Celebrate Nintendo’s Weird Little Guys in Super Mario Bros. Wonder
Everyone loves a quirky character, whether it’s Danny DeVito, cats, or the unusual characters found in Nintendo games like Turgle, Meat Boy, or the Prince of All Cosmos. Nintendo has a reputation for creating unique and eccentric characters, and their latest game, Super Mario Bros. Wonder, is no exception. Let’s take a moment to appreciate some of the best weird little guys in this game, shall we?
Prince Florian
Right from the start, Prince Florian captures our attention with his adorable appearance. Does he have a cute butt? Two cute butts? It’s hard to say, but it’s undeniably adorable. His wardrobe is regal, with a classic red pea coat, matching white gloves, sensible brown shoes, and a crown adorned with badges. His perfectly styled green hair and big orange schnozz complete his endearing look.
Poplin
Toads have always been beloved weird little guys, but the Poplin are giving them a run for their money. These royal subjects exude joy and mystery with their lofty pantaloons, hooded shawl, and a unique hat that combines elements of flowers and skulls. Their black eyes add an extra touch of weirdness that keeps us fascinated by this little guy.
Maw Maw
Don’t be fooled by Maw Maw’s innocent appearance. This salamander-like creature may have a vacant stare and silly tongue, but it’s a ruthless predator and one of Mario’s fiercest foes. With a voracious appetite and the ability to eat anything in its path, including Goomba-ized Mario, Maw Maw is a force to be reckoned with. But how can you stay mad at that adorable face?
Mumsies
Bringing a Halloween vibe to the game, Mumsies resemble mummies from the Tinseltown era. Their unusually tall wrapping adds an element of fun as we unravel them. The mystery behind their high wrapping style remains unknown, but it certainly adds to their charm.
Rolla Koopas
Rolla Koopas exude energy with their magenta shells and matching skates. They exude a sense of style and seem to prefer skateboarding over participating in any violent coup of the Flower Kingdom. Their flawless form is admirable, and all they need is an ABBA Gold cassette playing on a Walkman to complete their cool persona.
Skedaddler
Skedaddlers, with their anxious frowns, give off a sense of Greek mythology curses. Despite their size and speed, these creatures are consumed by fear and only look backward, obsessed with their own mortality. This vulnerability is disarming, and their big eyes and chubby cheeks make us want to protect them. We can’t help but imagine keeping them in a shoebox with a piece of lettuce until they grow too big, and then tearfully releasing them at the local park.
