You, a dumb socialist: "Video games should be affordable." Me, an intelligent capitalist: "I LOVE PAYING $80 TO PLAY AS PEEPA, POKEY, STINGBY, CONKDOR, SWOOP, PARA-BIDDYBUD, AND COIN COFFER!" (hexbear.net)

It's the fish from Mario, it's also in SM64

I should've been clearer, sorry. I know what a cheep cheep is, but there's very little characterization or an interesting-looking model, I don't think it should be s playable character in Mario kart. It's a non-character. It's like saying "the warp pipe is now a playable character in Mario kart"

Call yourself a leftist, but only monarchs like Princess Peach and King Koopa can be characters now, eh? smuglord

Piranha plant is now a playable character, to me that's just barely one step above playable warp pipe.

Bro if you said "what if I could play as a warp pipe" to a Nintendo exec literal dollar signs would flash in their eyes.

Then they'd fire you, incept the idea into Shigeru Miyamoto, and he'd release Super Mario Wonder. Or Odyssey.

I like all the enemy goobers. Monty Mole is one of my favs.
