Actively Slanderous Propaganda Disorder [Game Theory][Mario is Mental]

- Here we are: the most infamous Mario theory there is. "Mario is Mental" has garnered its fair share of both support and criticism over the years. Now let me tell you why the former should not be happening period. Today, we're killing off Mario is Mental once and for all.
EDIT: For the "Mario kills Toads when he hits brick blocks" point, I actually missed a bit of definitive evidence. On page 8 of the manual for the original Super Mario Bros lies the quote "If you come across Mushrooms who have been turned into bricks or made invisible, they reward you by giving you a power boost.”, which is proof that the Toads that have been turned into bricks are actually item/coin boxes, which don't break when Mario hits them. Big thanks to the Marioverse Discord server for letting me in on that one. I would have inserted it into the video, but I'm writing this less than twelve hours before the release of this video, so oh well. Better luck next time.

Mario is the kind of guy who would watch that theory video, feel immense shame, turn himself in to the authorities, and ask for the forgiveness of those he apparently wronged.
A little extra for the Mario Power Tennis bit: Luigi does look away from Mario with kind of a smug look, which leads to Mario's back-slapping and boot-stepping. So yeah, Luigi kinda shot first in that silly sibling squabble.
No, stop spewing bullshit. Luigi was only foolin'
@@gonhunter3994 Well then, Mario was also foolin'.
I like how MatPat says Mario is an unfeeling sociopath when at one point in the video, he says that a baby should've been fed to a wild plant-like animal
Honestly the best joke
The way he said it as well. It came straight out of his heart. It's like if Mario bullied him in school or something
@@SamSam065 Or maybe MatPat hates anything fun.
@@SamSam065 😂
@@robbiewalker2831 Or he takes things way too seriously But your guess is as good as mine
Funny enough, the manual actually _does_ go into more detail about this "Toads are blocks" thing! See, when it gets around to explaining powerups, the justification is that the Toads are helping Mario by giving him those items and coins.
_In other words,_ the very manual that started this "murdering mushrooms" thing also outright dismisses it! The Toads are, canonically, all the _non-breakable_ blocks in the first game. And _only_ the first game (and Lost World). By the time Mario gets the ability to smash _those_ kinds of blocks, the Toad transformation gambit had _loooong_ been abandoned by Bowser!
Honestly. It's things like this that make me think Mat Pat doesn't site sources maliciously. To make it so it's harder to actually check if he's wrong.
@@macabweu7682 To me, it feels like both for the sake of cancelling out Mario's popularity, because he's envious of Mario being seen as a positive guy.
31:16 Actually, page 8 of the Super Mario Bros Manual states that the Blocks that give you power ups and coins are the Toads rewarding you for finding them
So technically, the Toads stay alive and the bricks that break are just walls built by Bowser to confuse Mario to hide the Toads.
@@anarchistauthor5475 The confusion of that description is that the writer couldn't tell the difference between a brick and a block. Very humiliating.
czcams.com/video/vTU5J7vNsw8/video.html :this is my reaction to matpat not reading the whole manual there by destroying half his video.
And then MatPat used this theory as part of his proof that Luigi underwent realistic hypnosis in Super Paper Mario, and in turn used that to "prove" that Mr. L was the true Luigi. URGH.
More likely to prove Mr. L was Luigi true intentions (even though Luigi was just brainwashed into Mr. L)
I hate that theory more than Mario is mental
Shut up
And the comments were deleted for disagreeing. I'm reporting this video
@@tomesofawesome8041 Oh no! Someone debunks a horribly made video, oh the horror! Calm down GT fanboy. Debunking something is not grounds for deleting a video. Have fun failing.
@@tomesofawesome8041 Oh sorry, you were saying something? I must've missed it. Please, repeat.
Actually, an addendum to my starting comment: the other big factor he used to conclude that it was realistic hypnosis was the speed of it all. You know...ignoring the fact that magic powers exist in SPM to make up the speed difference, and we can hear an electric-like sound when Nastasia uses her power, suggesting a torture-like brainwashing.
I love MatPat, he seems like a great guy, but MAN he is an only child and it SHOWS.
As a little brother I can confirm that if you didn’t roughhouse as a kiddo with your bro then you are a robot; it was expected and welcomed.
Hell Luigi looks at Mario after the infamous “foot stomp” scene which is honestly just a big brother saying “you win, but don’t go getting a big head about it...” with Luigi’s smile just says “Still got you bro!”
He isn’t a great guy
@@firestriker3580 If he was, he wouldn't have his ego inflated so much after he got married.
