You forgot to mention on how E. Gadd runs a coffee shop in the Beanbean Kingdom, but makes you get the coffee beans for the coffee! THE MONSTER!!!

[@wootmasterzorsx]

You want to know what I think? Well, first off, the idea E. Gadd tried making clones of both brothers and the robot Mario was a precursor to Gooigi is interesting. Definitely feels like something that E. Gadd would do. ...But the idea E. Gadd is evil and all that? Kinda reaching, there. I mean, the biggest red flag about why that doesn't make sense is the fact something Bowser Jr. said in the cutscene was taken at face value. In the same scene where Bowser Jr. says Peach is his mother and Mario is the bad guy always kidnapping her, Bowser Jr. says he was GIVEN the paintbrush by E. Gadd. And given the ending cutscene, Jr. clearly knew the whole time Peach wasn't his mom and that Mario isn't the bad guy, so it stands to reason Jr. was lying about being given the paintbrush, as well. Besides that, another sticking point with that villainizing E. Gadd I don't think makes sense at all is how you state E. Gadd knew Mario was going to be there. We have zero idea what E. Gadd knew and didn't know in Sunshine since E. Gadd doesn't physically appear in Sunshine, he's merely alluded to by way of products his company made. For all we know, the Piantas bought the paintbrush from E. Gadd to paint signs or paintings and all the typical painting related activities and they also bought FLUDD for the sake of having a machine that cleans things. And, of course, there's questioning the morality of putting the portrait ghosts into their portraits in the first place in addition to selling the King Boo portrait. To the former... these are malevolent ghosts who bring harm and cause terror with anyone they come across, E. Gadd's morally in the right for doing it. To the latter... well, to his credit, E. Gadd probably thought it harmless, thinking King Boo was just stuck in the painting forever, so it's very careless and irresponsible, but it's not morally reprehensible or anything. But that all said, it's obvious E. Gadd's no villain, he's just at worst a mad scientist in the sense he's a few cards short of a full deck and that his inventions backfire or lead to problems for other people. Which makes him creating Mario Brother clones less an act of some evil sinister purpose (since, really, what's a robot Mario built for racing or a gooey version of Luigi that melts from water gonna be used for in any sort of villainous scheme?) and more a case of "this guy's trying to create artificial life because he's a few beans short of a full pot of coffee."

He recorded that he started feeling sharp pains on his back and that his eyes became a gold colour. Next, the virus took full control and E. Gadd transformed into the troublemaker he is today. He likely wears the glasses to hide his eyes. This happened a very long time ago, inside of the town that was destroyed by the shadow queen in the opening of paper Mario TTYD.

Hm... Scientist creates a robotic clone of the main protagonist that acts exactly like them... E Gadd is Dr Eggman/Robotnik confirmed.

[@TheSmart-CasualGamer]

WAIT A SECOND. If E Gadd pixelates Luigi, converting him into pixels, that would mean the original Luigi, the one we've come to know and love, is DEAD.

Just putting this out there but perhaps E. Gadd could have been fooled in the Bowser Jr situation. Remember, Bowser Jr's handkerchief has the ability to make him look like Mario. For all we know, E. Gadd could have just thought he was giving it to Mario. Just sayin', don't count your yoshi eggs before they hatch swanky.

[@PrimmsHoodCinema]

*Rose Gold Peach* The fact that she's a character is highly insulting. But I miss her.

[@JKitty843]

I always kinda liked her. Mario had a light/medium/heavyweight racer in Baby, Regular, and Metal forms, so Peach got Rose Gold Peach to have her own heavyweight version too. It's a bit weird that Luigi didn't get anything, but Mario/Peach are a duo in their own way.

But in Mansion 3 trailers it looks like Luigi slumps over when Gooigi is unleashed... So what is going on there?

[@seabassthegamer6644]

Seems to be just a gameplay thing. In canon, they act as individuals. I think I heard something about Luigi psychically transmitting instructions to Gooigi or something. They do seem to act like different individuals when they move about and such.

Luigi actually mind controls Gooigi. E Gadd designed him that way because Gooigi almost killed him. Read E Gadd's journal on Nintendo's Luigi's Mansion 3 page.

"Who's to say Luigi's data wasn't copied" Who's to say the Luigi being pixelated is in truth the real Luigi being despixelated, so on and so forth. This is some SOMA shit I'm delving into about the Mario world, but still...

[@joewhite9037]

Man this makes so much sense. Great video.

[@Nintendude.]

My question: Why would E.Gadd would make copies of the Mario Bros in the first place? A) If he is Evil: Make copies of Mario Bros to rule the world. B) If he is Neutral: Sell copies of Mario Bros to anyone for whatever reason - nothing personal, it's just business. C) If he is Good: Make Mario Bros copies if in the events that the Real Mario Bros died the copies can protect the Mushroom Kingdom (or the world) in their place.

[@jouritube963]

seeing how e.gadd always preforms with just giving his things away *for money* he just does it for buisness and *money*

[@Sir_Kero]

@SwankyBox, if you revisit this topic, it might be worth noting that the Graffiti from E Gadd's brush was officially called "goop". It could take on living forms, and even mimic the shapes of things like piranha plants... so I don't think it's a stretch to assume the goop from the Gaddbrush is an ectoplasmic construct similar to Gooigi.

[@coolpro1461]

"COUGH COUGH" luigis mansion 3 "COUGH COUGH"

[@goblinmcgameface]

Well, I have a slight feeling that in Luigi’s Mansion three, Gooigi is a vessel that Luigi posses. If you look at Luigi’s pose while Gooigi appears, you can see that he is kinda slumped over, and life-less. Just like his soul/mind has been removed.
