When the DVD comes out, I'll buy it for you!"

| ====digibutter.nerr====
| |
| '''digibutter.nerr''' (incorrectly capitalized as "Digibutter.nerr" once) is a website mentioned by [[Francis]] in ''[[Super Paper Mario]]'', who visits the site often. It is apparently a forum filled with geeks and nerds of all sorts who seem to love butterflies. Francis declares that he shall take "hi-technicaaaal" pictures of [[Tippi]], whom he calls Francine, and post them all over the forum. After he creates [[Tiptron]], Francis mentions how Tiptron earned him the "Elite Nerr" status on digibutter.nerr's forums.
| |
| | |
| Its name comes from '''digi'''tal '''butter'''flies, which many of the forum members seem to enjoy. Its .nerr top-level domain seems to be derived from Francis's quirk of constantly saying "nerr,".
| |
| | |
| Shortly after release of the ''Super Paper Mario'', a [http://digibutter.nerr.biz/ fan-made forum] named after it was created, primarily focusing on discussion of the game. The forum is still up and active as of 2025.

| ====''Duel of 100: The Home Edition''====
| |
| '''''[[Duel of 100]]: The Home Edition''''' is a video game from ''[[Super Paper Mario]]'', popular in [[Sammer's Kingdom]]. The game is only mentioned once, during [[Tippi]] and [[Tiptron]]'s tattle information about [[List of Sammer Guys|Phanto Grin]], the 63rd [[Sammer Guy]], who likes to play as himself a lot.
| |
| | |
| In the Japanese version, no such game was implied, but the tattle instead says that he beat [[King Sammer]] when they were playing a game with a special skill called 『64れんしゃ』 ''Rokujūyon Rensha'', which translates to "64-time rapid shooting", likely a parody on rapid button mashing in certain games.
| |
| | |
| ====''Hagtime Mystery Hour''====
| |
| The '''''Hagtime Mystery Hour''''' is a TV series that airs on Undervision, [[The Underwhere]]'s equivalent to television, which [[Hagitha]] is a fan of. She had set a recording of an upcoming episode, and tasked a [[D-Man]] with watching over it to make sure an extra game of boneball (The Underwhere's apparent equivalent to baseball) would not delay it. To confirm her doubts, she sends the heroes on an optional side quest to ask the D-Man about the game.

|
| ====''Starship X-Naut''==== | | ==Super Ultra Goomba Bros.== |
| '''''Starship [[X-Naut]]''''' is a huge franchise that seemingly revolves around a television program mentioned in ''[[Super Paper Mario]]''. It is brought up many times in [[Fort Francis]], although it is never mentioned elsewhere. Francis's obsession with it is likely a parody of how sci-fi shows such as ''{{wp|Star Trek}}'' are highly popular with "nerdy" people. | | '''''Super Ultra Goomba Bros.''''' is an old TV show that [[Mimi]] likes to watch reruns of. This TV series is mentioned during the game ''[[Super Paper Mario]]'', and nothing more than the title is revealed. The show's name may be a reference to ''[[Wikipedia: Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles|Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles]]''. |
|
| |
|
| As stated above, the main aspect of ''Starship X-Naut'' is thought to be its television show, which is mentioned early in Fort Francis by a [[Meowmaid]] who stated that a baseball game in extra innings had delayed that day's episode of the show (and that she had changed the times set in the [[RecordoMeow]]s to reflect the delay), which is one of [[Francis]]'s many obsessions. In the same room, another Meowmaid mentions ''Starship X-Naut: Space Bloops'', a seemingly [[Blooper]]-oriented video game spin-off of the show known to be a space-combat simulator. Both of the [[SecuriMeow]]s' quizzes (which are given to [[Mario]] and friends to gain access into Francis' private rooms) also mention ''Starship X-Naut'', one of which revealing that it includes a comic series (whose comics Francis believes should never be taken out of their plastic sleeves) and the other mentioning ''Starship X-Naut'' "Series 3 collectible action figures", which Francis himself does not own to the greatest extent (although completing his collection of the figures is one of his many goals). Finally, Francis' unnamed, cat-like door's compatibility quiz to [[Princess Peach]] suggests that Francis is attracted to (or at least can relate to) people who have lost friends due to arguments based on the propulsion system of a spaceship featured on ''Starship X-Naut''. Two optional references to ''Starship X-Naut'' can additionally be triggered by telling [[Mimi]] (disguised as [[Merlee]] during a [[Castle Bleck]] encounter) that Mario fears Francis (which would then result in Francis appearing and stating that, before his strange warp to the dark [[castle]], he was watching ''Starship X-Naut'' in his [[Reclinatron 4500]]) and buying [[Tiptron]] from Francis after beating the game (at which Francis would state that he was willing to sell Tiptron for he was saving up for a rare comic book known only as ''Starship X-Naut Issue One'', which cost at least 999 [[Coin]]s).
| | ==The Blubbening== |
| | '''''The Blubbening''''' is a TV show that [[Francis]] watches. It is mentioned in ''[[Super Paper Mario]]''. It is known that this show's main character is [[Tubba Blubba]] and that this show is an anime. Francis especially likes the episode when Tubba Blubba battled a horde of robots. Not much is known about it, except for Francis' opinion that it got worse as the show progressed. |
|
| |
|
| In the Japanese version however, there doesn't seem to be any implied TV show that was mentioned multiple times in Fort Francis.
| | ==The Grodus Chronicles== |
| | '''''The Grodus Chronicles''''' is a TV show starring [[Grodus]]. It is aired in [[The Bitlands]] and possibly the [[Mushroom World]] and all the other areas around [[Flipside]]. It is unknown what the show is about and what the story is. ''The Grodus Chronicles'' is based on a novel of the same name by [[Garamond|a writer]] from [[Flopside]]. ''The Grodus Chronicle'''s name is simply a manipulation of the novels and film entitled ''[[Wikipedia:The Martian Chronicles|The Martian Chronicles]]'' by Ray Bradbury. |

