I knew about Wanda, about Foreman Spike, about Mr L, about J-Son from Mario Land 2, about the human golfers from Mobile Golf (which aren't even the only characters like that in the series; Camelot's been doing that for most early handheld Mario Tennis and Mario Golf games, up until at least the GBA)... But those OTHER Wrecking Crew 98 characters are definitely pretty... out there. The rest I would know thanks to spirits and trophies in the Super Smash Bros series, or just scrolling the Mario Wiki for info on Mario Tennis and Mario Golf (since I love playing Mario Tennis and would eventually run into the Mario Golf side from there), but I never would have guessed that there was the disturbed ghost of a child in a game like this.

[@karinyupinyan5754]

Loved learning about Wrecking Crew 98's story, it is so messed up. I do also wanna play the game myself cause it looks like a pretty fun game, it's an interesting take on Wrecking Crew's original gameplay style.

[@GardevoirBoy1991]

Mr. L is the manifestation of Luigi getting tired of being under Mario's shadow.

[@liannabunny7775]

Mr.L is literally a brainwashed Luigi who was brainwashed by Nastasia, the right hand woman to a villain known as Count Bleck. A tragic villain who had previously had the love of his wife tragically taken away from him by a prejudice father and attempted to destroy everything because life was meaningless without the love of his life.

[@UltimateFunBilly]

It should be mentioned that Barrio appears in Smash Ultimate as a spirit, and is named Wanda… Who is a fairy with a pink motif… Who also works with a green character. Hmmm… Kinda familiar…

[@robbiewalker2831]

NAVI?

[@UltimateFunBilly]

@@robbiewalker2831 Navi has a blue motif

[@SonplaysMinEcraft]

FAIRY GOD PARENTS

[@monopolyrubix1875]

Tbf naming the creature that uses a wand "Wanda" isn't exactly a stroke of creative genius

[@omocahofan1746]

Actually, Wanda from Mario and Wario predates Wanda from The Fairly Oddparents.

[@SonplaysMinEcraft]

literally every wario character should be here

[@murphmariotwopointoh7714]

Still disappointed that Rudy the Clown never made it to Dr. Mario World.

[@thejonbrownshow8470]

I mean like... 9-colt is probably the most normal guy in the warioware games

[@Mandarin9900]

Maybe not necessary, Wario basically became its own series

[@OrgnnCantSpellCanHe]

Hey, leave my WarioWare alone. They are unique, okay??

[@jesterx5542]

Formen Spike is also making a comeback in the new Mario movie according to the voicecast reveal. Still this was a great video and I've learned about Onnanoko which is a character I didn't even know existed despite knowing about Wreaking Crew 98.

[@kirotalksyt]

I have no idea how they will handle Foreman Spike in the new movie but I am definitely interested!

[@OmarAlikaj]

Nice we get to learn about the more obscure characters.

[@Rdotmop]

One of my favorite obscure "characters" is Bowser's Brother from Lost Levels, who is a blue-tinted Bowser in 8-4 (maybe also D-4 I forget) but isn't one of the Fake Bowsers since he doesn't turn into a normal enemy when killed with fireballs. I put character in quotes because Nintendo in recent times will either ignore him or keep his relationship to Bowser vague, which is a shame because if they decided to retcon the Koopalings being Bowser's kids, then it would be interesting to have them just be his brother's kids instead. also they should name him Wowser

[@femo3336]

i once looked out of curiosity "does bowser have a relative" and learned about fucking blue bowser the fucking whiplash was funny.

[@harrybest2041]

10:11 I wouldn't say that's the actual Mr. L, but instead a Floro Sprout in control of Luigi's body calling itself Mr. L. What happened to all of his personality? Why is he suddenly serving Dimentio after what happened to him last time? I think the 'Mr. L' part of it was just an excuse to throw in a reveal at the end, not that it wasn't obvious already.

[@kirotalksyt]

That's fair to say. It was a super odd moment.

[@GottaFistDemAll]

If you paid attention to Chapter 5, Dimentio realized the Floro Sprout on top of the cavemens head can control them, so he tested it on O'Chunks and was able to control him with the sprout. Even one of the instant Game Overs near the end of the final Chapter Dimentio mind controlled the player using the sprout.

[@bagelthebeagle11]

7:07 before sonic the fighters he was a HUMAN

[@tenebrisity6170]

That’s not a onigiri.. that’s a jelly donut!

