Mario (series)

The *Super Mario* series is the most successful video game series that debuted with the arcade video game *Donkey Kong* in 1981. The popular game later spawned two sequels and *Mario Bros.*, though the series became a household name with the release of *Super Mario Bros.* on the NES/Famicom, the game that can arguably be considered the game that saved the entire gaming industry.

The second game in the *Super Mario Bros.* series was originally only released in Japan, though the rest of the world would be able to try it out with the release of *Super Mario All-Stars*. Instead, the rest of the world was treated with a remake of a Japanese only title called *Doki Doki Panic*, which was renamed *Super Mario Bros. 2*. It was basically the same game with new sprites that featured Mario themes.

*Super Mario 64* was released in 1996 on the Nintendo 64, and is considered just as revolutionary as the first *Super Mario Bros.* title. It introduced Mario and gamers to a new, 3D world. It became a huge hit and spawned two more 3D games - *Super Mario Sunshine* and *Super Mario Galaxy* on the GameCube and Wii respectively.

Technology

## Current Era and Advancements

Aarde is technologically similar to the renaissance. It is mostly a world of knights on horse back and large sailed ships. Many large geared devices exist.

* Printing Presses are found in some very large cities
* Gunpowder is available, but so costly that guns are an oddity
* Crossbows are very common

## Steamgineering

The exception is steamgeneers. Some engineers, often after strange insight, develop some piece of technology that is beyond this era. These devices are quite rare and usually of smaller scale at this point in the world. No one is in full steam armor (yet) or riding steam horses.

* The bankers guild of Aegean owns a steam abacus. This device, roughly the size of a coffin, can computer fairly complex equations.
* The chainsaw - while no true wood cutter can afford one. A "steam chain saw" was developed that allowed for trees to be cut down in moments. Its high cost made it impractical and it was later altered to be a mounted weapon for a knight.

## Magic

If the machine requires magic to run, it is not technology but MagicTech. It is possible to enhance technology with magic, but this is incredibly complex for reasons unknown.

Alchemical fuels are acceptable uses of magic in **technology**.

Super Mario Maker 2

***Super Mario Maker 2*** is a Mario level editor released on the Nintendo Switch in 2019. It is a sequel to ***Super Mario Maker*** and features even more elements. One of the main additions is a ***Super Mario 3D World*** style which resembles that game in a 2D style along with adding numerous elements from those games like the Super Bell and Clear Pipes.

## Gameplay

The biggest change is that element selection is now radial instead of a large dropdown menu. The quick bar is still at the top of the screen but, when selecting an element, the player chooses a type of element and then uses the control stick in the direction they want to select the element. One of the main new additions is the slopes which come in two varieties. The player drags the slope along the surface to determine its length. The game also has a new autoscroll tool which lets the player determine the direction the level scrolls in. The water level can be changed. Some enemies can have new properties. For example, thwomps are now able to move sideways.

In addition to the new ***Super Mario 3D World*** style, there are several new themes: Desert, Snow, Forest and Night. It is unclear how many of the 3D World elements are exclusive to that game.

Rumors

**This page is under construction. You can help by editing the article.**

*Remember to check what links here and the page history before deletion.*Ever since its reveal as the mysterious Nintendo NX, **rumors** about the Nintendo Switch have been frequent, especially around major announcements regarding the console. While most of these rumors have been debunked, a fraction of them have been officially confirmed. This page is intended to document all notable rumors about the Switch, true or false.

While rumors before the First Look at Nintendo Switch reveal trailer came from various sources, most of the post-*Switch* rumors are created by freelance gaming journalist Laura Kate Dale, who claims to have connections with insiders.

## Current rumors

### GameCube Virtual Console

In December 7, EuroGamer posted a report about the Nintendo Switch continuing the Virtual Console system, which first started with the Wii and would support GameCube games, with *Super Mario Sunshine*, *Luigi's Mansion* and *Super Smash Bros. Melee* as the first titles to be released through this system, with *Animal Crossing* also in development.

### *Dark Souls* trilogy port

On December 6, Dale posted a tweet about a possible *Dark Souls* trilogy port for the Nintendo Switch, all bundled with their DLCs. According to her tweet, the games are working at a level that the developers are happy with. However, they are purportedly waiting until sales data to see if a port for the system is a good option. If so, *Dark Souls 3* may be released on the Nintendo Switch at the same time as on other systems.

## Confirmed rumors

### *Seasons of Heaven*

On December 8, Dale posted a tweet about a small upcoming game for the Nintendo Switch, with a December announcement. Later that day, the game was confirmed to be *Seasons of Heaven*, a game developed by Any Arts Production based on the book french *The Seasons of Paradise*.

### Extra Dock performance

On December 6, Dale posted a tweet regarding the Nintendo Switch Dock, stating that it assists the performance of a docked system thanks to its USB-C connection. The Nintendo Switch Presentation confirmed that the system uses a USB-C to charge, and the rumor as a whole was confirmed later the same day when Nintendo revealed that *The Legend of Zelda: Breath of the Wild* runs at a higher quality when the Switch is docked.

Humanoids

All Humanoid races in Aarde share evolutionary ancestors, though some branched earlier than others. While the use of "human" in humanoid may seem offensive, most scholars agree (politely, or as an insult) that humans are the most common and average of peoples.

For the most part, races are more "sub-races" than uniquely alien beings.

