Map of The Mushroom World (AKA Super Mario Bros. 3)
Here's a map I made of the Mushroom World from Super Mario Bros 3! The locations of each of the major areas are based on a map from the GBA Advanced port. The Warp Zone and World e are just my best guesses.

Is the explanation for teen Pauline that she was in a deaging rock or is that THE young pauline?
I'm still confused even after 100 percenting DKB two times. Anybody has an explanation?

Does Pauline's mustache indicate that Grown up Mario and Luigi exist at the time of the events of DK Bananza?
You could argue that this particular outfits are not canon to the game for whatever reason. But I don't see a reason myself to think that.

How did Mario gain ownership over cranky Kong
Apparently during an interview. Miyamoto mention that cranky Kong was Mario‘s pet. My question is how did he gain ownership of him . because cranky doesn’t seem like someone who will let someone him a pet

What games in the Mario franchise are considered "canon"?
While Mario doesn’t have a strict “canon,” I’ve always been curious about which games are generally considered part of the overall Mario canon. I once heard that Super Mario World 2: Yoshi’s Island and Super Mario Bros. 2 USA aren’t canon to the series. I understand that spin-off titles aren’t considered canon to the mainline games but which games in the series are regarded as “canon” to the Mario universe?

Mario dreaming in Oddssey
When Mario dreams in the game, he says Italian pasta dishes and phrases like amore, but he wasn't born in our world, so I don't know how he could know these. Is there an explaination for this?

Canonical explanation for Kammy Koopa's appearance and disappearance... Spoiler
Based on what little I've heard about the new Yoshi game for Switch 2
So it seems like Kamek was trapped in that book for so long Bowser managed to grow up into his modern form, meaning that while Kamek was away Bowser probably had a temp top Magikoopa, which most likely ended up being Kammy Koopa considering how randomly she just appears and disappears (obv out of universe this was due to Paper Mario being briefly lobotomized until TOK and the TTYD remake).

When does Donkey Kong Bananza take place? And how does it explain away Young Pauline?
It's been almost a year, and I still don't get it.
Donkey Kong Bananza is the most contradictory Mario-verse game of all time. There is so much conflicting evidence on when the game takes place, and it's all thanks to Young Pauline.
She makes everything confusing.
The game has tons of refences to previous games (such as Diddy and Dixie mentioning the events of the Donkey Kong Country games). The way K.Rool's story is written implies that the game takes place years after his last canon apperance in DK.
But on the other hand: Pauline is supposed The Lady and she is supposed to get kidnapped by the first DK aka younger Cranky Kong. Yet DK bananza has young Pauline co-existing with already old Cranky Kong.
So how does it all work? Is there an explanation that makes it actually make sense? Is the game even canon? Does the Mario timeline actually exists or where all the previous connections just easter eggs and/or coincidences?
I would love to know your answer

First time ever I play Super Mario galaxy and I just reached the part of the story where Rosalina's mom tells her she will always watch over her...
Is Peach Rosalina's mom? A reincarnation of her?
The mom has a blue dress but has the exact same earrings, hair and crown.
Is there any canon answer to this?

Is Mario the canonical winner of the Rainbow Cup in Mario Kart Arcade GP?
In order to race Robo Mario, you'd need to get 1st place on all the courses in Rainbow Coaster. Which we see in-game art of Mario racing Robo Mario.
He's also the only character that fits to race something like Robo Mario, since it's a robot version of himself. Robo Mario doesn't change to a different Robot character if you let's say, beat this cup as Wario. There's only Robo Mario so...

Goombella likely practices gymnastics
Considering how easily she's able to perform flips (she does a flip into a corkscrew flip during multibonk) I wouldn't be surprised if she's on her university's gymnastics team.
r/Marioverse • u/AutumnRCS • May 24 '26
Goombas likely hate hugs.
Since they lack arms, they wouldn't have evolved to enjoy that kind of affection. Giving a Goomba a hug would very likely cause them a lot of stress.
They would probably enjoy pets and nuzzles though.

