My Sandbox Page: User:Sparks/Sandbox
Hi, everyone! Mason is my actual name, and I’ve joined the Super Mario Wiki mainly to help out with Mario + Rabbids Sparks of Hope! I’m a huge fan. I've been here since November 21, 2022. I changed my username to Sparks because I’ve been helping out so much with the articles of said game. I pretty much created all of the battles, quests, items, and lots of other stuff for the game... you're welcome! It's also because I was using my actual name as my username (which is weird and I'm kinda embarrassed by it), and everyone else has such cool names. Thanks to Shokora, I was able to get my new name approved as of May 23, 2023.
When I'm bored, I like to just check the wiki and look around, but whenever I play a Mario game for days in a row I don't tend to be active while I do so... so just remember that if you don't see my name on the "Who's online" list. I also have a Mario Boards account (created on January 3, 2024), under the name SparksMarioWiki (because Sparks was already taken)! I also have a Discord account! I created it on May 25, 2024.
As of May 17, 2024, I'm a patroller! I should check MarioWiki:Warning policy for how to handle different situations and when to warn/block users. I should also check this page to know which reminders to hand out.

Other things
I was really bad at adding images back then. Over to the right you can see the comparisons of images I added to the wiki when I first joined to the present. As you can see, the “A Truly Ginormous Goomba” screenshot on the left side looks terrible. I took screenshots of people playing the game on YouTube, and I did not edit the images at all.
EDIT: Recently I fixed many images I uploaded early on when I first joined the Mario Wiki. One of those images is the "A Truly Ginormous Goomba" image. I was still bad at adding images back then though.
In the middle is an image of Allegra, which is a million times better. After I learned how to crop images, the overall quality of new images I uploaded improved so, so much. What I did for Allegra was take a screenshot of her and crop the image to only show her.
As of October 11, 2023, I'm beginning to add in GIF images! On the right side is a gif image of Edge activating her Stormblade Technique. This is footage of me playing Mario + Rabbids Sparks of Hope, and I converted it into a GIF! I wonder what else I could do?
As of December 27, 2023, I have begun adding in .wav files! The first one I added was the first phase of the Castle Bowser fight in Super Mario Bros. Wonder. It's a good song, so I went ahead and added it in. You can turn on the music if you want - it's over there on the left side. Hooray for audio files!
All major Mario + Rabbids Sparks of Hope articles finished on April 13, 2023.
All DLC Mario + Rabbids Sparks of Hope articles finished on September 15, 2023.
Yes I have seen The Super Mario Bros. Movie, three days after it released. The theater was packed!
I have earned the amazing achievement of getting an Article to Featured Status! That article is Edge from Mario + Rabbids Sparks of Hope, whose nomination coincidentally succeeded on October 20, 2023, exactly 1 year after the release of the game!
If there's ever a third Mario + Rabbids game, you bet I'll be there to help out!
Oh and also I helped create lots of course articles for Super Mario Bros. Wonder. I had a whole thread on the Mario Boards dedicated to getting them done!
Mario games I have played (Not counting Super Smash Bros.)
Nintendo Entertainment System games:
I have played this game, but I haven't completed it. It's good.
I played it, but didn't beat it. An interesting Mario game for sure.
I played it, but didn't complete it. I like this game too!
Super Nintendo Entertainment System games:
NONE
Nintendo 64 games:
I played this game on the Wii U, but I didn't get far. The controls are pretty bad...
I digitally have this game on the Wii U and have completed it. It's a good thing I got it before the Nintendo eShop closed right? Great game too!
GameCube games (I don't have a GameCube, so these games were played on the Wii):
Beat the story. I'm not a fan of this game unfortunately. Too many bad minigames is one reason.
Beat the story and unlocked all minigames. Better than Mario Party 4, but the AI is really weird in this game.
Nintendo DS games:
I completed it on my Wii U. It's the weakest of the Mario & Luigi games, but it's not bad.
Beat it. MEMORIES! I especially love the minigames! I wish I still had the game though...
Beat it and unlocked all minigames. I have memories back in 2013 when I got this fun game!
Wii games:
Unlocked all microgames. My first WarioWare game, but the controls are not responsive and bad. It didn't help that I played in a small room...
I played and beat it. The game is OK, but the gameplay (and guess what: padding!) brings it down.
100% it. My favorite Mario Party game! I think this game is very underrated.
100% it (including the Grand Finale Galaxy!). Just a groundbreaking game and my favorite mainline Mario game.
I played this game a long time ago. I don't remember much of it to be honest.
100% it. I have a lot of memories of this game.
100% it. I don't have the GameCube version, but this game is just bananas (pun intended)! I like this game.
