HEY so this videos getting a teensy bit (a lot) bigger than I thought so if you have a video topic idea let me know! Can be about literally anything. I really wanna keep making videos so uh yeah this is kinda hype 🐢 Big massive thanks for all of the comments and support and anyone letting me know how I can improve (I wanna get better lol) (also I know I forgot the super mario land games, I don’t know how either they’re literally right there)
@@leslieking5272yep. Despite it being the most famous of the Snifits, only 1 in the entire game appears. Similarly, in Super Mario Bros 3 there is only 1 Fire Nipper Plant in the game
@@biondigiacomo7176 On the subject of rare fire-spitting plants, there are also the Jumping Fire Piranha Plants from Super Mario World. Do you wanna know how many of them appear and in how many levels? A whopping *8* of them, in only *4 levels:* 1 in Cookie Mountain, 5 in Outrageous, 1 in Funky and 1 in Groovy. With how common the normal Jumping Piranha Plants are in the game, you'd think we'd at least see more of their fire-spitting brethren...
The Angry Sun is a good example of moderation. Its only appearance in Mario 3 was so memorable and unforgettable. Back then, first time players would think it was just a background element, until it swoops down to attack you.
When I saw the Angry Sun for the first time as a kid, that thing used to scare the living crap outta me. Something about their angry look both in NES and SNES just makes it all unnerving. Not only that, I also used to make theories about why the sun looks so pissed off. It was either they were pissed at Mario because Bowser told them a lie and ran with it, or it was so hot that the sun just decided to fuck with Mario.
One that I always loved was Whimp from Galaxy 2. They only appear in the King Whomp battle but their design is iconic, adorable and they're just funny little guys.
Some minor notes: - In Super Mario World, Bullet Bills turn into Pidgits when the "Fall" textures are applied after completing all 96 exits - The throwable blocks in Super Mario Bros. 3 returned in Super Mario World as Grab Blocks and New Super Mario Bros. Wii as Ice Blocks - Lil Sparkies and Hotheads are finally back in Super Mario Bros. Wonder - Ukikis were introduced in Super Mario World 2: Yoshi's Island and have become a staple in the Yoshi series - Torkdrift in Super Mario Odyssey is said to be a mechanical Spindrift - "OnLy SeVeN hUnDrEd NiNeTy-NiNe WoRdS tO gO!!!" This was a very funny video. Thank you!
Really wish Sherms where a mainstay, I've always wanted a tank enemy in Mario games and when we finally got one in Odyssey I really enjoyed it and it's gameplay mechanics
My favorites are the zoned-out, sloppy tongued Boos from Mario Sunshine, in the hotel level. They're like the happy medium between cute & funny-looking imo. I love them so much I lowkey wish that they became the standard Boo "look" going from there. Or atleast became a recurring subspecies... I want them back.
nice to see someone else cares about the sunshine boos. and yea i'd like to imagine these are a separate subspecies or something... may or may not tie into my headcanon that the reason king boo looks so weird in sunshine is because its really just the largest isle delfino boo that decided to slap on a crown to make himself scarier to mario considering luigi's mansion king boo managed to trounce him and slap the mario into a painting
The actual reason why the Boo's look like that in Sunshine, as well as most of the enemies as a whole, is because it's implied Bowser Jr. used his Magic Paintbrush to bring them to life, which is also likely why we never see any of the enemies from Sunshine ever again.
@@ingothasnolife8040huh i never thought of it like that! thats pretty neat i like thinking of the sunshine enemies as like the "alolan forms" of mario baddies lol. like they've been on this island for so long that they've diverged and become their own slightly different species. explains why the skeeters, electro koopas, piranha plants, boos, etc look kinda weird! bob ombs and bullet bills are built by different makers, and you could think of the stu's as filling a similar ecological role as goombas in the mushroom kingdom
@new__guy technically speaking, you're not wrong about one enemy! Cataquacks are a species derived from Wigglers and have always been on Dolphino Island, it's why they can't die(because they're innocent creatures) and don't have any traces of being a Paint Creature, the Residents in the stage they appear in even state that the Cataquacks have always resided on the Island and are natural to Isle Dolphino.
I'm surprised you didn't include Super Mario Land 2 in this list; the vast amount of unusual quirky enemies in that game is insane. Between the one-of-a-kind dracula enemy, to the jack in the box question blocks, to those little gnome guys that steal 1ups.
The whole Super Mario Land trilogy fits that bill tbh. It almost feels like the only reason you even see Goombas, Koopa Troopas, and Piranha Plants in those games is just for the sake of tradition, just because they felt they had to or something, because almost everything else is completely weird and new and wacky in all those games.
@@Rice_enjoyer999 Interesting. That might just be some transliteration thing or whatever though, I mean Goombas aren't even called that in Japan (they're called Kuribo) so it might just be some telephone-game-esque distortion of the name rather than trying to really be a different enemy altogether. But if it is supposed to be different then I guess that just enforces my point even more.
@@Rice_enjoyer999 Goombos yeah!! I thought I was the only nerdy mario obscure enemy enthusiast who remembered that XD For all intents and purposes, they are like pretty much Goomba's lol. I do kind of like the notion though that Sarasaland has it's own equivalent variation.
One of my favorite past times as a kid was browsing the Super Mario Wiki and absorbing the names of every obscure enemy I could find. Anuboos, Rawbuses, Snoodles, all of 'em. I'd KILL to see the design docs for some of these characters, because I'm fairly certain it's where my love for monster designs started. (Well maybe Pokemon had something to do with it too.) This video makes me so dang happy, thank you so much! The Galaxy section was flawless :)
To me, the king of this is Phantamanta. Not only is it a contender for most out of place Super Mario boss EVER, it only came back once. 20 years later. In a different franchise.
This video's great! I love Mario's roster of goofy enemies. I think the most notable thing about Bramball is that they appear briefly in the Mario movie as one of the first enemies Mario really encounters. Although I guess he's not really an enemy so much as just a creature. How many of the enemies in Mario games are actually a part of the Koopa Troop and how many are just wild critters that get in Mario's way? I wonder.