Isn’t he have a team?
@@larryapple2004 Given how his first editor died, I doubt he cared about his "team".
He actually had a sister (rosanna, she does baking videos on youtube) but I suppose they didn't have that kind of sibling relationship (because not all siblings are the same)
Either that or Matpat made the whole video with the intent of it being a joke, but you can't really tell when it comes to him.
32:43 Don't forget "Yoshi's Island," visual evidence that Goombas can easily recover from a standard squish.
Very true, much like how many cartoon characters survive similar injuries for so long. The Mushroom Kingdom and Koopa Kingdom residents have the same resilience as those with "Toon Force".
Paper Mario games also show Goombas running away from Mario and not being killed
@@roccoisagamer1431 exactly. also, I'm fairly certain the same thing happens in the Mario & Luigi series.
@@anarchistauthor5475 your probs correct
@@roccoisagamer1431 nah
MatPat: They have daisies on their heads for crying out loud
Says the person who brings up the "looks are deceiving" point every 5 seconds
“Looks are deceiving when koopas are involved!”
here is another thing on the crushing enemies point
extra lives are canon and we know bowser takes care of his minions so odds are he has them all loaded up with extra lives
Either that, or Bowser made Goombas out of Dead Logs with Fungus growing on it, and his own Brand of Black Magic.
Considering Bowser is shown to have INFINITE lives. His minions likely have many many lives as well.
He said that Jump man and Mario are different people, yet he acts like they're the same person. MAKE UP YOUR MIND, MATPAT!
My only argument would be from one external logic point and one internal logic point.
External Logic: People believe Mario and Jumpman are two different people, because Nintendo based Mario on a pre-existing cartoon character named Popeye the Sailor. Popeye has a father named Poopdeck Pappy, who was created to not only make Popeye more relatable as a character, but to have angry parents stop complaining about Popeye as a character.
Internal Logic: it’s very likely that Jumpman is as much of the OG Arcade character as Cranky’s claim to being the OG DK, since Game Boy Donkey Kong came out a few months before Donkey Kong Country; the former game featured a DK with a necktie and tells us it takes place before “Donkey Kong Jr.”, while the latter gives us stories from Cranky, and his bias towards modern game development tells us why the DK in the Game Boy game is not the same as the Arcade DK (especially when the instruction manual to GBA's Mario vs. Donkey Kong says "it looks like Donkey Kong is up to his old tricks again; implying that Mario vs. Donkey Kong is a spiritual sequel to Game Boy Donkey Kong).
Regardless, it still doesn’t change who Mario is *now.*
not looking good for his theory if it's contradicting itself
@@doctorspindash2.086 Nope. Not good at all.
@@aliasella488 What's even worshipped you straight up Lie to your viewers Which he did twice
@@aliasella488 What do you think of my little side-theory?
Should it be noted that the implications in almost all Mario Games is that the Bros are going on an adventure together. And that very few of the games actually imply Mario going Alone.
Fun fact. Mario also thinks very highly of Luigi. As in Mario Bros 2. Mario dreams of Luigi going on a grand adventure with him, Peach, and Toad.
I think what people misunderstand about Luigi's insecurity is that it's not Mario who doesn't give him credit, it's everyone else.
@@annieandelsieofarendelle3294 On top of that, his insecurity is a biproduct of the Mario RPGS. Which formed because games like Super Mario Land 1 and 2, and Super Mario 64 were games where Luigi never showed up. There were adventures where Luigi was never there were the latest in the series at the time Paper Mario 64 happened, and the Devs likely wanted to add the remark of Luigi feeling bad he can't go on an adventure with Mario, who was going solo on ANOTHER adventure. And to be fair, Luigi wouldn't go on another major adventure with Mario until 2011, so the Devs were actually rather lucky in their choice of dialogue for Luigi.
The fact that MatPat only thinks "relationships" can only be inherently romantic shows that he probably has no female friends outside of his wife lmao
And the fact normal sibling interactions/rivalry = "evil" acts implies he either was probably an only child who thinks how people with siblings work, or only have the "purest~" relationships with his 🙄🙄
It's also pretty sexist. Especially when he says that Daisy is Mario's sloppy seconds and was forced onto Luigi by his brother after he was done with her as though Daisy herself doesn't have any agency and couldn't just decide that she preferred Luigi over Mario.
@@annieandelsieofarendelle3294 I agree that it's sexist.
@@annieandelsieofarendelle3294 Matpat: "names only get repeated in romantic settings"
Me: Oh, so Solid Snake is having a harem.
