    500 Weird Thungs About Mario

    Post any weird things about the Mario games here. You can post more than one, as I have done below. Let's see if we can get to 500!

    1.A giant turtle is constantly kidnapping a princess.

    2.Said Princess relies on an overweight plumber to save her each time she is kidnapped.

    3.Mario and Luigi are brothers, but they don't seem to have last names.

    4.Jumping on small brown creatures heads kills them

    5.You can jump on a turtles head and steal it's shell, then kick said shell at it.

    6.A plumber forces a green dnosaur called Yoshi to eat Turtles, weird brown things, berries, maybe poisonous berries and shells, yet it never gets indigestion.

    7.Mushrooms don't make you high but they make you grow

    8.Strange flowers change the colour of Mario's clothes and allow him to shoot Fireballs.

    9.Ghosts called Boos are shy if looked at.

    10.Mario can fly if he has a raccoon tail despite the fact that raccoons can't fly..

    11 - Feathers give Mario and turtles capes, because raisins.
    12 - Said capes allow Mario to float through the air and even dive down to create earthquakes in the immediate area, without suffering any sort of visible injury in the process to himself.
    13 - An overweight weird elf man dressed in yellow is obsessed with money and many ways to get it, including creating an elaborate distraction to steal Mario's castle, speaking of which...
    14 - Mario has a Castle. He also has a house that he shares with his brother that can change its outward and internal configuration without any sort of construction required.
    15- Mario was once a carpenter under the alias Jumpman and dated a blonde woman named Pauline who was kidnapped by a gorilla named Donkey Kong and a battle/chase ensued over a construction site of all places.
    16 - After defeating said gorilla, Mario/Jumpman caged the gorilla and sent miniature alligators, electric balls of death and various flying birds after the gorilla's son, Donkey Kong Jr, who had set out to rescue his father from a zoo, an electric room of death, and the old construction site where Jumpman and DK first fought. Also, Jumpman dies but somehow gets better.
    17 - He then dumps Pauline and disappears for awhile.
    18 - Years later he reunites with Pauline (as friends), with Pauline having somehow in the time since they last met turned from a blonde into a voluptuous brunette. The son of the original Donkey Kong (DK Jr), now going under the name of his father, kidnaps Pauline, forcing Mario to rescue her across another construction site, a forest, a lake and other environments.
    19 - Mario and DK at some point after the previous entry become buddies and start their own toy factories, with windup toys of themselves that are presented to Pauline. DK kidnaps Pauline (again) and Mario rescues her with the help of his toy Mario army. This happens several more times, with additional toys added of Mario's brother Luigi, a princess and a mushroom man.
    20 - Mario has the craziest and most dangerous of recurring parties that he invites his best friends and worst enemies to.
    21- Also various sporting events from Basketball, to Tennis and even the Olympics.

    22 - Mario and Luigi can throw fireballs underwater.
    23 - Likewise, they can stay underwater indefinitely without needing to come up for air.

    24. Mario could never seem to hold down a job. Carpenter, to demolitions, to extermination, to plumbing. Now what is he? A royal food taster?
    25. The original plan was for Mario to carry a gun, like Pitfall Harry in the NES/FC 'Suer Pitfall'. The two may be secretly related.

    26. Mario and Luigi in the cartoons and movie did not speak with Italian accents, but in the video games where they have voices, they do.

    27. Mario runs, climb, jumps, swims, etc., but never seems to lose any weight.

    28. Mario/Luigi can smash cement blocks with their heads and it doesn't hurt them.

    29. Gold coins can defy grabity.
    30. Shooting certain enemies with a fireball turns them into a gold coin (SMW)
    31. You can't buy anything with these gold coins.

    32 - The Koopalings from Super Mario Bros 3, despite being called Koopalings and marketed as his kids, turn out NOT to be his actual kids. Go figure.
    33 - Mario Land 1's main villain, Tatanga, makes an appearance as a boss of the Moon area in Mario Land 2 and is revealed to have to been working for Wario to distract Mario so he can steal his Castle and hide the 6 Golden Coins that act as the keys to the front door across the landscape underr various bosses' watch (including tatanga, the 3 Little Pigs, a witch, a giant bird, and others)
    34 - Yoshi was originally planned to be in as early as the original Super Mario Bros as a mount for Mario, but was held off due to hardware limitations. Scetches of early Yoshi concepts were revealed in an interview that had him as a pteradactyl for a possible mount.

    35. Princess Peach was originally named Princess Toadstool.
    36. Peach is a princess and not a queen despite the fact that she seems to have no parents.
    37. Peach is kidnapped repeatedly but her sister Daisy, despite also being a princess, is only kidnapped once.
    38. The princess can float in Super Mario 2 USA but in subsequent games in which she is a playable character, she cannot.

    40 - After Super Mario Land 1, Daisy has not appeared in any main series games, instead being used in spin-offs (Mario Party, Mario Kart, the various sports games, etc) with a change in design and personallity to make her easier to identify her from Peach. This included making her more tomboyish. Also, she was never Peach's sister (to my knowledge, there could have been some mention in the original SML game manual that I don't remember)