The skedaddlers from mario wonder are a great example of wildlife that just gets in Mario's way. They're just trying to run away and survive, but you mercilessly hunt them down regardless.
One thing about the Mario Bros. series that always stood out to me was just how many enemies show up for like one stage, or indeed only once ever, and then never again. The red Sniffit from Mario 2 USA and the Dracula from Super Mario Land 2 are both unique. The green toxin bubbles, Torpedo Teds, and Boo Blocks from SMW also show up for only one stage each though there are several. It's like the designers were like "You know what this stage needs? A unique, inexplicable encountee that makes people wonder why we put it here. Why? No idea."
They brought back Torpedo teds for Galaxy and U, and we’ve seen tons of red snifits in the movie, Paper Mario games, etc, but you also forget to mention the single nipper in SMB3 that can breathe fire in world 7. Never used again.
"Spindrifts are special because they're one of the only enemies you can find in Walmart" LOL this vid's ridiculously good for the size of the channel; I subbed! keep making vids, you have talent!
4:16 Mr. Eye actually had a comeback in Super Paper Mario, where you would have to use the third dimension to walk around it. In this game there was also a red variant of Mr. Eye but I'm not sure if it has a dark variant. Adding to that, the developers went absolutely crazy with Super Paper Mario, adding a ton of enemies which haven't been reused since. I still have nightmares from the Three-Faced Piggbank enemy which will zoom around extremely fast if you hit it a few times.
@@irisinthedarkworld I don't remember many names, but I noticed that the squiglet type enemies move their feet like a conveyor belt and seeing how their feet disappeared looks very wrong...
There actually is a Dark I. leftover in the game files. Probably scrapped because dark enemies are restricted to the Flopside Pit of 100 Trials, where all the floors are 2D and not 3D. You can also use Fleep to kill any I. enemy easily.
8:27 The little Wiggler enemy also appears in Mario & Luigi: Bowser's Inside Story. It's in Dimble Woods before the Carrot minigame, where it calls Bowser "fat"
Actually, Fire Chomps do make one appearance in later games than SMB3, and it's a weird one. Specifically in SM64DS, the weird black orbs that spit fire were retextured into being Fire Chomps. It's unclear if they were always meant to be Fire Chomps and they just didn't convey it well in original SM64, or this was part of the general retexture of a lot of SM64's weirder enemies to increase aesthetic cohesion in the remake, like the Scuttlebugs using their striped NSMB design instead of their marbled orange look. I think Moneybags appeared in at least one of the NSMBs, too...
I think they were intended to be Flame Chomps cuz originally in SMB3 the Flame Chomps were also faceless black orbs (in SMB3 their faces only appeared in flashing flames before they spit a fireball but otherwise they were black orbs)
@@darthtrollerThe Wiki lists them as different enemies from flame chomps entirely. Flame chomps do appear in every NSMB game, even if only one appears in a secret area in NSMBU.
This video was great, I love to all the weird and obscure enemies in the Mario games so this was a great video to highlight them all and was pretty funny. I also think it’s cool how many unique enemies the first new super Mario bros game has considering the reputation the series has for being unoriginal, people say that the first new super Mario bros game is the most original and I feel the unique enemies help to prove that. Justice for splunkin.
VIDEO IS SO GOOD. Nice topic choice, and I have played almost all of these games. Love your style, pace, humor, direction of content, etc. Youve got a grip on how to make a great video. Seems like you’ve either studied well or have been influenced by the right pages, this is great and I hope you upload more.
That actually reminds me, it's kinda funny how Nintendo has made Shy Guys like the default, basic main enemy of so many of the different Mario spinoff series _except_ the main series itself, where they almost never appear and instead the goombas are used. They're the main enemies in Yoshi's Island and the Yoshi Series, they're the main enemies in the Mario vs. Donkey Kong series, they're the main enemies in Captain Toad: Treasure Tracker, they've become VERY prominent in the later Paper Mario games, and I'm sure I'm forgetting something. It's like almost everything _except_ the mainline games themselves lol. If the Wario Land series weren't the creation of R&D1 kinda "going rogue" and doing their own thing and who weren't very connected to the main Mario team, I would not be surprised if Shy Guys would have ended up becoming a main enemy in that series too, and I'm quite surprised that they're apparently not in Super Princess Peach, that seems like exactly the kind of game that would have them given just how much it directly rips from Yoshi's Island.
@@pepearown4968 True. But also a lot of Shy-Guys alongside them which isn't the case in the mainline games, so the point still stands. Yoshi's Island also has Goombas in it.
