!gaming is a community for gaming noobs through gaming aficionados. Unlike !games, we don’t take ourselves quite as serious. Shitposts and memes are welcome.

Our Rules:

1. Keep it civil.


Attack the argument, not the person. No racism/sexism/bigotry. Good faith argumentation only.


2. No sexism, racism, homophobia, transphobia or any other flavor of bigotry.


I should not need to explain this one.


3. No bots, spam or self-promotion.


Only approved bots, which follow the guidelines for bots set by the instance, are allowed.


4. Try not to repost anything posted within the past month.


Beyond that, go for it. Not everyone is on every site all the time.

And furthermore the enemies and several other elements from SMB2 appear throughout the Mario universe to this day. Shyguy, anyone?

And the character select mechanic was revived in recent Mario games (New SMB, 3D World, Wonder), including each character having a unique trait.

And Birdo. Mamu on the other hand ended up in Zelda.

Which makes more sense than you'd think, since Link's Awakening takes place in a world dreamed by the Wind Fish and Wart was from Subcon, a land of dreams.

They should have brought him back in Phantom Hourglass

Bob-Ombs and Pokeys as well.

Does that damn mask appear in other games? It always gave me the creeps back when I was smaller, like the angry sun in SMB3