While I do believe that he was sexist back then I also believe that people can change and I think he has for the better idk just an opinion maybe I’m wrong who knows.🤷
@@NintenDylan64691i think it's sexist to assume that
Being a Mario fan during that time was a horrible experience.
Man, that damn Mario is Mental "theory" makes me want to walk on top of a hill and scream to the high heavens at the top of my lungs in absolute rage. 😑
*takes out gun and holds up to head*shut up
You maybe wanna stay in your lane there, my dude? Kinda uncool harassing random strangers like that.
@@RedQueenMiku2 neh I don’t fell like it...
@@thecleetusfromanimalcrossi6685 How about I put it this way then: Please do not engage in harassment in my comment section.
@@RedQueenMiku2 You know, I believe that's the first time anyone has ever send me a death threat and it's over a opposing view. Guess the dude didn't read or listen to the disclaimer at the beginning of the video and doesn't like anyone having a different view opposed to his own. Still wasn't cool of him to threaten me like that though. I just said what I was thinking instead of hiding it for once, expressing how I felt about the subject the video was focusing on.
27:41 The fact that Matpat acts like Luigi and Daisy wouldn't have a choice to be with each other. If Luigi and Daisy didn't actually like each other they could have easily split ways. Besides i think that people would expect her to marry a rich prince or a super buff and handsome knight and while Luigi is a hero he doesn't really fit does descriptions. The whole theory is so stupid and it baffles me that people still think its a convincing theory to this day.
Ikr.
Also, I find it sexist that he calls Daisy Mario's sloppy seconds. Like wow, dude. Way to make a woman feel like nothing more than a sexual object. It couldn't be that she just found that she liked Luigi more than Mario.
@@annieandelsieofarendelle3294 Yea I think the "Mario is Womanizer" point was the worst point in the video. I mean he really had to streach to make this video in the first place but that point specifically was just stupid.
@@nyanfox4754 I know. As for Pauline, they could just be friends and business partners. I don't know I just found that whole part sexist since it implies that neither Pauline nor Daisy have any agency or the ability to just be friends with a guy like Mario.
@@nyanfox4754 As much as I can understand some people believing Mario and Jumpman are two different people (given Mario being an expy of Popeye), I don’t buy that Mario was the only person at the circus to get DK angry, or that Mario was attacking DK Jr out of malicious intent.
Given Cranky’s biased comments about modern technology he spewed in DKC1, and that the Donkey Kong in the Game Boy game wore a necktie, it’s possible that Modern DK has done a bad thing as much as his grandfather, and that he wanted to reject giving up so easily as his grandfather did. Besides, we all know the Arcade DK never wore a necktie.
Since matpat himself uses a clip from the Mario rpgs when starting his rant on how Mario hates Luigi, it’s only fair to bring up events from those games to prove this theorist wrong. In Bowser’s inside story, the bros find frozen shroobs in the basement of Bowser’s castle. Starlow gives Luigi a hard time, and claims that Mario probably did most of the work required to defeat this alien menace, but Mario actually defends his brother’s honor, telling Starlow that it was actually Luigi who delivered the final blow against the invaders.
Another rpg point
Spoilers for Dream Team btw
Dreamy Bowser has an attack where he summons an airship with shy guys on it to chase Luigi. Normally you'd just run as Luigi until it was done, but instead Mario jumps on the airship to play whack a shy guy and hits the Bowser face with his hammer until the ship breaks
Wow......it seems you went easy on MatPat. I hate how MatPat keeps bringing this easily debunkable form of a “theory” up. Seriously, he acts like it’s valid despite the fact that Mario is a kind, heroic, courageous, determination, and whimsical character that the majority of people love with our hearts, including me.
Still, I find it toxic that MatPat refuses to accept facts, or how he's twisting the truth for his personal gain. RedQueenMiku may not want to speak badly about MatPat (even if she was discouraged over MatPat’s malicious intent on lying), but I for one do not think he should be let off the hook for lying to gain attention; not even God himself would allow conspirators like him into Heaven.
@@chucky7327 And theories are backed up by evidence and then examined by peers to test their metal and validity. Suck it up, if Mat Pat wants to use the term theory he has to take what that moniker comes with. And when your "theory" relies on so much lies and bullshit that you can be almost handwaved away, then you will get disrespect from people who do actually care about the topic at hand.
this theory has evidence that proves it wrong and yet the Creator straight up ignores it I think we know who the real sociopath is
Agreed
Yes, Mario is a very determination person. Just look at his determined when it comes to saving the princess.
