Super Mario Timeline (Nate Clone)

Unlike other games series in their catalog, Nintendo has never confirmed officially how all the Super Mario games all fit together. So, I've looked through many articles, interviews, and game summaries to figure out how each of these games all interconnect, and created by take on the Super Mario Timeline. (This article only contains canon games)
Mainly inspired by this article, I've separated many group of games into sections, and have provided evidence for some of my more outlandish game placements.
I've also included "Events" in my timeline, which are important moments in the timeline that do not occur in one certain game, but must happen for one reason or another. 
If there are any inaccuracies present, please tell me in the comments, do not edit the article to fix it yourself. 
(NOTE: For the games taking place in the past, I will be speaking as if the past is the present. So, if there is a character from the present in a game from the past, I will be calling this character "from the future")
= Timeline #1 =
==Before Mario's Birth==
No games happen before Mario's birth, but a few important events take place.
===Event - Rosalina's Storybook===
The story begins a very long time ago, a young girl named Rosalina had recently gone through the sadness of losing her mother, sitting near her grave under a tree on the top of a hill almost every day to feel closer to her.
One day, however, she saw a crashed spaceship (Later dubbed “The Starshroom”) with a floating, star-shaped creature called a Luma inside.
Luma tells Rosalina that it was lost, as it had been separated from its mother. Rosalina decided to help the poor creature and promised to reunite Luma with its celestial mother. The two new friends repaired the Starshroom and left Rosalina’s planet.
Their journey begins with no signs of Luma’s mother, but they soon arrive at a turquoise comet, which Luma urges Rosalina to land on, as, presumably, this comet was Luma’s original home.
They find no life on the comet, but do find Star Bits, an edible, star-like object that is loved by the Lumas. Rosalina and Luma decide to stay on the comet. 
One night on the comet, Rosalina has a dream about her deceased mother, and awakes in tears, knowing that she will never see her mother again. Luma comforts her, telling Rosalina that it will take care of her.
Rosalina and Luma then constructed a house for themselves using materials under the comet’s ice, and later passed by other planets with more Luma on them, who believe Rosalina to be their mother. This attracts many more Lumas, who also believe that she is their mother, and Rosalina takes in and names each one she finds.
Rosalina’s sadness over her mother’s death begins to increase, the tipping point being seeing the tree where her mother is buried via telescope. Luma (Who will now be called Baby Luma to separate it from the others of its kind) tried to comfort Rosalina for many days, but to no avail.
Then, Baby Luma got an idea to help its friend. It created a large crater in the comet and reformed itself into a tail for the comet. The comet began to move much faster then before. The other Lumas tell Rosalina that transforming into objects like comets or planets is a Lumas’ destiny at some point in their lives.
Rosalina no longer mourned over her mother after that day, as, much like Baby Luma, she had to turn into something else; a mother for all the Lumas.
Time passes, and Rosalina continues to take care of her Lumas, and sends them off with a smile when one must accept their destiny.
===Event - The Star Festival Is Formed===
The comet’s tail that Baby Luma transformed into made the comet set the comet on a course that passed Rosalina’s home planet every one hundred years. The inhabitants of Rosalina’s home planet  saw the appearance of the comet above their planet’s skies every 100 years.
The comet was so close to the planet one year, Star Bits began to rain from the skies, which later formed into a great Power Star, (another form of a transformed Luma) which the citizens of the planet believed to be a gift from the comet.
Multiple Power Stars are presumed to land in the Mushroom Kingdom, a closed-off Kingdom from the rest of the world, which was found on a large island in the middle of the ocean. The Kingdom was very isolated, with only an archipelago of islands and a smaller, neighbouring kingdom being able to access the kingdom on foot.
Many of the Mushroom Kingdom's denizens believed the Power Stars to be guardians. Some Power Stars decided to stay in the Mushroom Kingdom, serving as the kingdom's protectors. (More specifically, The Mushroom Castle)
So, the citizens of the Mushroom Kingdom dubbed the event of the comet appearing above their skies “The Star Festival”.
===Event - Elvin Gadd Is Born===
Approximately 20 years before Mario's birth, Elvin Gadd is born. Nothing is known about his childhood, but it is known that Gadd always loved studying the paranormal, but also built many other types of inventions, such as a paintbrush with the ability to create life when painted with.
He built and moved a lab on the summit of Thwomp Volcano when he was approximately 20 years old, and he later held the title of "Professor".
===Event - Bowser Is Born===
Many years pass, and a few years before the next event in the timeline, the next heir to the Koopa throne is born, named “Bowser”, usually left under the watchful eye of the right-hand man to the royal family, the evil sorcerer; “Kamek”.
Bowser possesses some form of magical powers (dubbed “black magic”), possibly after studying Kamek’s magical abilities. (It could be possible that Bowser’s fire breath could be the work of his dark magic, but this has never been confirmed) 
But, Bowser’s magical abilities seen to be less powerful compared to Kamek, as the only magical ability that Bowser has been confirmed to possess is the power of shapeshifting himself and others. This could explain why most black magic is left to Kamek later in the timeline.
Bowser’s parents have never been seen or even mentioned, so it could be theorized that Bowser does not have any parents and Kamek is his parental figure.
(EVIDENCE: I feel like Bowser does have to be older than Mario and Luigi, as Bowser has fighting capabilities at a time where Mario and Luigi couldn’t even walk yet)
==Baby Mario and the Yoshis==
===Event - Mario and Luigi Are Born===
It is unknown who gave birth to them, but two brothers are born, named “Mario” and “Luigi”.
These two infants were very special, as they were two of the “Star Children”, seven children who all had magical stars within them, and each possessed an extraordinary amount of power due to said magical stars, all of whom were destined for greatness. All the Star Children also had a certain bond with each other that allowed them to find each other’s current location. The previously mentioned Bowser is also a Star Child, but no one knows this until a later game in the timeline.
(It is possible that the Star Children were created by the Lumas, as they could fit the title of “magical stars”. Lumas can also transform into different things, and it may be possible that they could either transform into a Star Child, or simply become one with a regular child. This would explain why Rosalina seemed to know who Mario was in a later game in the timeline, but this is simply a theory)
After the brothers were born, a stork was sent to deliver the brothers to their parents in the Mushroom Kingdom. (Due to a stork delivering babies to their parents is often a fictional tale told to children, it could be considered that, since this is all from a children’s game series, that a delivery from a stork could be how parents receive their children in this world)
The stork was given a map to the Mushroom Kingdom and sent off, the infant brothers in his beak. 
Meanwhile, Kamek senses the baby’s presence, and foresees that the two babies will cause great trouble for the Koopa Kingdom. Kamek and his minions, called “Toadies” set off to confront the stork and the babies, setting the stage for the first game in my timeline.
===Super Mario World 2 - Yoshi’s Island===
The stork flies above the clouds on a peaceful night, but that peace was quickly interrupted by Kamek and his Toadies, who attacked the stork in an attempt to get Mario and Luigi from him. Kamek manages to get a hold of Luigi, but, in all the chaos, the stork drops Mario, leaving him to fall into the deep blue sea.
He survived, however, and landed on the titular “Yoshi’s Island” on the back of a dinosaur-like reptile called a “Yoshi”.
The Yoshi did not know who the baby was or why it landed on his back. He finds the map to the Mushroom Kingdom that the stork was using, but discards it, as he presumably couldn’t read it.
The Yoshi takes the infant Mario to the other members of his species, and the other Yoshis are also clueless about who this baby was.
However, due to the bond between Mario and Luigi, with both being Star Children, Mario knew where his brother was, and tried to go there, but, Mario, being an infant, couldn't even walk.
The Yoshis infer that Mario wanted to go somewhere, so they decide to follow Mario’s directions and deliver him to where he wanted to go via a relay system between all the Yoshis.
However, the Yoshis quickly discovered that their once-peaceful island had been invaded by Bowser and Kamek’s minions: The Koopa Troop, and that 5 large fortresses had been built around the island.
The Yoshis destroy all the fortresses and are then teleported to the Koopa Kingdom, where the Yoahis reach Bowser’s fortress. 
Yoshi and Bowser fight, to which they win. But, Kamek heals the young prince, and Bowser grows into a ginormous, nearly invincible monster. The Yoshis manage to defeat him, and Mario reunites with his brother and the stork. The stork grabs the brothers and resumes his mission to deliver the infant brothers.
The game ends with the stork landing at a house in the Mushroom Kingdom and two unknown figures holding the infants in their hands.
===Yoshi’s New Island===
The two figures tell the stork that they were not expecting babies, and the stork realizes that he had gone the wrong direction, as a Yoshi had discarded the map to get to Mario and Luigi’s new home.
The stork quickly grabbed the babies and took to the skies once more. Kamek, flying back to the Koopa Kingdom after his previous defeat, sees an opportunity, and, once again, attacks the stork and kidnaps Luigi, causing Mario to fall below.
He lands on a floating island in the sky, called Egg Island. This island is home to more Yoshis, as one Yoshi discovers Mario and brings him to the others of his kind. Mario tries to get back to his brother, and the Yoshis decide to help him get back to his brother via a relay system.
Unfortunately, Bowser and Kamek had already invaded Egg Island. Bowser wanted to gain control of Egg Island and make it a summer home for himself, but he was ultimately stopped by the Yoshis.
The Yoshi’s fight Baby Bowser, but he is supersized by Kamek and a final showdown occurs in a lake of lava. The Yoshis win, and they reunite with the stork and Baby Luigi. The stork flies away after a farewell from the Yoshis of Egg Island.
The stork finally completes his mission, and Mario and Luigi are delivered to their true parents.
(EVIDENCE: If you are wondering why I did not list Yoshi’s Island DS, or how I did not mention time travel present in this game, both of those events involve characters traveling to the past, which would create a new timeline, so, for the time being, Yoshi’s Island DS and the bonus final boss to Yoshi’s New Island will not be listed in the timeline until a later point)
===Event - Peach, DK, & Wario are born===
Sometime before or during the events of this section of the timeline, the fourth, fifth, and sixth Star Children are born. They are born in an unknown order.
The first of these new Star Children is Princess Peach. Peach is the heir to the Mushroom Kingdom’s throne, hence her title; ‘Princess’, and is the only female of the seven Star Children. Peach will later possess magical powers, but her powers are much more defensive compared to Kamek and Bowser’s more offensive dark magic. Peach’s powers derive from her wishes, as, being one of the Star Children, she has a powerful connection with the stars. Her known powers are the ability to support herself and others with her powers of healing, as well as both telepathy and telekinesis.
Next is Wario. Wario was born as a greedy, selfish child, and he stayed this way throughout most of his life. It is unknown where Wario lives, but it can be theorized that he lived in the Mushroom Kingdom. Not much is known about Wario’s life until later games in the timeline, although it is established that Mario was once friends with Wario, but later became his rival.
Lastly is Donkey Kong. Donkey Kong is a brown gorilla, and had a father, also named Donkey Kong, but will later be called “Cranky Kong” as the father becomes older (and will be called Cranky Kong for this entire timeline). He is born on Donkey Kong Island, and Donkey, Cranky, and other members of the Kong family live on the island in peace until a later event in the timeline.
(EVIDENCE: Nintendo has stated that Cranky Kong is Donkey Kong’s grandfather, and that Donkey Kong Junior is Cranky's son. Although this is official information from Nintendo, it contradicts a statement from RareWare, the inventors of Cranky Kong and the Donkey Kong Country series, which states that Cranky Kong is Donkey Kong’s father, not his grandfather, and to ignore any other statements that contradict this. Even if Nintendo’s statement saying that Cranky is Donkey Kong’s grandfather is true, It doesn’t add up in terms of age and time, so I will be sticking to Rare’s statement about this family tree)
===Yoshi's Story===
After Bowser’s defeat in Yoshi’s New Island, he temporarily gives up capturing the Star Children, and attempts to get back at the Yoshis living on Yoshi’s Island for preventing his plans of capturing Mario and Luigi.
Bowser and Kamek learn of the Yoshi’s main source of happiness and harmony, the Super Happy Tree. Bowser becomes jealous of the Yoshi’s happiness, so he and Kamek attack the island and steal the Super Happy Tree, leaving the Yoshis living on the island with no happiness at all.
Kamek then uses a powerful spell to transform the entirety of Yoshi’s Island into a pop-up picture book.
After all this chaos unfolds and Bowser is long gone with the Super Happy Tree, six Yoshis are born inside this storybook. One of these newly-born Yoshis was green, and his name was “Yoshi”. (Who will be referred to as such, and other Yoshis will be referred to as “a Yoshi” or “The Yoshis”) Yoshi was the last Star Child to be born, but no one knew he was a Star Child in this timeline.
Yoshi and his siblings learn of Bowser’s crime and embark on a journey through the picture book to get the Super Happy Tree back.
