Mario is Missing (PC Version) Part 3

[backupdump002]

WHOOP FORGOT TO DO THIS IN THE LAST POST:

1. Reply to this post, and I will pick three of your icons.
2. Make a post (including the meme info) and talk about the icons I chose.
3. Other people can then comment to you and make their own posts.
4. This will create a never-ending cycle of icon squee. Whoo!

And uhhhh, be sure to mention if you wanna do the meme in your comment, since otherwise I'm just gonna assume that you're commenting on the entry instead. :B

Anyway, peachifruit chose:


1.) It's Wakka from Final Fantasy X, showing INTENSE SHOCK in response to Yuna saying she wants Tidus to join the party. I remember bursting out laughing when I first saw it in the game, but had completely forgotten about it until I saw it again on Video Game Recaps, WHICH IS A HILARIOUS SITE BY THE WAY. So credit to them for the screenshot |B Also, the particular episode with that screenshot is here, for those curious.

2.) It's Colonel Mustard from the old Clue SNES game! I just downloaded it one night out of boredom and started playing it, but it... wound up being intensely boring and annoying, so I eventually just started screwing around. During this, I found out that if you wrongly accuse someone of murder and lose the game, then it'll show this hilarious, two-frame animation of your character standing normally and then suddenly getting this shocked expression on their face. I WOUND UP LOSING WITH EVERY CHARACTER JUST SO I COULD SEE THEIR ANIMATION, but none of them were as hilarious as Colonel Mustard.
Fun Fact: I was originally going to make this an animated icon with his shocked face, but then decided against it. I still have the second frame, though.

3.) This is Octave from Interstella 5555, specifically the One More Time part 8D You can see this shot at about 3:30 or so.
Anyway, wishwashing took some screenshots of that video and put them in her LJ, though she deleted that entry a while ago. ANYWAY but I took the opprotunity to make some icons, and once I came across that shot... I don't even know. INSPIRATION STRUCK AND I CAN'T EVEN EXPLAIN IT. SUDDENLY, I HAD TO MAKE A PACMAN ICON!
... and I guess that's it. |D I can't even watch that part in the video anymore without thinking of him eating fruit

SO ANYWAY, ARE YOU GUYS UP FOR SOME MARIO IS MISSING!? I DECIDED I SHOULD PROBABLY STOP SCREWIN' AROUND AND FINISH THIS EPISODE, SINCE ONCE I GET BRAWL THEN I'M GOING TO DISAPPEAR FOREVER (THEN AGAIN WE PRE-ORDERED IT, SO GOD KNOWS WHEN IT'S GOING TO GET HERE. TORTURE). WELL, THAT, AND THE FACT THAT THE LAST UPDATE WAS LIKE A MONTH AGO. I FIGURED IT WAS PROBABLY HIGH TIME FOR ANOTHER.

IN THE LAST EPISODE, WE SET ROY ON FIRE. IN THIS EPISODE, WE'RE GONNA SET SOMEONE ELSE ON FIRE. I HOPE YOU GUYS ARE AS EXCITED AS I AM!

Previous Episodes




Let's DOOOO THIIIISSS



COME ON WEEGEE JUST GIVE HER THE KISS

TAKE ONE FOR THE TEAM



Weegee moves forward with a seductive swagger



Wendy constantly blows kisses at you while little... hearts? Lips? Hearts. While little hearts blink around her. god i'm tired



Looks like a happenin' place!



I'LL BE CAREFUL JUST FOR YOU, BABY

Also, lol, "most asked-for artifacts." Watch as these turn out to be like... friggin'... Hitler's used tissues that're worth $1200 a piece or something equally stupid. I STILL CAN'T GET OVER THE ART CATALOGUE



THIS NEWSPAPER IS A LITTLE SLOW ON THE UPTAKE, I SEE




Anyway.



???????????????????????????????????????????????



ANYWAY.



... y'know, I find it a little funny in a dark sort of way that there was so much fuss over making the palace all big and perfect and then Sophia and Frederick both up and died before its completion. :B WHICH IS HORRIBLE OF ME, I KNOW, BUT



I have no idea why this says "Brandenburg Gate Horseshoe" since that's not what I'm returning at all. Okay, Mario is Missing, whatever



And I like how that doesn't have a question mark.




