Hey! Thanks for visiting my userpage! I'm Rykitu. Self-described Mario expert (unless you mention the RPGs). You may know me for my countless edits on various lists, mainly character related lists. Or you're just looking at peoples userpages because you're bored.

Besides that, I also like to research lesser known/lost pieces of Mario media and add missing info to history sections of pages. And every once in awhile I'll make a page where I can analyze media very few people care about because thats what I like doing. Or make a proposal for changes I feel like need to be made.

My history with the Mario franchise

My interest for the Super Mario series started what I believe to be the day Super Mario Run was releasing. When my dad downloaded the game and I played it nonstop. I even got him to pay the 10$ for the rest of the game. Eventually for Christmas I asked for a Wii (which I mistaken for a Wii U much like everyone else did), Super Mario Maker and Super Mario 3D World. All of which I never got, likely because the switch was already out. But I didn’t know about consoles at the time. After that, I slowly lost interest, until 2020 when I got back into the franchise. And when I get into a franchise, I typically see if it has a wiki and start browsing it. Which led me to the infamous fandom wiki. I browsed there for a few months until someone posted NSFW artwork of Max & Ruby (no, I kid you not. I am not sure how that even slipped through with their intense moderation). Which had me leaving that wiki in favor of this one. And after browsing this for a few years, I became a member. I really like it here, everyone is really nice, and we all share our special interest in the red plumber. This is, in my opinion, the greatest fan wiki on the entire internet. And it is an honor to be apart of it.

Extremely underrated and obscure Mario characters that need to be in the next Smash Bros. or else we riot

Characters that should not be in Smash Bros. and if they get in it would be a huge wasted slot. More so than the constant anime swordfighters

Pages I've created

These are the pages on the wiki I have created. You're welcome.

There's also my sandbox where I either construct larger pages or create projects related to the Mario franchise.

Proposals I've started

These are the proposals that I've started for rules to be enforced, or to stop from being enforced.

Rykitu's never ending to-do list

Currently working on

Will work on

Procrastination On Hiatus

My goal on this wiki is to cover everything this wiki can cover. The only issue with that is I still wouldn't consider myself as a professional when it comes to editing pages. And covering multi-language media would be a pain because all I have is Google Translate with me.

List of Mario games I've played

The following is a list of Mario games I've played in one way or another.