They manage to defeat Bowser and Kamek and get the Super Happy Tree back to its rightful home, and Yoshi and all the inhabitants of Yoshi’s Island are happy once again.
(However, despite the fact that Kamek and Bowser were defeated, it is never made clear if Yoshi’s Island was ever turned back to normal, as it was turned into a pop-up picture book at the beginning of the story. In the ending cutscene and credits, it is still told in the form of a book, and the credits show the back of the storybook. But, Yoshi’s Island must have been reverted back to normal due to later games in the timeline showing that Yoshi’s Island is normal)
Yoshi’s Island was then presumably reverted back to normal.
(EVIDENCE: I’ve decided not to put Yoshi’s Woolly World or Yoshi’s Crafted World on this timeline, but they would go here if I did list them. I didn’t list them because both games appear to take place in completely separate worlds, and the only thing that sets their place in the timeline is the appearance of Baby Bowser and Kamek. It’s possible that Kamek used his magic to get to both Craft Island and the Yoshi’s home in Crafted World in both games. Or, maybe these games are simply just a child playing with crafting materials to create a story. Either way, both Woolly World and Crafted World would go here in the timeline, but they are so separate from the other Solo-Yoshi games that I can’t list them here)
===Mario and Luigi - Partners In Time (Past)===
On a planet far away, an alien race called the "Shroobs" live on a planet that is close to death for unknown reason. They wanted to find a new world to call home, and, during this search, they discovered the Mushroom Kingdom, and planned an attack on the planet.
In the Mushroom Kingdom, at least one year has passed since Yoshi's New Island, (Due to Mario and Luigi having the ability to walk and even fight) and Mario and Luigi are often invited to the Mushroom Castle to have play-dates with Peach, as the Star Children need to have a strong bond with one another through their lives, so a relationship needed to be formed between the three babies.
On one play-date however, Bowser (Now called "Prince Bowser") attacks the Mushroom Castle and tries to steal the infant Peach. Mario fights Prince Bowser, and he is defeated. 
Then, the Shroobs attack the castle, and Prince Bowser has a temporary truce with his enemy as he allows Mario, Luigi, Peach, and Peach's servant "Toadsworth" to escape with him on his flying battleship the Koopa Cruiser.
The Shroobs easily take over the Mushroom Castle and they being to spread across the entire kingdom.
Prince Bowser lands the Cruiser in Hollijolli Village, and Mario and Luigi see their future selves, defeated by the Shroobs. They defeat the Shroobs that attacked the Village and Mario an Luigi join forces with themselves to save both of their times.
The quartet travels throughout the Mushroom Kingdom, and finding the shards of an object called the Cobalt Star, that, went restored, will supposedly stop the Shroobs from taking over.
On their journey, the quartet goes to Thwomp Volcano, where they find E. Gadd in his laboratory on the summit of the volcano, who helps them continue their quest with some help from his future self. E. Gadd also decides to move to a new laboratory at the edge of Boo Woods, as an eruption from the volcano damaged his lab beyond repair.
The quartet eventually reaches the taken-over Peach's Castle, and destroy the Shroob Mothership, as well as Princess Shroob. However, After the quartet defeated her, the Princess Peach from the future reveals that she has the final shard of the Cobalt Star, but tells them not to restore it. However, Prince Bowser, in an act of selfishness and greed, swoops in, takes all the shards, and restores the Cobalt Star. But, this only makes things worse.
The Shroob Princess' older sister, Elder Princess Shroob is released from the Cobalt Star, as she was sealed inside by Princess Peach. Mario, Luigi, and their future counterparts must do battle with her. 
They just barely win, but almost all the inhabitants of the Mushroom Kingdom are still infected from the Shroobs magic, through a stroke of luck, the quartet discovered that the cure to the Shroobs infection can be cured from babies tears. Using an invention and some help from the future, baby's tears rain across the kingdom, curing anyone who was infected, and destroying all the remaining Shroobs (aside from a few kept and frozen by Prince Bowser).
After saving the baby's time period, Future Peach and the quartet go to the Mushroom Castle from the future, and Mario, Luigi, Peach, and Toadsworth bid farewell to their future selves and are sent back to their own time, setting everything back to normality. 
=== Event - E. Gadd Moves To Boo Woods ===
As stated in Partners In Time, E. Gadd moved from his now-destroyed lab in Thwomp Volcano to an underground bunker in the Boo Woods, and area infamous for Boo sightings. Boos are mysterious creatures, some pledge their allegiance to Bowser, but most simply stay rouge and haunt abandoned areas.
To keep himself safe from these spooky specters, E. Gadd creates a machine that is able to capture and contain Boos and other ghosts, dubbed "The Poltergust" E. Gadd uses and presumably upgrades this invention to keep himself safe and to study ghosts, and used another machine to turn them into paintings. 
Just before the events of Luigi's Mansion, E. Gadd had captured a whole family of ghosts, as well as a large amalgamation on Boos, named Boolossus, all captured and framed in paintings.
===Event - Mario Leaves The Mushroom Kingdom===
Learning of the power and importance of their children, Mario and Luigi's parents decide to privately leave their home of the Mushroom Kingdom to hide from the Koopa Kingdom to keep their children safe.
The family of four move the near other side of their planet, in the Metro Kingdom's capital; New Donk City, where they live for at least 20 years, with more games taking place during that time, as seen later.
(EVIDENCE: Although this event is very far-fetched, I do believe this event must occur, as many other games and events that take place in the timeline are very out of place and don't seem to line up properly if the Mario Brothers were to stay in the Mushroom Kingdom for the remainder of the timeline)
==Jumpman and Donkey Kong==
===Event - Donkey Kong Is Captured===
At some point, both Cranky Kong and Donkey Kong (Now called "Donkey Kong Junior") are kidnapped and taken away from DK Island. They are taken to a zoo in New Donk City, and Cranky Kong is forced to be behind bars. It is unknown what happened to Donkey Kong Junior during this time.
===Donkey Kong Circus===
Sometime later, a relative of Mario's family, named / nicknamed "Jumpman" for his jumping abilities, visited the New Donk City Zoo and saw Cranky Kong, now unwanted by the zoo. Jumpman took Cranky Kong in as his own, and thought of an idea to create a circus staring the ape, and managed to do so with great success, but Cranky Kong wasn't so happy...
(EVIDENCE: Jumpman and Mario cannot be the same person, as in Donkey Kong Junior, a halo is seen above "Mario's" head at the end of a game after falling a great height, a sign of death, and since Mario obviously needs to be alive for many other games in the timeline, Jumpman cannot be Mario.)
===Pinball===
Jumpman and his girlfriend; "Pauline" play a strange pinball machine that requires Jumpman to work the machine.
(EVIDENCE: Pauline is in it, so I believe it takes place here, although you could remove this game from the timeline with no change, so take this placement with a grain of salt)
===Donkey Kong===
Cranky Kong escapes from his captor and kidnaps Pauline and tries to take her far away. Jumpman chases after the ape through a construction site, where he utilizes the site's loose support beams to make Cranky fall on his head, reuniting Jumpman and Pauline.
===Donkey Kong (Game Boy)===
In a direct continuation from the previous game in the timeline, this drop on the head did nothing to Cranky Kong, and he simply grabbed Pauline once more and began a journey to get back to DK Island, while fighting back Jumpman along the way. He is also joined by Donkey Kong Junior.
Jumpman corners Cranky Kong in his fortress, where he is defeated twice and  is finally captured, not as a circus animal, but as simply a prisoner. Jumpman also reunites with Pauline, but their relationship would not last much longer.
===Donkey Kong Junior===
Jumpman locks up Cranky Kong and begins his long trek back to the Metro Kingdom. Donkey Kong Junior attempts to break out is father several times, leading the three back to the Metro Kingdom's construction site, where this chaos all began.
Donkey Kong Junior unlocks his father's cage and loosens a support beam, causing Jumpman to fall from a high height much like Cranky Kong, and dies from the fall.
===Donkey Kong 3===
After Jumpman's death, Cranky Kong and Donkey Kong Junior go into hiding, trying to find away back to their home. Pauline sends out a reward for anyone who can find and capture them. 
The two apes eventually decide to stay in a greenhouse, as it reminded them of their home. However, this paradise is interrupted by the owner of the greenhouse: Stanly the Bugman. Knowing of the reward on Cranky Kong's head, used his bug repellent and his smarts to stop the large ape.
He earns the reward, and Cranky Kong and Donkey Kong Junior, the authorities believing that they don't belong in the Metro Kingdom, are sent back to their home on DK Island, setting the stage for a later game series in the timeline.
==Mario's Odd Jobs In Metro Kingdom==
===Wrecking Crew===
Mario and Luigi, now in their mid to late teenage years, began to drift from job to job, looking for the right job that would suit them both.
The brothers' first job was working in demolition at a construction site, the very same site that Jumpman chased after Cranky Kong on. Mario and Luigi worked for their abusive boss, Foreman Spike, as he sometimes tried to attack the brothers with his demolition tools.
Mario quickly quit his job in the construction industry, but not without some new skills in acrobatics, needing to do lots of jumping to safely traverse the site, and having a mastery in demolition skills. Luigi, however, stayed behind and continued working there for the time being.
===Dr. Mario===
Mario then found work as a doctor, but was fired only after seeing 20 patients, where, although he did get rid of the viruses in their bodies, there was lots of excess medicine in the patients, which was infecting them even more. Even though he was fired, he still had some knowledge of the job that he later taught to his brother.
===Punch-Out!!===
Mario then tried a job that was much easier then being a doctor; a boxing referee. He got hired during a championship tournement, where he witnessed a rookie named "Little Mac" rise to fame, where the rookie just barely won the final match against Champion Mike Tyson.
After this championship ended, Mario was temporarily fired from his job at the ring. 
===Mario's Picross===
Not wanting to wait any longer, Mario got another job as an archaeologist, but was later fired due to his methods.
===Mario Paint / Mario Artist===
Mario then decided to try a line of work where he was his own boss; an artist. He painted many pieces of art and showed then off to the world. Much of his work often included his own likeness going on adventures, sometimes riding a green dinosaur Mario faintly recalled from his childhood.
However, the ever-adventurous Mario found the job to be boring after some time, so he hung up his beret and apron and quit his job as an artist, but not without leaving a large impact in the world of art.
===Game & Watch===
At vaious points in this era, some of the Game & Watch games take place, such as Mario Juggler, as some of the games fit the main theme of this era in the timeline. All of these Game & Watch games must happen before Wrecking Crew at the earliest and before Mario Bros. at the latest.
===Mario Bros.===
Luigi was fired from his job in demolition, so the brothers decided to pursue a job together, and they did! They found their true calling; plumbing. The brothers happily cleaned New Donk City's sewers and pipes for a time.
Meanwhile, back in the Koopa Kingdom, Bowser (now the true king of the Koopa Kingdom) had been on the hunt for the Star Children ever since the brothers had left the Mushroom Kingdom, and finally discovered that Mario and Luigi were living; New Donk City. Bowser sent his Koopa Army through the pipes that lead to the Metro Kingdom.
Mario and Luigi spot this army of turtles and crabs storming in through the sewer pipes, and the two brothers try to fight them off. After fighting off all the enemies that come through, the ever-adventurous Mario ventures deeper into the sewers to find the source of these enemies. Luigi reluctantly follows.
=== Mario Clash ===
After venturing deeper into the Metro Kingdom's sewers, Mario and Luigi find themselves exiting the sewers after finding a dead end.
They emerge on the surface inside an abandoned tower on the outskirts of New Donk City, dubbed the "Clash House Tower".
Many of invading Koopa Troops had taken the over Clash House Tower for their king. They had spawned many Warp Pipes for more troops to join them at the Tower, as well as destroying most of the tower's upper levels, including most of the level's floors.
Mario climbs up the tower, fighting off many of the invading minions, eventually cutting off the troops from accessing both the Clash House Tower, and the Metro Kingdom.
However, Mario is very curious about the invaders, not knowing who they were, wondering why they were after him and his brother, but still believing he had met them before. Mario found one of the Warp Pipes that Bowser's troops were using to reach them, and decided to go through it, despite his cowardly brother's plead to stay. Mario grabs his brother and they charge through the Warp Pipe.
==Return To The Mushroom Kingdom==
=== Event - Bowser Takes Over The Mushroom Kingdom ===
Around the time Mario Bros. and Mario Clash take place, Bowser attempts to take over the Mushroom Kingdom using his black magic after the failed missions of capturing Mario and Luigi.
However, his magic is reflected by Princess Peach’s own magic, so Bowser plans to kidnap Princess Peach so her magic won’t interfere with his.
He orders his minions to storm the Mushroom Kingdom Castle and kidnap the Princess. They do so, and Peach is taken back to Bowser’s Castle, on the outskirts of the kingdom.