And that seems like a kind of crappy reward for a crown, of all things. THEN AGAIN WHAT DO I KNOW



y'know this actually isn't a badWHERE IS THE STATUE IN THE FRONT

GOD WHAT AM I EVEN PAYING YOU PEOPLE FOR




HERE'S the horseshoe.





And it barely costs less than a crown.



I like the Berlin Wall in the background. That's actually a pretty neat detail :D



Woooooo! Viva la revolution!






... why would they want that back, anyway?



YOU DARN KIDS WRITING "HI" ALL OVER MY WALL



Man, where have I heard "Under the Linden Trees" before? I could swear that was the name for like... a song or a movie or a book or something. Unless I'm thinking of something else.




PUT THE LIME IN THE COCONUT no no don't start




Those had better be the most COMFORTABLE BENCHES I HAVE EVER SAT IN or else i am so writing an angry letter



Most accurate cars ever. Not that I have a lot of room to talk when it comes to drawing cars, but




GOD FINALLY, UGH



NOT IF I BURN YOU ALL YOU WONT, HA HA HA



I completely forgot to do this before, but if you click on the Koopalings then they'll say something to you. It's just one thing and it's never that important or anything, but it's still another opprotunity for potential hilarity. WHY, JUST THIS ALONE MAKES ME LAUGH! OH WEEGEE, YOU LADYKILLER

I need to remember to go back and see what Larry and Roy say, though. SOMEONE REMIND ME





... what is wrong with this guy.
I HAVE HIGH HOPES FOR YOU, MY BOY
READ THE NEWSPAPER AND WEEP
YOUR MISSION, SHOULD YOU CHOOSE TO ACCEPT IT

ALSO GOTTA LOVE THOSE MAD RHYMEZ HUH GUYS



I think the "see page 3 for sketches" thing is just referring to how you can look at this one page of the newspaper where it shows pictures of the Koopas stealing stuff and lists what they stole and the rewards and so on. Which I also forgot to show you guys. DUHHHH



LOL I SAW THAT



LOOK, IT'S THE SECOND LARGEST COUNTRY IN SOUTH AMERICA, OKAY? UGH JUST GET OFF MY BACK



Definitely a hotel I would stay at




DANANANAAA



Hooray, we're making a difference!



EXTREMELY FAST HORSES why did i just imagine racecar noises




BUT I'M SURE PLASTIC AND STYROFOAM WOULD MAKE PERFECTLY ACCEPTABLE CATTLE-TRIPPING TOOLS



GET IT



A strap of leather with stones on each end is of higher worth than a crown with jewels all over it NO I WILL NOT SHUT UP ABOUT THIS



I dunno why, but I like imagining that guy being real instead of just a plastic mold. JUST COMES IN, SITS ON A HORSE, MAKES EIGHT BUCKS AN HOUR, GOES OUT

THE NAME'S BENDER |D



and boy if i wasn't terrible with heights i would be all over that i tell you what



Haha, I love how uninterested that guy looks when you catch him blinking. I just imagine him speaking in the most droll voice possible.



And suddenly, his interest is piqued!



George Washington: the default answer to every question.



AND A STONE IS MORE VALUABLE THAN no i better not start




and i'm sure there's at least one person out there who giggled over the word "colon"



The lady in the thumbnail has no arms. ... or a body.




BUT THAT WOULD BE AWESOME, JUST HAVE 600 PEOPLE TANGOING ONSTAGE




You know what would make a good story? Something about a clown who makes people happy, but inside he's real sad. Also, he has severe diarrhea.




MY BEST SCREENSHOT YET



dumdedum




HOW TO HAVE AN IRISH (apparently) ACCENT: SAY "SEE" AFTER EVERY SENTENCE



hairdryers everywhere
i cannot speak of it



Wow, great screenshot, self. BUT MAN, TWO KOOPAS, I LOVE IT WHEN THIS HAPPENS



... WHERE'S THE OTHER BAG



Okay FINE I'll just beat you up AGAIN




I skimmed through the pamphlet and took a screenshot, and then afterwards I got so involved with poking around in the map that I completely forgot about it and wandered off.



... and even went to a different info booth, to boot. I am hopeless.

Hahaha, man, I can't think of shamrocks anymore without thinking of that one Dr. McNinja comic. SHAMROCKS KEEP CUTTING INTO MY FACE!





SO IS IT BAD THAT WHEN I READ "POISON IVY" I IMMEDIATELY THOUGHT OF THE BATMAN CHARACTER AND TOOK SEVERAL MOMENTS TO REMEMBER THE ACTUAL PLANT?