100% it. It does what Super Mario Galaxy has done and expands further with its amazing ideas. It only took me three tries to clear "The Perfect Run" (yes, really).
100% the main mode. My very first Donkey Kong Country game. I like it! I also have the Nintendo 3DS version, but I prefer the Wii version.
Beat the game and bought everything. My first Mario Party game, but this game did kinda ruin the series.
Nintendo 3DS games:
I beat it, but I'm unsure if I 100% the game. I have so many memories of this amazing game!
Beat it and the Star World. It's been a while since I've played this game, but I did enjoy it very much. Also "Boohemoth is an abomination" - Anonymous user, December 30, 2022
Beat the game and found all HP-up Hearts. My first Paper Mario game, so I have memories of it. I find the game OK because of these memories. I know others hate this game.
Beat the game, got all ScareScraper ghosts and collected all gems. My first Luigi's Mansion game, and thus I have the most memories playing this game back in 2013. My favorite in the series!
Beat the game, got all beans, all Expert Challenges, and cleared all Battle Ring contestants. My first (and favorite!) Mario & Luigi game! Memories...
Beat the story. I like this game and find it underrated. At least we're not all in a car this time!
I beat the game. There's not much to say here honestly other than it was my first Yoshi's Island game.
I only beat the Mario version. I found this game very hard but I did beat it! I hope others didn't forget about it.
100% the game (All ? Blocks, Paper Toads, Item Patches, Beans, Expert Challenges, Battle Cards, and all S ranks in the Battle Ring, Papercraft Battle Ring and Attackathon). I think this game is underrated.
100% both the main game and Minion Quest. I had the original on the Wii U, but this remake improves upon the original in all ways. I also like the Minion Quest mode too!
Unlocked all microgames and played all extra modes. I find this game very fun! I liked it much more than WarioWare: Smooth Moves.
I beat it. I don't have the GameCube version, but honestly this is a very mediocre game. Luigi gets scared at EVERY SINGLE GHOST that appears, there are design flaws and the Boos are just there to pad out an already short game. The sequels were way better.
I beat both modes. I have the original, and honestly it was better. Bowser Jr.'s Journey had too much grinding and very annoying gameplay unfortunately.
Wii U games:
Played and beat it. I haven't played this game in a while. I do remember enjoying it though.
100% the game. I don't have the Nintendo Switch version, but this game is super fun and offers a great challenge. I also like it more than Donkey Kong Country Returns.
Played through all modes and unlocked a bunch of stuff. It's very similar to Mario Party 9, but with some unique twists of its own. Bowser Party, anyone?
I had this game, but I didn't play much of it and it's gone now.
Got all yarn, flowers and saved all Yoshis. I find it much better than Yoshi's New Island.
Played and beat it. It was not very good.
Nintendo Switch games:
I had the original game, but this is so much better. No I don't have the Booster Course DLC but this is a pretty fantastic game by itself.
100% it and the DLC (except co-op challenges). My first Nintendo Switch game and the start of a series nobody was expecting! Fantastic game in general!
I played and beat this game, but I didn't get all 999 Power Moons. Once again another amazing game.
I played this game back in December 2018 but never finished the story mode. In June 2022 I randomly decided to start over and I actually did complete the story. OK game.
100% the game (including that very hard Mummy Maze level). I used to have the original, but the disc no longer works. Fun puzzles for the puzzle solver in all of us!
100% it. Very fun game to play (Just don't cause it to ruin your friendships)!
I played and beat the story. That's as far as I got.
100% (except the Scarescraper). It's very fun and the game is great!
100% it. I enjoyed the game! Massive improvement from the previous two games.
100% it. I have the original, but obviously this is better. I love both games here, although I HATE the 100% requirements for 3D World. I mean seriously? Completing all stages as every single character?
100% it and the DLC. It was the game that made me join the Mario Wiki! Words cannot describe how awesome this game is!
I played the original a LONG time ago and I beat it. I beat the main game and plenty of side content. This was good. I also beat Culex 3D!
100% the game. It's a dazzling adventure starring Princess Peach! I loved it!
100% the game! I have the original but this remake is superior. A very great game that I enjoyed playing through!
PONIES!!
Trixie Lulamoon
An image of Trixie Lulamoon (The Great and Powerful Trixie) from My Little Pony: Friendship Is Magic. Yes I'm a brony and love watching the show since May 2022. Trixie is one of my favorite characters and is one of my Personal images for my user page. Expect more ponies as I make more progress on the Rayman in the Phantom Show DLC articles!
