'''''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]]/[[Tiptron]]'s tattle information about a [[Sammer Guy]] who likes to play as himself a lot. The title could be a reference to [http://www.wikipedia.org Extreme Makeover, Home Edition], a real-life TV show, as well as [http://www.wikipedia.org 300 (film)]. This, seeing the information of the Sammer Guy, might also be a reference to the game [http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Kirby_Super_Star_Ultra#Remake Kirby Superstar Ultra], where the mode '<i>Helper to Hero</i>' was selectable. It was a game mode, when playing as one of the helpers of Kirby.
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.

'''''Kirby Story''''' is a movie advertised in the [[Yoshi Theater]] in ''[[Mario & Luigi: Superstar Saga]]''. Absolutely nothing is known about the movie, although one can assume that it stars [[Kirby]]. However, this is debatable - there is no indication that the Kirby in question is the same as Nintendo's Kirby. It could be an entirely different Kirby who looks the same, or the "A Kirby Story" could mean it was written by Kirby and he does not actually appear in the work, instead just appearing on the poster for publicity. While saying "one can assume that it stars Kirby" is understandable, to actually assume so would be foolhardy to actually do in this context as Mario and co. have never watched A Kirby Story and there is no canonical proof that it is about Kirby.

Notes about the item are that it is signed by the voice actress for the princess and the director, and that it has a layer over it to keep it from fading. Peach will return the poster if she doesn't like it. She will still return it if she does like it, as Francis suggests to her that he give it some backing board.

==Sing Along Uncle Swampy Show==
==''Sammer Guy Monthly''==
'''''The Sing Along With Uncle Swampy Show''''' is a TV show in the ''[[Donkey Kong Country (television series)|Donkey Kong Country]]'' TV series. The name implies that it is a sing-along show, and is meant to be watched by young children. [[Krusha (character)|Krusha]] has been stated to be a fan of the show.
'''''Sammer Guy Monthly''''' is a magazine mentioned in ''[[Super Paper Mario]]''. In [[List of Sammer Guys#Sensei Ruff Puff|Sensei Ruff Puff]]'s [[Tattle]], it is said that he was once a cover model for ''Sammer Guy Monthly''.


==Starship X-Naut==
==''Sing Along With Uncle Swampy Show''==
'''''Starship X-Naut''''' is a huge franchise of what would appear to revolve around a television program mentioned in ''[[Super Paper Mario]]''. It is brought up many times in [[Fort Francis]], although it is never mentioned outside of that area.
'''''The Sing Along With Uncle Swampy Show''''' is a TV show in the ''[[Donkey Kong Country (television series)|Donkey Kong Country]]'' TV series. [[Krusha]] has been stated to be a fan of the show.


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 videogame 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).
==Smithy's books==
[[Smithy]] has several books about himself that are quoted in his various descriptions in the [[Monster List]] in ''[[Super Mario RPG (Nintendo Switch)|Super Mario RPG]]'' for [[Nintendo Switch]]. These include two quote books (''The Quotable Smithy'' and ''The Words and Wisdom of Smithy''), two biographies (''The Man Called Smithy'' and ''Learn from a Tyrant's Mistakes!''), a {{wp|magical girl|magical boy}} manga (''Magical Boy Smithy! ☆''), and a self-help book (''Smithy's One Simple Secret'').


As these are the only mentions of ''Starship X-Naut'', much about the show is left to assumption. Based on its name, it is thought that ''Starship X-Naut'' stars (or prominently features) the [[Secret Society of the X-Nauts]], the antagonists of ''[[Paper Mario: The Thousand-Year Door]]''. (It is also undoubted that the show's name is a reference to ''Paper Mario: The Thousand-Year Door'' on [[Nintendo]]'s part.) It is unknown if ''Starship X-Naut'' has any affiliation with ''[[The Grodus Chronicles]]'', another unseen ''Super Paper Mario'' show that is named similarly in that it holds [[Sir Grodus|another major ''Paper Mario: The Thousand-Year Door'' foe]] as its namesake, although it is likely that it does not.
==''Spit-Bucket Boy''==
'''''Spit-Bucket Boy''''' is a movie franchise mentioned in the [[Rayman in the Phantom Show]] DLC in ''[[Mario + Rabbids Sparks of Hope]]''. Two movies had already been released which [[Rabbid Mario]] states he found hilarious, while filming for the third movie takes place in the Spark Quest [[Boxing Ring]] with a [[Rabbid]] having to take a hit from a [[Magnafowl]] in a boxing ring.


==Super Ultra Goomba Bros.==
==''Starship X-Naut''==
'''''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]]''. It's also an obvious reference to the ''[[Super Mario Bros.]]'' game, or possibly ''[[The Super Mario Bros. Super Show]]''.
'''''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.


==The Blubbening==
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.

'''''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.
*As part of Francis's above-mentioned opinion, he says that Season 1 has better voice acting than the later seasons. This could be a reference to the anime [[wikipedia: Dragonball Z|Dragonball Z]], as in the original dub, the first two sagas (out of 16) were dubbed by Ocean, and some fans think that Ocean does better voice-acting than FUNimation, the dubbing company that took over in the third saga.


