seems rather violent for a Mario game O_o o_O besides, the nicknamed Hip and Hop were my fav bosses

What about the end of Mario is Missing? I heard it was a bit violent with Bowser and whatnot....

Was there something to suggest that it took place before Super Mario World?

Tails_155 · **Reply #23 on:** December 13, 2007, 11:59:20 PM

no it was made first I mean

Ah. Actually, I looked it up, and apparently, the game had different endings for the NES, SNES, and PC versions, so the cannonocity of any combination of them are in question.

Does it compare to Gannon's infamous "DIE!" expression in some whack Zelda CD-i game?

off topic, but indeed

Implying that Mario did the Koopa kids in for good is too violent for a Mario game? Landing on living creature's heads and crushing them flat isn't basically killing them in a borderline slasher flick kind of way? Or smashing in a being's skeleton with a jumbo sizeed hammer isn't violent? Its all the same to me, the only difference is that the Koopa kids have identities, rather than being random Goomba's that no one gives a rip about. Besides which, they're really only called "The Koopa Kids" because they're Bowser's offsrping. We don't actually know that they're really kids, persay. They could just be young adults. Its only in the SMW TV series that they're called kids, but I'd hardly call that canonical (just look at their inpertretation of Link from "The Legend of Zelda").

that being said, the good ol' Koopa kids have WAY more personality than Bowser jr. (shudders).

If they didn't die, maybe when they saw they were defeated they all moved to some nice tropical island to keep out of the constant battles between Bowser and the Mario brothers and their friends.

well, they've been in games after SMW, just not many

Well, they've come back in New Super Mario Bros. Wii now, so they aren't gone for good.

Also, I think they were in Mario and Luigi: Superstar Saga.