| ====''Super Ultra Goomba Bros.''==== | | ==The Mushroom Moon== |
| '''''Super Ultra [[Goomba]] Bros.''''' is an old TV show that [[Mimi]] likes to watch reruns of. This TV series is mentioned in ''[[Super Paper Mario]]''. It is a reference to the ''[[Super Mario Bros.]]'' game and a possible reference to [[The Goomba Bros.]] fighting team in the [[Glitz Pit]] in ''[[Paper Mario: The Thousand-Year Door]]''. | | '''''The Mushroom Moon''''' is advertised in ''[[Mario Kart Wii]]'' on the [[Moonview Highway]] course. Not much is known about it, except it involves Peach, Mario and obviously, [[The Moon]]. What it is is also unknown, but it is probably a musical. |
|
| |
|
| ====''The Blubbening''==== | | ==The Toad Warrior== |
| '''''The Blubbening''''' is a TV show that [[Francis]] watches in ''[[Super Paper Mario]]'', and it is his favorite show. The main character is [[Tubba Blubba]], and this show ran for at least three seasons. It also involves a princess and robots. There is also a box set of this show, and the pre-order bonus of the box set is a costume. [[Francis]] believes the first season has better writing and voice acting than the later seasons of the show, and everything after the dream sequence is horrible. In the Japanese version, he instead mentions ''Pink Princess'' with similar comments. | | '''''The Toad Warrior''''' is a film mentioned in ''[[Paper Mario: The Thousand-Year Door]]'' in [[Zip Toad]]'s E-mail. Not much is known about this film besides the fact that Zip Toad has a line in the film: ''Hey, you are cool, but I am even cooler''. |

Predating ''Paper Mario: The Thousand-Year Door'' was another ''[[Mario (series)|Mario]]''-related reference to ''The Road Warrior'': a similarly-named episode of ''[[The Super Mario Bros. Super Show!]]'' is entitled "[[Toad Warriors]]". |
| '''''The Flictionarian''''' is a book mentioned in ''[[Super Paper Mario]]''. It was written by the late [[Queen Croacus II]], the second ruler of the [[Flora Kingdom]]. The book is a compilation of the [[Floro Sapien]] prehistory. | |

| ====''The Book of Spares''====
| |
| '''''The Book of Spares''''' is a book mentioned by the Toad at [[Outlook Point]] in ''[[Paper Mario: Sticker Star]]''. He quotes bowling advice from chapter 12, section 8: "Deep within [[the Bafflewood]], hidden from prying eyes, sleeps [[Bowling Ball (Thing)|a sacred orb of deep, lustrous black]]. But the path to its secret nook is blocked by a magical barrier known as a fence--a device so ingenious, it can only be broken by the throes of [[Wiggler Segment|a child]]."