[@herohamza1196]

Pokemon reference?

[@nothingtoseehere5829]

Nothing beats a jelly-filled donut!

[@CalTheHogNosedBat]

These donuts are great! Jelly-filled are my favourite! Nothing beats a jelly-filled donut!

[@fluffyrock2345]

5:18 Silly you, that’s obviously a jelly donut!

[@Kjdaboi220]

That girl be looking like sage

[@heitorsant1759]

As a big mario fan, i didn't know about mobile golf's existance

[@kirotalksyt]

Mario has the deepest lore 😎

[@Oceane1803]

Mr L is not as underrated as the other characters you mentioned. But yeah he's really great. I don't know if you saw the Nintendo High series by Foozle on youtube, but Mr.L has a role in two episodes, and he's really cool.

[@Jessica_Schweser]

Nintendo High in general is really cool. Did you know Season 2 is starting this Friday?

[@Oceane1803]

Oh my god I didn't know ! It'x so cool ^^

[@liannabunny7775]

I mainly got into Nintendo High because of Dimentio… he's admittedly my favorite Mario Character…

[@Jessica_Schweser]

@@liannabunny7775 Me too I found out not only was he in it, but was also voiced by MOTI

[@Oceane1803]

Personally I'm a Mario fan since so long I don't remember when it started. I think my oldest memories when it comes to Mario are a few blurry memories of me playing Mario Sunshine, and getting stuck at one of the levels where Anti Mario steals Fludd.

[@dellosayshello5405]

Mr l was Luigi Im shocked

[@iandegonia546]

It's a good day when a kiro drops.

[@itscieltho]

This video made me realize how much different accessories Nintendo had for their consoles back then. Wow, thanks for such information, Kiro! Keep it up! :)

[@NewtubeWorldYT]

Kiro Talks is probably one of my favorite KZbinrs, keep it up man!

[@SpundoDundo]

love the channel.

[@OSCnomore]

Same

[@iknowthisisforLKR]

5:11 that’s a jelly filled donut

[@awogbob]

Kiro talks producing content like they have 10x the subscribers they do Good shit!

[@awogbob]

Change that to 100x

[@kirotalksyt]

Thank you very much! Appreciate it.😁

[@dellosayshello5405]

Spike looks like a buffer walugi

[@Kyleeeeeeeee]

Spike’s returning in the Mario movie but won’t look like that

[@kirotalksyt]

I can see that 😂

[@learnirishthebestway5749]

I love your mario videos! Great work kiro

[@KnaveMurdok]

Kiro: You guys have heard of Mario Me: Mari-what? Slow down there, professor!

[@extrahistory8956]

In spanish, Barrio means something along the lines of "hood"

[@MontyMoleLoreMaster]

Ragumo is also a pretty cool Super Mario Land 2 enemy since they are canonically confirmed to be a Monty Mole relative.

[@behnamhassanpoor6793]

Dude , subbing to your channel is one of the best things i ever done in my life, your content is keep getting better and better.

[@infinitefun527]

DIMENTIO! DIMENTIO! DIMENTIO! TIME!

[@Jessica_Schweser]

I don't understand the point of this comment but I do understand Dimentio so DIMENTO! DIMENTO! DIMENTIO!-

[@ppoly]

smarrio when

[@delkaware3603]

Yea when

[@fluffyrock2345]

It’s always a good day when Kiro uploads

[@magi8467]

You’re definitely my new favourite channel :D

[@soniconabudget]

1000th like moment 😎 Your content is really high quality and this was a very interesting watch! Please keep up the good work!

[@user-tg3mw3dv2s]

I didn't even know Spike was an original character before watching this video. I thought he was just a new character they used for the Mario Movie. But after watching this, it feels kinda cool to see a very old character brought back in the movie.

[@Sly88Frye]

I've always liked the Pumpkin Zone in general in Super Mario Land 2. That vampire is so weird though because it's just that one vampire in the entire game and his purpose is for you to jump on one of his bats to reach a higher up secret on the right. Why this enemy has never appeared again anywhere ever is such a mystery to me. Anyways as a kid in the 90s who hadn't seen any Friday the 13th films at the time, I didn't realize the reference to Jason with that masked wearing enemy, especially considering I didn't even realize the name was J-son

[@Rubberman202]

Holy crap, I had no idea about the Barrio thing, I thought this was a gag video at first when I heard that. Weird, obscure Mario characters is what I live for, man, and knowing weird trivia like how Wanda, a character who only appeared in a Japan-exclusive game was called "Barrio" in an issue of a UK magazine really gets my Mario nerd juices a-flowing! Also, Nintendo is apparently changed Foreman Spike's Japanese name to "Spike" starting with The Super Mario Bros. Movie, so maybe they intend to use him more? That would be pretty sweet, he's one of my favorite obscure Mario characters.