With the Princess out of the picture, Bowser was free to use his black magic upon the Mushroom Kingdom and it’s residents turning the kingdom’s mushroom people (called “Toads”) into floating bricks and deadly plants. Bowser’s minions also easily took over many of the kingdom’s castles, both large and small, only leaving a few Toads free from Bowser’s magic for unknown reasons.
At this point, the entire Mushroom Kingdom was almost entirely under Bowser’s control.
Until two plumbers entered the picture.
===Super Mario Bros.===
Mario and Luigi emerged from the pipe from Clash House Tower, now nearly on the other side of the planet, in the Mushroom Kingdom.
Mario and Luigi quickly learned of the Mushroom Kingdom's takeover and the kidnapped Princess Peach. The heroic Mario decided to journey to Bowser's Castle, helping anyone they could along the way, and save the Princess from the vile Koopa King.
Luigi reluctantly follows. 
Along the way, some of the cursed Toads gift Mario for freeing them from their brick prison, using the small power they have left to gift them strange fungi and flowers that, when consumed, gave the brothers amazing power, like doubling their current size and height, or gaining pyrokinesis.
Using these powers, Mario and Luigi gained an advantage, and stormed many of the Kingdom's castles, which each had "Bowser" at the end of the, but they were all simply fakes, cloaked to look like Bowser using his black magic.
The two brothers eventually reached Bowser's Castle, where they fought, and defeated the real Bowser, and saved Princess Peach.
Once freed, Peach used her magic to turn the Mushroom Kingdom back to normal, and thanked Mario and Luigi for saving them.
Due to unknown circumstances, however, Mario and Luigi cannot return home to the Metro Kingdom, and decide to stay in the Kingdom.
Bowser is also revived, either due to his or Kamek's magic power.
=== Donkey Kong Country (Series) ===
Meanwhile, on DK Island, Cranky Kong and Donkey Kong Junior (Now just simply "Donkey Kong") are living in peace with the rest of their ape family.
But, running concurrent to Mario's adventures, multiple foes attempt to attack Donkey Kong, usually trying to rob him of his incredibly large banana hoard.
It is unknown when each of these games would take place, so I am assuming that this game simply runs concurrently to the main Super Mario series of games.
=== Super Mario 3D Land ===
Sometime later, a thunderstorm rains over the Mushroom Kingdom, sent by Bowser. This storm scattered the leaves of the kingdom's Tail Tree across the Mushroom Kingdom. The Tail Tree, being a landmark in the Mushroom Kingdom, grows Super Leaves, magical leaves similar to the Mushrooms and Flowers gifted to Mario by the cursed Toads during their last adventure. 
Bowser, knowing of the Super Leaves magical powers, rounds up most of the scattered Super Leaves, using them on his minions, giving them a long, brown tail and the power to glide through the air. With this newfound power, Bowser quietly sneaks into The Mushroom Castle and easily kidnaps Peach once again, but, somehow, a photo is taken of the kidnapping to warn Mario.
The following morning, the storm had faded, and Mario and three of Peach's Royal Guard (two of them known as "Bucken-Berry" and "Ala-Gold", and the third I will just call "Toad") were taking a stroll through the Castle's courtyard to see if the storm caused any damage. The notice the now-completely bare Tail Tree, rid of all it's Super Leaves. Mario and the Toads also find the photo of Peach's kidnapping, leading Mario to dash to the Koopa Kingdom to save the Princess once again.
However, as Mario learns from more letters from Peach, Peach had attempted to escape Bowser's clutches herself, but she is captured, again, and is then kept inside a golden cage always in Bowser sight.
After a long journey, Mario reaches Bowser's Castle, where he finds the unguarded princess tied up on a Goal Pole. Mario falls for this trick, and runs closer. Bowser falls from above, prepared to destroy his adversary. However, Mario and Bowser's combined weight causes the floor below them to break, leading the two to fall down.
From there, Mario gives chase to Bowser, trying to reach Peach before him while traversing Bowser's crumbling castle. Mario eventually does, and reunites with his princess. From there, Mario and some Toads use Super Leaves to glide back to the Mushroom Kingdom, with Peach in Mario's arms.
However, Mario later learns that Bowser had survived his defeat, now a sentient skeleton dubbed "Dry Bowser" and had kidnapped Luigi, keeping him in an alternate world. Mario finds an opening to this alternate world, saves his brother, and the two continue to adventure this new world, defeating Dry Bowser in the process.
Sometime later, Peach learns that she can use the power of Super Leaves, as well, a power she never knew she possessed. 
Dry Bowser is then revived and returned to his normal self.
=== Super Mario Bros. 3 ===
Bowser was quick to retaliate after this defeat, however. Instead of simply conquering the Mushroom Kingdom, Bowser sets his sights higher, and tries to take over the entire world, once again turning Toads into bricks and plants, but now turning the kings of many of the world's kingdoms into other defenceless animals, and stealing their magic scepters.
Bowser gave these scepters to his newly-hired group of Koopas; The Koopalings, to increase each of their magical powers, and sent a large fleet of airships to each of these conquered lands. 
With the Mushroom Kingdom and the entire world in jeopardy, Mario and Luigi set off by the order of Peach to rid Bowser and his minions of all 7 of the kingdoms he has conquered.
Mario and Luigi defeat all the Koopalings, return the stolen scepters, and freeing the kings of their curse. 
When all 7 kingdoms are saved, Mario and Luigi are informed that taking over the kingdoms was simply a diversion to lure Mario and Luigi away from the Princess so Bowser could kidnap her, which he did.
With no time to waste, Mario and Luigi go to Bowser's base of operations in Dark Land (later known as the Koopa Kingdom), just barely survive his fleets of airships and tanks, and finally storm his castle.
Bowser attempts to crush the brothers, but he did not realize the fragile floor of his own castle, so Mario and Luigi lured Bowser to crush his own floor, leading him to fall through it, defeating him. 
After Mario's longest and most difficult adventure yet, he finally saves the Princess, and they return to the now-peaceful Mushroom Kingdom.
=== Event - Bowser Junior Is Born ===
Less than 7 years before Super Mario Sunshine, Bowser becomes a father to a baby turtle who looks distinctly like him, which Bowser believed he could be his successor, even naming him "Bowser Junior". It is unknown who gave birth to Bowser Junior, but it has been confirmed that Bowser and his son's relationship is biological, so the theory of adoption is out of the question.
As Junior grows up, Bowser teaches him about the Mushroom Kingdom and his failed schemes to take over it. Junior is presumably uninterested or confused about why his father kidnaps Princess Peach. To get his son more interested in his schemes, Bowser lies to Junior, telling him that Princess Peach was Junior's mother, and that Mario kidnapped her.
This lie gives Junior the motivations to want to join his father in the conquest to save his "mother" from Mario. 
Junior spent the first 5-6 years of his life training to be just like his father. He created a replica of his father's own hovering vehicle, The "Koopa Clown Car", he often trained with and loved the Koopalings, (even mistaking them for his siblings, at one point) and was eager to get into the spotlight and fight Mario, and this eagerness stayed with him as he grew up.
== The Weakening Of The Koopa Kingdom ==
=== Super Mario World ===
After their most exhausting adventure yet, Mario, Luigi, and Princess Peach decided to take a trip to a stretch of tropical islands, known as "Dinosaur Land" by Mushroom Kingdom denizens. Unbeknownst to them, a section of Dinosaur Land is actually Yoshi's Island, the same island that the infant Mario traversed on a group of Yoshi's backs, which has now been freed from Kamek's curse, and separated into 6 separate regions. 
When the Mario brothers and the Princess land on Dinosaur Land via hot-air balloons, Luigi notices strange feathers on the ground. These feathers, much like other strange objects that brothers have seen, give them magical powers. These feathers give the brothers capes that allows for flight and gliding. 
While the brothers fly around the peaceful island using these feathers, Bowser kidnaps Peach before Mario and Luigi come back to check on her. 
Bowser quickly kidnapped many of the island's Yoshis into eggs, and trapped them in floating bricks. Although, Bowser's army was much smaller due to his previous defeat, in which all of Bowser's minions were hunted down and captured when the kings of the world were returned to normal and regained their magic powers. Bowser attacked with what soldiers he had left, and hoped that many of the wild, feral native creatures of Dinosaur Land would stop any trespassers. The Koopalings also invaded, building large castles on each region of the island, each keeping a unhatched Yoshi egg for themselves.
Mario and Luigi then set off to free Dinosaur Land of Bowser's forces. Mario also freed many Yoshis throughout his travels, and also meets Yoshi (The green Yoshi from Yoshi's Story) and the two quickly become good friends. 
After trekking through all 6 regions of Dinosaur Land, Mario, Luigi, and Yoshi mange to defeat all 7 Koopalings and save 7 unhatched Yoshi eggs, but still with no sign of Peach or Bowser. But, after investigating a sunken ship, an entrance to Bowser's base appears; The Valley Of Bowser.
Mario and Luigi storm the castle and defeat Bowser once again, saving the Princess in the process. With Dinosaur Land saved, Mario, Peach, Yoshi, and all the unhatched Yoshi eggs are taken back to Yoshi's House, where they all hatch into Baby Yoshis. With no sign of Bowser or his minions, Mario, Peach, Yoshi and his friends take a well-deserved vacation in Dinosaur Land. When Mario and friends return home, Yoshi also joins them, as he had grown a bond with Mario after their adventure.
(Although many believe that the ending line of text in Super Mario World implies that this game is a prequel to Super Mario Sunshine, I believe that the "vacation" spoken of in this ending text is simply Mario and his friends staying in Dinosaur Land to vacation. And, the ending text states that "Mario, Peach, Yoshi, and his friends" will be going on this vacation, while, in Super Mario Sunshine, only Mario, Peach, and some Toads go to Isle Delfino. Yes, there are Yoshis on the Island, but they are all in eggs, and "Yoshi" is not present, otherwise he would have arrived with Mario and Peach. And, although you could consider Toads to be Mario's friends, Luigi is not present in the game, when he was adventuring with Mario in Super Mario World, and Luigi is quite obviously Mario's friend)
=== Wrecking Crew '98 ===
Just before taking over Dinosaur Land, Bowser ordered his minions to build several high-rises in the Mushroom Kingdom, even getting help from Mario's old rival, Foreman Spike in Metro Kingdom to build them.
When Mario returned from Dinosaur Land, he discovered these high-rises all over the Mushroom Kingdom, with one even directly in front of his house. These high-rises also blocked the sun, depriving the local plant life of sunlight
Mario, jumping right back into action, recalled working at a demolition site in the Metro Kingdom, and he grabbed the very same hammer and hard hat from his house he used in his old job, and embarks on a mission to demolish the offending structures.
Bowser also returns from Dinosaur Land, and prepares to defeat Mario as he reaches the final standing high-rise, but fails. 
Mario then reunites with Peach and Luigi, while Bowser attacks Foreman Spike for failing. He is then presumably returned to the Metro Kingdom.
=== Super Mario 64 ===
Peach, believing that Mario deserves a reward for all the help he's done, especially during the incidents of Super Mario Bros. 3 and Super Mario World, she and her Toads begin to prepare a large cake for Mario, and Peach invites the plumber over.
Mario arrives on the Castle Grounds, excited to relax with the Princess, but doesn't find her in the castle, only a haunting, familiar laugh throughout the halls and many of the castle's doors sealed shut.
Unbeknownst to Mario, Bowser had just commenced one of his most elaborate plans yet; he had learned of the Star Festival and the Power Stars that protected the Mushroom Castle, and Bowser planned to steal and scatter the Power Stars, leaving no protection on the sanctuary that once was the Mushroom Castle.
Bowser easily stole the Power Stars, and used their power to hide the Princess, a curse that could only be undone by the Power Stars. 
Bowser also used his dark magic combined with the Power Stars to summon magical paintings, which each held a portal to a distant world found in faraway galaxies, and plans to control each of these world's denizens to rebuild his army and take over the Mushroom Kingdom and beyond.
He sealed many of the castle's doors shut, and scattered the Power Stars throughout many of these worlds.
Luckily, Mario (followed by a friendly Lakitu who filmed Mario's adventures) was quick to notice the magical paintings, and learned of the scattered Power Stars, and began to collect them, breaking the seal of many locked doors with them, finding keys to new floors of the castle, and finding some Secret Stars in the castle that even Bowser didn't find.
Mario eventually reaches the very top of the Mushroom Castle, where he confronts Bowser, in a climatic battle with Bowser at his full strength. Mario just barely manages to win, and Bowser fades away, only leaving a giant Grand Star. Mario uses the Grand Star's power to fly back to the Mushroom Kingdom, and uses the Star to make Peach reappear.
Peach thanks Mario, giving him a kiss, which pleases him. Peach then resumes baking a cake with the help of some Toads.
Bowser, unsurprisingly, was revived after this incident by Kamek.