Meenan's?







That looks about as cheerful as the Shinra Mansion. That was a strangely accurate reference, wow



My dad and I had a conversation about Guinness not that long ago! trufax



A beer label.

A beer label.

I think we have found the new champion of the "Most Pointless 'Historical Artifact' Ever" award.



"Shamrocks" made me laugh so hard, I don't know





WHAT A WONDERFUL DAY FOR A PICNIC












AND A KEG



I guess being a playwright was the WRIGHT CHOICE HAW wait that made no sense



Hahaha, they just stole the beard. That's kind of considerate. "No, no, just the beard! The beard's all we need!"



"SORRY, HONEY"





That statue looks like it's made of jelly. Also GREAT EFFECTS ON THE BACKGROUND, HUH





JESUS CHRIST look at all that money MY GOD. At this rate, the Mario Bros. will no longer have to work.



I'm gonna buy lotsa spaghetti



WELL WE'RE DEFINITELY NOT IN ASIA



"Hey, this old shoe might get us a couple of bucks."



I genuinely laughed at this. I THOUGHT IT WAS KIND OF CLEVER, OKAY? Though I can't help but wonder who in their right mind would start an 'M' Club



Can do!



It'd be funny if they drew it with a martini glass in its hand



What the heck is going on with that thumbnail dfkjghadfk. HOW CAN YOU PEOPLE MISTAKE PALE BLUE FOR BRIGHT PURPLE




Tank, hot tub, same thing




CHILLIN'. This is sort of funny if you imagine that the lines in the background are those flashing, Rising Sun-esque lines you see everywhere, rather than carpet or something. To me, at least.



Hahahahaha

Though I gotta say, if I were a god and I wound up being the god of "teeth and toothaches," I would feel so ripped off.



AN EVIL SPIRIT IS LOOSE OH GOD




Man, I'd like to see someone with a hangnail that's large and strong enough to impale a tree. NEW SUPERHERO: HANGNAIL MAN! Danananananana god it's late




I like how all the nails are sort of crowded on one side of the tree. Like the other nails are part of some sort of special club, and all the lesser nails have to stay on the sidelines and scrounge around for change while the special nails are all sippin' wine and eating lobsters. OR NO OR MAYBE LIKE like the fewer nails are the humans and the rest are the zombies, and the humannails are running around and shooting machine guns and throwing grenades and chopping up the zombies with a helicopter what am i talking about jesus



AND JUST WHILE I'M HERE |D



RING RING RING RING RING RING RING
BANANAPHONE




HUMAN UMBRELLA just get a really tall guy and have him lean over





I actually kind of like this picture. IT'S GOT CHARACTER





GETTING EVER CLOSER




And yet, despite the hotline, the townsfolk still prefer to show me their improv poetry skills rather than stop anyone or anything. BAH.



asfd this map. I predict much taxi-using.



...



WELP, at least now we know where we are. there are only two cities in all of australia, trufax



ALCATRAZ?



Haha, wow, that's actually kind of severe. DON'T GO ON THE BRIDGE, GUYS



That sounds like the name of a really terrible restaurant.






THAT BARELY EVEN RHYMES



I SAID I WANTED RED CURTAINS! RED!
UGH GOD I CAN'T WORK UNDER THESE CONDITIONS




You know, I've never had a Danish. They look sort of predictable, though. Like you take one look at 'em and you're like, "Man, I totally know how that's going to taste," and you decide to go buy something more exciting. It's four in the morning





Honey bunches of DEATH



ausdifhasdf for some reason when i read the part about ferry boats i just imagined the zoo getting shipments of koalas







The koala casts you a sultry glance as it takes a slow, teasing bite from its celery stick



or whatever that's supposed to be



THAT KID IS AMAZING



I COME FROM A LAND DOWN UNDER
WHERE BEER DOES FLOW AND MEN CHUNDER



I can't stop laughing at "Manly Beach"




I've got a Ph.D in SURFING



THOUGH FROM THE SOUND OF IT, I CAN'T IMAGINE WHY




JESUS CHRIST THAT'S ON THE SHORE GOD THAT GUY MUST HAVE A BROKEN NECK FROM THAT

I LIKE HOW THEY SHOW THIS AFTER SAYING HOW MUCH BETTER BONDI BEACH IS THAN MANLY BEACH, BY THE WAY



Man, it's gonna take Luigi like twenty minutes to go through all the names on the "People Who Said Hi" list



what



Weegee has loved many, broken a few hearts, he knows how it goes








WELL AT LEAST HER ASHES HAVE A GENDER-DEFINING BOW ON THEM

AND WITH THAT VIOLENT MURDER OUT OF THE WAY, I'M AFRAID IT IS TIME I BID FAREWELL FOR THE NIGHT. WHAT WILL THE NEXT EPISODE HOLD? YOU'LL JUST HAVE TO WAIT AND SEE!!!!!!

