Nintendo friend zoning Mario and Peach

[RETROVETRO]

probably wrong translation. They are probably mean to good couples Not a Good Friends

I highly doubt that actually.

 

[Segadude113]

they can never be together as nintendo always resets their universe when they are finally together.......

i mean if Mario married Peach, that'd be their happily ever after. They probably want Mario to go on forever. I mean he is the company mascot.

That's FAX!

I call BS on this. Mario and Peach are meant for each other. Yeah the ending of the anime movie was a giant cop-out, but this just ticks me off on so many levels. I don't think it's Nintendo or even Miyamoto saying this, but some rando at Nintendo say it for pissing off every Mario fan.

That's so true!

Just out of curiosity, do you think that a company as brand-sensitive as Nintendo would be unaware of what was being published on its official website for its flagship property?

I don't think you should care that much about what Nintendo says here, but I also do think Nintendo probably is aware of it. I also assume its executives, including Shigeru Miyamoto, are fine with it.

You still are allowed to interpret them as romantically invested in one another, so this doesn't strike me as that big of a deal.

If I had a nickel for every time NoA made a questionable localization decision, I'd be a rich man. Remember Fire Emblem Fates?

what would really shake things up would be if Peach had a power-up pregnancy, which yielded a tall baby with an automatic green hat on at birth, born feet-first with kicky-legs. would make the next Brothership game quite different with Mar & Lu kickin the piss outta each other on the title-screen n have to get a cartoon cloud of smoke & chaos with fists n feets punch n kicking out in a barely-controllable mess that creates warpzones spawned from time/space paradoxical fabric of reality ruptures - not to mention makin enemies run scared AF seein that shit comin toward em

i also heard a theory that Bowser Jr is Peach son cuz in one of the games he called her mommy and She shush him out which means she didn't want Mario to hear and peach isn't the real peach Rosalina is real peach and she was kissing bowser in oddesy in the wedding i heard that

Nintendo knows better.
- Bowser : alpha bad boy
- Mario : beta helper "that never gets anything"..

 

[Turbo Kid]

Considering how Mario was treated in that recent movie (not to mention Luigi) I don't know why this surprises anyone.

 

[DrunkGecko]

Well, I mean... Friendship is magic

I used to play Decap Attack a lot in early 90's... you ever play the Japanese version? completely different from Decap in many ways with the hero havin an Arabian or otherwise middle-eastern-ish theme with an entirely different soundtrack n 1-hit deaths instead of the life meter. amazing wut efforts Japanese developers would put forth in the name of localization. now it's like... 'let's give 'Muricans what they want! translate except drop an F-bomb every other word. it will be a shit! yes 'hit' that's wut I said! if it is our higher-ups might actually pay us this time and our Tokyo NeopanhandLe days will be over (at least until our next faiLure *sigh*) !"

My honest question is who cares about Mario or even links realonships ? I mean one is a platformer game and one is a adventure game. There has never been any romance taughts ever sense the games was made back in the 85 and 86.

Honestly will never understand peoples need to add relationships to games that don´t have any. It´s like Genshin and similar games people ship charters left and right.

Can´t we just have games to be games does it need to have crappy love stores ? there plenty of Romance games and anime if your that desperate for romance stories.

this is why I don't have any opinions on this thread other than an off-topic comment n my usual absurd, goofy horseshit lol... it's arguably more absurd than even my made-up irreverence that there's serious canonically-respective theories or rumors from some guy down the street that blows the lid off Nintendo's sacredly well-guarded underlying Twin Peaks-esque non-euclidean romance intricacies that have been in their vault since before the advent of electrical power in homes

I mean, ofc it's obv just for fun n I can sure dig wit-riddled nonsense as much as I can dish it out - so hey. sowing circle pixel gossip deserves its time in the radioactive sun, as weLL I'd think

Poor Luigi then if he feels like he is beneath Mario most of the time

I mean, playing devil's advocate here, the whole point of Mario and Link's original adventures was to "rescue the princess". It makes sense why fans ship Mario/Peach and Link/Zelda when saving them is the ultimate goal of the game.

Personally I agree with you though. Mario and Zelda don't really NEED romance in the games.

It's a "family friendly" company. They aren't going to toss together Peach and Mario for one reason.
If they did, the fans would want a wedding, then a kid, and if Nintendo gave in, that would imply Peach and Mario had sex. Can't have that in our family-friendly games. Let's just remake the same bullshit game with a new coat of paint.

Nintendo was re-releasing games before it was a thing.
