The Mario series has its fair share of misconceptions by fans. The sheer amount of games make it difficult for any one person to get a full picture of the characters and lore. This page will correct some of the most common misconceptions and misinterpretations.
Bowser is dead
Possessed by King Boo?
Era of Peace
Jumpman is Mario’s father
Mario abuses Yoshi
Punching and falling off cliffs
Mario and co. are actors
Super Mario Bros 3
Super Mario 64
Super Mario Sunshine
Mario destroyed the Sun
The Angry Sun in SMB3 is not the actual Sun
Mario has no canon
Mario is from Brooklyn
Mario is on drugs
Mario kills Toads
Peach wears a Super Crown
Peach is seen without her crown in Super Mario Odyssey. There is also a LINE gif of her without her crown. She is human.
(Doesn’t the Game Theory video also mention her controlling the toads or something? Watched it years ago lol) - if so the Toads just respect her as a leader, they’re not under control
Peach is Bowser Jr’s mother
Did you finish Super Mario Sunshine?
Peach secretly loves Bowser
Why she keeps getting kidnapped
Odyssey ending - more like Mario chose the worst possible time to propose
Rosalina is a goddess
Universe reset
Rosalina is the daughter of Peach and Luigi
If anything, it’s the opposite, with Peach being descended from Rosalina (well, her brother).
Spin-offs aren’t canon
Mario & Luigi
This likely stems from the different tone in the Mario & Luigi series, as well as the series' greater focus on story and nature as a spin-off. Many people also think the series was never referenced elsewhere.
Evidence Mario & Luigi is canon
- The Ice Flower featured in Super Mario Galaxy and future games originated in Mario & Luigi: Partners in Time.
- In Luigi's Mansion 3, Gooigi's backstory links E. Gadd to both coffee and time travel, aspects of his character established in the Mario & Luigi series.
- In Yoshi's Crafted World, Starbeans brand packaging appears alongside brands from 'Mario Kart 8'. Starbeans is otherwise exclusive to the Mario & Luigi series.