17:05
FINALLY someone sees that Luigi bumped the door closed and that Mario and Peach didn't close it on him and leave him
Excellent video again! Every counter-point was well thought out and you really brought a lot of key pieces of evidence into the light. I couldn’t have done it better myself. This totally deserves more views!
I have no canonical evidence for this but here’s a headcanon this video reminded me of.
With SMO in the mix l like to believe that Mario and Pauline drifted apart romantically around the time she got into local government. Pauline wanted to change the abusive animal handling scenarios that caused Cranky Kong (Donkey Kong l) to go berserk. She ended up getting a lot of grassroot support and found herself wrapped up in so much work she didn’t have much time for the relationship anymore. Not long after Mario and Luigi went off in aid of Princess Toadstool (not yet on a first name basis) for the first time.
Obviously Mario and Pauline are still friends - they play sports and do fun projects together - but their lives are so different now than they were when they fell for each other. It’s bittersweet in some ways, but they’ve both grown and their both better people for it.
My Headcanon was more based on Donkey Kong ‘94 for the Game Boy, Modern DK’s original classic-based design used in that game, and how Cranky’s comments about his supposed Arcade appearance would indicate that Arcade DK and Game Boy DK are not the same Kong.
17:20: [BONUS POINT] he tried to use mario is missing as evidence, emphasis on 'tried'
22:55 The fact that Mario & Pauline are still friends after breaking up is just another thing that proves MatPat wrong. Many exes have a grudge or something that makes them hate each other, but Mario & Pauline? No! Mario brings her to the opening of the Mini Marios as a Special Guest, makes her her own Mini Pauline toy, and goes to save her after DK kidnaps her. I don’t think Mario would go through all that trouble if he was a bad person. If he was the bad person MatPat wants us to believe, he would probably just forget about her and do nothing.
I remember when this theory originally came out, and it absolutely broke me. What got me the most upset was how passionate and convincingly angry MatPat was (especially that "fired up" tangent)
In regards to Luigi, I always considered his cowardice and jealousy somewhat stemmed from Peach favoring Mario. Peach started inviting Mario exclusively to events (most notably the 3D games), and those events ended up leading into adventures. Eventually, this spiraled into Mario receiving most of the spotlight, which was amplified through his and Peach's relationship. It would explain why Mario gets occasionally egotistical and Luigi has some subconscious doubt. Regardless, they still fully support and care for each other as shown through a lot of stuff that came out that year (I never got over the fact that Dark Moon AND Dream Team came out the same year and still before MatPat's theory)
Na
Also there's the implication that some of those adventures were supposed to be Mario and Peach's dates so it makes sense why Mario didn't bring his brother because would you want your younger sibling coming with you to your date?
Another amazing video!!! And oh my GOSH I can't believe MatPat frickin' lies on purpose D: I just kind of figured he never really did research, but wow
As a twin brother, I can prove sibling rivalry exists!
Also, that singing bit made me laugh!
Fair warning; I'm pretty much the Luigi of my family; I'm the clumsy, timid brother. My twin sister is far less timid and a lot less clumsy than I am. Guess what? Sibling rivalry exists. I bet MatPat is an only child.
Matpat admitted he is a signal child in his MK8 is deadly video
I'M a single child and I know sibling rivalry exists! I have cousins!
Likewise. Me and my brother would often fight and shit as siblings do. But we were also there to help each other too! Granted that was usually in pkmn battles and trades when we could borrow our cousin's link cable.
This means that MatPat literally does not understand Sibling Rivalry.
@@MSDKZfangirl2490 there’s a difference between sibling rivalry (which would have the show scene) and being a bad brother (never thanking your brother for saving your life or the balloon you had a date on)
You made an excellent job on debunking the theory with legit and valid evidence.
I swear to God, I have a feeling that Matpat is basically on "Team Bowser" or basically a massive Bowser stan. Given with the comment on Baby Mario being fed to the enemies. I mean, imagine a timeline, where that happened or the Mario Brothers never existed. Bowser would've taken over the Mushroom Kingdom without any issues. Don't get me started on what he'll do to Peach, if he won.
Also, sidenote: Donkey Kong Circus is not even an original game, as it's basically a reskin of a game, starring Mickey and Donald.
Overall, there are so many issues and as MangaKamen said, yet MatPat keeps praising this one as his Magnum Opus. I would go further into details on the other flaws, but again MangaKamen did a video about the issues.
Not specifically team bowser. He has a lengthy history of villanizing heroes and heroising (?) villains.