[@CreepyboomGamer]

Wait Nintendo facts, that I DONT already know? This channel is great. How did you find all of this obscure stuff?

[@Pmf95k]

Wait Harlem facts, that I DONT already shake? This channel is high quality. How did you shake all of this Ajit stuff?

[@CreepyboomGamer]

Oh my god is that siivagunner

[@xspranp7649]

Foreman Spike is going to appear in the Mario movie

[@RemLasher77]

That’s a fact(Wanda the Fairy being called Barrio)about I didn’t know.

[@ZTimeGamingYT]

According to Brock, the food item at 5:09 is a jelly donut. I hear they're very delicious.

[@radiocuco]

Mario was just stopping the gentrification of the Mushroom Kingdom in Wrecking Crew 98

[@faustocruz5807]

great video once again

[@kirotalksyt]

Thank you! 🙌

[@superfandesonic1]

Mr. L was the best! I really liked the boss fight!

[@kirotalksyt]

Super awesome character 😁

[@donaldthescotishtwin]

That girl in wrecking crew is legitimately heartbreaking

[@alwaysasn]

That’s not Onigiri. That’s a jelly donut.

[@bluescat581]

Ah, yes I remember Mario battling a Jelly-Filled Doughnut

[@luisadolfothewolf7042]

Barrio is a Spanish word and can be translated as neighborhood, TFW

[@wumpis]

For your information, Mr. L is the giga chad of the Mario franchise

[@paulinetrivago.7540]

In a part 2, may I suggest these characters; Stanley the Bugman, Captain Syrup, Wrecking Crew enemies (eggplant man and gotchawrench), Sabassa, Mad and Aqualea, and Prince Pine

[@icecremmester]

Wow this was made a few minutes ago I thought it was made later also nice video! Man your so underrated. I can even begin to imagine how much time it took to find all these, let alone get the footage. Also, I have a suggestion for you: instead of putting a fully visible watermark in the corner, you could put it transparent in the center so that it’s harder to copy.

[@kirotalksyt]

Thanks for the support! Check out the channels in the description, as that's where most of the footage is from! I considered doing a watermark in the middle but I don't want it to be too distracting for you guys. 👍

[@Silly-Goose-OG]

Ever hear of the KFC obesity bird in Mario and Luigi Dream Team 💀

[@gabesterstudios7271]

And spike made it to the Mario movie

[@bodgmasterxionobst3r983]

Mr L is Iconic why is he even here

[@vicgc96]

There was a Super Mario address book with Splatterhouse characters.

[@LavaCreeperPeople]

Subbed since 3k

[@MrMegaManFan]

Actually they released a standalone non-NP version of Wrecking Crew 98 - and I know because I own it.

[@marcotanooky9651]

As world's nº1 Mario & Wario fan, every time I see Wanda my heart grows a bit bigge

[@Luigi_bigking]

Mr L is one or my favorite mario boy characters, but great video! 👍👍

[@admiralAlfonso9001]

It’s not surprising that the mobile golf game has humans because Mario golf on gameboy color has them too

[@lylelylecrocodile2538]

8:52 you cut off the footage right before that guy was going to die lol

[@Cat_floats]

He deserves more subs

[@sixthdragoness9874]

Woulda been nice to get Mr L as a costume for Luigi in Smash Bros at the least, epsecially since basically everyone gets an evil counterpart costume

[@footman1260]

speaking of dead in wrecking crew, foreman spike dies in the mario movie. i have insider info. just wait and see.

