Top 10 Mario Misconceptions - Mario Day 2024

Oh my gosh THANK YOU SO MUCH for mentioning the Toad Brick thing. It's probably one of the most believed Mario myths on the internet. When if they would just read the manual themselves, they'd know the truth! And the fact they were also turned into stones and _plants,_ which already existed, means that Bowser transformed them into stuff that was part of the natural scenery. Someone had most likely already placed all of those blocks beforehand. It's just that the brick blocks with power-ups weren't and are instead transformed Toads! And furthermore, the whole plot of the game is that Peach is the only one that can break Bowser's curse... When you rescue her at the end of the game, wouldn't she have gone and broken it? All the Toads that were transformed are no longer transformed! I feel like that should be common sense! Yet a handful of people think every brick block in future games are the same Toads that were transformed in the original game.

I always wondered why Ala-Gold's called that. Perhaps it's a play on "a la mode"? I mean there is an ice power up in the nsmb games. A toad's vest and round pants combo kinda resembles what disney's Aladdin wears. So maybe it's a portmanteau of Aladdin and the word gold?

[@DaSheepKiller]

A misconception that I’ve definitely seen is that the thing at the top of a Toad’s head is a hat. People believe that because it was shown to be a hat in The Super Mario Bros. Super Show, but that’s a non-canon cartoon and, if I’m not mistaken, the only time that it’s shown to be a hat. A loading screen in Super Mario Bros. Wonder even directly states that it’s not a hat, but instead part of their head. That might seem weird at first until you remember that Toads are literally mushroom people.

[@KimiOmega]

It's on the same level as those claiming that "Mario" is the brothers' last name.

[@johnclark926]

In recent Mario games I feel like they’re visually implying that a Toad’s cap is their hair, as you see they put hats on top of their caps and Toadette’s braids are part of her cap too. I wouldn’t blame people for being confused though, as both Mario RPG and the early Paper Mario games had toads with hair sticking out underneath or out of their caps; either the character designers of those games weren’t aware of what the caps were either, or the decision to have the caps be an extension of the body/hair-like was a more recent choice.

[@JJMcCullough]

This was a great video! I appreciated the fact that you cited such high-quality sources. One fake fact i've heard a lot is that the Koopalings are "based on" the design team who made SMB3. This doesn't really make much intuitive sense, since the Koopa kids are these wild punk rock characters and one is a girl, and they bear no resemblance to humans at all, let along video game programmers. The origin of this comes from the Nintendo Power "Mario Mania" guide, in which Miyamoto makes a comment that seems to me to be obviously clumsily translated. My read is that he seems to be saying the SMB3 design team each designed their own koopa kid, which would explain why they don't really "match."

These misconceptions constantly appearing in so many videos including big channels is why I try to dig deep when I make my own videos.

The Mario is Mental Game Theory was nothing more than a persuasive video essay, a good one, that purposely omitted known details to make a funny point. But people took it as official canon.

[@RoseSupreme]

6:40 Ayo, he even says "Here we go" in a tone similar to Charles Martinet. Likely a coincidence, but that's still pretty neat.

[@ExtremeWreck]

So that Jumpman name thing is false? That actually explains why Epyx was able to make a game called Jumpman; Nintendo never planned on that name & thus didn't trademark that name!

[@tidepoolclipper8657]

6:15 To be fair, the dude at the panel is not exactly lying. Peter Cullen's still the first OFFICIAL actor for Mario. The previous two guys were restricted to just commercials. Not to mention Harris was an actor; not a voice actor.

[@KingLaneCreations]

In my opinion, just because Larry was restricted to just commercials, doesn't make his impact on Mario's voice evolution less important. And while yes, Harris wasn't a voice actor, it's still worth mentioning that he was one of the earliest actors to play Mario in live-action, albeit a very weird Mario. There's also one more voice actor who probably predated Peter Cullen that I forgot to mention. There was a Donkey Kong vinyl album from Kid Stuff in 1983, called Donkey Kong Goes Home. In which featured Pat McBride (who co-written and co-produced the album) as the voice of Mario.