Game Platform Comments
Donkey Kong Arcade Fun when you see the cabinet and get the chance to play it.
Donkey Kong Jr. Arcade Same thing with the above, except this game is hard.
Mario Bros. Arcade Really fun, and satisfying when you beat everyone else on the score board because they can't get past the Shellcreeper stages.
Donkey Kong NES You basically have no reason to play again as soon as DK falls to his doom.
Donkey Kong Jr. NES Same problem as NES DK but you get more stages and it's more unique.
Mario Bros. NES Very fun with friends, but it gets repetitive after awhile.
Donkey Kong Jr. Math NES Bad
Pinball NES Epic gamer tip: button mashing
Donkey Kong 3 NES I understand why this game flopped. Not because it's bad, but because the genre completely shifted to every other arcade game ever.
Wrecking Crew NES Fun, but not fun enough for me to willingly complete all 100 phases.
Super Mario Bros. NES Great time-killer. But the controls aged horribly.
VS. Super Mario Bros. VS. System Fun when you see the cabinet and get the chance to play it.
Super Mario Bros. The Lost Levels Famicom Disk System This game has a bad reputation just because it's hard. I personally think of it the same way as SMB1, just maybe play this instead if you're tired of seeing 1-1 for the 50th time.
Donkey Kong Classics NES Two mediocre games in one makes for a meh game.
Super Mario Bros. 2 NES EXTREMELY UNDERRATED
Super Mario Bros. 3 NES Great game, just make sure to play a version with save states.
Alleyway Game Boy Pretty fun, but repetitive overtime.
Super Mario Land Game Boy I feel the same about this as SMB1.
Tetris Game Boy Very addictive. Completely understand why it became the best-selling game for awhile.
Tetris NES Same idea, but in color
Dr. Mario NES Not skilled enough to get past around the 5th level
Dr. Mario Game Boy Same idea, but no color
VS. Dr. Mario VS. System For some reason when I got to play this game at an arcade, they had the 16-bit version in there even though a 16-bit version of Dr. Mario was never released
Super Mario World SNES Really great game
NES Open Tournament Golf NES Meh
Yoshi NES Addictive, but not as addictive as Tetris
Super Mario Bros. Mushroom World Arcade Getting the chance to play one of the rarest Mario games ever made was the only good thing that came out of my trip to Las Vegas
Super Mario Kart SNES The SMB1 of Mario Kart. Good, but the controls are horrible.
Super Mario Land 2: 6 Golden Coins Game Boy Really fun and underrated
Yoshi's Cookie NES More addictive then Yoshi, but not as addictive as Tetris
Super Mario All-Stars SNES Great collection of remastered NES games. But it's overshadowed by a better version with an extra game.
Wario's Woods NES This game is literally impossible after you beat Fake Wario.
Donkey Kong Game Boy A great and super underrated game. This took way too long to release on NSO.
Donkey Kong Country SNES Pretty fun. That's all I'm gonna say.
Wario's Woods SNES I think this game is fun. I just wish I didn't play on mobile.
Tetris & Dr. Mario SNES Fun collection of addictive puzzle games.
Super Mario All-Stars + Super Mario World SNES Better then the original Super Mario All-Stars in anyway all because of Super Mario World. I will look back at this game with fond memories.
Donkey Kong Land Game Boy Why did they think it was a good idea to port one of the most graphically impressive SNES games to a portable console that can't display color?
Super Mario World 2: Yoshi's Island SNES 7.8/10 Too many mazes.
Mario's Super Picross SNES Understanding how to play this game is tricky.
Donkey Kong Country 2: Diddy's Kong Quest SNES Fun, but the 100% conditions are ridiculous. But that can be said for all the classic DKC games.
Super Mario RPG: Legend Of The Seven Stars SNES I have no words for any of the RPGs.
Super Mario 64 Nintendo 64 Yet another great game. Every time I replay it, I always find fun.
Mario Kart 64 Nintendo 64 Rubber banding go brrr
Game & Watch Gallery Game Boy Eh
Super Mario 64: Shindō Pak Taiō Version Nintendo 64 Worse then the original because I can't BLJ.
Yoshi's Story Nintendo 64 The only reason this is on this list is because I played it for long enough for me to consider this something I played. Even though I haven't played it long enough to have an opinion.
Wrecking Crew '98 SNES They turned a good time-killer into a confusing puzzle game.
Mario Party Nintendo 64 Screw everything I said about Wario's Woods, Tug-O-War is absolutely impossible.
Super Smash Bros. Nintendo 64 I have no idea how I beat the story mode in one go.
Game & Watch Gallery 3 Game Boy Color Better then G&WG1 because I played it on a more professional console.
Super Mario Bros. Deluxe Game Boy Color Just play All-Stars. Unless You vs. Boo is your thing.
Wario Land 3 Game Boy Color I understand why people like this series. It's just not for me.
Mario Tennis Nintendo 64 Ok
Paper Mario Nintendo 64
Super Mario Advance Game Boy Advance Great remaster of a remaster.
Dr. Mario 64 Nintendo 64 I am not used to using arrow buttons on controllers with joysticks.
Mario Kart: Super Circuit Game Boy Advance It's Super Mario Kart, but better
Wario Land 4 Game Boy Advance Much better than Wario Land 3. Pretty fun.
Super Mario Advance 2: Super Mario World Game Boy Advance Another good remaster that puts the Dragon Coins to good use and gives the Galoomba's sunglasses.
Super Mario Sunshine Nintendo GameCube Extremely difficult to the point I don't like it. The Lost Levels had a reason to be difficult. This is just unfair.
Yoshi's Island: Super Mario Advance 3 Game Boy Advance In all seriousness, Yoshi's Island is great.
WarioWare, Inc.: Mega Microgame$! Game Boy Advance This game is fantastic. Too bad they likely won't release Twisted on NSO.
Super Mario Advance 4: Super Mario Bros. 3 Game Boy Advance The best advance game when it comes to improving the original.
Mario & Luigi: Superstar Saga Game Boy Advance
Super Mario Galaxy Wii I didn't grow up in the Wii era, so when I played this game in 3D All-Stars I didn't enjoy it as much as other people did. Mario moves too slow in my opinion. Still a good game though.
Mario Kart Arcade GP DX Arcade Fun when you have the chance to play it.
Super Mario Maker Wii U I played this game as a demo in a museum. But I was so young and trash at console games so I don't have an opinion.
Luigi's Mansion Arcade Arcade I might try the Luigi's Mansion series one day, but for now this is my only experience.
Super Mario Run iOS/Android My first Mario game! It's fine looking back.
Mario Kart 8 Deluxe Nintendo Switch Great multiplayer game!
Super Mario Odyssey Nintendo Switch The best 3D Mario.
Captain Toad: Treasure Tracker Nintendo Switch I have no opinion
Super Mario Party Nintendo Switch They were WAY too generous in this one.
Super Smash Bros. Ultimate Nintendo Switch 7.8/10 too much anime sword fighters. Game is still good though.
New Super Mario Bros. U Deluxe Nintendo Switch This game is overhated. The only reason people hate this is because they were tired of the NSMB series. I think it's fine.
Super Mario Maker 2 Nintendo Switch I played this game to death when I got my switch. Very fun, but a bit too limiting.
Super Mario 3D All-Stars Nintendo Switch This game is the only reason I got to play Galaxy and Sunshine.
Super Mario 3D World + Bowser's Fury Nintendo Switch "How do we know whats mainline?" "Everything is senseless cause there's no consensus!"
Mario Party Superstars Nintendo Switch Better then Super Mario Party in every way.
Super Mario Bros. Wonder Nintendo Switch Wonderful game!
Mario VS. Donkey Kong Nintendo Switch I think this is the reason why Nintendo won't put DK94 on NSO.
Nintendo World Championships: NES Edition Nintendo Switch I was immensely disappointed when I found out this game wasn't a proper championship.
Super Mario Party Jamboree Nintendo Switch Better then Superstars, but the method of unlocking things isn't good.
Donkey Kong Country Returns HD Nintendo Switch Pretty good, from what I've played of it.

