived but either the father or mother was a crazy botanist who went too far with their plants or with the third mansion where it seemed like a clockwork inventor discovered a hidden tomb but tried to keep it a secret from others.

[@imjupid]

Going in-depth about your favorite Mario Party minigame would be interesting. Btw you're awesome

[@pizzaggio]

Something like a turistic guide/tour of interesting locations in mario games, i really enjoyed the 3d prospective in your ttyd bestiary video and it would be cool to see that idea expanded further

[@TGUBlitz]

Rate every single zone's loop-de-loops from every single single sonic game I've adored this year's June Zoom, I wish I could find this same mentality with my work!

[@aurorix4927]

How would you go about raising and preparing a chao to be the most delicious for dinner? I'm talking what evolutions would you take (Hero/Swim type, Neutral/Power type etc.), what animals would you give it, any accessories or specific chao fruit diet? The works.

[@that_docy]

Since we already had some Taste Videos, I would like to see how every Mario Party Item would taste and smell like. Especially looking forward to how the Wacky Watch will taste.

[@LegendBegins]

There will never be a powerup like the SMW cape. Powerful, versatile, and just difficult enough to master.

[@loganmccoy9588]

The many unique additions and changes across the hole Fire Emblem from Shadow Dragon and the Blade of Light up to the current entry Fire Emblem Three Houses.

[@b1con411]

I’ve been loving these videos :) I’d love to see you discuss your thoughts on Super Princess Peach, if you’ve played it! If not, maybe your thoughts on which characters you think should get their own game and why (like Waluigi, Daisy, or Zelda, for instance).

[@creepycreeper1112]

I like the sonic level discussions! They are quite comprehensive usually, and I quite agree with them!

[@starlite5154]

Damn, you're insane! Good luck lol My idea is that you do a video a bit like your Mario Kart 9 one, but for Mario Party, where your describe what your ideal Mario Party would have in terms of roster, maps, mechanics, etc.

[@dsonics4001]

The history of the coin sound effect throughout the Mario Bothers series

An in-depth character analysis of any particular character/characters from the Paper Mario franchise

[@DarkSamus288]

Since your Sonic Adventure 2 level breakdowns are so fun. I'd love to see you tackle a stage from the first Sonic Adventure. I'll leave it up to you to decide which stage you want to cover.

[@maxwellpaynewell5305]

A mini-retrospective on some licenced kids games you played growing up, I love taking some time to think about how the crappy games I played way back when influenced what I play today, or just if they would hold up to my current standards

[@mysticrainbowdragon]

June Zoom has been amazing so far this year, looking forward to the second half of it! So. The idea. The burger sign found in City Escape and it’s implications of the universe’s currency

[@strawhatmanbro]

Hey, ZoomZike! You make great videos and I love your content, man! If you happen to pick my idea, it would be cool to hear your thoughts on One Piece if you watch it. If you don't (you should probably start), then it would be cool to hear your thoughts on Luffy's powers (up-to-date only with the anime that is). There are some crazy things he can do, and I would love to hear your thoughts relating to my favorite anime of all time. Keep up the great work!

[@blakeskit]

Zike going through a Sonic Mania level pointing out all the little winks and nods the devs put there

[@Osmo22]

I personally would love to see you talk about more Sonic Adventure 2 levels! Or just more in-depth analyses.

[@genemelendez8157]

Given your videos on how things taste, here’s an idea. Looking over every boss that’s ever been in a 3D Mario game and judging how tasty they would be to eat. This would span from King Bob-omb in Mario 64 to Fury Bowser

[@1ittlegs]

A breakdown and exploration in how level design explores theme in both a narrative and design sense and what is needed to make your levels meaningful not only in the development of an idea but what it can say through that

[@PikaEmblemofGensokyo]

I’d love to here your thoughts on every single final boss in the smash bros series honestly. Since ultimate is out and I haven’t seen u do much about ultimate it’d be cool to see that throu! Btw: you’re one of my favorite youtube channels and I often come back to listen to the Mario party videos when doing homework keep up the great work -PikaEmblem

[@donovansantaella7861]

I think it would be really neat to hear you talk about the SA2 level select. It's personally one of my favorite level selects since it allows you to feel the cohesiveness of the world without it being a hub world that connects everything. That's just so much cooler than a plain old level list.

[@MorrisJunkyard]

i hope you're having a good month :D submission: maybe talk about wario courses in various mario karts? i rlly like them and idk why ^-^

[@MrBurke-em6te]

I can’t believe we’re already halfway through! It feels like yesterday that I discovered your channel through the Mario Kart Code video you did a while back. Could you do a video appreciating the host’s roles in Mario Party? I feel like characters like Toad and Toadette don’t get enough appreciation :,(.

[@archerbrown8733]

Video Idea: Why can I beat every Super Mario Bros game that I've ever played, but still can't get a girlfriend?

[@dip.918]

Sonic feet. What is your favourite (main) kind of Sonic shoe? Classic, Modern, Adventure w/ upgrades, SOAP, Riders? Basically anything with a new spin on the red and white design. Love you Zoom

[@leonardocouto3109]

I'd love a breakdown of Angel Island, from S3&K. I'm enjoying the NSMB world breakdowns, but it's interesting how Mario and Sonic games differ so much in how they present ideas to the player, but still do it effectively nonetheless. I've been exploring its first act in Sonic 3: Angel Island Revisited and got surprised by how the level as a whole feels pretty just, even for a beginner; plus, with the added component of speed into the mix, it certainly is much more of a chore for Sonic games to do it, but still the best ones pull it off with flying colors. Angel Island is certainly one of those and I really want it to receive some love.

[@KJJJJJJJJJJJJJJJJ]

Make an OneyPlays styled livestream/video (preferrably of a sonic game) Btw i love your videos about sonic levels and i only come back to your channel because of them