Nice work here Spin404! It seems like you're talented and you have a good sense of humor. It'd be neat to see more like this from you! Something you did well here was a good sense of pacing. A lot of lists like this can spend too much time on introductions, but you got to the main content of the video promptly. Videos like your Monopoly speedrun require more explanation but it certainly seems like you improved the pacing here by getting to the main content much faster. That's good to see! Likewise, for the main content you handled the pacing well too. You did a good job spending enough time on each enemy to explain it and have a joke or two, without making it take too long or rushing through. In particular it's excellent that you didn't have any annoying gimmicks that dragged out or a reliance on repetitive memes/references. That's a great talent to have at a content creator! Along those same lines, good work with the audio and video quality. The background music and your voice are balanced well where the music is quieter and doesn't drown you out, and your voice isn't too loud or too quiet. Thanks for not doing annoying voices or relying on loud noises for comedy! On the video side, good use of a variety of gameplay footage, concept art and other scenes for jokes. On that note, a major strength of your content here is the variety in the commentary. Fantastic job using various different jokes instead of repeating the same one over and over, and similarly varying what you commented on for each enemy from the designs to the names to the behavior in games and etc. That's really what keeps this format of going through a list of things interesting. Another strong point is the casual friendly tone you kept throughout the video. Did you write a script for this? It feels well-formatted enough to be scripted but the way you speak makes it feel more like a casual conversation. That's an excellent combination! Since you mentioned wanting to know how to improve in your comment, the first thing that came to mind is if you kept the variety and pacing up you could do longer content. You were doing a good enough job here that I was still wanting to hear more by the end. Another thought is you were doing a good job being lighthearted and humorous throughout the video and except for the Digga joke and the drug references it was family-friendly humor too. Since you can be comedic without relying on profane humor, if you wanted that family audience it seems like you could do just clean humor going forward and still be funny. Also, a good aspect of his video was how you were casually informative while still focusing on the humor, like when talking about the names of enemies or the in-game mechanics. It'd be interesting to see more trivia/information woven throughout alongside the comedy. Similarly, it seems like you have a knack for editing and it was neat to see you do things like the MSPaint doodles in your Minecraft video and cuts to support jokes here like the Scuttlebug calendar and the Grapenuts box so more like that would be welcome. Lastly, ending on a joke like you did here and in the Minecraft video is a great way to go out on a high note! You also asked about video topic ideas in your comment. It's impressive how your video ideas so far have been clever twists on popular content, like the Minecraft items in real life is definitely one of the more creative ideas I've seen for a Minecraft-related video outside of gameplay, speedrunning a boardgame like Monopoly is a clever twist on video game speedrunning, and even here it's neat that you just picked out Mario enemies you wanted to talk about and just did it instead of doing something more standard like a Top 10 list or Tier list or such. Also your January Holidays video was a fun joke too. Is there anything in particular you wanted to focus on? Since you handled this format well doing more weird/obscure facts in this lighthearted and comedic way would be neat, whether it's things in video games, board games, or just things in general. Your January Holidays video was well-scripted and a great example of clever sketch comedy so if that's what your interested in it certainly seems like you have a talent for it, but it might not get as much algorithm attention. The Mr. Eye in the Lego set was surprising and interesting to see, and you seem entertaining enough that if you have interesting things like that you could probably make videos just talking about them. In any case, whatever you decide to do I hope it goes well for you. Thanks for putting in the effort to make good videos for everyone. Good luck with everything!
Im glad I got this recommended, I love this type of videos and especially from someone that is just starting, I hope you get more recognition along the way. Keep up the good work! :)
Tbh, crowbers are actually a bit common enemies. Although not really mentioned to be them exactly, they are enemies on the Luigi's mansion saga, as crows are both background elements to form ambience and as actual enemies both in Luigi's Mansion Dark Moon and Luigi's Mansion 3. And in the mainline games, they reappered as assistants in Dr. Mario World, as part of some Lego sets, as origami enemies in Paper Mario: The Origami King, and in Mario + Rabbids as ambience characters; so even if obscure, they're definitely not forgotten.
Great video, really glad this got recommended to me. I'm guessing Scott The Woz was an inspiration to you, because I can sense that kind of humor in your work, and that is absolutely a good thing. You've gained yourself another subscriber, because I'm curious what you'll create next!
I noticed this, too. It's fine to have an inspiration, but I'd say at least try to differentiate yourself. Otherwise you're kinda just aping his shit ya know. Not a bad video at all tho.
Yeah the style is really identical to Scott’s. It’s the exact same type of jokes, mini skits, cutaway gags, and abrupt ending. The topic and overall content are fine enough, but I hope he can find his own voice.
@@hylianro So im miserable because i dont like a unfunny CZcamsr? Id say you are far more sad, since you are clearly pissed because someone doesnt like the same CZcamsr that you do.
Great video! I love this style of content and honestly wouldn't mind a second video on some more obscure Mario enemies since there's certainly no shortage of them. Mad respect for wanting half of these guys in Mario Kart, I would've said the same. Justice for blockhoppers. I do agree that Tropical Wiggler and Pokio are Odyssey's best new enemies, and honestly I think Tropical Wiggler might be my favorite Mario enemy of all time. He's such a silly goober.
This was a really well done video! But now we need a follow-up just going over the Mario Land enemies, because there's definitely a lot of strange ones there.
SM3DW, you're kinda forgetting Rammerheads, a massive W design. Also Conkdors are some of my favorite enemies in the series, they're so goofy I love them. As for Ant Troopers, they *are* genuinely very mechanically interesting enemies, the aerial gameplay they allow for, juggling the player on their heads without any other platforms to jump on, make for some great gameplay. This compilation really highlights the fact that NSMB just had so much more in terms of interesting ideas than its sequels that brought down its reputation (mainly NSMBU and NSMB2, I liked NSMBW a lot). That being said, I really appreciated that Brambles made an appearance in the movie, kinda wish some of these other enemies were highlighted.
Fuzzlers (as their name implies, a fuzzy and Wiggler hybrid) were some of the most forgettable enemies in 3D World, but Nintendo cared about them enough to give them a cat variant in Bowser’s Fury.
This is the kind of content I come to CZcams for brother! Also the algorithm gave you a huge endorsement putting you at the top of the recommended videos while I was watching another video game CZcamsr's vids. Keep making this kind of video it's great entertainment. S tier.
Even though Buster Beetles never came back, shell-less blue Koopa Troopas from Super Mario World act very similarly. They will kick various objects towards you, including Grab Blocks. The Outmaways from Super Mario Wonder are also somewhat similar, kicking ice blocks at the player. There’s more than just 3 dinosaur enemies in Super Mario World, you’re forgetting about Eeries (ghost dinosaurs), Blarggs (lava dinosaurs), and the Reznors (boss triceratops). I never thought of the Blockhoppers as being aliens, though it’s an interesting idea. Considering ? Blocks and Brick Blocks can be found all over the universe in Galaxy and in other dimensions in Super Paper Mario, I guess it’s possible. Crowbers are indeed only in one level in the original New Super Mario Bros, but they return in NSMBWii and NSMB2, and even appear in Paper Mario: The Origami King as origami enemies. You forgot about Bone Piranha Plants and Boohemoth from NSMB2, which I guess means that game has at least three original enemies.
Loved this. My favorite SM64 enemy design was always the Chuckya, with Spindrifts and Skeeters following behind. I really hope they appear again someday, Chuckyas especially. I also like those weird Boo variants in SMW with the snide expression and the puffy cheeks, I hope they come back. Weirdest enemy to me by a long shot is the Keronpa Ball in SM64. They're just a metallic orb that expands, then contracts after shooting a fireball. They feel like a leftover from the development stage and like they aren't really supposed to be there, and also feel like they were put together in 10 minutes.