=== Super Mario RPG - Legend Of The Seven Stars ===
It is presumed the Peach takes the finished cake is taken to Mario's House at the end of Super Mario 64, as Peach and Mario are seen relaxing at his house when Super Mario RPG begins, setting it directly after Super Mario 64 (Note that Mario's house in Wrecking Crew '98 looks nearly identical to Mario's House in this game, proving this game placement in the timeline)
After Mario finishes his cake, Peach relaxes in a flower meadow outside of Mario's House. 
However, Bowser, seeing his opportunity, kidnaps Peach and takes him to his keep. Mario gives chase.
Being an unplanned kidnapping, Bowser doesn't keep Peach for long, as Mario manages to defeat Bowser. But, out of nowhere, a giant sword falls from the sky and falls directly into Bowser's Keep, launching Mario, Bowser, and Peach far away. This event also causes most of Bowser army to scatter, with most of them being brainwashed by Smithy (an invading extraterrestrial) and his minions, shrinking Bowser's Army even smaller than is was, previously. 
Mario lands back at his house, who quickly informs the Mushroom Kingdom Chancellor of what occured, and is tasked with finding Peach.
Along the way, Mario meets up with two new friends, a "frog" named Mallow, and a defender of the Star Road, Geno, the latter of whom tells Mario why is on Earth. Due to Smithy and his gang, the Star Road (the connection between children's wishes and the wish-granters up above) was destroyed and split into seven stars, and Smithy is on the hunt for each piece. Mario decides to look for the Star Pieces before Smithy can get them all.
Along the way, Mario even becomes allies with Bowser, whom had lost his keep and many of his minions, and Mario also reunites with Peach, who also helps in their journey.
Near the end of their journey to restore the Star Road, Mario and company are forced to fight a giant egg, which soon hatches into a creature named Birdo. Mario will remember seeing this creature due to the events of a later game in the timeline.
After reaching the keep with 6 of the 7 Star Pieces, Mario, Mallow, Geno, Bowser, and Peach challenge Smithy, who has the final Star Piece. Mario's party defeats him and Geno returns to the stars to restore the Star Road. 
=== Super Mario Sunshine ===
Sometime after Super Mario RPG, Bowser Junior found Professor E. Gadd, and, through an unknown series of events, gives Junior one of his inventions; The Magic Paintbrush, which can create paint and graffiti that could come to life or be able to transport one to different places.
Bowser, learning that Mario and Peach are planning to vacation to a tropical island called Isle Delfino, Bowser and Junior decide to arrive before them and frame Mario for several crimes, with Bowser Junior possibly using the Magic Paintbrush to form is body to look like Mario's.
Junior (disguised as Mario) quickly vandalizes all of Isle Delfino with graffiti, with some of it even becoming sentient, with many of the island's denizens; "Piantas", believing Mario to have commited the crime, but are not able to capture Junior. 
Junior also vandalizes the "Shine Gate", a monument and the resting place of the "Shine Sprites" (a type of magical object similar to a Power Star), upsetting the Shine Sprites, causing them to scatter from the Shine Gate all around Isle Delfino. 
Sometime later, Mario, Peach, Toadsworth, and five of Peach's Royal Guard come to vacation in Isle Delfino, but Peach notices the disguised Junior multiple times, with no one else seeing him. Mario and company are shocked by the absurd amount of graffiti preset on the island, even on the island's airstrip. 
Mario goes to investigate the graffiti, eventually finding a strange machine; The Flash Liquidizer Ultra Dousing Device (also known as the F.L.U.D.D.), another invention by E. Gadd, which is a multi-functional water-spraying device, although it is unknown why it is on Isle Delfino. 
Using F.L.U.D.D., Mario is able to get rid of the Airstrips Graffiti, but is quickly arrested by the Police of the island, who tell his group of the crimes "Mario" has commited. 
Using, F.L.U.D.D., Mario begins to clean up the island's graffiti to prove his innocence, also retrieving many of the scattered Shine Sprites along the way, with Bowser Junior spying on him, leading to him kidnapping Peach while Mario did not expect it. 
Junior, still disguised as Mario , brings Peach to a giant robot under the lake of Isle Delfino's amusement park, revealing both the robot and his true identity to Mario and Peach (Which both the Magic Paintbrush and F.L.U.D.D are confirmed to have been created by E. Gadd). Mario fights the large robot, but Junior flees with Peach to the island's volcano, Corona Mountain. 
Mario continues to chase down Bowser Junior, and cleaning up the graffiti at many of the island's landmarks, but one location in particular, The Serena Beach Hotel and Casino, was haunted by a group of rouge Boos, separated from Bowser's army. Mario stormed the hotel and found a very large Boo with a crown atop his head, called "King Boo". King Boo had never heard of Mario, and simply thought him to be a helpless intruder. 
Mario managed to defeat him thanks to the King's sensitive tongue by feeding him large peppers. King Boo develops a grudge against Mario due to this defeat, and he and his Boo Army retreat, deciding to stay in Boo Woods. 
Mario eventually was able to enter Corona Mountain, and triggered some machines that launched him and F.L.U.D.D. high in the sky, on a floating hot tub that Bowser and his son were relaxing in, with the Princess trying to avoid the water. 
Mario arrives, and Bowser is furious that he disturbed his "family" vacation, and tries to fight him. Mario uses F.L.U.D.D's capability to destroy the weak point of the hot tub, but severely damaged F.L.U.D.D. in the process. 
After destroying the hot tub, Mario, F.L.U.D.D., Peach all fell from the sky and landed on near the island's plaza. F.L.U.D.D. then loses consciousness due to all the strength he used in their final fight. However, he is able to be repaired by the Toads, and Mario, Peach, and their friends have a relaxing vacation. 
Meanwhile, Bowser and Junior land on a distant island from Isle Delfino, and Bowser reveals that Peach is not his true mother, but Junior forgives him for lying, simply saying that he wants to fight Mario, again. Bowser is proud of his son's dedication as they return to the Koopa Kingdom for some well-deserved rest. 
However, no one saw Bowser after his defeat, leaving many to believe that the Koopa King and his son had died, a native to Isle Delfino later found Junior's Magic Paintbrush on the island's shores. 
=== Dr. Luigi ===
Luigi had stayed in the Mushroom Kingdom the events of Super Mario Sunshine, to build a new house for he and his brother to live together in.
However, he learns that a virus has spread across the Mushroom Kingdom, and, with Mario away, all hope seems lost. 
Luigi, however, knowing of Mario's occupation as a doctor, decides to use the skills he learned from Mario to cure the Mushroom Kingdom of this virus, which he does.
=== Luigi's Mansion ===
Meanwhile, King Boo, after being defeated by Mario, was quick to learn more about Mario and create a revenge scheme to capture him. King Boo attacked E. Gadd (now an elder), and freed Boolossus from it's painting, and the two uses their combined power to freed all of E. Gadd's captured ghosts. 
King Boo, Boolossus, and all the freed ghosts (called "Portrait Ghosts") used their powers to conjure the Portrait Ghost's old home, which had presumably been destroyed; a large, 4-floor mansion, which was placed atop a hill in Boo Woods.
King Boo then sends a letter to Luigi, the letter containing a map to this newly-created Mansion, the latter saying that he had won the mansion in a contest, to lure the brothers in and kidnap them in paintings.
Shortly after Mario returned from Isle Delfino, they received the letter and map, and Mario arrived at the mansion first, much to Luigi's annoyance.
E. Gadd sees Mario arrive at the mansion, but does not say anything to him. Mario quickly gets captured by King Boo, but manages to write a note to Luigi before being trapped in a painting. 
E. Gadd rushes into the mansion to save Mario using the Poltergust, but he is far too old and weak to capture all the ghosts in the manor.
Luigi then arrives in Boo Woods, following the map to "His" new mansion. He goes inside, but finds it dark and empty. Ghosts quickly show up to capture him, however, but he is saved by E. Gadd, who tries to suck the ghost up with the Poltergust, fails, but scares the ghost away. Luigi and E. Gadd then retreat to the latter's secret lab.
Luigi learns of the Portrait Ghosts freedom and his brother's capture, and decides to use E. Gadd's Poltergust 3000 to suck all the ghosts in the manor, liberate the Boos, and save his brother.
As Luigi defeated the Portrait Ghosts, E. Gadd turned them back into paintings, keeping then save and hidden from the Boos.
Luigi also finds many of Mario's belongings around the mansion, a spare hat, shoe, glove, the letter he had written, and even a Power Star Mario had kept from the events of Super Mario 64.
Luigi learns more about Mario's fate from the only friendly ghost in the manor, Madame Clairvoya, who tells Luigi that the presence of Bowser could be seen within the manor, despite the fact the many believed that Bowser was killed from his defeat in Super Mario Sunshine, believing that King Boo has revived Bowser. 
(In actuality, King Boo had simply used his powers to create a mechanical Bowser to control, based upon the large Mecha-Bowser Bowser Junior had used in Super Mario Sunshine)
With this new knowledge, Luigi defeats all the Portrait Ghost and Boolossus, and unlocks King Boo's Secret Alter at the basement of the mansion. Before fighting Luigi, King Boo notes that Mario has caused in trouble in the past, referencing his defeat in Sirena Beach in Super Mario Sunshine. King Boo then used his mechanical vessel, sucking Luigi into some kind of created dimension where King Boo can use his full strength as "Bowser". 
Luigi managed to destroy both the robot Bowser, and King Boo, and returned the painting of Mario to E. Gadd's lab. King Boo is then turned into a painting, pleasing E. Gadd greatly, now having a complete collection of ghosts. E. Gadd remarks that Luigi had collected quite the fortune on this mission, collection somewhere between 50 to 60 million gold.
Then, using the Ghost Portrificationizer (the machine he used to turn all the captured ghosts into paintings) backwards, E. Gadd turns Mario from a painting back to his old self, although dizzy and unconscious. Luigi is overjoyed to see his brother again, despite Mario barely remembering anything from the game's events.
The haunted mansion disappeared from atop the hill, and Luigi decided to use his fortune to build a new mansion where the old one once stood; which becomes a spacious house, but Luigi stays with his brother at their house in the Mushroom Kingdom while he heals.
(This game only takes place over the course of one night, explaining the throwaway line in the next game in the timeline, as Super Mario Sunshine is confirmed to take place shortly after the next game)
=== Mario & Luigi - Superstar Saga + Bowser's Minions ===
In the Beanbean Kingdom, a kingdom sharing a border with the Mushroom Kingdom, of which its inhabitants are almost all Beanish folk, an evil Bean witch named "Cackletta" and his psychotic assistant; "Fawful" plan to take over the Beanbean kingdom by stealing the kingdom's most prized artifact; "The Beanstar" a magical type of Power Star (that may be a stronger form of a Green Star) that has the ability to grant wishes.
However, in order to awaken and Beanstar and use its power, it must be awoken by a pure voice, and Princess Peach is the only person known to possess such a voice, so Cackletta and Fawful plan to disguise themselves as the Beanbean Kingdom Goodwill Ambassadors, and tricking Peach into accepting a gift that will take her voice away to awaken the Beanstar.
The Prince of the Beanbean Kingdom, Peasley, hears of this evil plan, and quickly goes to the Mushroom Kingdom to warn Peach.
Peach and Toadsworth hear the news, and decide to disguise Birdo (The strange creature hatched in Nimbus Land in Super Mario RPG) as Peach, so Cackletta steals Birdo's voice, which will presumably be unable to awaken the Beanstar. Peach, Toadsworth, and Peasley do not tell anyone else about this plan.
When the disguised Cackletta and Fawful arrive, they pose as Lady Lima, the Beanbean Kingdom Goodwill Ambassador, and her assistant, respectively. They trick "Peach" into accepting a gift from her, which is actually is a machine to steal their voice. The disguised Birdo's voice is stolen, with Cackletta and Fawful not suspecting a thing. The real Peach and Toadsworth laugh at Cackletta's incompetence behind a curtain, nearby. The two villains flee the Mushroom Castle, setting course for the Beanbean Castle.
Toad learns of this attack, (with him and everyone else believing that the real Peach's voice was stolen) and goes to warn Mario and Luigi. Mario (now fully healed from his capture in Luigi's Mansion) jumps into action with Luigi being dragged along behind him.
Mario and Luigi arrive at the Mushroom Castle, but find Bowser trying to kidnap "Peach". Mario tries to defeat him. but the battle is halted by a Toad, who explains the situation to Mario, Luigi, and Bowser, telling the brothers to get "Peach's" voice back from Cackletta. Bowser calls a truce with the brothers, believing that he could easily kidnap the Princess once her voice was found, and readies his "Koopa Cruiser" to go to the Beanbean Kingdom.