I WAS GOING TO DO TWO PARTS BUT I REALLY DON'T HAVE THE ATTENTION SPAN FOR IT TONIGHT
SO
ENJOY

Comments

[neutraltwin.livejournal.com]

Well, as much as I abhor doing memes...I'm curious. REPLY'D :B

Oooh, Australian location. *cracks knuckles*
- ...I have never heard a single person, ever, call the Harbour Bridge the 'Old Coat Hanger'. Ever. Although that IS a pretty good likeness. :B
- Hahaha they stole a koala. Because apparently the biggest zoo on the continent only has one. KOALA SHORTAGES, MAN, THEY AFFECT US ALL also koalas are not BRIGHT YELLOW jesus. And that's a eucalyptus leaf he's chewin' on there. 8D
- XD MAN I NEVER EVEN NOTICED THAT. MANLY BEACH. It's always just been a name. Seriously, it's just a really popular beach. WITH $1260 SURFBOARDS, APPARENTLY :O

Hahaha, oh Wendy. You harlot.

[doxinator.livejournal.com]

I'LL PIIIIIICCCKKK...


Haha, I had a feeling you'd like the Australia stage :D

I JUST SEE A BRIDGE, PERSONALLY, THOUGH PERHAPS I AM NOT AS IMAGINATIVE

Hahahaha, just pluck a koala off a tree and shove it in a sack. YOU PEOPLE AND YOUR KOALA THIEVERY. THIS IS WHY WE CAN'T HAVE NICE THINGS
I HAD A FEELING IT WAS A LEAF but the way they drew it looks so much like a stick of some sort. IT THREW ME OFF

MANLY BEACH, THE PREFERRED SURFING LOCATION OF CAPTAIN FALCON what
$1260 surfboards oh my god asfd. THAT'S LIKE... THREE 30GB PS3'S if I'm remembering the price correctly, anyway. But MAN

OH EDGEY LUIGI-POO

[puddinchan.livejournal.com]

Oh, Lu-i-gi. ♫ Such a flirt. Daisy will be jealous.

Also, this meme you have sounds interesting. >3

[doxinator.livejournal.com]

WHAT'S THIS
WHY ARE YOU COVERED IN LIPSTICK



AND ASHES

Aaaaand for your icons:

[puddinchan.livejournal.com]

DOING WHAT A MAN SHOULD BE DOING

PHILANDERING

[fireholly.livejournal.com]

"Under the linden trees" is from the translation of Dragostea Din Tei. :D

[doxinator.livejournal.com]

Aha, that's it! I knew it sounded familiar. 8D

[destructively.livejournal.com]

*LOLS SO FUCKING HARD OHGOD*

THE POOR MAN AND HIS BROKEN NECK

[doxinator.livejournal.com]

WELCOME TO BONDI BEACH

HERE'S OUR BROCHURE

[destructively.livejournal.com]

FUCK CAN I FRIEND YOU

JSJLDSDSGKJSLFALSGF

[doxinator.livejournal.com]

GO FOR IT

[batneko.livejournal.com]

Sure, I will do the meme. I got nothing else going. My icons are boring though.

Now for comments!

Wow, there's graffiti on the wall and everything. I am surprised.

HAHAHA! Oh man, I love the stoned mayor guy.

I would eat gaucho nachos.

You basically just described every clown ever.

Yeah...that's pretty bad. You wouldn't have trouble remembering it if you ever touched it.

Hey, don't diss Guinness. That's good stuff, as beer goes. I prefer those frilly fruity things personally.

WITCHES' BREW

The spelling of the word "playwright" really does not make a whole lot of sense, when you think of it. Not to mention that my mind IMMEDIATELY jumped to Phoenix Wright.

Shaw looks like Freud...

From what I know about Vishnu, he would probably be totally down with being displayed in a hot tub.