[@Plasmariel]

Wow!! Actual deep cuts! I was thinking these would end up being really redundant facts I know but I was pleasantly surprised! I was aware of the G&W Mario Bros. thing, the Jeannie VA, the early Mario naming, but the rest was new info! I was hesitant on if Toads were in fact turned to objects in the first SMB game, if the Saturday Supercade or cereal commercials came first, I thought Miyamoto hating DKC was true lol, I knew the names Bucken-Berry and Ala-Gold but didn't know their validity, the musicians Koopalings were named after I thought was for all of them, I always thought Popeye characters were unable to be used due to rights 👀

[@DIASTCartoons]

With the Mario movie sequel coming out, I hope Jeannie Elias and John Leguizamo (I heard he expressed some kind of disappointment for not getting to voice a character in the first Illumination film) have small voice roles alongside Charles and Kevin.

[@OtakuUnitedStudio]

Leguizamo specifically complained about Mario and Luigi not being voiced by Latino actors in the movie. For some reason he's stuck on the idea that the ITALIAN American brothers should be voiced by Latinos. He even went as far as to say there were NO Latino actors in the movie, which isn't true - Will Barnett has Venezuelan heritage and voiced Cranky Kong. Carlos Alazraqui also had a role, and has Argentinian heritage.

[@MartKart8]

I remember the Donkey Kong Country, rumour, I remember it expanded in to Yoshi's Island the reason it went with a hand draw art style, was to rebel against Donkey Kong Country, was what I remember reading, I think it was written in a official Nintendo Magazine, or a different gaming magazine.

[@OtakuUnitedStudio]

Miyamoto did say that Yoshi's Island was changed from prerendered 3D sprites to hand drawn to contrast it with DKC, but not because he didn't like it. Just because he didn't want them to come across as too similar. That's part of the reason the cutscenes are still prerendered - they were made before the switch to the new art style.

[@purplemist7]

[@deku812]

First mention that Nintendo couldn't get Popeye's license was in David Sheff's book Game Over from 1991. It did note Nintendo subsequently obtained the Popeye license. as you noted it was in 1982, this is after Donkey Kong's 1981 release which became a huge hit. The book iirc explained it as a no brainer at the time to grant the license. I don't think #1 was adequately debunked as the Popeye cabinet used the same chipset as the DK cabinet and both were ported as early NES releases.

And another widespread Koopaling Name misconception to add: Ludwig von Koopa is (certainly due to the unique hairstyle) named after Ludwig von Beethoven. Problem: The famous composer with the unmistakable hairstyle was named Ludwig _van_ Beethoven. Ludwig von Beethoven also existed and was also important in music yes, but he was a Kapellmeister (Conducter, Head of the Ensemble and Administrator of their Orchestral Building in one person) in Vienna. He wasn't writing music (at least not as his main profession) and most certainly didn't do so in Hamburg. That was Ludwig van Beethoven's thing. And yes, they were related van Beethoven was von Beethoven's Grandson. He legally changed his name to be not confused with his Grandpa anymore. Didn't quite work out, did it?

There was a Popeye video game Parker Brothers released for Atari 2600, ColecoVision, and Intellivision around the same time. Wonder if it had something to do with Nintendo’s Popeye issue. What do you think Lane?

[@KingLaneCreations]

I'm glad you brought that up. So here's what happened, after Nintendo released their Popeye arcade game in 1982, they gave Parker Brothers the license to port the game to the consoles you mentioned. Parker Brothers also ported another Nintendo arcade game to the Atari 2600 as well, which was Sky Skipper. Here's a link to Gaming Historian's video on the subject, were he talks about the Atari 2600 ports of Nintendo's arcade games. kzbin.info/www/bejne/eJu1polrZ6-ebZo

[@robbiewalker2831]