(Although Peach was perfectly safe, she only wanted the brothers to get Birdo's voice back for his sake)
Bowser rounds up his remaining minions, which he only has about 15 due to his numerous defeats, and the Cruiser take off. Luigi, wanting to stay behind, gets caught by Bowser due to his stubbornness.
Mario and company are then encountered by Fawful, Cackletta's assistant, who attempts to defeat the brothers. (Fawful always faked his allegiance to Cackletta, and planned to betray and destroy her at the right moment, even building large robots to assist in this) He fails, but destroys the Koopa Cruiser's engines, sending the ship crashing into Stardust Fields, scattering the Cruiser's inhabitants all over the kingdom.
Mario and Luigi land near the Border of the Mushroom Kingdom, so the brothers, make their way through the fields, eventually finding Bowser trapped in a cannon by the supposed king of Stardust Fields, Tolstar. After defeating Tolstar, Bowser is launched from the cannon to locations unknown to the brothers.
The brothers continue their quest to find Birdo's voice, scaling a massive mountain and defeating a large dragon, who was actually a cursed Prince Peasley (Cackletta presumably cursed Peasley on her way to the Beanbean Castle), meet a pterodactyl-like creature named "Blablanadon", and then arrived at Beanbean Castle, which had just been attacked by Cackletta.
Mario and Luigi arrived at the castle with Cackletta, disguise as Lady Lima ordering them to fix the castle's leaking pipes, which was done to distract the brothers as she and Fawful stole the Beanstar, and made Queen Bean, the leader of the kingdom, swallow a Belly Belch, making her possessed and muscular. 
Mario and Luigi freed the real Lady Lima and other Beanish folk, and emerged to find the possessed Queen Bean, whom they defeat. 
Mario and Luigi are then sent to retrieve an antidote to the effects of the Belly Belch, a type of cola. While doing this, they run into Popple, a Beanish thief, and his "rookie", an amnesiac Bowser, whom they defeat, as well as the cola itself, returning it to Queen Bean, curing her. 
The brothers are then sent to Woohoo Hooniversity, where Cackletta is hiding out. They find and fight Cackletta, and win, bringing her to the verge of death. Fawful, however, uses his machines to suck up her essence, and Peasley arrives and launches the two villains away,
Due to Birdo's voice being used to awaken the Beanstar, the Beanstar awakes in a rage, taking to the skies. Mario, Luigi, joined by Popple and Bowser (whom were trying to steal the Beanstar for themselves) grabbed onto the Beanstar, but they all fall off, Bowser landing in Stardust Fields (but not before regaining his memory), whom is found and possessed by Cackletta.
The Beanstar's anger then goes out of control, splitting into four pieces, which scatter across the kingdom. 
Mario and Luigi wake up on a tropical island, and gain new powers, allowing them to return to the mainland, and soon learn the Princess Peach is coming for a visit to the Beanbean Kingdom. The brothers are horrified by this news, but still assist in clearing up the kingdom's airstrip.
When Peach arrives in the Beanbean Kingdom, she reveals that her voice was never stolen and her, Toadsworth's and Peasley's elaborate plan. With Cackletta presumed dead, Peach decides to go to Little Fungitown, a town in skies for Mushroom Kingdom immigrants. 
The brothers escort her there, where Mario and Luigi indulge in the village's arcade, where Mario wins a strange Mushroom. He eats it, but contracts Bean Fever from it, a virus that could turn Mario into a bean, leaving Luigi to find Crabbie Grass to cure Mario, as the doctors have run out of it.
Luigi is too scared to go alone however, but meets a hypnotist named "Dr. Toadley" who hypnotizes Luigi into thinking he's the brave and heroic Mario. Luigi then retrieves the Crabbie Grass, but returns to Little Fungitown to see Peach being kidnapped by Bowser possessed by Cackletta, calling herself "Bowletta", who flees. 
Luigi then revives Mario with the Crabbie Grass, and the two return to the Beanbean Castle, who learn of the scattered Beanstar pieces, which Bowletta, via message, tells the brothers that she will give them back Peach if the Beanstar is given to her.
The brothers then collect the Beanstar pieces and restore the Beanstar, but devise a plan to trick Bowletta and Fawful with a fake Beanstar, and begin to scale a snowy mountain when Bowletta is found. 
Fawful sees right through their trick, and steals the real Beanstar from the brothers, but Luigi disguises himself as Peach to trick Bowletta into believing the real Peach is an imposter. Bowletta believes this trick, as she captures Luigi and returns the real Peach to Mario. 
Luigi is caught, however, and flees and newly-repaired Koopa Cruiser with the Beanstar. Bowletta enraged, she sets a course for the Mushroom Kingdom lifting Bowser's Castle into the skies above the Beanbean Kingdom, shooting from the castle's cannons down to the Beanbean Castle Town.
Mario and Luigi, with the help of Blablanadon, reach the floating castle, defeat the seven brainwashed Koopalings, Fawful (who is launched out of the castle but survives and goes into hiding) as well as Bowletta, and Cackletta's soul, destroying Cackletta and returning Bowser to normal.
Prince Peasley then sets a bomb to destroy the castle, and Mario and Luigi manage to escape in time, but Bowser awakes from unconsciousness just in time for the bomb to go off, launching him somewhere unknown, but is found by some unknown Beanish folk.
Mario, Luigi, Peach, and Toadsworth then leave for the Mushroom Kingdom, with Prince Peasley leaving their party a "gift", which, in actuality, is actually Bowser, who is returned to the Koopa Kingdom on the way back to the Mushroom Kingdom.
E. Gadd can also be encountered this game, where it is shown that he is now capturing ghosts himself, but is straying away from the studies of the paranormal. But, after drinking some of some "Starbeans Coffee", he decides to expand his paranormal research even further after completing his newest invention.
He is also shown creating an invention called the "Super Poltergust 3001", an upgraded model of the Poltergust 300 that can be driven, and still suck up ghosts.
Running concurrently to Mario & Luigi - Superstar Saga, we see the efforts of the other survivors of the Koopa Cruiser's crash; Bowser's minions. The so-called "captain" of these troops; Captain Goomba is on a quest to find Bowser and un-brainwash all of the infected minions, and many more details are learned about upcoming games in the timeline, the creation of new characters, or explaining unknown details from the original game.
These details include;
* The debut of Bowser's Elite Trio, a group of strong minions.
* The debut of Starlow, A Star Sprite, who is seen entering a beauty contest.
* Bowser amnesia is shown to be caused by Captain Goomba landing on his head, knocking both of them out.
* The Invincibility Mushroom did not give Mario Bean Fever, Bowser's Minions simply gave the Toad running the arcade a Poison Mushroom.
* E. Gadd is also encountered, who states that he is building a time machine (he presumably says this before deciding to continue his paranormal research).
Throughout the minion's adventure to get their king back, they were slowly rebuilding their army by un-brainwashing many of their own minions, as well as recruiting some Beanbean Kingdom natives.
The minions end up saving all of the other minions, and the Koopalings, and follow the wrapped-up Bowser back to the Koopa Kingdom. Captain Goomba is demoted from his position as Captain for giving Bowser amnesia. 
Everything returns to normal, except that Bowser's army is bigger than it ever has been, and preparations to lay siege on the Mushroom Kingdom began almost immediately. 
== Bowser's Resurgence ==
=== New Super Mario Bros. ===
After returning home from the Beanbean Kingdom, Mario, Luigi, and Princess Peach had a small moment of peace in the Mushroom Kingdom. 
One day, when they are strolling through a grassy field, strange storm clouds appear around the Mushroom Castle, striking the castle with multiple lightning bolts (This was presumably the work of Kamek's magic).
Mario goes to investigate this, with Peach staying still, in shock. Bowser Junior then sneaks up behind the Princess, and grabs her. Mario notices this immediately, but fails to catch up with the speedy toddler. 
Mario and Luigi then begin another quest to save Peach from the clutches of Bowser, but find that this invasion was much larger than the ones before; much more of the Mushroom Kingdom had already been conquered, and Bowser Junior easily hid himself and the Princess in large towers and castles. 
Mario also encountered Bowser very soon; he had wanted to take out the plumber early into his adventure to get him out of the way. This ultimately led to his downfall, however, and fell into a pit of lava, becoming Dry Bowser. 
Despite Bowser's defeat, the journey was far from over, many new minions had been recruited, both from the Beanbean Kingdom and Isle Delfino, and even Dry Bowser was revived by Kamek, who was defeated once again.
But, when Mario and Luigi finally reached Bowser's Castle, he found Bowser Junior throw the pile of bones that was once Bowser into a giant cauldron of magic, completely reviving him. A battle between father and son commenced, but the brothers managed to defeat them, reuniting with their Princess.
After this failure, Bowser and Bowser Junior go into hiding to plan their next move.
=== Mario Kart DS ===
With a delicate time of peace in the Mushroom Kingdom, Peach decided to set up a friendly go-kart tournament, transforming many iconic locations around the Mushroom Kingdom into racing tracks. Many of the popular Mushroom Kingdom residents were entered into the tournament. 
(Although many characters are playable in this game, for the sake of this timeline, Donkey Kong, Waluigi, Bowser, Dry Bones, R.O.B, and Shy Guy do not canonically take part in this racing tournament) 
These racers included, Mario, Luigi, Peach, Yoshi, Toad, Wario, and Daisy (a princess of Sarasaland, a distant land outside of the Mushroom Kingdom).
Luigi's kart in this game, however, appears to be a remodeled version of the Super Poltergust 3001, The Poltergust 4000, created by Professor E. Gadd, presumably at the request of Luigi.
The tournament's winner is unknown.
=== Mario & Luigi - Partners In Time (Present) ===
Professor E. Gadd has returned to the Mushroom Kingdom, to present to Princess Peach and company his newly completed time machine., powered by the a mysterious artifact, the Cobalt Star.
Peach, very excited for the advancements in technology in the Mushroom Kingdom, decides to travel back in time to see her kingdom's past. Two Toads, Toadiko and Toadbert, join her.
The three arrive in the past and are shocked to see the Mushroom Castle completely abandoned and severely damaged, but quickly find that they traveled back to when Shroobs were attacking. Many Shroobs, as well as Princess Shroob and her older sister. Peach, faintly remembering this event as a child, grabs the Cobalt Star from the Time Machine, and uses it to fight back against Elder Princess Shroob, trapping her inside the star.
Peach then shatters the Cobalt Star in six shards, scattering them across the Mushroom Kingdom. Although Elder Princess Shroob was captured, this didn't halt advancement in her plans, as she simply captured Peach and one of the Cobalt Star Shards, and Toadiko and Toadbert got captured by trees and lost his memory respectively. 
Meanwhile, in the present, Toadsworth is in panic for Peach possibly being in danger in the past. After Mario calms him down, the time machine returns, but with the hostile Shroob inside. Mario defeats it, and discovers that, due to the Cobalt Star being damaged in the past, multiple tears in the space-time continuum were formed both in the past and the present. 
Mario sees one of these tears in time, and jumps into one with Luigi following him. A sentient suitcase named "Stuffwell" also joins them. 
The brothers arrive in a city in the past, where they see the Shroobs attacking. The two fight with all they have, but lose, due to the Shroobs' immense power. 
As history seems to repeat itself. Mario and Luigi's infant selves arrive on the scene, saving their adult selves. Awaking on the Koopa Cruiser. Mario and Luigi meet their pasts selves, as well as the pasts forms of Peach, Toadsworth, Bowser, Kamek, and explain their situation. 
The Koopa Cruiser crash-lands in Prince Bowser's Castle, and the present and past Mario Bros. escape to the present, where they (just as they present Bros. did as infants) set out on a quest to reform the Cobalt Star and save the Peach from the Shroobs.
A ways into this journey, Bowser, healed from his defeat in New Super Mario Bros., attempts to kidnap "Peach" with no extra forces or minions (Princess Shroob was simply disguised as the Princess to fool the brothers into thinking they saved her). Due to Bowser falling into a Time Hole, this kidnapping succeeds, and Bowser ends up hiding away with "Peach" inside Thwomp Volcano, even joining forces with his past self.
However, the brothers arrive and beat Bowser, sending him back to the present, defeated, once again. 
As they did before, their quest ends successfully, although with the Cobalt Star destroyed due to Elder Princess Shroob being released. To prevent Mario and Co. from being stuck in the past, he used the radiating energy from the time holes to give his time machine the power for three trips, grabbing the Mario Bros and Peach, and going back to the present.
E. Gadd uses the final trip of the time machine to take the babies back to their own time, saying farewell to their past selves, the past and present are safe.
E. Gadd then leaves the Mushroom Kingdom to continue his paranormal research.
=== Event - King Boo Is Released ===
Sometime between Luigi's Mansion and Luigi's Mansion - Dark Moon, E. Gadd had a yard sale, where, for unknown reasons, he sells his painting containing King Boo to an unknown buyer. 