Idk why but ranking how cool the enemies from the fall textures for Super Mario World would be a really fun idea to me. Especially with everything witty you said during this video🤣
Note1: Pumpkin goomba in Galaxy is like Splumpkin Note 2: Starbag: Funky coin coffer/moneybag but for Galaxy/Galaxy 2, these dudes are notable for being invisible but leaving footsteps in the sand, so they are actually found around quite a bit in sand levels/sand patches, and they show up if you hold still. Note 3: Cluckboom deserves a place on the list, boi tosses bombs like Lakitu tosses spiky children. Note 4: This is my most obscure foe (Took gamers about 5 years before they figured out where it is in-game in Dusty Dune Galaxy) the eye beamer. Found beaming lasers onto planets in strange hoop shapes, they scan stuff. Why do they scan things? Who made them? How did they get there and why do they shock Mario when he touches their eye beams? No clue, but you can jump on their backs as platforms, so there's that I guess.
Dude... No way. I'm watching this vid halfway thru 11 PM, and I hear 6:40... LITERALLY HOW WAS THE TIMING PERFECT. I have a math assignment due at 12 AM! Why was I reminded that I didn't do it 🤣
Can I just say, I literally just discovered this video and am so glad that there are more Mario Enemy Connoisseurs out there. I love the way you put in the real-life joke skits made by yourself, it's charming. Keep up the great work, by the way! I would definitely make an Episode 2 featuring the Mario RPG, Paper Mario, and Mario and Luigi enemies. I KIDD! I KIDD!! There's A TON of them. 😆
My favorite weird mario enemy is tox box, specifically its galaxy redesign- ive always thought it was weird and kinda creepy that it has faces on each… well, face, and how they have a completely different second face-per-face depending on its orientation. And its kinda cool that the inside of it is red, like your actually going into its mouth. Plus the whole “sentient block if stone” thing that a lot of mario enemies have is just kinda interesting to think about, like does each side of this thing have its own consciousness? Does it see through all of its eyes at once? Anyway, im just a big appreciator of weird mario stuff tbh
I love all the weird enemies that will just randomly appear in one single game some don’t even seem like they would be in Mario but they’re still cool Great video man I was just thinking about the weird enemies the other day playing through 3d Land and world and then Mario 3
The dumb little jokes like "write that down there will be a test" and "I try to think of them atleast once a month" are so funny, they remind me of Scott the Woz's humor (in a good way). You've earned a like and a sub!
For some reason, i was already subbed to this channel. i have never watched any of your videos until now... Make more like this, it's very entertaining
My favorite weird enemy is definitely the Fizzlit from Super Mario Galaxy 2. Just a weird electric gummy tooth. Its sad that everybody, no matter how thorough (including this video), forgets about them. JUSTICE FOR FIZZLITS!
Finally someone made a video about this because weird enemies have always been some of my favorite parts of any Mario game, in fact one of the reasons that motivate me to play them and they stick with me long after playing it. In mario 3 for example I love getting to the end worlds because I know shit starts to get weird even for a Mario game. And don't even get me started on Super Mario World, my favorite Mario game, I think you know why...
Great vid! If you’re looking for more funny enemies, Mario Land’s Tokotokos have personally captured my heart. Just look ‘em up, what funny little guys
Love that youtube is recommending smaller channels nowadays like this one. You definitely deserve it! Great humor, great pacing, and an awesome video overall! Excited to see what comes next! (Also, I don’t know what series you play, but a Zelda version of this would be fascinating!)
I love your sense of humor with the jokes sprinkled in and your editing style, kinda reminds me a bit of Scott the Woz subbed!! would love to see more videos on nintendo stuff like this, maybe zelda or pikmin?
I think the Fliprus from NSMBU is a pretty funky little guy, they have a whole stage dedicated to them but its the one single stage they appear in and its also one of the super secret world skipping stages that replace cannons in that game. They're like the enemy equivalent of that one cartoon that showed a lot of love and potential but got shoved off to the networks little cousin cause it wasnt immediately pulling in the same viewers as their most popular shows
New Super Mario Bros. DS had so many obscure enemies. You forgot to mention that one Boo ghost in that game, it was a very weird-looking Boo, it appears in only one of the haunted houses *(forgot which one)* and it would puff itself up very big making this terrifying noise when you looked at it, and then when you looked away or ran away, it's chase you, making a shuffling noise as it deflates. That thing scared the crap out of me as a kid. It also had rosy cheeks and a very weird shaped mouth, which added to my fear.
Block-Steppers are great. The little panic they do when you squish one of their buddies is so endearing. Skipsquaks are also pretty cute. I don’t know if it really counts as an enemy per se if it doesn’t hurt you, but the Grumblump has an S-tier name and is just a weird little guy.
Honestly grumblump is technically an enemy because I mean a lot of people struggle with those tox box look a likes. Also don’t ever ground pound them unless you want more of a challenge
If Nintendo continues to restrict the Paper Mario devs from making more weird new enemies, then digging through the archives and bringing back a bunch of the weird one off enemies would be a fairly decent compromise imo. Lots of potential there.
The Mario & Luigi games did this a lot more. For example the bird on the flying carpet from Mario Bros 2 appears in Partners In Time, and the dino enemies who you can squish by jumping on them from Mario World appear in Superstar Saga
I love the obscure Mario enemies. I had the strategy guide for Mario 64 as a kid and I loved looking at all the weird enemies. I’d love to see you take a crack at obscure enemies from other series

Really wish Sherms where a mainstay, I've always wanted a tank enemy in Mario games and when we finally got one in Odyssey I really enjoyed it and it's gameplay mechanics
I'm surprised Sherm and Pokio aren't pseudo staples given they were very obviously aligned with Bowsers Army in Odyssey
@@OriginalGameteeryou guys are talking like wonder isn’t the first game since their appearance. They could definitely appear in the next 3d mario
My favorites are the zoned-out, sloppy tongued Boos from Mario Sunshine, in the hotel level.