@@bigchungus6827 Look, I'm actually okay with different headcanons and alternative universe stuff, but what MatPat does, is not only really annoying, but problematic AF, ESPECIALLY if you consider the actions of both sides and their motives.
Like, no matter if someone tries to justify the villain's actions, they still did terrible stuff. Same for justify, that heroes are evil. IT JUST DOESN'T WORK.
I swear, MatPat is like a supervillain at this point.
@@ElifSinim I mean, I'm not disagreeing with any of those points. I'm just adding that his actions damage a lot more franchises than just Mario.
@@bigchungus6827 Yeah. Pretty much. That guy caused a lot of damage of the video game franchises and their fandoms a lot more than any troll ever.
In addition to that, the Paper Mario, Mario Sports, and Mario Kart games aren't even canon and Mario Is Missing isn't even a game by Nintendo.
Edit: so that means the entire video is debunked.
I have no idea why people tolerate the Mario is Mental Theory?
I have three theories:
-People want Mario be dark and dare I say edgy
-People despise the Mario character
-People view it as Mario having a personality

Note to self: don't let RedQueenMiku see the video done about handsome jack... Or do, I can't wait to see another "GT" get torn apart.
I’d like to see her tear apart the Cap’n Crunch argument; especially when Cap’n Crunch was well aware he doesn’t have the Captain rank, but also said he’ll forever be Captain to his fans that stuck by him.
Even if Mario was punching Yoshi, isn't that just cartoon violence
I wouldn't take it as literal animal abuse
Plus Yoshi is practically a glorified horse and people slap horses flanks
So according to matpat's own theories, either Mario is crazy, he's a murder, he cheated on his girlfriend with his own mom, or the big one matpat is just talking out his butt just to get attention. YOU DECIDE !!!!!!
But if it is the last one it's called Yellow Journalism and shouldn't be praised.
Especially since he did a Film Theory on Yellow Journalism. But the way he presented that theory and his own behaviour let that look more like an excuse than an condemnation.
Funny how you say Mario would date his mom, when Yoichi Kotabe drew Lady to look similar to Peach while drawing Pauline as a brunette.

So I'm pretty sure your right
in reality mario could just be redempted after the donkey kong games,just like other villains that turn into villains
This debunk was just as good as MangaKamen's!
You brought up good counterpoints and your reactions to his points were amazing!
I know if somebody scared my brother id be there trying to comfort him.
Another point about the wigglers is that they're also part of bowser's army.
I love how MidPat tried to use a Mario and Luigi game to try to prove his point when it's the one franchise that showcases their strong brotherhood relationship the most. In PiT Mario got mad at that one star door that made Luigi cry. And whenever Luigi dies, Mario always shouts out his name and keeps fighting while holding his dead body on his back...
Even his Mario is Missing point is laughable, not only because of the big fat "Thank You" at the end of the NES version, but because on the PC/MS-DOS version (which there is absolutely no reason why we shouldn't be considering canon as he considered the NES one), when Luigi frees Mario, they high-five and hug. The man can't even do a full research that's just ridiculous 😂
I could go on all day but I can't be bothered anymore. Dude thinks that Mario is faster than Sonic, that Rosalina is Luigi and Peach's daughter, that Sans Undertale is Ness etc etc... It's safe to assume that he's either a comedic genius or one massive clown
Matpat: Names only get repeated in romantic settings.
Me: So does that mean the characters in Metal Gear Solid are in love with Snake or?
Let's us remember that MatPat use flimsy couch"Evidences" to justify his theory.
Many Mario Games has prove MatPat's Theory wrong, he simple refuse to knowlenge them.
I feel like there's another point worth mentioning that not only would disprove this theory but also make it VERY messed up if taken at face value (well, more than it already is, of course).
It's about the "relationship" between Mario and Pauline: MatPat believes that both the "mental" theory and the "timeline" theory hold up; in other words, even though Jumpman is clearly stated in the latter theory to be Mario's father, Mario is still a dangerous sociopath and womanizer. What Matpat fails to realize is this: if Jumpman is Mario's father, and Mario is potentially seeing Pauline on the side, _IT IMPLIES HE COMMITTED PATRICIDE TO HAVE INTERCOURSE WITH HIS OWN MOTHER._ Do you see just how wrong that is to even so much as type, let alone imagine?
Mat pat said that this theory was fact in his most recent video.
Why!?
Please some one give me the link to this video to send to mat pat so he can stop shooting himself in the foot.
It wasn’t fact
This genuinely feels so healing and relieving as someone who used to watch theories like these, thank you.
