mario sidescrollers: peach has been kidnapped!! lets go thru fun worlds and help her 🙂
mario rpgs: canonically peach is the only one saintly enough to go to heaven; whilst upon their death mario, bowser, and luigi end up in a greek inspired underworld. after explaining their peril to the equivalent of hades and god, and saving hades and god’s child from the mario equivalent of lucifer, they managed to return to the mortal realm in order to continue their fight against a man driven to madness by a lost love who is attempting to erase every dimension from existence
In the Bus Buffer minigame in Mario Party 5, the buses are reflecting in puddles on the ground. However, the models used for the reflections are different from the buses above, and are likely remnants of an earlier design for the minigame.

Thwomp riding his moped, seen in the Extras Zone in Mario Party 8.