[@midnightartist43]

God I love dimentio as a character Maybe it’s just me but he felt like an antagonist that really dug nails deep into other characters. He manipulates the evil team he was on to make them fight Mario, let’s Mario and Luigi end up to the pure heart and snatches it at the end because he knew only someone like Mario could ever awaken the pure heart, makes Luigi his puppet, AND GETS AWAY AT THE END OF THE GAME The dude gots his slip ups here and there, but he knows how to get his shit done. Dimentio is ( as far as I know ) one of the only characters to not get obliterated right into the heavens by Mario. I honestly wish he would come back, but I don’t think Nintendo cares that much for the jester :( Also like, he’s a manipulative chaotic evil and I love characters like that lol

[@juanfierro7365]

NO ESE! BARRIO LOOKS LIKE IF EDWARD JAMES OLMOS AND MACHETE HAD A KID...CHALE

[@kylehazachode]

Baker from Mario Paint. Such an obsure character.

[@AlexandruCatrina-bk6jg]

4:48 Onnanoko: ありがとうマリオ、あなたは私の命の恩人です😌 Mario: ..........YAHO! Onnanoko: say what n*ga!?

[@CCalpytic]

0:28 sounds like Luigi’s mansion 3 cuz the characters. (Except Yoshi)

[@yunurrahmat]

not even Kiro himself would protest that those weird characters never come out from their respective games to be appeared at the mainline Mario games, instead we always get goombas and koppas for every single Mario mainline games. it's seems interesting if those weird characters would appear at mainline Mario games. are Nintendo shame about them? despite how weird Bowser is? what kind of creature is he? a turtle? a dragon? a dinosaur? who always kidnapped Peach to be married? not to mentioned that Peach is a human meanwhile Bowser is some weird random monster? cross species marriage? isn't that weird enough?

[@RenMps]

Yes

[@hatguy2254]

Great video but I personally think the most blatant Jason ripoff has to be Rick in the first splatterhouse

[@kirotalksyt]

He's definitely right up there too lol

[@natejoe9924]

Oh wow no this was interesting

[@nathanblevins158]

To be honest I love the Mario golf character

[@AasGlitch]

Bro Luigi is the only survivor in Mario and wario

[@capricornkitchenist106]

I knew about Mr. L

[@GottaFistDemAll]

5:11 WRONG! That's a Jelly filled Donut! Silly non-Americans don't know what a Donut is. ~4Kids, probably

[@ricardocantoral7672]

The reason why Mario and Wario was in english was because Nintendo planned to release the game internationally. Poor sales in Japan caused Nintendo to have second thoughts regarding a wide release hence Mario and Wario ended up being a Japanese exclusive game.

[@devalynbrooks9566]

3:21 Mario was in his every right to destroy those buildings Bowser didn't own the land he was building on that land was mushroom Kingdom property Mario was well within his rights to destroy those buildings and not to mention those buildings were destroying the natural environment by blocking out the sun

[@funne_]

Why is there 2 nintendo powers!!??

[@MsDarkz123]

If Mario is italian where is Italy in Mario universe?

[@edgardeitz5746]

Is Foreman Spike related to Wario in any way?

[@dellosayshello5405]

Wanda

[@funne_]

translate to english lol

[@ericwijaya2119]

Onnanoko looks like Reimu

[@The_Sofa_King]

You forgot to talk about wapeach

[@josheaster1547]

mario was an italian immigrant in brooklyn

[@Limited_Film_Works_]

What do you mean Mr L is Luigi!!!!!!!??????????

[@bepisthescienceman4202]

Yoah based wrecking crew

[@herohamza1196]

Guys I think Onnanoko is based on hanako-san

[@admiralAlfonso9001]

Yeah I knew barrio

[@admiralAlfonso9001]

I dint know thier name though

[@jamiestu07]

Hello

[@kirotalksyt]

Heyoooo!

[@datdamnkez]

How about wart from super mario 2

[@kirotalksyt]

I considered talking about him, but I figured most people have probably heard of him. He's still pretty weird though, yeah.

[@datdamnkez]

@@kirotalksyt ayyyy I got a response from kiro talks awesome 😎 and yea that sense the wario series has alot of weird characters

[@somthing_755]

Bean

[@CrashHeadroom]

Kids were built different back when this mario was released my man, we loved horror, weird stuff, gorey gooey crud and we wanted more............................ now your generation can barely handle a loud noise without shutting down. Bad way to live.

[@c0smicbr3akes]

Onnanoko Is Reimu Bruh

[@reubenwalker4517]

Can we have Sonic The hedgehog facts next?

[@kirotalksyt]

I have an idea for another Sonic video next, but I could definitely do a Sonic facts-type video in the future!

[@delkaware3603]

[@SuperSonicAlex_YT]