They're like the happy medium between cute & funny-looking imo.
I love them so much I lowkey wish that they became the standard Boo "look" going from there. Or atleast became a recurring subspecies...
I want them back.
nice to see someone else cares about the sunshine boos. and yea i'd like to imagine these are a separate subspecies or something... may or may not tie into my headcanon that the reason king boo looks so weird in sunshine is because its really just the largest isle delfino boo that decided to slap on a crown to make himself scarier to mario considering luigi's mansion king boo managed to trounce him and slap the mario into a painting
The actual reason why the Boo's look like that in Sunshine, as well as most of the enemies as a whole, is because it's implied Bowser Jr. used his Magic Paintbrush to bring them to life, which is also likely why we never see any of the enemies from Sunshine ever again.
@@ingothasnolife8040huh i never thought of it like that! thats pretty neat
i like thinking of the sunshine enemies as like the "alolan forms" of mario baddies lol. like they've been on this island for so long that they've diverged and become their own slightly different species. explains why the skeeters, electro koopas, piranha plants, boos, etc look kinda weird! bob ombs and bullet bills are built by different makers, and you could think of the stu's as filling a similar ecological role as goombas in the mushroom kingdom
@new__guy technically speaking, you're not wrong about one enemy! Cataquacks are a species derived from Wigglers and have always been on Dolphino Island, it's why they can't die(because they're innocent creatures) and don't have any traces of being a Paint Creature, the Residents in the stage they appear in even state that the Cataquacks have always resided on the Island and are natural to Isle Dolphino.
@@ingothasnolife8040 ...huh. i've never noticed the similarities between wiggler segments and cataquacks. the more you know
I'm surprised you didn't include Super Mario Land 2 in this list; the vast amount of unusual quirky enemies in that game is insane. Between the one-of-a-kind dracula enemy, to the jack in the box question blocks, to those little gnome guys that steal 1ups.
The whole Super Mario Land trilogy fits that bill tbh. It almost feels like the only reason you even see Goombas, Koopa Troopas, and Piranha Plants in those games is just for the sake of tradition, just because they felt they had to or something, because almost everything else is completely weird and new and wacky in all those games.
@legoboy7107 In the first game, I'm pretty sure they aren't gombas, but a similar creature called the gumbo
@@Rice_enjoyer999 Interesting. That might just be some transliteration thing or whatever though, I mean Goombas aren't even called that in Japan (they're called Kuribo) so it might just be some telephone-game-esque distortion of the name rather than trying to really be a different enemy altogether. But if it is supposed to be different then I guess that just enforces my point even more.
@@Rice_enjoyer999 Goombos yeah!! I thought I was the only nerdy mario obscure enemy enthusiast who remembered that XD
For all intents and purposes, they are like pretty much Goomba's lol. I do kind of like the notion though that Sarasaland has it's own equivalent variation.
The entirety of Super Mario Land 2 is weird and obscure
One of my favorite past times as a kid was browsing the Super Mario Wiki and absorbing the names of every obscure enemy I could find. Anuboos, Rawbuses, Snoodles, all of 'em. I'd KILL to see the design docs for some of these characters, because I'm fairly certain it's where my love for monster designs started. (Well maybe Pokemon had something to do with it too.)
This video makes me so dang happy, thank you so much! The Galaxy section was flawless :)
Same bro
Fr id look up a random obscure Mario enemy and then just go on a journey going through all the links to other obscure enemies
To me, the king of this is Phantamanta. Not only is it a contender for most out of place Super Mario boss EVER, it only came back once. 20 years later. In a different franchise.
It came back?
@@ballisticboo7808 in splatoon 3 during a big man boss fight.
This video's great! I love Mario's roster of goofy enemies. I think the most notable thing about Bramball is that they appear briefly in the Mario movie as one of the first enemies Mario really encounters. Although I guess he's not really an enemy so much as just a creature. How many of the enemies in Mario games are actually a part of the Koopa Troop and how many are just wild critters that get in Mario's way? I wonder.
The skedaddlers from mario wonder are a great example of wildlife that just gets in Mario's way. They're just trying to run away and survive, but you mercilessly hunt them down regardless.
i really like mario wonder's approach with making so many new and unique enemies that seeing old enemies in levels feels more surprising
One thing about the Mario Bros. series that always stood out to me was just how many enemies show up for like one stage, or indeed only once ever, and then never again. The red Sniffit from Mario 2 USA and the Dracula from Super Mario Land 2 are both unique. The green toxin bubbles, Torpedo Teds, and Boo Blocks from SMW also show up for only one stage each though there are several. It's like the designers were like "You know what this stage needs? A unique, inexplicable encountee that makes people wonder why we put it here. Why? No idea."
They brought back Torpedo teds for Galaxy and U, and we’ve seen tons of red snifits in the movie, Paper Mario games, etc, but you also forget to mention the single nipper in SMB3 that can breathe fire in world 7. Never used again.
"Spindrifts are special because they're one of the only enemies you can find in Walmart" LOL
this vid's ridiculously good for the size of the channel; I subbed! keep making vids, you have talent!
4:16
Mr. Eye actually had a comeback in Super Paper Mario, where you would have to use the third dimension to walk around it. In this game there was also a red variant of Mr. Eye but I'm not sure if it has a dark variant. Adding to that, the developers went absolutely crazy with Super Paper Mario, adding a ton of enemies which haven't been reused since. I still have nightmares from the Three-Faced Piggbank enemy which will zoom around extremely fast if you hit it a few times.
i love the weird enemies and art styles of that game, especially the obscure variants of already obscure enemies
Weeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeed… get it cuz red eye haha
@@lesser_thesecond1198 They probably got hit by the gas farting cloud enemies
@@irisinthedarkworld I don't remember many names, but I noticed that the squiglet type enemies move their feet like a conveyor belt and seeing how their feet disappeared looks very wrong...