List of Mario media I've consumed (WIP)

This is anything else Mario related that I have seen, heard, or read that aren't the games.

Media What it is Comments
Donkey Kong (coloring/activity books) Book series One of the first things I did on this wiki was for this series to get better coverage! Besides that, it's alright. I mean, you wouldn't expect peak fiction from coloring books meant for children. It does make you question about the Mario lore though.
Donkey Kong Goes Home Album This album tells you about what happened before Mario started climbing that construction site. Some songs do get stuck in my head sometimes, but there are some bad songs here.
Saturday Supercade TV series Mario's first TV show is also ok. But you should under no circumstances watch every episode back to back. It will drive you insane with the constant Wario and Waluigi-esque characters doing the same stuff for some "fortune". But there were some good episodes (for the standards I have for this show) like Greenhouse Gorilla and Junior Meets Kid Dynamo. It also created peak.
How to win at Super Mario Bros. Book This is a guidebook teaching you to beat Super Mario Bros.. Mostly known for using a unique design for Peach. Sparking a rumor that she was originally a Toad. It does it's job, but the ending is kind of confusing.
Famicom Manga Manga series This was a choose your own adventure-type series that was published in magazines by Shogakukan. It is so obscure that the wiki doesn't have a page for it yet. Both Mario installments were very accurate to the games. And if my translations were correct, I think a Blooper said the F word in one of the books.
Super Mario Bros. Original Soundtrack Album It sure is the soundtrack of Super Mario Bros. That I can listen on YouTube now before Nintendo takes it down because they want me to download a music app with not enough soundtracks.
Hisshō Technique Kan Peki-ban Book This is a series of guidebooks from Japan with 2 of the installments being based on Mario. It was ok, but I did like the Wrecking Crew segment.
Super Mario Bros.: Mario Syndrome Album Of the few songs that were here, both were great!
Sound Mario Bros. Album All of the songs on here were pretty good!
Super Mario Bros. Peach-Hime Kyūshutsu Dai Sakusen! Movie I don't know what it is about this movie, but I like it. The plot is interesting, the characters are great and the visuals are fantastic. The off-brand vibes this also gives off with mis-colored Luigi and Kibidango adds to the charm in my opinion. The only negative thing I can think of to say about this movie is the ending. I'm not a shipper, but Prince Haru being Peach's fiancé in this movie sounds like a self-insert fanfic. If Kibidango didn't become Haru and was Peach's pet dog or something and Mario and Luigi headed home, this would've been fine. Still a great movie, and dare I say better than the 2023 Super Mario Bros. Movie.
Super Mario Bros. Peach-Hime Kyūshutsu Dai Sakusen! Original Soundtrack Album I also like the soundtrack of this movie! The fact that the album created for this movie was preserved is a miracle. Only 100 were ever printed and 95 of them were destroyed. It is insane that this got ripped.
Super Mario-kun (Shogaku Ninensei) Manga series I was the one who made a page for this on the wiki! It's alright, but the humor would not be acceptable today.
Mario no Daibōken Video Watching this with barely any subtitles was bizarre. Most of it is just gameplay.
Famicom Music Album This is terrible. I don't know who thought it was a good idea to make an entire album of someone playing NES games with the sound effects, but it's awful. Never cook again.
Famicom Music Vol.2 Album They made a sequel. Please no. End my suffering.
Fantastic World of Super Mario Bros. 3 Album Nice renditions of the Mario 3 soundtrack. The last song is especially good.
Super Mario Bros. 3 ~ Akihabara Electric Circus Album Not as good as Fantastic World of Super Mario Bros. 3, but still good.