Through a series of unknown events, King Boo is released from the painting, and begins to plot his revenge on Luigi and Professor E. Gadd (He also frees his army of Boos, through unknown events)
=== Event - E. Gadd Finds Evershade Valley ===
On his quest to increase his paranormal research, E. Gadd discovered a large valley on the distant outskirts of the Mushroom Kingdom, called "Evershade Valley", a valley showcasing many different climates, such as grasslands, jungles, deserts, snowy mountains, and ravines.
In Evershade Valley, there was a massive amount of ghosts residing there, but, because of the Dark Moon, a crystal, celestial body looming over Evershade Valley, with the ability to pacify the undead, the ghosts living in the valley were friendly and cooperative towards each other and even E. Gadd.
E. Gadd further investigated the valley, and found that the area seemed to have once been owned and abandoned by a group of people before he arrived, as multiple other mansions were seen in the valley, such as;
* A large manor with an unknown owner in the valley's grassy plains.
* Two towers built around a very large tree used as both a greenhouse and home for three sisters in the valley's jungle.
* A very old factory that once made the Mushroom KIngdom's finest clocks and watches built atop ancient ruins located in the valley's desert. 
* A wooden house that had a large, man-made cave-system hidden below it located atop the valley's snowy mountain.
* A very large museum positioned right in the middle of a the valley's giant ravine, filled with artifacts from Evershade Valley and beyond.
E. Gadd decided to move into the manor in the grassland (called the "Gloomy Manor") to further study the valley, the Dark Moon, and the ghosts. Investigated each of the valley's mansions, even creating inventions such as E-Gates (a portal device) and the Pixelator (a teleportation device developed based on security cameras) to make transportation between the mansions easier, as well as the Parascope, a machine that E. Gadd built into the Gloomy Manor that scans for ghosts throughout the valley.
E. Gadd mainly continued the research and construction of his new inventions in the Gloomy Manor's lab. The ghosts in the valley, due to being pacified by the Dark Moon, were happy to help in his research in any way they could. E. Gadd made a few inventions during his time in the valley, including.
* The Poltergust 5000, a remodel of the Poltergust 4000. Although it could not be driven on like the previous 2 models, it had increased sucking capabilities, and had many additional capabilities that were their own inventions, themselves (This machine was hidden from the friendly ghosts in E. Gadd's car, as it presumably scared them).
** The Strobulb, a green light that , when connected to the Poltergust, can now perform a move capable of blinding ghosts.
** The Dark Light, a modified ultraviolet lamp that can free things trapped within paintings, as well as reveal the invisible.
* The DS, later dubbed the "Dual Scream", a device that has is programmed with maps of each mansion, records what the Poltergust 5000 has sucked up, and has the ability to call people similar to a cell phone.
E. Gadd also began construction on a project that he would use in the far future. He has presumably near completed the prototype of the project at the beginning of Luigi's Mansion - Dark Moon.
=== Luigi's Mansion - Dark Moon ===
One night in Evershade Valley, E. Gadd was hard at work in his new lab in the Gloomy Manor, with the help of many friendly ghosts. 
High above them, King Boo, knowing of the Dark Moon's power, approaches it, and uses the power of his crown (which is revealed later on to have some form of hypnotism powers) to destroy the Dark Moon, shattering it into six pieces (he presumably did this as the Dark Moon's powers may be stronger than his own), which scatter across the valley. King Boo and his army of Boos then attack the valley and hide in many objects, also turning them invisible.
Due to the Dark Moon being the destroyed, and King Boo's hypnotism powers, all the ghosts in the valley almost immediately went from friendly and joyful to rude and aggressive, including the ones in E. Gadd's lab, who begin to attack him. E. Gadd flees the Gloomy Manor, and goes to a bunker that he constructed, filled with computers and devices to contain ghosts and Boos. He also finds one of the six shattered pieces of the Dark Moon, which he cleans and stores for safekeeping. 
E. Gadd realizes he cannot fight back; he had left the Poltergust 5000 (and it's additions) in the Gloomy Manor, so he calls someone who can help him.
Meanwhile, atop a hill in Boo Woods, Luigi was sleeping in his new mansion, where he presumably now lived. Luigi is awoken by E. Gadd contacting him via his TV, and uses his Pixelator to teleport the frightened plumber to his his Bunker, where he tells Luigi what has happened, and sends Luigi to the Gloomy Manor to get the Poltergust 5000, back, which Luigi does, along with the Strobulb and Dark Light, as well.
Luigi begins on a quest to capture all the ghosts and Boos and collect the 5 remaining Dark Moon pieces, which have been taken by Posserer ghosts, the only known ghosts (aside from Captain Fishook, revealed later on) capable of possessing inatamit objects.
A ways into Luigi's journey, when four of the six Dark Moon pieces, E. Gadd had finished a prototype of his newest invention; green goo that can be formed to look nearly identical to Luigi, having all of Luigi's moves and equipment molded into him.
Due to the ghosts taking over Evershade Valley, he did not have a proper place to test Gooigi, so, he used an upgraded model of his time machine to send Gooigi back to the past, altering history just slightly.
= Timeline #2 =
== Changes From Previous Timelines ==
* Every game and event preceding Luigi's Mansion is unaltered.
*Luigi's Mansion is replaced with it's 3DS port in the timeline.
=== Luigi's Mansion (3DS) ===
Everything in this game stays the same, with the exception of the E. Gadd from the future calling the present E. Gadd and Luigi, explaining how they need to test the prototype of Gooigi during Luigi's quest to save Mario, which they do.
Nothing much is altered here, and Gooigi is returned to the present once enough testing had been done on him.
* Every game and event succeeding Luigi's Mansion is unaltered. 
== Bowser's Resurgence ==
=== Luigi's Mansion - Dark Moon ===
Luigi's Mansion - Dark Moon happens identically how how it occured in Timeline #1.
Luigi continues on his quest to get all the Dark Moon fragments, making lots of gold for E. Gadd in the process.
In the valley's museum, Luigi finds a strange portal, leading to the Paranormal Dimension, the presumed birthplace of all ghosts and/or Boos. Luigi is sucked in to fight the final Possessor ghosts, and he defeats him. 
Luigi and the final Dark Moon pieces are sent back to the Bunker, but King Boo hijacks the Pixelator, bringing Luigi to him for one final fight, which King Boo loses, and is sucked up, once again.
Luigi returns to his own dimension, and uses his Dark Light to save Mario (who had been captured by King Boo shortly after he destroyed the Dark Moon).
E. Gadd then restores the Dark Moon, pacifying the ghosts, once again. One of these ghosts, Polterpup, a ghost dog who had caused Luigi trouble during this adventure, feels sorry for what he did, so Luigi adopts him.
E. Gadd moves far away from the Mushroom Kingdom to capture more ghosts from other paranormal areas, while Luigi returns home with Polterpup following.
=== Mario & Luigi - Bowser's Inside Story + Bowser Jr's Journey ===
Fawful, who had been laying low in the Mushroom Kingdom sewers since his defeat in Mario & Luigi - Superstar Saga, begins his true plan to take over the Mushroom Kingdom. With the help of his right-hand man, Midbus, and his powerful trio of minions; the Best Fitness Friends, 
Fawful creates/grows a new type of Mushroom, later dubbed a "Blorb Mushroom" and a disguised Fawful sells them to both Toads and Bowser's minions, giving them "The Blorbs", a disease that makes one puff up into a large ball and being unable to move, because of this. 
This affects almost every Toad in the Mushroom Kingdom, as well as a large portion of Bowser's minions. With E. Gadd nowhere to be found, A meeting is called for all officials in the Mushroom Kingdom at the Mushroom Castle.
Meanwhile, The blorbed minions of Bowser's Castle begin to spread rapidly. And Bowser Junior alerts his father of this spreading virus, and is also told of the meeting. He is offended that he was not invited to it, believing himself to be a Mushroom Kingdom official, as well. Bowser sets off to storm the meeting, regardless. 
The Koopalings begin to wonder how to cure the minions, only to be visited by Fawful's minions, The Best Fitness Friends. They offer the Koopalings some Skeletone Formula:D, a cure to the blorbs. They attempt to purchase their entire stock, but say that they have only brought a sample size. The BFFs tell the Koopalings of the recipe for the formula, which is made with a giga-carrot, an omega-onion, and some ever-ice. 
The Koopalings and Bowser Junior set off on a quest to get these ingredients t sure their minions of the Blorbs.
Meanwhile, at the Mushroom Castle, no one has an answer about how to cure the Blorbs (They do not know about the Skeletone Formula:D), but, Starlow, a messenger of the Star Sprites, arrives, but even she doesn't know to cure the Blorbs.
Mario and Luigi then arrive, quickly followed by Bowser, who is furious that he wasn't invited to this meeting. He fights Mario, but Peach and Starlow's combined magic powers weaken Bowser immensely, and Peach launches him far away into the Dimble Wood, a large forest. near Bowser's Castle.
Meanwhile, The selfish Junior begins to push the Koopalings away, believing he can get the Skeletone, himself. Ludwig, however, leaves on his own volition, believing the Best Fitness Friends may not be what they seem, returning to Bowser's Castle. 
Bowser is awoken by Kamek, who regains his strength and makes his way back to Peach's Castle. On the way, however, he is tricked into eating a Vacuum Shroom by a disguised Fawful, making the Koopa King inhale everything around him, with Fawful leading him to Peach's Castle.
Meanwhile, Kamek escapes Bowser's rampage, and meets up with Bowser Junior, whom he joins. 
Junior later finds the ingredients he needs to make the Skeletone, but does not know how to make the formula. Junior, Kamek, and Morton (the only Koopaling who had not left Junior, at this point) make their way to see Kamek's friend in Bubble Lake, who may be able to make the formula. 
Mario and company attempt to resume their meeting, but are inhaled by Bowser, shrinking them as they all fall into Bowser's body. Bowser goes unconscious after inhaling his enemies. Fawful orders Midbus to carry Bowser far away, which he does. 
Mario, Luigi, and Starlow all awake inside Bowser's body, and find their way to Bowser's Funny Bone, and strike a particular nerve in his body with their hammers, waking Bowser up with a shock. Starlow poses as "Chippy" to Bowser, and does not tell the King that Mario and friends are alive, inside his body. 
Bowser then runs into Midbus, whom he loses to in a fight, but Bowser begins to make his way back to his castle after learning that it was taken over.
A ways into his journey to get back, he finds his own Elite Trio, attempting to use a Banzai Bill to attack Bowser's Castle. Bowser helps them find and shoot a Banzai Bill, but Bowser's Castle flies towards them in retaliation. (an upgrade from Midbus and Bowser's brainwashed minions)
The castle crushes and kills Bowser, but Mario and Luigi stimulate the last bit of energy Bowser has left, not only reviving the Koopa King, but growing him to a massive height.
Midbus refuses to fight Bowser in such a unfair fight, and tells him that he will only fight him at both of their normal strength. 
Bowser returns to his normal size and reaches his castle, where he sees his brainwashed minions, as well as his castle being turned into a large theater.
He fights Midbus on stage, and wins, and he is awarded with lots of unhealthy food. THis turns out to be a trick, as this food makes Bowser overweight very quickly.
Mario and Luigi venture into Bowser's Flab Zone to solve this problem, but find Princess Peach captured. They save her, and she tells of Fawful's true intentions, to awaken a evil artifact known as the "Dark Star", which could plunge the world into darkness if put in the wrong hands. 
At that moment, Peach is taken out of Peach's Castle via a ray gun from Fawful, and Fawful makes his way to Peach's Castle. Bowser also finds a treadmill, and begins to lose the weight so fast that catches fire, which lights up several Bob-ombs, launching him out of his Castle, landing in a Underground Tunnel.
Bowser makes his way to the Toad Town Tunnels, but is shocked by the Tunnel's security system, making him go unconscious. 
This shock opens up a pathway in Bowser's Body, allowing Mario and Luigi to use pipes that leave Bowser's body.
They emerge from a pipe also in the tunnels, taking a route to the surface of Toad Town, but find it's too late; Fawful already had his hands on the Dark Star, and soon began to channel Peach's power to awaken it, and multiple barriers were blocking the entrance to Peach's Castle. 
Mario and Luigi learned from Dr. Toadley (who had moved to the Mushroom at a unknown time) that they could both cure the Blorbs and get into Peach's Castle by collecting three Star Cures, which could form into a Miracle Cure. Bowser, who had awoken, overhears of these Star Cures, and, wanting to harness the power of the Dark Star for himself, attempts to find them himself. 
Meanwhile, Bowser Junior had just gotten the Skeletone Formula:D fully made, but is tricked by the Best Fitness Friends, who take their formula and use a deadly poison to make Malatone Formula:X; the most power brainwashing agent ever known. It is used on Morton, who attacks Junior and Kamek.