Also, technically he can have as many arms as he wants.

Ima Worrywart? IMA WORRYWART? Really? We're supposed to accept that?

North Sydney and The Rocks sounds like a good name for a band. LADIES AND GENTLEMEN, GIVE IT UP FOR NORTH SYDNEY AND THE ROCKS!

Ooh, Luigi was carrying a koala around? Man, those guys stink.

Is that bow made of Kevlar?

[doxinator.livejournal.com]

Haha, that was actually an old SNL reference 8D IT REALLY DOES DESCRIBE EVERY CLOWN EVER, THOUGH

Poison ivy? We used to have that growing in our old backyard, actually, so I used to get rashes from it all the time when I was younger, to the point where I just got used to them after a while 8D UNLESS YOU MEANT SOMETHING ELSE :O

Man, I had a sip of Guinness a couple years ago out of curiousity, though now I can't remember how it tasted at all. I think I remember it being pretty okay, though. It LOOKS neat, I can remember that much.

MAN SAME HERE I really can't hear the words "phoenix" or "wright" or any combination of the two anymore without thinking of Phoenix Wright. Actually, there's a lot of things I can't hear or see anymore without thinking of Phoenix Wright, but that's another story.

Hey, it does! I BET THEY'D SOUND LIKE JET

Oh yeah, aaaand icons:

[batneko.livejournal.com]

Okay! I will try to do this right!

1. Reply to this post, and I will pick three of your icons.
2. Make a post (including the meme info) and talk about the icons I chose.
3. Other people can then comment to you and make their own posts.
4. This will create a never-ending cycle of icon squee. Whoo!

We are on step two, yes? Well I will try to explain the icons. First of all, clearly, I am not very good at making these things. That first one there is from a comic I started but got bored with, about a super-villain. I stole the dialogue from Frisky Dingo. The second one is an exercise in absurdity...or just an attempt to make a funny line from Doctor Who even funnier. And finally, Tits Out for Breast Cancer, the awareness movement I am trying to start. Although that picture looks kind of weird with the shoulders cropped off. Oh well.

[melaniedavidson.livejournal.com]

Hahahahahahah *MONOCLE*

WOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO FIRE

Haha oh my god. XD GO FOR IT LUIGI.

AND THE RESTAURANT MENU

...Did they really save the bricks from the wall? :O

Man, where have I heard "Under the Linden Trees" before? I could swear that was the name for like... a song or a movie or a book or something. Unless I'm thinking of something else.

I bet you're thinking of Dragostea din tei... its name translates to "love from the linden trees" or something.

AND DRINK IT ALL UP

A park bench now? LOL.

Hahaha what there were actual companies for busting Koopas?

It looks just like an ordinary rock, too! God.

Oh wait, so THAT'S where the rock was from. :B So they just took one stone from it? Why not just take the whole Obelisk? I mean, they didn't have any trouble with those stairs.

"Tall buildings"
HEY, IT COULD BE.

BEER LABEL OH MY GOD they didn't even take the whole bottle just the LABEL HAHAHAHAHAH

If you think about it, though, just taking the beard would have probably damaged the statue pretty badly.

Oh, I know, right? It's like when they were passing out domains, that god slept in and had to take what was left, or something.

a nail
How can they even TELL that one's missing?

But a rickshaw wouldn't be a monument or anything, would it? I mean I'd think it would belong to one person. And sure, they'd be pissed about it being stolen, but. :O

hahhahahahah kangaroo ride.

I just do not understand why they keep leaving fire flowers there in the first place. :O ACCIDENT WAITING TO HAPPEN PUT SOMEONE'S EYE OUT :O

[doxinator.livejournal.com]

DO IT LUIGI DO IT

AND THE COINS FROM THE TREVI FOUNTAIN

I could swear I read something about how there was still gravel on the ground many years after they tore it down, though I'm not sure if that holds true today. I could be thinking of something else, though.

Yeah, I'm pretty sure that's what I was thinking of 8D I KNEW IT WAS A SONG

THEY'RE NOT EVEN TRYING ANYMORE, THEY'RE JUST GRABBING ANYTHING THEY CAN GET THEIR HANDS ON

Yeah, and didn't they steal a MURAL a while back? I will never understand this game.