There actually is a Dark I. leftover in the game files. Probably scrapped because dark enemies are restricted to the Flopside Pit of 100 Trials, where all the floors are 2D and not 3D. You can also use Fleep to kill any I. enemy easily.
8:27 The little Wiggler enemy also appears in Mario & Luigi: Bowser's Inside Story. It's in Dimble Woods before the Carrot minigame, where it calls Bowser "fat"
Actually, Fire Chomps do make one appearance in later games than SMB3, and it's a weird one. Specifically in SM64DS, the weird black orbs that spit fire were retextured into being Fire Chomps. It's unclear if they were always meant to be Fire Chomps and they just didn't convey it well in original SM64, or this was part of the general retexture of a lot of SM64's weirder enemies to increase aesthetic cohesion in the remake, like the Scuttlebugs using their striped NSMB design instead of their marbled orange look. I think Moneybags appeared in at least one of the NSMBs, too...
I think they were intended to be Flame Chomps cuz originally in SMB3 the Flame Chomps were also faceless black orbs (in SMB3 their faces only appeared in flashing flames before they spit a fireball but otherwise they were black orbs)
@@darthtrollerThe Wiki lists them as different enemies from flame chomps entirely.
Flame chomps do appear in every NSMB game, even if only one appears in a secret area in NSMBU.
@pepearown4968 oh yeah that's true, I still think it's kinda weird to differentiate enemies like that
This is a pretty high quality video, great work! I'm excited to see what you come up with next!
This video was great, I love to all the weird and obscure enemies in the Mario games so this was a great video to highlight them all and was pretty funny. I also think it’s cool how many unique enemies the first new super Mario bros game has considering the reputation the series has for being unoriginal, people say that the first new super Mario bros game is the most original and I feel the unique enemies help to prove that. Justice for splunkin.
VIDEO IS SO GOOD. Nice topic choice, and I have played almost all of these games. Love your style, pace, humor, direction of content, etc. Youve got a grip on how to make a great video. Seems like you’ve either studied well or have been influenced by the right pages, this is great and I hope you upload more.
The production quality of this vid is actually amazing and impressive, keep up the good work man
You should do some spinoff enemies, like the black Shy Guys in Mario Vs Donkey Kong that throw wrenches that serve no purpose in the game at all
That actually reminds me, it's kinda funny how Nintendo has made Shy Guys like the default, basic main enemy of so many of the different Mario spinoff series _except_ the main series itself, where they almost never appear and instead the goombas are used. They're the main enemies in Yoshi's Island and the Yoshi Series, they're the main enemies in the Mario vs. Donkey Kong series, they're the main enemies in Captain Toad: Treasure Tracker, they've become VERY prominent in the later Paper Mario games, and I'm sure I'm forgetting something. It's like almost everything _except_ the mainline games themselves lol.
If the Wario Land series weren't the creation of R&D1 kinda "going rogue" and doing their own thing and who weren't very connected to the main Mario team, I would not be surprised if Shy Guys would have ended up becoming a main enemy in that series too, and I'm quite surprised that they're apparently not in Super Princess Peach, that seems like exactly the kind of game that would have them given just how much it directly rips from Yoshi's Island.
@@legoboy7107Both Treasure Tracker and modern Paper Mario have a lot of Goombas, though.
@@pepearown4968 True. But also a lot of Shy-Guys alongside them which isn't the case in the mainline games, so the point still stands. Yoshi's Island also has Goombas in it.
Nice work here Spin404! It seems like you're talented and you have a good sense of humor. It'd be neat to see more like this from you!
Something you did well here was a good sense of pacing. A lot of lists like this can spend too much time on introductions, but you got to the main content of the video promptly. Videos like your Monopoly speedrun require more explanation but it certainly seems like you improved the pacing here by getting to the main content much faster. That's good to see! Likewise, for the main content you handled the pacing well too. You did a good job spending enough time on each enemy to explain it and have a joke or two, without making it take too long or rushing through. In particular it's excellent that you didn't have any annoying gimmicks that dragged out or a reliance on repetitive memes/references. That's a great talent to have at a content creator!
Along those same lines, good work with the audio and video quality. The background music and your voice are balanced well where the music is quieter and doesn't drown you out, and your voice isn't too loud or too quiet. Thanks for not doing annoying voices or relying on loud noises for comedy! On the video side, good use of a variety of gameplay footage, concept art and other scenes for jokes.
On that note, a major strength of your content here is the variety in the commentary. Fantastic job using various different jokes instead of repeating the same one over and over, and similarly varying what you commented on for each enemy from the designs to the names to the behavior in games and etc. That's really what keeps this format of going through a list of things interesting. Another strong point is the casual friendly tone you kept throughout the video. Did you write a script for this? It feels well-formatted enough to be scripted but the way you speak makes it feel more like a casual conversation. That's an excellent combination!
Since you mentioned wanting to know how to improve in your comment, the first thing that came to mind is if you kept the variety and pacing up you could do longer content. You were doing a good enough job here that I was still wanting to hear more by the end. Another thought is you were doing a good job being lighthearted and humorous throughout the video and except for the Digga joke and the drug references it was family-friendly humor too. Since you can be comedic without relying on profane humor, if you wanted that family audience it seems like you could do just clean humor going forward and still be funny. Also, a good aspect of his video was how you were casually informative while still focusing on the humor, like when talking about the names of enemies or the in-game mechanics. It'd be interesting to see more trivia/information woven throughout alongside the comedy. Similarly, it seems like you have a knack for editing and it was neat to see you do things like the MSPaint doodles in your Minecraft video and cuts to support jokes here like the Scuttlebug calendar and the Grapenuts box so more like that would be welcome. Lastly, ending on a joke like you did here and in the Minecraft video is a great way to go out on a high note!
