it's really funny how Nintendo keeps making spin off Mario games with their cast of characters and they only have like, 12 characters so they have to use "Baby Peach" or "Mario In A Tanuki Suit" or "Zelda From A Different Franchise"

and meanwhile there's about 12 billion sonic characters that every sonic fan would literally gouge out their eyes to see in a game and when Sega makes a crossover game they're like "lets use sonic, tails, knuckles... and uh, the taxi from crazi taxi!"

Technically Nintendo does have much more characters and they just choose to disregard them. Notably they could pull from any of the named characters in the RPGs (Fawful, Goombella, Koops, Vivian, etc.), but some fuck decided to toss everything but the "iconic" enemy types and that from now on just about every creature in Mario should be visually uniform and completely defined by their species, which is as fucked up as it is boring.

I wouldn't be so upset over the "pre-established character designs heavily emphasized" direction of the newer paper mario games if it weren't for how even the toads were often varied and interesting in the first two games.

Let me keep my unique toad characters miyamoto.