The two fall into a river, and they land on the shores of Plack Beach. Junior feels guilty for how he acted, and vows to find the Koopalings, and defeat the Best Fitness Friends. 
He finds Iggy nearby, and Ludwig disguised himself as one of the Best Fitness Friends, Beef, after defeating him. He gives Junior a RenewaLeaf, which can cure the effect of Malatone Formula:X. The four set off to find the rest of the Koopalings.
Meanwhile, Bowser makes his way around a large lake, eventually finding a dead end, but is then crushed by a large, sentient tower. Larry and Lemmy, two other Koopalings, witness this, but then reunite with Junior and company. They then head to Bowser's Castle
Bowser once again grows giant, and defeats the large tower. Mario and Luigi then find the first Star Cure from a bug inside Bowser's body they had defeated previously. 
Bowser eventually finds Private Goomp, who tells his king that Bowser owns a Star Cure inside his treasure room. Bowser heads there, but finds a large railroad going through his treasure room. He destroys the railroad's train, and finds the safe holding the Star Cure. 
However, after opening the safe, The Elite Trio push Bowser into the safe, locking him inside, revealing that they were brainwashed. Bowser' out of options, eats the Star Cure, and Mario and Luigi get it.
Mario and Luigi then exit Bowser's body to find the final Star Cure from an ancient being, and return to Dr. Toadley, whom he fuses them into the Miracle Cure, curing every Blorbed Toad, and opening a path to Peach's Castle. 
The brothers go to the Castle Grounds, and make their way to the back of the castle, and are forced to fight a Junker robot by Midbus. 
The robot malfunctions after being defeated, and throws Bowser's safe (which has been transported to Peach's Castle), breaking it, although Bowser is severely injured. 
Mario and Luigi fix Bowser's injured back inside his body, allowing the Koopa King to storm Peach's Castle.
He finds Fawful, who had almost awakened the Dark Star. Midbus distracts the Koopa King with a fight, whom Bowser defeats. The Dark Star then awakes, and Fawful absorbs a fraction of it's power, which Bowser cuts short. 
The Dark Star then invades Bowser's DNA, copying his body and abilities. It leaves Bowser's body as incomplete, and it tries to find Fawful, whom had the rest of the Dark Star's energy.
Peach's Castle then turns into a giant robot, as a last resort, crushing Bowser. Bowser fights off the castle, defeats it, and Fawful. Fawful then simply turns into a bug-like creature, whom he fuses with the rest of the Dark Star, creating Dark Bowser, which Bowser, Mario, and Luigi fight; Bowser fights his Dark clone, while Mario and Luigi fight Fawful, the Dark Star's core. 
Both are defeated, and Fawful pulls a trick on the plumbers, using the final bit of power he had left to absorb the brothers in a dark explosion, but this only pulled Mario, Luigi, and the Toads outside of Bowser's body. Bowser is disgusted that he sworn enemies were inside him, and prepares for a duel with the brothers, where his is defeated, and Peach is saved. Both Peach's and Bowser's Castles begin reconstruction.
Meanwhile, Junior had reunited with the rest of the Koopalings, defeated the Best Fitness Friends, and used the trio's remaining Skeletons Formula:D to cure Bowser's minions of the Blorbs. 
Bowser is taken back to the Koopa Kingdom, where he heals for some time. Junior tries to tell his father that he saved his minions, but he is asleep. Junior storms off in annoyance. 
Bowser later receives a cake from Peach and the Mario Bros, thanking him for helping them save their kingdoms.
=== Super Mario Maker 2 (Story Mode) ===
A group of Toads lead the charge in rebuilding the castle, with Toadette being the chief of the project. Mario, having some skills in demolition, gladly offers his services, in the castle's reconstruction, as well. The team is gifted a large budget by Princess Peach, which they completely expend, for the job. They meet many new people, during the reconstruction, such as a coned dog going by the name "Undodog"
After some time, the castle's construction finally reaches it's end, and the crew is left with a newly constructed palace for their Princess. Toadette congratulates her crew on a job well done. During their celebrations, they notice a dangerous tool capable of simply erasing entire structures, The Reset Rocket, just lying nearby the construction site. The crew is initially fearful, but their tensions seem to lower once the Undodog tries to play with them.
However, during his play, the Undodog accidentally activates the Reset Rocket, causing the newly constructed castle to completely vanish. The crew is horrified and disappointed.
Toadette realizes they lack the budget to build a new castle. However, she gets the idea to send Mario out on certain tasks to get enough coins to fund the reconstruction. The crew finds many jobs that Mario can do, all listed by anonymous people, however, many of them would have been familiar faces for Mario, such as Bowser Junior or his father.
Mario completes the majority of the jobs, and the castle is almost completely rebuilt. However, just as Mario gets the needed funds for the final touch; the castle's iconic glass mural of the princess, Toadette gets captured by Bowser. However, Mario quickly saves her, and the team finishes the glass mural, completing the castle.
Peach sees Mario's efforts, when she visits the building, and she congratulates him. 
=== Super Princess Peach ===
Sometime ago, on Vibe Island, an island not too far from the Mushroom Kingdom. a boy named Perry is found atop a mountain by an old man. Perry supposedly had strange powers that helped him survive before the old man found him. Perry did not know who he was and had nowhere to go. The old man adopted Perry, and lived happy together.
However, the two were later confronted by two mysterious figures. They demanded that the old man should hand Perry over, as they knew about his powers. The old man tried to protect Perry, but one of the figures used magic against them, and turned Perry into an umbrella. 
The pair were separated, however, Perry managed to escape from the figures and attract the attention of a traveller, who took him to their shop. He remained in the shop for a while, until Toadsworth visited the shop and felt Perry's power, and then bought him.
Sometimes later, Bowser (now healed from his defeat in Mario & Luigi - Bowser's Inside Story) decides to set up a summer villa on Vibe Island while his castle was being rebuilt. The Koopa Troop soon find a strange septer on the beach of the island, called the "Vibe Scepter", and Bowser discovers it can control, strengthen, and even weaponize one's emotions. 
With this power, the Koopa Troop invade the now-rebuilt Mushroom Castle, where Mario and Luigi are captured. Peach is unsure what to do with her two most powerful men captured, but Toadsworth suggests that she saves the brothers, and gifts the Princess the parasol he had bought. 
Peach arrives on Vibe Island to save Mario and Luigi, and, Peach discovers that she can use Perry's power to weaponize her own emotion, allowing for things like flight, releasing both water and flames, and increased healing abilities. 
Peach reach's Bowser's Villa, where the King uses the Vibe Scepter to increase his size, but Peach and Perry defeat him. Peach reunites with the Mario Bros, and the four friends go back to the Mushroom Kingdom.
Perry says that he wants to see the old man he had met, but would still like to stay with Peach for a while. He presumably does, and then leaves Peach to find his adopted father. Perry's fate is unknown from here.
=== New Super Mario Bros. Wii ===
Bowser attempts another kidnapping, with a much bigger scale than before, delivering a cake hiding the Koopalings and Bowser Junior within to Peach's Castle.
At Peach's birthday party, she is surrounded by presents containing power-ups from that Mario had used on his past adventures. Mario and Luigi are joined by Ala-Gold and Bucken-Berry, two of Peach's royal guards. The large cake arrives, and the 5 friends look at the cake in confusion.
Suddenly, Bowser Junior and the Koopalings emerge from the cake, throwing the cake on top of Peach, trapping her inside. The Koopalings and Bowser Junior flee the Mushroom Castle, and board their nearby airship. Mario, Luigi, Ala-Gold, and Bucken-Berry give chase.
Back at the Mushroom Castle, a few Toads grab some of Peach's presents containing newly discovered magic objects; such as a mushroom that makes one able to fly and a suit that gives one the look and powers of a penguin. They put these presents into cannons, and launch it, breaking the presents open, and scattering the power-ups across the Mushroom Kingdom, hoping they will help Mario and company.
Mario begins another journey to Bowser's (newly built) Castle, facing new and old enemies and climates, and also finding the scattered power-ups, along the way, and Bucken-Berry and Ala-Gold learn and master most of the Mario Brother's skills. 
When Mario and company reach's Bowser's Castle, and defeat Bowser with relative ease, they realize that the fight was not over; Kamek, used one of his most powerful spells to grow Bowser to a very large size, with even Kamek getting hurt by Bowser, underestimating the power of the spell.
Bowser, who had hidden Peach in the deep basement of his fortress, begins to hit Mario and company with everything he has, but, ultimately, fails. Mario, Luigi, Ala-Gold, and Bucken-Berry find a switch that caves the floor in, making Bowser fall down, defeating him.
Mario and friends save Peach, and they find some hot-air balloons to fly back peacefully to the Mushroom Castle. On the ride back to her kingdom, Peach tells Mario of the upcoming Star Festival, and invites him to the event (this invitation can be heard in the credits of the game)
Meanwhile, Bowser awakes, and gets back on his feet with the help of his minions. However, Bowser's Castle quickly falls possibly due to the floor caving in, leaving Bowser, his son, and the Koopalings homeless.
=== New Super Mario Bros. U ===
Mario and friends returned to the Mushroom Kingdom, where Peach holds a party in the four hero's honor.
However, during the party, Bowser attacked with a fleet of airships, and used a newly-built mechanical hand to attack Mario and friends. The hand knocks the quartet out, and grabs them, flinging Mario, Luigi, Ala-Gold, and Bucken-Berry miles away, leaving Bowser to take over the Mushroom Castle.
Mario and friends begin the trek back to the castle, but run into familiar minions, like the Koopalings, along the way.
When they finally reach Peach's Castle, they find it has been taken over by Bowser, but Mario and his friends reach Bowser and easily defeat him. But Junior urges Kamek to revive his father, but Kamek is shown hesitant to revive his king, but eventually does.
Mario, Luigi, Ala-Gold, and Bucken-Berry fight a giant Bowser once again, and end up defeating him, saving Peach once again. 
Bowser, his son, and the Koopalings hopelessly flee, but Bowser had new plans in store, as his most current takeover of the Mushroom Kingdom was simply a diversion to stall for time until his newest plan could begin.
== The Star Festival ==
=== Event - The Comet Observatory Is Attacked ===
Just before the Star Festival begins, the Comet Observatory approaches Earth, with a now-adult Rosalina piloting the ship. The Comet Observatory had been upgraded over the centuries; the Beacon that Baby Luma transformed into had become the observatory's core, many houses for the Lumas were built, and the ship housed more Lumas than ever.
However, just before the Observatory reaches Earth, Bowser fleet attacks, draining the Power Stars and Grand Stars that power the Observatory, scattering the Power Stars across the universe, and keeping the Grand Stars under the watchful eyes of Bowser's elite minions. It is implied that Bowser conspired with extraterrestrials for this plan, as a flying saucer is among his airship fleets.
Due to the drainage of the Beacon, Baby Luma is released from it, and Rosalina sends it down to Earth so it can be safe. 
After the attack, the Observatory is powerless, stranding the ship in the middle of space.
=== Super Mario Galaxy ===
Sometime later, Peach discovered Baby Luma, who had crashed down to Earth after the attack on the Observatory. Peach, due to being a Star Child, sensed a familiarity with it. Peach then sent a letter to Mario, officially inviting him to the Star Festival, wanting to give Baby Luma to Mario to see if he had the same familiarity with it as she had.
On the first night of the Star Festival, Mario happily runs through the Castle Gardens. Although the Comet Observatory was not on it's usual course, Star Bits still rained down from the sky, with many Toads getting as many as they can. Mario made his way to the Mushroom Castle. But, before he could make it there, Bowser attacked. 
Using his fleet of airships and a flying saucer, he completely destroyed the Castle Gardens, and the flying saucer freezed many Toads in large crystals. Bowser then approaches Peach, with the Baby Luma in her hands. Bowser "invites" Peach to the creation of his new Galaxy.
Mario quickly dashes towards the Mushroom Castle, but it is too late; the flying saucer uses laser beams to cut around Peach's Castle, the using chains to lift the castle into the sky. 
(Although this plan would not normally work under normal circumstances, due to the Power Stars being scattered across the universe, the Star Power surrounding Peach Castle was presumably weakened)
Mario stows away on the rising castle, but Kamek notices him, and quickly blasts the plumber to the depths of space as Peach's Castle disappears in a flash of light, but not before Baby Luma escapes the castle to find Mario.
Mario awakes on a distant planet, called the Gateway, where the Baby Luma greets him. Baby Luma shows Mario her mother, Rosalina. Rosalina tells Mario of Bowser's attack on the Observatory, and requests that Mario goes to retrieve the scattered Stars. Baby Luma helps Mario but granting it his power, giving him the Power to spin.
Mario soon retrieves the first Grand Star from a mechanical planet, which takes him and Baby Luma back to the Observatory, and Rosalina tells Mario of the Observatory and the Power Star's importance, and Mario decides to retrieve them. 
