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]]''.

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 Mario series.
Cowpocalypse
Cowpocalypse is a running anime in the Mario universe that Francis may talk about.
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!"
Cutie-Pie Video Game
In Super Paper Mario, Mimi creates a video game about cute boys to raise funds for her cutie-pie stable.
Cyborg Wart
Cyborg Wart is a comic book mentioned in Super Paper Mario. Francis owns some issues of this comic book, though his collection of them seemingly is not complete as he longs for more. The main character of the comic is Wart, the final boss of Super Mario Bros. 2, who has not directly appeared in a Mario game in years. Not much is known about this comic book, as it is only given two mentions; however, it is revealed that at least forty-seven issues have been released so far, and it is currently ongoing in publication.
Diamond City Symphony
The Diamond City Symphony was mentioned in the description of the souvenir Taxi Sonata, where it was stated that they recorded the song.
digibutter.nerr
digibutter.nerr is a website full of other nerds like Francis, 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 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 Digibutter.nerr.
Trivia
- When selling Tiptron to Mario and friends, Francis incorrectly capitalizes the "d" in "digibutter.nerr."
- Shortly after release of the game, a real forum was created, where mostly discussion of Super Paper Mario is made. They also hold an online, Super Paper Mario related, superbowl tournament known as the Sammerbowl.
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 a Sammer Guy who likes to play as himself a lot.
Feared Fungi Fighter
Feared Fungi Fighter is a book mentioned by a Toad in the library of Princess Peach's Castle in Mario & Luigi: Partners in Time. According to the Toad, it states that the heroes can jump on enemies to damage them at the start of the battle, with the exception of spiked enemies (which would cause the hero to lose HP).
Fungicide: The Epic Battle for the Mushroom Kingdom
Fungicide: The Epic Battle for the Mushroom Kingdom is a book mentioned by a Toad in Princess Peach's Castle near the end of Mario & Luigi: Partners in Time. The book was written by Kylie Koopa and recounted the Shroob invasion. 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.
Golden Oldies Station
The Golden Oldies Station is a radio station that can be heard in Koopa Village. This station plays the Super Mario World ending theme.
Happy Gardeners Monthly
Happy Gardeners Monthly is a magazine mentioned by a Toad in Super Mario RPG: Legend of the Seven Stars. When Mario brings a seed and some fertilizer, he gets very excited, saying his buddies over at the HQ of this magazine will be thrilled and that he himself might even be in the next issue.
Harder Than Bedrawk: The Rawk Hawk Story
Harder Than Bedrawk: The Rawk Hawk Story is apparently a DVD starring the wrestler Rawk Hawk. Francis wants a copy of it.
Hot Hits Station
The Hot Hits Station is a radio station that can be heard in Koopa Village. An instrumental version of the Melody sung by Pop Diva Chanterelle can be heard on this station. It can be tuned to only after Chanterelle's side quest is completed. Its name implies this station plays hit songs.
How Much is That Doggie in the Window?
"How Much is That Doggie in the Window?" is a 1950s novelty song mentioned by Frogfucius in the Super Mario RPG: Legend of the Seven Stars Nintendo Player's Guide.[1]The song is an example of the type of music Frogfucius listened to as a tadpole. "How Much is That Doggie in the Window?" is also, in Frogfucius' opinion, an example of "real music," as opposed to the "nonsense" created by contemporary bands.
Ice Rose
Ice Rose is a book of poems written by the late King Croacus III, the third ruler of the Floro Sapien kingdom. The book was written in his 37th year of life.

The Nintendo News
In the Game Boy Advance game Wario Land 4, the opening cut-scene shows a newspaper with an article on Legendary Treasure being discovered in an Ancient Pyramid. The newspaper's name is The Nintendo News, as seen across the top of the screenshot.

Starship X-Naut
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.
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 videogame 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).
Super Ultra Goomba Bros.
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. 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
The Blubbening is a TV show that Francis watches, in Super Paper Mario, and it is Francis' 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.