Also, not to mention the whole ASPD "diagnosis" further stigmatized serious mental disorders, making the people who struggle with them seem like bad and awful people. It's truly disgusting
28:10 could you translate your singing to real talking because i had no idea what you were saying and have you snaped?
"I want you all to know that I can't take this for much more. Luigi and Daisy are very clearly in love, and Mario was clearly never actually in love with Daisy and Pauline is his hecking ex stop this before I have an aneurism"
Yes yes she has
I won’t lie this theory video is what caused me to stop watching game theory all together. Plus his “COUGH Theories COUGH” are inconsistent & has a addiction of antagonizing main protagonists.
Honestly, Undertale and Deltarune have both addressed the whole "Player choice over the character" shtick. These types of games couldn't do that because A) that wasn't even an idea in their heads with how new and fresh the gaming frontier was back then and B) because of the hardware limitations. Sure, Square Enix and Earthbound tried to work within these limitations though that's two other game creators vision. You can try to paint a dark interpretation into a game full of cartoony charm, but that's like trying to say that Bugs Bunny is a bully or Daffy Duck is intentionally destructive or that Micky Mouse is a real psychopath or that Donald Duck' anger issues are a problem, or Goofy himself is too stupid to understand the world around him, when that literally isn't the original creator's intention or in the case of Bugs Bunny, was actively avoided.
36:02 I remember him admitting this in his hollow knight video which I think came out in 2018 so I'm sure he still does this
Fun fact: the mario is mental theory is worse then sans is ness
Prove me otherwise
NOPE! MAT PAT DID NOT JUST COMPARE MARIO TO GRAND THEFT AUTO FIVE!
Well the manual says the Japanese manual says that they're actually the question mark blocks which for some reason were called bricks at that time for some dumb reason I don't know it's a mistranslation
The entire theory was just bullshit to even begin with. I knew the entire video was bullshit when I first saw it.
You deserve more subscribers!
Glad to see someone /finally/ bring Super Mario Galaxy 2 up with the whole Yoshi thing...
Something MatPat and others ignore is that Luigi jumps on Mario's head in Super Mario Bros 3
33:30 this is where it goes down.
damn mario and donkey kong were kinky
Tbh, even if the mario is mental theory is wrong, I already miss Matpat because he made a lot of people’s childhoods (including mine). But it is still fun to look back at old theories and seeing people’s rebuttals to it.
Ah yet another matpat debunker!
I am glad more people are seeing these "theories" for what they are, simply entertainment at the expense of a somethings reputation.
I have my own theory about this Game Theory trilogy, that MatPat is just trying to justify his shipping of Luigi and Peach. The first part; Rosalina Unmasked, was an attempt to gaslight people into thinking that his ship could be canon. The second part; The Mario Timeline's Shocking Reveal, is a long winded excuse to explain what happens to Mario after Luigi gets together with Peach and why he would be okay with that. The third part; Mario is Mental, is MatPat being upset that people are annoyed that he wants his ship to be canon and drawing arbitrary lines to justify why Peach doesn't deserve Mario. This explains why he doesn't hold the same standards of Mario's "villainy" to Luigi, he likes Luigi better than Mario, he wants Luigi to end up with Peach.
There was one game were luigi tired to hit mario with a koopa shell for fun and in the first luigi mansion game luigi laugh's at what happened to his brother after he is free
the gamer is back! and what is this there. is mario guilty? is the title of the video and its in a court style why not you try it. title idea for you. mario ist guilty!
12:57 um i think that clip of luigi and ghost is from random and it more because he said mario treats his brother badly and i still disagree with mat
The point was that MatPat used it to try to condemn Mario, joke or not, which is slanderous because the clip in question displays no bad behavior on Mario's part.
I like that you talked about that in Mario galaxy 2 the Yoshie's Respawn after Dropping the down a pit, good video about calling matt pat out on his bullshit, these are noy theory's so much as this is a speculative essay, The gave very distinctive facts about his claims, The examples you shown is proof that Nintendo treats Luigi as the butt of jokes is aperient, How matt Patt a guy who Soley based his channel around Theory's if couldn't hurt to fact check The information over.
20:37 so whats your point
28:02 Nice Singing.
3:46 THATS A THING!
Not
Matpat doesn't do context.
Kind of the theme of all of these videos.
11:11 i here a bop tell me what you here from this.
Do you mean the Super Mario World athletic theme or the Partners in Time boss music that plays while I'm talking?
I hear no Bop. Ot was most likely just the beats of the music. Though even then nothing appears there.