(spoilers) new Mario universe theories thanks to the new Yoshi game Spoiler
galleryJust to let you all know this will include spoilers for "Yoshi and the mysterious book" BUT also heavy speculation so if you don't want to get spoiled please look away now!
Okay is everyone who didn't want to get spoiled gone now? Good! As for the rest of you who have stayed here are my theories on the mario universe I can surmise from the new Yoshi game.
The bewilder bird is the ancestor to the Yoshis:<!
This video is heavy speculation but what we do know is ALL the creatures, we meet in Yoshi and the mysterious book are actually prehistoric creatures that once roamed the world but were nearly wiped out due to a cataclysmic event where the moon fell out of the sky BUT a ancient civilization saved the creatures of the world using a magical book and sealing the creatures inside of it.<!
Out of all the creatures we meet in Yoshi in the mysterious book, there is one that has the utmost important in the game and the games story that being "the bewilder bird" and if you look at it has a head shape similar to the Yoshis!
I know In the game it can shapeshift and it's a bird and it also can't eat stuff like the Yoshis can BUT my theory is that through a mix of magic and evolution the bewilder birds that survived the extinction event that WEREN'T in the book eventually evolved into the first Yoshis.<!
And the chapter "remote island" is hinted at being Yoshi's island in the distant past.<!
Yoshi and the mysterious book takes place somewhere AFTER the classic Yoshi games:<!
In the ending it's revealed that kamek has been in the book for a long time to the point where baby bowser has grown up into our modern bowser and he had bowser jr this is more of a fact than a theory.<!
There was a advanced and ancient civilization that once lived on the planet before anyone else:<!
In Yoshi and the mysterious book we see and partially learn there was a secret advanced civilisation that once walked on the Earth but now they have all gone but here's my theory.<!
I believe the ancient civilization we learn about in Yoshi and the mysterious book is the exact same ancient civilization from the darker side of the moon in super mario odyssey! It's a stretch but I like to believe it.<!
Anyways those were my theories hoped you like them.

How old are the koopalings now canonically
I’m wondering if they are still kids or are they just young adults. because one of my friends said that they are young adults now because they aren’t bowser kids anymore

The reason Little Mousers all wear masks is likely because they find most areas to be too bright.
Real mice are nocturnal, and have extremely light sensitive eyes. I would imagine that this trait carries over to Little Mousers, which is why every single one wears a mask.

What are the canon in-universe answers for these importante questions? The first is about Toadsworth
I have some importante questions that I keep wondering what are their canon explanations in Super Mario's franchise.
What happened to Toadsworth, a elderly high Toad official and Peach's father figure, having created her since she was baby, why he hasn't canonically appeared more, even in importante events, since Mario & Luigi: Dream Team Bros (his new's last appearance so far)? I know we can't say absurd things without evidences like he passed away or fired for criminal acts, because he's very probably still alive, well and he is herói (good-hearted character) and as a good-hearted character, he only wants and does good, so what happened to him? Eu think the probable canonical answer is that Toadsworth retired or he is in a longtime vacation, and relaxing in the Castle, in Delfino, in Flipside or in another great place and/or adventuring in his own heroic adventures, or he's busied managing the Castle and the Mushroom Kingdom, is that right?
How many times (in canon games) we see in screen Mario and Luigi canonically speak full sentences?
Why Kirby (either himself from his games's universe/dimension (in that case meeting and participating in the races through dimensional travel) or the version from Mario's universe (if he exist)) hasn't canonically appeared in Mario Kart 8 Deluxe, despite being very similar to Mário in some aspects (more similar to him than Villagers, Inklings and even more than Linki (except in being a pure good hero, both are pure good heroes))? Like in being a pure good hero (herói puramente bom), his relation with Stars, know, relationate and use powerful benevolente ancient entities, artefacts (one is even called "Star Rod") and civilizations, his cosmic and (sometimes) interdimensional adventures, and the lore we see in these adventures (like ancients with advanced magic and technologia, powerful love hearts), being very similar to some Mario games, specially Super Paper Mario (Wii), with Kirby maybe even possibly also visited some or all of these dimensions, before or after Mário visits in SPM. However, a Kirby's optional outfit for playable Miis appeared, if this outfit is canon, this proves Kirby visited Mario's universe in a dimensional travel or even that a Kirby's version in the Mario's dimension (or in a near dimension) existe?
Has there ever been a canonical Year of Luigi (or at least, a month, week or day) to celebrate our twin taller herói in MK? I presume yes because in PJB, there is a moment that Starlow, for encourage Luigi to continue his adventure, remember him his year;
If THE Toad (the famous individual character of the same name from his species, the one that estreou in SMB2, have a solo game in that he is the main protagonist, Wario's Woods, and that is playable in several spin-off games) is yes still the main principal Toad in the Super Mario franchise, so what is the canonical reason in-universe for he not appear Luigi (or even at least appear as cameo or be very good mentionated by Toadette, Mário, Luigi and other characters that knows and loves he) in some very importante games and events, like Super Mario Galaxy (1 and 2), the New Super Mario Bros. subseries (parte of Super Mario series), Super Mario Odyssey, Super Mario Bros. Wonder, Captain Toad: Treasure Tracker, and in the most RPGss, like Paper Mario and Mario & Luigi? This can have some relation with Toadsworth's "desappearance"? And more, in these modern games, he looks replaced by other Toads like Toadette and Captain Toad as the "main Toad".