==The Flictionarian==
In the Japanese version however, there doesn't seem to be any implied TV show that was mentioned multiple times in Fort Francis.
'''''The Flictionarian''''' was a book 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 Grodus Chronicles==
==''Scrambled Eggs and Hamlet''==
'''''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.
'''''Scrambled Eggs and Hamlet''''' is a play that Flurrie performed in. A female Toad in west Rogueport mentions this play, saying that she loved it and that she has seen it ten times. The title of the play is a reference to Shakespeare's play ''{{wp|Hamlet}}'' and to {{wp|Dr. Seuss}}' book ''{{wp|Green Eggs and Ham}}''.


==The Mushroom Moon==
==''Super Ultra Goomba Bros.''==
'''''The Mushroom Moon''''' is a musical advertised in ''[[Mario Kart Wii]]'' on the [[Moonview Highway]] course. Not much is known about it, except it involves Peach, Yoshi, Mario, and obviously, [[The Moon]]. It probably involves [[Petey Piranha]], who is seen climbing a building behind Peach, as well. It can be seen in theatres from March 21st until May 27th.
'''''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 Toad Warrior==
==''The Blubbening''==
'''''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''.
'''''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.


This movie seems to be a nod to the [[Earth|Real Life]] film ''[[Wikipedia:Mad Max 2: The Road Warrior|Mad Max 2: The Road Warrior]]'', known simply as ''The Road Warrior'' in the United States. 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]]".

'''''Wario''''' is a fictional film advertised for (with a movie poster) at the [[Yoshi Theater]] in ''[[Mario & Luigi: Superstar Saga]]''. It presumably involves [[WarioWare]], as the flier depicts nothing but [[Wario]]'s eyes, nose, and mustache - an icon that often appears in the games. The picture closely resembles the Japanese box art of ''[[WarioWare, Inc.: Mega Microgame$!]]'', so it might involve the plot of that game.

The list of implied entertainment is a list of games, television shows, and books that have not physically appeared in any form of media up to this point in time. Regardless of their lack of appearance, the implied entertainment have been mentioned at least once throughout the Super Mario franchise, many of which are from Super Paper Mario.

A Mid-Winter Day's Nap[edit]

A Mid-Winter Day's Nap is a play that Flurrie performed in. A female Toad in west Rogueport mentions this play, saying she loved it and has seen it three times. The title of the play is a reference to William Shakespeare's play A Midsummer Night's Dream.

The Book of Spares[edit]

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 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 a child." This serves as a hint to the location of the Bowling Ball Thing and the Wiggler Segment in the area.

The Boy Who Cried Woo[edit]

The Boy Who Cried Woo is a play that Flurrie performed in. A female Toad in west Rogueport mentions this play, saying she loved it and has seen it a hundred times. The title of the play is a reference to the fable The Boy Who Cried Wolf.

Cowpocalypse is a running anime in the Super Mario universe that Francis may talk about in Super Paper Mario.

At Fort Francis, in the dialogue between Princess Peach and Francis, when he gives Peach a "Pink Princess" signed poster as a token of his affection, Peach has the dialogue option "I appreciate the thought..." When that option is selected, Peach will say, "I don't have time for that! The universe is being destroyed!" Francis will answer "Destroyed...? Oh I get it! You're so funny! You're talking about that farm anime, 'Cowpocalypse'! I'm hooked on it too! Different farming factions vying for control of a sword that can destroy the world? They use real swordsmen to advise the action scenes, so they're super realistic! Don't you love it when studios pay attention to important stuff like that?... When the DVD comes out, I'll buy it for you!"

The main character of the comic is Wart, the final boss of Super Mario Bros. 2, who has not directly appeared in a Super Mario game in years.

After he creates Tiptron, Francis mentions how Tiptron earned him the "Elite Nerr" status on digibutter.nerr's forums.

Its name comes from digital butterflies, 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," an impediment he may share with other members of the website.

Trivia[edit]

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.

Mario, Luigi and their baby selves were apparently curious about how the book ended (most likely wondering if they had beaten the Shroobs), but the Toad scolded them for trying to find out without reading it themselves. The Toad then confessed that the last page had been torn out, so he couldn't tell how the book ended anyway.

Spit-Bucket Boy is a movie franchise mentioned in the Rayman in the Phantom Show DLC in Mario + Rabbids Sparks of Hope. Two movies had already been released which Rabbid Mario states he found hilarious, while filming for the third movie takes place in the Spark Quest Boxing Ring with a Rabbid having to take a hit from a Magnafowl in a boxing ring.

Starship X-Naut[edit]

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 Star Trek are highly popular with "nerdy" people.

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 RecordoMeows 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 SecuriMeows' 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 Coins).

In the Japanese version however, there doesn't seem to be any implied TV show that was mentioned multiple times in Fort Francis.

Scrambled Eggs and Hamlet[edit]

Scrambled Eggs and Hamlet is a play that Flurrie performed in. A female Toad in west Rogueport mentions this play, saying that she loved it and that she has seen it ten times. The title of the play is a reference to Shakespeare's play Hamlet and to Dr. Seuss' book Green Eggs and Ham.

Super Ultra Goomba Bros.[edit]

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 Blubbening[edit]

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.