I can just imagine one of them carefully peeling it off and another sitting next to him going like COME ON HURRY HURRY I THINK I HEAR SOMEONE COMING COME ON I CAN'T GO TO JAIL FOR THIS

BAH, NOTHING A LITTLE SUPER GLUE CAN'T FIX!

Hahahaha, seriously, imagine having to face all of your godfriends like that. "Yeah, I'm the God of, uh... fire." "... dude, that says tootha--" "NO IT DOESN'T IT SAYS FIRE"

MAYBE THEY SEND A GUY OUT THERE EVERY DAY TO COUNT ALL THE NAILS AND MAKE NOTE OF WHENEVER SOMEONE STICKS ANOTHER ONE IN
Or maybe it was the info booth lady's nail and her toothache came back :B

Haha, no kidding. THEN AGAIN, THIS IS COMING FROM A GAME WHERE THEY SHUT DOWN AN ENTIRE BREWERY OVER A MISSING BEER LABEL, SO

I don't get it, either. My only guess is that something about closing the portals triggers it, like maybe it's supposed to be a last resort weapon against whoever is closing them, but that still doesn't explain why they wouldn't just use that in the first place. I GOT NOTHIN'

[melaniedavidson.livejournal.com]

OTP BABY

Theoretically it's working, though, I mean the mayors and stuff seem to be pretty keen on getting all this random crap back. :B

NOBODY WILL EVER NOTICE.

And then all the other gods mysteriously get toothaches. XD

I guess that could make some sense. :O Gotta wonder why they don't try to use it, though (or if they can't... why would they have a weapon that can only be used against them? GOOD PLAN GUYS).

this comment will be less obnoxiously long

[bagofmagicfood.livejournal.com]

"There's one right in front of you!"

Oh, man. I don't think I ever actually tried asking where a Koopa was when it was already onscreen! That one's new to me!

I completely forgot to do this before, but if you click on the Koopalings then they'll say something to you.

NICE TRY, PLUNGER PUSS

Definitely a hotel I would stay at

Yeah, where do they fit the rooms in such a small building, anyway? Are they all underground?

HOW TO HAVE AN IRISH (apparently) ACCENT: SAY "SEE" AFTER EVERY SENTENCE

I guess he's trying to talk like a stereotypical movie gangster... But wait, how do you drop your wrench on his foot? I thought you were using a videophone to talk to him. Then again, don't you somehow use the videophone to physically return an item? I still don't really understand what's going on in this game.

also koalas are not BRIGHT YELLOW jesus. And that's a eucalyptus leaf he's chewin' on there. 8D

As I was saying before, just wait until the giant panda bear.

Re: this comment will be less obnoxiously long

[doxinator.livejournal.com]

The weird thing is that there wasn't even a Koopa onscreen when I came in :O DOES THAT KID SEE SOMETHING I DON'T

AN UNDERGROUND HOTEL WOULD BE KIND OF COOL ACTUALLY just as long as it wasn't in a flood-prone area

Haha, good point. I was going to guess that it had a teleporting device or some sort, but then that wouldn't explain why Mario couldn't just use that to get out :B So who knows. THIS GAME IS FULL OF MYSTERY

[bagofmagicfood.livejournal.com]

Maybe it JUST went offscreen before you got there, or something like that.

[bagofmagicfood.livejournal.com]

a nail
How can they even TELL that one's missing?

Wow, good point. It would have been way more awesome if the Koopas had stolen ALL the nails. Just imagine it... A tree full of holes...

[perytonlover.livejournal.com]

... why would they want that back, anyway?

I don't know either, since when the thing was broken down, people were allowed to take pieces of blocks FOR FREE. No, I'm not kidding. They were FRIGGIN SOUVENIRS. I'm sure that nobody would have cared, since just about everyone else had taken a piece of it, unless it was, like, in a museum or something.

[perytonlover.livejournal.com]

Yes I'm easily distracted why do you ask?

Anyway, I always thought 'see' was a gangster (meaning 1920s-1930s kind with striped suits and alcohol and guns and stuff) thing, why is it that a fire flower appears after you go through EVERY room, and why doesn't Luigi just bring one with him or something? ("'cause there'd be no game", I know, but still!) Also, I like your nail theory. Yes, I'm insane. I'd say something about Bowser Kids flirting with you, but then again, I have a super mad crush on ZEX. So yeah. And this game must be VERY old, since I remember seeing a Koala in a Zoo in the US before. I just can't remember where.

... BEER LABEL.
BEER LABEL.