## Known Humanoids

* Humans - One of the more populace groups on Aarde. Generally average and highly diverse.
* Elves - Taller and leaner than most races, elves can be found on many continents, but often prefer forests.
* Dwarves - Shorter and stouter than most races and tending towards lost of facial hair. The underground thing is sort of true.

Mario vs. Donkey Kong

**Mario vs. Donkey Kong** is an upcoming Nintendo Switch remake of the Game Boy Advance game of the same name. It was first announced during the September 2023 Nintendo Direct, and is set to be released on February 16, 2024. It is the first *Mario vs. Donkey Kong* game for Nintendo Switch and also the first one in general since *Mario vs. Donkey Kong: Tipping Stars*. As a remake of the first game, it is also the first time the gameplay style of the Game Boy version of Donkey Kong has been revisited since the original's release. Unlike the original version's pre-rendered visuals and the rest of the *Mario vs. Donkey Kong* series opting for a plastic, cartoony look with outlines, the remake adopts a standard modern artstyle, taking many cues from *Super Mario 3D World* and its appearance as a theme in *Super Mario Maker 2* in particular. Additionally, the game debuts a redesigned logo for the *Donkey Kong* series.

Despite Charles Martinet retiring from doing voices for the Mario franchise starting with *Super Mario Bros. Wonder*, archival voice clips of him as Mario appear to be repurposed here. Contrarily, Donkey Kong now uses voice clips by his current voice actor, Takashi Nagasako, as opposed to reusing Grant Kirkhope's performance from *Donkey Kong 64* as in the original Game Boy Advance title.

For many years they created short films and movies featuring *Mickey Mouse* and other characters.

Most of there video games are based on there movies and *Disney* franchises, and only one, *Spectrobes*, is not based on a *Disney* franchise.
Themes

Characters capabilities are determined by ranks they have in **themes**. Ranks usually represent a 10% increase in skill compared to the average. Generally speaking, PC's are assumed to be above average in all **themes** other than special themes. Effectively, before ranks, PC's are already 20% better than average. Rolling Mechanics can be found here.

Themes are one of the primary ways the GM determines bonuses or negatives on rolls. Players who keep to their themes are more likely to get bonuses.

Being above average does not necessarily mean you are trained. It may represent general schooling, getting lucky with a guess, using common sense, etc.

## Combat Themes

All characters need to include their ranks in all combat themes except demolitions. There are non-combat PC's but that doesn't mean they might not be forced to fight

Combat themes cover how a character fights and defends themselves. This might be accomplished by martial skill, mundane gear like armor, magic, mechanical items, MagicTech or some mix. Characters pick a focus concept.

* A trained assassin, I am deadly with my long blades in close range, some may say I attack with impossible speed, but it is my technique
* Fire magic, my character knows how to put the burning flame into the weapons they wield and are talented with swords and bows
* MagicTech Gloves, my character uses magic-tech gloves that lets her punch with super strength

Full List of Combat Themes

## Profession Themes

All non-combat themes that all characters are considered to have some skill in. This includes subgroups like crafting or rogue focused themes.

* Ranks are applied to a specific theme within a subgroup
* Disadvantage ranks are applied to the entire subgroup
* Rogue themes include sneaking and stealing
* Knowledge themes represent knowledge of various important subjects
* Crafting themes are those that involve making things

Full list of profession themes

## Special Themes

* Powers
* Movement

Each stage would be marked by difficulty, and have pictures upon choosing a course. In some levels, there is a foreground-background hybrid gameplay, similar to *Donkey Kong Country Returns*. Also, each character would use their caps (including Peach) to glide in certain levels.

Nintendo Switch

The **Nintendo Switch** (codename **NX**) is a hybrid video game console released by Nintendo on March 3, 2017. The console was announced on October 20, 2016 through Nintendo's YouTube account. The console is the successor to the Wii U.

On January 12, 2017, a presentation took place in Japan and live streamed worldwide (with translated versions), which cleared up a lot of rumors, announced the launch date and games and technical specifications. Although this, the RRP for Europe was never announced.

The Switch sold over 2.7 million units within the first month of its launch which made it the fastest-selling console of all time.

## Description

The Nintendo Switch Console itself is similar to a tablet in appearance, which can be docked into the Nintendo Switch Dock, hence the name. When the console is docked, the game will be shown on the television screen. However, when it is removed from the dock, the game will show on the screen of the console. The Console can be played portably when undocked, essentially making the Nintendo Switch both a home console and a portable handheld.

## Accessories

### Joy-Con

When the Nintendo Switch console is removed from the dock, the Joy-Cons (specifically Joy-Con L and Joy-Con R) can be attatched to it. Additionally, games can still be played on the Switch, even if the Joy-Cons aren't attached. When turned sideways, the two Joy-Cons can be used on their own to play local multiplayer games.

The Joy-Pads can still be used, even if the Switch is docked. To play games on the televison, the Joy-Cons can simply be attached to the Joy-Con Grip instead of the Nintendo Switch Console, allowing you to play Switch games without needing to go into portable mode.

### Nintendo Switch Pro Controller

When the Nintendo Switch Console is docked, it can still be played without using the Joy-Cons, thanks to this controller. This controller is more of a traditional one in terms of design, much like the Wii U Pro Controller before it. It is currently unknown how many games the Pro Controller is compatible with. The Pro Controller will be sold separately from the Switch console.

## Specs

Not much is known about the Nintendo Switch in terms of specs, but it is known that Nvidia's custom Tegra processor is used to power it.