Okay, I've just realized that this Trixie image is not a PNG image. I'll make sure that the upcoming ones will be. - September 4, 2023
EDIT: NOW it's PNG! All thanks to Mario for deleting the old image! - November 26, 2023
Sweetie Belle
An image of my favorite of the Cutie Mark Crusaders, Sweetie Belle! I gave myself this image of Sweetie Belle for my user page because I have just finished completing all of the Quests for Rayman in the Phantom Show. Progress!
She just looks so adorable right? This is perfect for My Little Pony fans, as well as any children who somehow find my user page. I'm saving my favorite character for after every article of the DLC is finished. Stay tuned for that! - September 8, 2023
Twilight Sparkle
Well, I've done it. I've finished every DLC article for Mario + Rabbids Sparks of Hope, including a Technique article that was never created. The reward I gave myself for completing all of the articles is my favorite Pony, Twilight Sparkle!
Voiced by THE Tara Strong, she was a unicorn before becoming an alicorn. She later became the ruler of Equestria! She is the younger sister of Shining Armor, sister-in-law of Princess Cadence and aunt of Flurry Heart. This image is of her while she was an alicorn.
This is a special moment for me as well as the Mario Wiki. I've joined the Wiki back in November 2022 to help with Mario + Rabbids Sparks of Hope, and I've accomplished the magnificent feat of completing all of the articles for the game! I would safely say that the articles for the game would never have been completed if I had not joined the Mario Wiki. - September 15, 2023
Cozy Glow
- “ARE. YOU. KIDDING ME?!?!”
- —Cozy Glow, My Little Pony:Friendship Is Magic
As my final Personal Image, I have made it Cozy Glow. Don't be fooled by her innocent appearance - she is a villain at heart! But she is so young! Why is she evil? She still is awesome though!
I wish that she could have been redeemed. It is too harsh for her to become petrified with Queen Chrysalis and Tirek. Like I said before, she is young! And perhaps she may have caused my talk page to become vulnerable to Wario... - January 9, 2024
Mario & Luigi: Equestria of Magic
Amazing artwork for a fictional game named Mario & Luigi: Equestria of Magic. Based on this art, the game would feature Mario and Luigi who would team up with the Mane 6 and Spike. The Cutie Mark Crusaders seem to be the "+" game mode here. This was made by RabbitBordom on Reddit. Check out the Reddit page yourself! I uploaded this image to the wiki to celebrate 2024. I also uploaded it precisely on midnight on January 1!
My Little Pony: The Movie review
For the 203rd issue of The 'Shroom, I wrote a review for My Little Pony: The Movie! I had a lot of fun writing it and it was my first ever 'Shroom contribution! I might submit more applications in the future! Go check it out! I mean, if you want to. I'm not forcing you or anything.

Silliness and humor
Jump! Jump! Jump! audio
Activate this audio file before you continue reading. It's Jump! Jump! Jump! from Super Mario Bros. Wonder! I originally had Piranha Plants on Parade audio on here, but only because Jump! Jump! Jump!'s audio file wasn't working before. Now it is!
Midnite concept art sketches
Below is a collection of concept art sketches of Midnite from Mario + Rabbids Sparks of Hope, enlarged to take up the entirety of your screen. These are... interesting to say the least. It looks like they had a lot of ideas for her.
And YOU gotta help us!
Over to the right side is one of the greatest moments in Mario history: Luigi breaking the fourth wall to tell the player to help him and Mario! If only someone could upload the GIF image or provide an audio file. Maybe someone already did and I'm unaware of it. Hotel Mario is something, that's for sure.
"Boohemoth is an abomination"
I will now tell you a story. Back in probably early January 2023 I was on the Mario Wiki (back when I was new and was not as good at editing as I am currently) and I found a hilarious vandalism edit on Boohemoth. Apparently an anonymous user has deleted most of the opening paragraph and replaced it with "Boohemoth is an abomination". Somethingone dealt with this vandalism with a summary that reads "See, you say that but reverting edits to last revision before vandalism". I found these edits hysterical and lets you know that new things happen on the Mario Wiki every day.
Comparing Rabbid Luigi and Luigi
Poor Rabbid Luigi. According to a poll on GameFAQs, almost 50% of people revealed that he was their least used character in Mario + Rabbids Sparks of Hope. He was so broken in Mario + Rabbids Kingdom Battle, but here he has been nerfed so much. I myself haven't used him much when I first played, but upon replaying I can think of really good strategies for him. I mean, he's great for chaining attacks and making enemies deal less damage WHILE taking more damage right? He also has great movement! Definitely the most underrated character for sure.