@@RedQueenMiku2 it sounds like bahoo before yoshi opens his mouth
That sounds ain't a bop tho
One last thing... all the paper characters are fully seprate characters
While that is somewhat true, there been hints that some Paper Mario games happened since some Paper Mario 64 content appears in Mario Kart Super Circuit, a Mario Golf game I believed, Mario Party 5 and Goomboss in Super Mario 64 DS
I have a headcanon that the paper mario world are recreated stroy's of mario's adventure's
I mean the creator of mario said all the mario's are the same
Either that or paperjam is not canon
true
czcams.com/video/iIscMyb66Vk/video.html in the Mario movie Mario goes trough tough thing JUST TO SAVE LUIGI
15:04 whole of the Mario and Luigi series
I have my own theories about characters on my blogs, but I don't mind if they get debunked, as long as the person opposing a theory of mine can provide some legit explanation for why they cannot believe it and is not just insulting me for explaining my theory.
28:05
LOL! Utterly brilliant! :D
21:47
Relatable
Are you doing ok?
@@dragonoverdrive6859 Yeah
Also with Pauline being Mario's guest of honor maybe Peach needed to take of some political buisness so Mario figured an old friend was fine.
This man is terrible at his job. You dont ignore evidence that goes against your crafted theory, you work it in and craft counterpoints!
Are we shore the thumnail is right yuri should be in the place mario is
Not
Lore of Actively Slanderous Propaganda Disorder [Game Theory][Mario is Mental] momentum 100
11:22 the animation was still intended to be that that was what it was designed to be they changed nothing about it the original is always right
Like she said it was *INTENDED*
Like to you hear her even out
Or are you too much of a matpat fanboy
It’s not canon
I never understood the theory to begin with.
In Super Mario Galaxy Luigi make a clone
Huh?
Oh you talking about playing as Luigi, I always assume that part isn’t necessarily canon
At least Matpat is more open about how most of his theories are actually nonsense (entertaining nonsense, but nonsense nonetheless).

And are the tennis games cannon
Edit: im big dumb
No. They're spin-offs. Simple, sport spin-offs.
That's like saying Sonic Drift is canon to the Sonic series. Or even Kirby's Avalanche being canon to the Kirby canon.
Ok
@@ElifSinim Not true. Mario doesn’t have a canon
@@firestriker3580 True. It doesn't have an official timeline, unlike Zelda.
What I mean is assuming a sport game to be canon, is stupid.
Given Luigi and Bowser thinks some outfits Mario wears look familiar in Odyssey, like Diddy Kong for example, and the only games where Luigi, Bowser and Diddy Kong would be in the same game is Mario Kart DD, Mario Kart Wii, Mario Super Slugger, Power Tennis and heck, Waluigi is recognizable to those two in SMO and his first appearance was Mario Tennis, the spin-offs are likely canon
33:17 I only saw the color splash part as canon as I don't think the party games are canon
Also because the SMB1 manual
i agree with everything except ALL of the game and watch games being non canon, sure donkey kong hockey is obviously not canon but stuff like mario bros on the game and watch and some of the modern versions of them on the game and watch collections are canon
7:20 You misunderstand what he said. He said Mario is no better than a child burning small insects, not that Wigglers are small insects. That would be stupid to say.
This video made me unsubscribe from game theory.
Look, while I agree with the point that MatPat has gone on record saying that he'll cherry-pick "evidence" for his theories to tell the narrative he's trying to tell, that in no way implies that he actually believes his theories as fact. You accuse MatPat of taking little things and blowing them way out of proportion, yet you're guilty of doing that yourself. In my point of view, as a person who used to believe every single Game Theory put out there but has since grown up and regards his videos as nothing more than light entertainment, I see that quote you used at the end of the video as a purposeful defamation of MatPat as a person, flying in the face of your own pre-video disclaimer. What the quote actually implies, looking at the big picture, is that MatPat is trying to tell a specific narrative, in other words, for entertainment that is in no way meant to be fact or implied as such. MatPat, in the most basic terms of his profession, is an entertainer.
If he _were_ indeed regarding these theories as unequivocally canon, then yes, it would be quite unethical for him to cherry-pick only the evidence and lore that fits his theory, but looking at it from the much more likely scope of just entertainment, then a little embellishment to tell a good story is just par for the course for any good entertainer. As he says in every single Game Theory video, "that's just a theory", meaning that he isn't taking his own theories as fact, nor is he encouraging anyone else to do so. The fact that less mature viewers that watch his videos and believe them to be true is irrelevant because, as I said, I used to be one of those less mature viewers. Then, I grew up, and started to see theory videos, like MatPat's as what they really are: entertainment that you can put on in the background while doing other activities.