@@KingLaneCreations I heard the other reason Nintendo didn’t have the rights to a Popeye Arcade game before changing to Donkey Kong was because most companies prior to Donkey Kong’s release thought video games are a dying fad, even before the video game crash of 1983. It’s possible that both development issues and licensing neglect by superstition are the reasons why Donkey Kong became what it is today, especially when you take into consideration that Nintendo was about to go bankrupt over Radar-Scope’s marketing failure in America. If you want a misconception that’s hard to believe, try looking up stuff about Cranky Kong, Donkey Kong and how Rareware couldn’t make up their minds on who they are in the family tree, or whether or not Modern DK is DK Jr; which I don’t believe, because Cranky’s own bias towards modern game development (especially when breaking the 4th wall within DKC) would imply he’s not the same DK featured in the 1994 Game Boy game released a few months prior to DKC, but the Modern DK we know today is likely the same DK featured in Donkey Kong ‘94 (especially since DK Jr appeared alongside Modern DK in Mario Tennis N64), and that the GBA instruction manual to Mario vs. Donkey Kong said “Looks like Donkey Kong is up to his old tricks again!”, implying that this DK is the same DK from it’s spiritual prequel, which makes sense when you realize Miyamoto was the guy suggesting to give DK a necktie (which Cranky Kong never wore), and that DK’94 was the first game to feature the necktie-wearing DK (albeit in Miyamoto’s initial design rather than Rareware’s finalized look).

Not a fan of Ala-Gold, but Buckenberry isn't a bad name imo, even if it isn't official. The only problem with it is that it's not a Toad-themed pun. For Blue Toad, I'd pick Toaddew (like dew, or two) or Berry T. (Ala Zess T., etc) For Yellow Toad, Maybe Toadigold (marigold), Toadellow or Lemon T.

So, you're going to mention the "misconception" about Miyamotto hating story in games, or at least Mario games, but then not elaborate further and debunk it? Why? If that is an incorrect assumption that is something important to debunk hard and fast considering the amount of times it is echoed and has arguments and stories to back it up. I would love to see someone debunk that.

[@KingLaneCreations]

The reason I didn't elaborate it in this particular video was because it wasn't completely a Mario-specific topic, since I consider it to be an in-general Nintendo topic. Though if there's enough demand, I'd totally be down to making a video about whether or not Miyamoto dislikes story.

[@OtakuUnitedStudio]

The original booklet for Mario Bros. On the NES (not Super Mario Bros, the arcade game) stated that it took place in the sewers of New York. It didn't specifically say beyond that. The reason Mario was assumed to be Italian, or more accurately Italian American, is because New York has a large number of people of Italian heritage. Most people working on the tie in media interpreted that as a gruff Brooklyn type thing (even though what borough is never specified), while some went with a more cartoony accent.

Though you are correct that they aren't literally Italian since they were born in the Mushroom Kingdom, as seen in Yoshi's Island. I do think it's possible that they have heritage from an Italy-esque place in the Mario world though, such as Isle Delfino or the Luncheon Kingdom.

I'm pretty sure I'm not wrong. The Donkey Kong cereal came out in late 1982, which was probably around the same time the commercials were airing. Meanwhile, the Donkey Kong Goes Home album was released in 1983.

#8 Ooooooooh, you missed it by this much. While you are correct about the DKC thing, he does actively hate story. He may _claim_ he doesn't hate it, but just about every action proves otherwise. Even if you believe that he did like story, actually, and everyone was exaggerating; it wouldn't be "pure fabrication." The many reasons someone would think that are some of the best documented things in gaming history. If you truly thought this was wrong, you'd do a point-by-point debunking video of Arlo's video about it.

[@KingLaneCreations]

The reason I haven't made a point-by-point debunking video yet is because someone already did. SuperMarioT made two excellent videos about why he thinks Miyamoto doesn't dislike story, and I feel like the evidence he shows makes much more sense. Here's a link to watch both videos. kzbin.info/www/bejne/nnfUmq2gbbyBgMU kzbin.info/www/bejne/nZTNdXV7f6mGhqM

@@KingLaneCreations Oh... one of _those,_ I see. That is not a "point-by-point debunking video" firstly, because it came out _before_ Arlo's video (by over an entire month). And secondly, because Arlo's video literally addresses _every. single. point. made. in. that. video._ It is actually a video made in response to how bad and misleading of a video that was. You literally have none no research on this topic. Say something, _anything_ that gives the impression that you've watched Arlo's video, before trying to continue this discussion.