What's interesting is that Luigi is the most used character, with about 2% of people using him the least. Luigi's the most popular while his Rabbid counterpart is the least popular. I like playing as Luigi in the other Mario games, so I can see why so many people use him. His long range and mobility are just too good!
Jokes
- What is Midnite's favorite time? Midnight! Or maybe something else. I don't know what time she likes.
That's... all I've got. I'm a bad comedian I know.
Mario and Sonic play sports, while Mario and the Rabbids save the world
I find it funny How Mario and Sonic only play sports with each other, while Mario and the Rabbids save the galaxy from a massive entity named Cursa. This is proof that books cannot be judged by their covers.
My history with My Little Pony: Friendship Is Magic
As of typing this I only have three Personal Images uploaded, and they all have to deal with My Little Pony: Friendship Is Magic, meant to celebrate my accomplishments on the Rayman in the Phantom Show DLC for Mario + Rabbids Sparks of Hope. I am a brony and have been watching the show since May 18, 2022. I have seen all of the episodes (including the Christmas Special "The Best Gift Ever") as well as the movie, although I haven't seen any of the spin offs (e.g. Equestria Girls and Pony Life). I've seen the episodes mostly on Netflix and YouTube, with two seasons on Discovery Family. Anyway, to the left is an image of Trixie Lulamoon (portrayed by Kathleen Barr), a Unicorn who loves to do magic tricks and perform in front of audiences with her best friend Starlight Glimmer.
"You are a Pirate!" lyrics
![Regenesis and Penguins in Mario + Rabbids Sparks of Hope]]](/File:Regenesis_and_penguins.png)
Are you a pirate? Probably not, but here are the entire lyrics to the song "You are a Pirate" from Lazytown!
Do what you want 'cause a pirate is free
You are a pirate!
Yar har, fiddle de dee
Being a pirate is alright to be
Do what you want 'cause a pirate is free
You are a pirate!
You are a pirate! Yay!
We've got us a map (a map!)
To lead us to a hidden box
That's all locked up with locks (with locks!)
And buried deep away
We'll dig up the box (the box!)
We know it's full of precious booty!
Burst open the locks!
And then we'll say, "Hooray!"
Yar har, fiddle de dee
If you love to sail the sea
You are a pirate!!
Weigh anchor!
Yar har, fiddle de dee
Being a pirate is alright with me!
Do what you want 'cause a pirate is free
You are a pirate!
Ar yar, ahoy and avast
Dinky-dink-dink-a-dinkadefast!
Hang the black flag at the end of the mast!
You are a pirate!
Hahahahaha! Yay!
We're sailing away (set sail!)
Adventure awaits on every shore
We set sail and explore (ya-har!)
And run and jump all day (yay!)
We float on our boat (the boat!)
Until its time to drop the anchor
Then hang up our coats (aye-aye!)
Until we sail again!
Yar har, fiddle de dee
If you love to sail the sea
You are a pirate!!
Land ho!
Yar har, fiddle de dee
Being a pirate is alright with me!
Do what you want 'cause a pirate is free
You are a pirate!
Yar har, wind at your back, lads, wherever you go!
Blue sky above and blue ocean below
You are a pirate!
Hahahahahaha! You're a pirate!
The badness of Search Party levels...
This image is a response to how I feel about seeing people do Search Party levels in Super Mario Bros. Wonder. I don't have the game myself, but based from watching I can see that they are indeed awful. I found an image on Search Party An Empty Park? The description of the image was "Elephant Luigi subjected to play one of the worst Mario levels ever created in Super Mario Bros. Wonder." I found this funny, so when I created Search Party Pipe Park I had a similar description for the main image, but it got changed. The original description is found on the right.
You want fun? Wario show you fun!
Apparently there was a floating Wario head at E3 1996, voiced by Charles Martinet as well! This must have been to promote the Nintendo 64.
Baby Waluigi
I was exploring the BJAODN articles and was laughing at all of the hilarious entries that actually happened on the Mario Wiki. One such entry was Baby Waluigi, a currently unofficial character. These two images are fan-made, and I was just crying from laughter at them. No seriously I was laughing for about 15 minutes. They were that funny.
Funny Wario fail GIF
No way this GIF image will become a running gag on the Mario Wiki right? It's a GIF image of Wario getting knocked out during the Smash and Crab minigame in Super Mario Party. I was the one who uploaded it to the wiki. The footage is self-taken, and I was playing as Boo.
Another funny Wario fail GIF
As if Smash and Crab wasn't bad enough, the vile Wario has been knocked out of the fountain by the heroic Mario! Will it ever end for Wario?
That's all I have for now, but when I think of new hilarious ideas I'll post them here. Did I make you laugh or even smile? I hope so. Thanks for checking this out!