Along the way, Mario reunites with Luigi, who is kidnapped by a group of Boos, presumably as revenge for defeating their king, but Mario save shis cowardly brother, and he later tries to find Power Stars to help him.
Mario also meets a group of Toads who escaped Earth after the attack on the Mushroom Kingdom, calling themselves "The Toad Brigade". Mario brings them back to the observatory as well, and they finds the parts of the Starshroom that Rosalina used to come to the Observatory as a child, and rebuild it to use for themselves. They also try to find Power Stars for themselves, while giving some to Mario, setting the stage for a later game to this one in the timeline. 
Mario meets many new and old faces on this adventure, often fighting rouge aliens and even encounting Bowser twice, but he flees before he is defeated on both occasions.
When Mario retrieves the majority of the Observatory's Power Stars and all but one of the Grand Stars, the Observatory regains its fuel, and Rosalina charts a course for Bowser's base at the center of the universe.
Mario dashes through the toughest challenges yet, until he finally arrives and sees his enemy with his princess. Bowser fights Mario in the middle of a dying coreless sun, and Mario just barely manages to win, launching Bowser into the dying sun.
Mario receives the final Grand Star from Bowser and he and Peach fly around with it's power. Bowser crawls out of the lava and onto a piece of rock, terrified of the consequences of his most recent failure, as he sees his Galaxy begin to crumble away, due to Bowser losing the Grand Star, which allowed him to create the Galaxy in the first place.
Because of the death of Bowser's Galaxy, the center of it undergoes a supernova, which creates a supermassive black hole that begins to suck up everything in the entire universe, when it looks like Mario's reached his end, Baby Luma and all other Lumas from the Comet Observatory charge towards the black hole to neutralize it, resulting in the black hole dissolving, and a blinding light emanates from where the black hole once was.
Mario awakes in a rift between timelines, revealing that Rosalina had saved Mario from the cataclysm. Rosalina tells Mario that this is not the end, but a new beginning for the universe, which repeats its cycle indefinitely, each time a little differently. Rosalina and Mario then disappear, leaving Timeline #2 completely destroyed. 
= Timeline #3 =
== Changes From Previous Timelines ==
As Rosalina said, no two timelines are completely alike, as Timeline #3 switches up many games and events from the two previous timelines. The changes are listed here in chronological order.
* Super Mario Bros. is replaced with Super Mario Bros - The Lost Levels in the timeline.
=== Super Mario Bros. - The Lost Levels ===
Almost all details of this game are completely identical to the original.
* Super Mario 64 is replaced with Super Mario 64 DS in the timeline.
=== Super Mario 64 DS ===
Peach invites Mario over for some cake, and Mario brings Luigi and Wario along, as well, but Bowser captures all three of them.
A Lakitu wakes up Yoshi, sleeping on the castle's roof, and alerts Yoshi of the kidnappings.
Yoshi manages to save Mario, Luigi, and Wario, and the game plays out relatively normally afterwards.
* New Super Mario Bros. U is removed from the timeline and replaced with New Super Luigi U, but much later in the timeline.
* Everyone living being from Timeline #2, with the exception of Rosalina, The Lumas, and Mario, have their memories wiped, and replaced with the slightly altered memories from this new timeline, as well as completely erasing all memories of the destruction of the universe.
* Time is slightly set back when this new timeline forms, with the Star Festival that occured at the start of Super Mario Galaxy now only being on it's way.
== The Star Festival ==
=== Super Mario Galaxy (Ending) ===
After interacting with Rosalina in between timelines, Mario awakes in the Mushroom Kingdom, now completely repaired, filled with many of the friends and enemies Mario had met on his adventure.
Peach and Bowser awake near him, but very confused about what has occured, as they lost their memories of this game's events.
Mario, however, remembers the previous timeline, and sees the Comet Observatory, on it's way towards Earth. Rosalina telepathically speaks with Mario, telling him that this life in this universe carries the essence of the Stars, even in Mario, indirectly revealing to the plumber that he is a Star Child.
Mario looks up into the sky, seeing new worlds beyond his planet, ones he did not see on his most recent adventure. Mario welcomes this new galaxy with open arms, and Bowser and his armies quickly flee after Bowser awakes.
=== Super Mario Galaxy 2 ===
Time goes on in this new universe, with the Star Festival occurring shortly after the creation of this new world, due to time being set back slightly after the timeline switch.
Mario happily arrives in the Mushroom Kingdom on the morning of the Star Festival, where Star Bits rained from the sky. 
On his way to the Mushroom Castle, Mario encounters an unconscious Baby Luma, who awakes. Baby Luma and Mario are implied to recognize each other, so they join forces, once again.
Mario later arrives at the Castle Grounds, but finds a familiar face is attacking. A gigantic Bowser is attacking the castle, Peach in hand. Mario confronts Bowser, but he is too late. Bowser quickly flees, and Mario is tasked by some Lumas to find him, using a Launch Star to get Mario off-planet.
After collecting a Power Star, Mario is taken to a strange planet inhabited by Lumas. One of these Lumas, Lubba, offers to help Mario in his quest, and uses Mario's Power Star to rebuild the planet into a starship in his own likeness, creating Starship Mario.
Mario and Lubba use this Starship to traverse across the universe to recollect the scattered Power Stars. On the way, Mario finds a race of Yoshis in nearby galaxies, which he uses to his advantage.
Mario also meets up with the Toad Brigade, who are on the new quest to save a friend of theirs. They assist Mario in Power Star-collecting, once again.
After collecting enough Stars, Mario reaches Bowser's Galaxy Generator, which is forming his empire with the use of a trapped comet.
Mario and Baby Luma storm the base, and reach Bowser, where they have a climactic showdown, with Mario winning the duel, receiving the Grand Star that Bowser had absorbed. Mario then reunites with Peach, and they return to Starship Mario.
Mario then sees the galaxy generator get destroyed, and the trapped comet within the generator is revealed to be the Comet Observatory. Rosalina appears among them, and remarks both she and Mario have gone through so much to meet again. Baby Luma returns to her mother, taking Mario's cap as a souvenir.
Lubba then returns Mario and Peach to Earth, where all their friends are waiting, along with a defeated Bowser, who shortly flees. 
Mario, Peach, and many more of their friends watch the stars fall from the sky, knowing that the Star Festival has just begun. 
=== Captain Toad - Treasure Tracker ===
When Earth was attacked by Bowser at the beginning of Super Mario Galaxy 2, the Toad Brigade (which presumably had been reformed after the universe reset) is on the hunt for Power Stars. Captain Toad and Toadette, a new member of the brigade discover a Power Star atop some ancient ruins at an unknown location. 
While the duo celebrate their find, a greedy bird named Wingo flies in, and grabs the Power Star to add to his treasure hoard. Toadette attempts to get the Star back, but this only results in her capture, latching on to the star as Wingo flies away.
Captain Toad then goes on a quest to save Toadette with the help of the Toad Brigade, going from Earth and then space to find her.
Captain Toad eventually finds Wingo, and he manages to defeat him, getting ahold of Toadette and the Power Star. 
However, Wingo quickly attacked again, trying to steal the same Power Star. However, this time, Captain Toad was captured, and it was up to Toadette to save him.
Toadette quickly finds an abandoned castle where Wingo is hiding out. Toadette tries to save Captain Toad, and it seems that all is well, but Wingo strikes just before the two Toads reunite, and Wingo kidnaps Toadette, again, blowing Captain Toad away.
Captain Toad later awakes, inside a isolated cavern. He finds a Power Star, but Wingo swoops in and takes the Star, once again, making Captain Toad give chase.
Shortly after, Wingo believes he no longer has any need for Toadette, and drops her in the middle of a jungle, and both parties continue to find Power Stars.
Much later, Toadette is captured by Wingo again just before the two can reunite, and Captain Toad storms Wingo's base one last time.
Captain Toad defeats Wingo for good, and gets his Power Star, and Toadette.
After the adventure, the two Toads go on a minecart ride back to the Mushroom Kingdom, and arrive around the same time when Mario and Peach return to Earth.
When they return, Captain Toad spots an interesting Star among the other falling Stars; a Green Star. Captain Toad, always looking for the next adventure, chases after it, leaving Toadette behind, ending their travels together for now.
=== Super Mario 3D World ===
The Star Festival continues, and sadly reaches its end, and Mario and Peach, now joined by Luigi and Bucken-Berry, are taking a midnight stroll through the Castle Gardens, enjoying the fireworks, set off to celebrate the end of the festival.
As the four friends stroll through the gardens, Bucken-Berry spots a strange, crooked pipe had appeared on the path. He and his friends approach it, and notice that, unlike the colorful pipes of the Mushroom Kingdom, this pipe was completely clear. 
Mario and Luigi use their plumbing expertise to reshape the pipe, and find that something bursts out of it. This thing appears to be a female, green pixie of sorts. She tells Mario and company that her kingdom, the Sprixie Kingdom, was being attacked by a monster, who had kidnapped all but one of the seven Sprixie Princesses, the rulers of the kingdom, and she was the final Sprixie Princess.
Before Mario and friends have a chance to respond, Bowser bursts through the pipe, quickly trapping the green Sprixie Princess in a jar. Bowser had wanted to start fresh and take over a smaller kingdom to egg on Mario and friends to reclaim the kingdom, but quickly defeat them.
However, he did not expect for the Sprixies to contact Mario and friends, but this did not halt his plan. Bowser quickly retreated through the pipe. Peach, angered, tries to grab Bowser and reaches in the Clear Pipe, but this only results in Peach falling into the pipe. Mario, Luigi, and Bucken-Berry are shocked, and quickly go down the pipe after her.
As the four friends set off in the magical pipe, a falling Green Star lands in the Clear Pipe, as well. Captain Toad comes onto the scene, and attempts to get inside the pipe, which he does, as he joins the adventure.
Mario, Luigi, Peach, and Bucken-Berry arrive in the Sprixie Kingdom, with no way back to their own kingdom, as they begin the trek to save all the Sprixie Princesses. 
The four friend's trek across the Sprixie Kingdom allows them to meet many new friends; including Plessie; a large dinosaur, and a possibly descendant of a Yoshi. They also met many Sprixie Kingdom natives, both friends and foes.
Captain Toad also joins in, venturing through many strange places to hunt for many Green Stars, even calling upon the Toad Brigade (aside from Toadette) to assist him in treasure hunting.
They also discover The Super Bell, a power that allows one to transform into a cat. These Super Bells felt much different to Mario and company than other powers they had used, as, unlike other powers, The Super Bell had a source that Mario will learn about, later.
The party eventually finds a floating castle above a land of clouds. Bowser's Castle had been summoned into the Sprixie Kingdom. They find and fight Bowser within the base, and manage to defeat him, now having all the Sprixie Princess' saved. 
However, Bowser is quick to retaliate, then capturing all of the Sprixie Princesses, and jumping away to his secret base. The Sprixie's use all of their power to create a Clear Pipe to said base. Mario and company follow them.
The party arrives in a large amusement park floating on the edge of space. Mario and company venture through the carnival, and reach The Great Tower Of Bowser Land, when Bowser unleashes his full strength, using a Super Bell to become Meowser.
The party battles and defeats Meowser as they climb up Bowser Land's tallest tower, and the Sprixies are saved.
Mario and company are overjoyed, and the Sprixie Princesses happily return Mario, Luigi, Peach, Bucken-Berry, Captain Toad, and the Toad Brigade happily return to The Mushroom Kingdom. 
When they return, the group notices the Comet Observatory high in the sky. Mario recalls when he met Rosalina, and wishes to see her again. The Star Festival later ends.
Sometime later, the Sprixie Princesses are happy to help Mario reunite with Rosalina, and they uses their strength to build the party a large rocket ship. Mario, once again joined by Luigi, Peach, Bucken-Berry, and Captain Toad, use the ship and head off to space to find their friend.
The Comet Observatory was already miles away from Earth, but Mario and company manage to keep up with the fast space station, eventually with Rosalina noticing the party following them, and stopping the Observatory to meet her friends. 
Rosalina tells the party of a golden stretch of planets, filled with the toughest challenges in the universe, and Mario and company decide to find it, with Rosalina happy to help.
The Comet Observatory could not reach this golden stretch of planets on it's current course, so Mario, Luigi, Peach, Bucken-Berry, and Rosalina go on a hunt in a nearby star system to find enough Green Stars to power another newly-built rocket ship to their destination. Captain Toad and his Brigade als continue their searches for treasure.
Eventually, the party creates a path to this Golden stretch of planets, dubbed "World Crown". The party of five then faced their toughest challenge, yet; a stretch of planets filled with foes and challenges. The group triumphes, and everyone they've met on their adventure celebrates the group.
Rosalina returns Mario, Luigi, Bucken-Berry, and Peach back to the Mushroom Kingdom with her magic, the group knowing that they will see her, again.