You also asked about video topic ideas in your comment. It's impressive how your video ideas so far have been clever twists on popular content, like the Minecraft items in real life is definitely one of the more creative ideas I've seen for a Minecraft-related video outside of gameplay, speedrunning a boardgame like Monopoly is a clever twist on video game speedrunning, and even here it's neat that you just picked out Mario enemies you wanted to talk about and just did it instead of doing something more standard like a Top 10 list or Tier list or such. Also your January Holidays video was a fun joke too. Is there anything in particular you wanted to focus on? Since you handled this format well doing more weird/obscure facts in this lighthearted and comedic way would be neat, whether it's things in video games, board games, or just things in general. Your January Holidays video was well-scripted and a great example of clever sketch comedy so if that's what your interested in it certainly seems like you have a talent for it, but it might not get as much algorithm attention. The Mr. Eye in the Lego set was surprising and interesting to see, and you seem entertaining enough that if you have interesting things like that you could probably make videos just talking about them.
In any case, whatever you decide to do I hope it goes well for you. Thanks for putting in the effort to make good videos for everyone. Good luck with everything!

Im glad I got this recommended, I love this type of videos and especially from someone that is just starting, I hope you get more recognition along the way. Keep up the good work! :)
Tbh, crowbers are actually a bit common enemies.
Although not really mentioned to be them exactly, they are enemies on the Luigi's mansion saga, as crows are both background elements to form ambience and as actual enemies both in Luigi's Mansion Dark Moon and Luigi's Mansion 3.
And in the mainline games, they reappered as assistants in Dr. Mario World, as part of some Lego sets, as origami enemies in Paper Mario: The Origami King, and in Mario + Rabbids as ambience characters; so even if obscure, they're definitely not forgotten.
This video made me genuinely laugh out loud. 10/10 new subscriber here
Hey, really enjoyed this video! I can already tell this channel has a lot of potential - keep up the great work!
Great video, really glad this got recommended to me. I'm guessing Scott The Woz was an inspiration to you, because I can sense that kind of humor in your work, and that is absolutely a good thing. You've gained yourself another subscriber, because I'm curious what you'll create next!
I noticed this, too. It's fine to have an inspiration, but I'd say at least try to differentiate yourself. Otherwise you're kinda just aping his shit ya know. Not a bad video at all tho.
Yeah the style is really identical to Scott’s. It’s the exact same type of jokes, mini skits, cutaway gags, and abrupt ending. The topic and overall content are fine enough, but I hope he can find his own voice.
Maybe that explains why i found the video so annoying at times. I cant stand Scotts humour.

Great video! I love this style of content and honestly wouldn't mind a second video on some more obscure Mario enemies since there's certainly no shortage of them. Mad respect for wanting half of these guys in Mario Kart, I would've said the same. Justice for blockhoppers.
I do agree that Tropical Wiggler and Pokio are Odyssey's best new enemies, and honestly I think Tropical Wiggler might be my favorite Mario enemy of all time. He's such a silly goober.
Hello fellow Blockhopper enthusiast. We need them to make a comeback.
I got desensitized by playing Yoshi’s Story on N64 as a kid. The whole game might as well be one weird enemy
Great vid, very entertaining, love the various quick skit-like edits. Need me a Cooligan cereal box rn
this was the first video of yours that I’ve watched and I thought it was really great and funny!
This was a really well done video! But now we need a follow-up just going over the Mario Land enemies, because there's definitely a lot of strange ones there.
SM3DW, you're kinda forgetting Rammerheads, a massive W design. Also Conkdors are some of my favorite enemies in the series, they're so goofy I love them. As for Ant Troopers, they *are* genuinely very mechanically interesting enemies, the aerial gameplay they allow for, juggling the player on their heads without any other platforms to jump on, make for some great gameplay.
This compilation really highlights the fact that NSMB just had so much more in terms of interesting ideas than its sequels that brought down its reputation (mainly NSMBU and NSMB2, I liked NSMBW a lot). That being said, I really appreciated that Brambles made an appearance in the movie, kinda wish some of these other enemies were highlighted.
Fr this is rammerhead erasure
Fuzzlers (as their name implies, a fuzzy and Wiggler hybrid) were some of the most forgettable enemies in 3D World, but Nintendo cared about them enough to give them a cat variant in Bowser’s Fury.
@@pepearown4968 Mechanically forgettable, but very cute design-wise so it's understandable
Amazing video! Keep up the great work this was so fun to watch.
This is the kind of content I come to CZcams for brother! Also the algorithm gave you a huge endorsement putting you at the top of the recommended videos while I was watching another video game CZcamsr's vids. Keep making this kind of video it's great entertainment. S tier.
Even though Buster Beetles never came back, shell-less blue Koopa Troopas from Super Mario World act very similarly. They will kick various objects towards you, including Grab Blocks. The Outmaways from Super Mario Wonder are also somewhat similar, kicking ice blocks at the player.
There’s more than just 3 dinosaur enemies in Super Mario World, you’re forgetting about Eeries (ghost dinosaurs), Blarggs (lava dinosaurs), and the Reznors (boss triceratops).
I never thought of the Blockhoppers as being aliens, though it’s an interesting idea. Considering ? Blocks and Brick Blocks can be found all over the universe in Galaxy and in other dimensions in Super Paper Mario, I guess it’s possible.
Crowbers are indeed only in one level in the original New Super Mario Bros, but they return in NSMBWii and NSMB2, and even appear in Paper Mario: The Origami King as origami enemies.
You forgot about Bone Piranha Plants and Boohemoth from NSMB2, which I guess means that game has at least three original enemies.
If you want to count them, NSMB2 also added in baby urchins. Just the normal urchin enemies, but smaller.
Loved this. My favorite SM64 enemy design was always the Chuckya, with Spindrifts and Skeeters following behind. I really hope they appear again someday, Chuckyas especially. I also like those weird Boo variants in SMW with the snide expression and the puffy cheeks, I hope they come back. Weirdest enemy to me by a long shot is the Keronpa Ball in SM64. They're just a metallic orb that expands, then contracts after shooting a fireball. They feel like a leftover from the development stage and like they aren't really supposed to be there, and also feel like they were put together in 10 minutes.
Great video, love your editing and humor!

This video has a massive Scott the Woz vibe and I’m living for it
Can’t believe you posted for my birthday, thank u 🎉
I really like the overall aspect of this video :) great job!