I MEAN.. the thing is he, still does stand by this theory to this day, and seems as so that he still regards his Mario is Mental theory as canon to himself. like in some recent videos, tho I cant really.. find the videos right now. but it's fine. i don't really hate Matpat at all, but I just hope he'd like acknowledge that its completely debunked some day, since he does that with some other theories I'm pretty sure. I think he said that it's one of the Mario theories he stiil completely believes in, I remember it vividly but I can't find the video. but yeah, Oh and i feel as though this video debunking MatPat should not be so harsh or anger-driven. A calm rebuttal would be just as effective, or more even.
Oh gawd sorry, i didn't see that bit in the end of this video about MatPat talkin about how to make the theories and to leave out contradictions. Yeah he probably doesn't believe in the theory and just.. in those videos i mentioned where he says he believes it are probably supposed to be light-hearted jokes or somethin.
Though, now after finding that out, it's really annoying that he just slanders a character and stands by it to this day. even tho its a false theory he knows is false.
MatPat's "theories" remind me of my schizophrenic grandpa's ramblings. I'm not saying MatPat has schizophrenia, but he certainly seems to go in weird almost incoherent tangents.
His theories also remind me of various conspiracy nut theories. Like the one conspiracy theory about lizard people secretly are running the country and are wearing masks to blend in with society. It sounds like it could be a matpat theory if you just apply it to Legend of Zelda or Pokemon or Minecraft or whatever.
32:56/ 33:07 Wow if someone manages to use Paper mario color splash and mario party 9 the games that people hates as evidence that is a sign that you messed up the theory bad.
Why does your voice fit the Yu-Gi-Oh characters more than the actual voice actors in Japanese and English?
I feel like matpat just cares about money now. He doesnt care about the theories, he doesnt care about the genre, or game, or _show._ His theories have fallen dry and make zero sense anymore and I've lost respect for him.
He just retired
Are you saying that because of this theory? Because this theory is years old before he had a bigger team to help him with fact checking and yet your comment implies you think it's a recent one that's bad and was only made for money. Also Matpat just announced recently that he's retiring from being the face of the theory channels so he can spend more time with his family. I don't see how that is being focused more on money.
@@ShadowDemon_4 Im not saying that just because of his theory. In _general_ his theories, in my opinion, have kinda fallen. I dont mean hatred toward anyone at all, and people can watch him if they want. I personally dont anymore because of that fact though.
@@ABANDONED23456He has branched out with more things but a lot of people do that now and at least some of his content teaches you important things. I personally like the theory channels but if you don't I guess that's ok.
Boy hope there's an explanation why he is a villain, to Donkey Kong from. The beginning an after all I find it shocking that he, was horrible but ya it's just a bad example to teach kids to be violent towards animals irl. In my opinion, but in terms of respect it is a video game design in a strange way. An not sure what to say, about the comic books that make it any worse or cartoon series? But eh mario is terrifying
5:50 except that he's cognitive enough to speak because I highly doubt cranky wasn't screaming to be wet free out of his goddamn cage or he was going to tear Mario to shreads
Donkey kong doesn't speak at all in the game, cranky kong might have learned to speak after the events the arcade game.
Something just tells me you might like Yuri. Hmmmmmm
9:00 exactly only when he touches them they don't even seek him out or anything
It doesn't matter if their not chasing after them, they can still hurt mario from contact.
@@superwhipbros6493 are you aware of the concept of self defense😑 they only hurt Mario when Mario bumps into them most likely hurting them that is self-defense these creatures are innocent they did nothing to Mario to deserve getting assaulted
how is the wiggler that attacked mario first in mario 64 doing self defense? How is the wiggler that almost trampled delfino residents in super mario sunshine doing self defense? Answer, their not. and the only thing that mario has ever done to the wigglers was bounce on their heads, but thats the players who play the games choice, not mario. and mario doesn't even try to assault the wigglers, in mario 64, mario didn't even know there would be a wiggler inside the mountain in tiny island, and when he confronted it, it was to late as the battle has already started, and mario doesn't fully kill the wiggler, he stomps on it enough for it to stop attacking him, and the wiggler realizes the misunderstanding and gives mario a star.
3:29 he is still laughing at an ape when he burns his hands still a good enough reason to get even with the Jumpman
Ok and? Many people the circus that the game was placed in probably laughing at donkey kong. And besides, its a non-canon game.