Note1: Pumpkin goomba in Galaxy is like Splumpkin
Note 2: Starbag: Funky coin coffer/moneybag but for Galaxy/Galaxy 2, these dudes are notable for being invisible but leaving footsteps in the sand, so they are actually found around quite a bit in sand levels/sand patches, and they show up if you hold still.
Note 3: Cluckboom deserves a place on the list, boi tosses bombs like Lakitu tosses spiky children.
Note 4: This is my most obscure foe (Took gamers about 5 years before they figured out where it is in-game in Dusty Dune Galaxy) the eye beamer. Found beaming lasers onto planets in strange hoop shapes, they scan stuff. Why do they scan things? Who made them? How did they get there and why do they shock Mario when he touches their eye beams? No clue, but you can jump on their backs as platforms, so there's that I guess.

Can I just say, I literally just discovered this video and am so glad that there are more Mario Enemy Connoisseurs out there. I love the way you put in the real-life joke skits made by yourself, it's charming. Keep up the great work, by the way! I would definitely make an Episode 2 featuring the Mario RPG, Paper Mario, and Mario and Luigi enemies. I KIDD! I KIDD!! There's A TON of them. 😆
Was suprised at the pace of this video. Short, sweet, and straight to the point. Snuck a lot of great jokes in that got a chuckle, appreciate you!
My favorite weird mario enemy is tox box, specifically its galaxy redesign- ive always thought it was weird and kinda creepy that it has faces on each… well, face, and how they have a completely different second face-per-face depending on its orientation. And its kinda cool that the inside of it is red, like your actually going into its mouth. Plus the whole “sentient block if stone” thing that a lot of mario enemies have is just kinda interesting to think about, like does each side of this thing have its own consciousness? Does it see through all of its eyes at once? Anyway, im just a big appreciator of weird mario stuff tbh
8:43 I renember these guys apparead in the mario movie
Alright pal, you’ve earned my like and subscribe. Keep up this kind of content
I love all the weird enemies that will just randomly appear in one single game some don’t even seem like they would be in Mario but they’re still cool Great video man I was just thinking about the weird enemies the other day playing through 3d Land and world and then Mario 3
5:58, Damn so all toads before this were female. I never knew.
The dumb little jokes like "write that down there will be a test" and "I try to think of them atleast once a month" are so funny, they remind me of Scott the Woz's humor (in a good way). You've earned a like and a sub!
Great video dude! Love when people cover obscure things like this. Great work!
For some reason, i was already subbed to this channel. i have never watched any of your videos until now...
Make more like this, it's very entertaining
1:33 Ah yes, the NSMBU-style Angry Sun. Beautiful.
Ok I would have chose the u style angry sun if I were you
My favorite weird enemy is definitely the Fizzlit from Super Mario Galaxy 2. Just a weird electric gummy tooth.
Its sad that everybody, no matter how thorough (including this video), forgets about them. JUSTICE FOR FIZZLITS!
I like their redesign in 3d world
The sugar stars from Wonder kind of remind me of them.
Finally someone made a video about this because weird enemies have always been some of my favorite parts of any Mario game, in fact one of the reasons that motivate me to play them and they stick with me long after playing it. In mario 3 for example I love getting to the end worlds because I know shit starts to get weird even for a Mario game. And don't even get me started on Super Mario World, my favorite Mario game, I think you know why...
Great vid! If you’re looking for more funny enemies, Mario Land’s Tokotokos have personally captured my heart. Just look ‘em up, what funny little guys
Love that youtube is recommending smaller channels nowadays like this one. You definitely deserve it! Great humor, great pacing, and an awesome video overall! Excited to see what comes next! (Also, I don’t know what series you play, but a Zelda version of this would be fascinating!)

This is such an interesting idea for a video and it was really intertaining to watch, i'm also a huge a fan of your humor style lol
10:36
I actually do want a 40 min essay on the waddle wing
I think the Fliprus from NSMBU is a pretty funky little guy, they have a whole stage dedicated to them but its the one single stage they appear in and its also one of the super secret world skipping stages that replace cannons in that game. They're like the enemy equivalent of that one cartoon that showed a lot of love and potential but got shoved off to the networks little cousin cause it wasnt immediately pulling in the same viewers as their most popular shows
I love the Fliprus. Definitely my favorite enemy from NSMBU. Glad to see someone else acknowledge them.
Cool vid, loved the style! The jokes are on point really

Great video! Your script was funny and the video itself was very well paced. I hope to see you continue to make more videos in the future
New Super Mario Bros. DS had so many obscure enemies. You forgot to mention that one Boo ghost in that game, it was a very weird-looking Boo, it appears in only one of the haunted houses *(forgot which one)* and it would puff itself up very big making this terrifying noise when you looked at it, and then when you looked away or ran away, it's chase you, making a shuffling noise as it deflates. That thing scared the crap out of me as a kid. It also had rosy cheeks and a very weird shaped mouth, which added to my fear.
6:08 “what was going on with these names?” you shouldve said that after mentioning digga
Love this video! The writing is sooo snappy
Great video! Loved all of the Scott the Woz style gags.
Block-Steppers are great. The little panic they do when you squish one of their buddies is so endearing. Skipsquaks are also pretty cute.
I don’t know if it really counts as an enemy per se if it doesn’t hurt you, but the Grumblump has an S-tier name and is just a weird little guy.
Honestly grumblump is technically an enemy because I mean a lot of people struggle with those tox box look a likes.
Also don’t ever ground pound them unless you want more of a challenge
@@Neon_nerd-852 grumblump ANGERY 😡
If Nintendo continues to restrict the Paper Mario devs from making more weird new enemies, then digging through the archives and bringing back a bunch of the weird one off enemies would be a fairly decent compromise imo. Lots of potential there.
The Mario & Luigi games did this a lot more. For example the bird on the flying carpet from Mario Bros 2 appears in Partners In Time, and the dino enemies who you can squish by jumping on them from Mario World appear in Superstar Saga
I love the obscure Mario enemies. I had the strategy guide for Mario 64 as a kid and I loved looking at all the weird enemies. I’d love to see you take a crack at obscure enemies from other series
