A lot of people complain about there being too many toads in Mario games but I think Nintendo should make a game where they do the complete opposite of what people want and make a game where they add way too many toads to a point where their lifes become meaningless like in pikmin.

It sounds like you just want to annoy the people who complain about this. I like a variety of characters. Toads are cool, but they do sometimes get annoying and I'd like to see a few new characters added to Mario games.
@crimsontadpoles Not really, I gave a reason why I would like for it to happen, if you limit the amount of something it becomes more meaningful and valuable but if you over expose it, it becomes meaningless but can be used creatively since you´d care about them less making them more suitable for tower defenced styled games, when you do exactly what the audience wants your stuff gets boring and predictable
@mjharper wtf are people ripping into this thread, it´s not like it costs money for it to be here lmao and I alway´s hear people talk about how they want more interesting characters other than toads in mario games making it a relevent topic, I thought I´d offer an alternate perspective and people get uncomfortable when something doesn´t agree with them, it´s not like I just typed a bunch of random stuff into my keyboard and pressed enter
I think Toads have been WAY overused lately, being the focus of Star Rush, Paper Jam, Sticker Star, and Color Splash. While I don't hate them, Toads with character (like in Color Splash) are still Toads. A little more variety would have been appreciated!!!

@LegendOfPokemon Yea that´s a good point, I think if straight after a game where they carefully used them, hitting ppl with a game that overuses them would of been refreshing but now it would just feel lazy of them to do it imo
I really like Toads, though to be fair I haven't played every Mario game out there either. I recently finished Super Mario Galaxy 2, and the Toad Brigade is epic.
They can be a bit annoying at times, though I would argue that Yoshi can be equally annoying.

@shaneoh Dawg looking at your account you´ve set up 4 different discussions, 3 of them wasted on you trying to get ppl to play with you online, not that I care that you did that but you clearly don´t care about server costs (if that´s even how it works) Also my thread was posted to try and start a discussion to hear different perspectives on something I´ve heard a lot of nintendo fans talking about, this is the last comment I´m replying to of ppl saying my thread is stupid lmao, not that I care just wanted to shut a few ppl down to encourage more useful comments which has happened
I don't think that it's too many toads in Mario, but too many generic red toads in games. At least include Toadette and Toadsworth in the next Mario RPG and not just generic red toads.

Well you have no idea what you're on about.... Dawg. Two threads alerting PAL users to Pokemon distributions they may otherwise have been unaware of, one about about the distribution of games to Europe, and one based on a game (a single player game no less). I'd hardly consider any of that "getting people to play with me online," particularly as I believe we have a thread for organising online games.
A bit off topic, but I had no idea the site archives all the threads you've made in your profile, that's neat...
...except it doesn't have everything I've made. I've made both the Everything Marvel, General Tablet/Mobile Discussion (both of which are still open), and the Japan Discussion thread (that one may be locked/deleted by now though, as it's been so long), and none of those are listed.
Off topic-ness over.

I'm guessing that the feature didn't retroactively add existing topics to their profiles when it was implemented. Probably more hassle than it was worth.
@MrMario02 Yea I get you, I think for me the problem is the repetitiveness of it, they´ve been very lazy with just slapping red toads into every game so they don´t have to come up with unique characters making toads really boring and worthless, I think my point was they should take that worthlessness to a new place that spawns new ideas but I completely agree with you on that
I do really like Toads, but they've been way too overused recently. While I think Paper Mario: Color Splash is pretty good, I think slapping Toads all over the place instead of using a bunch of different species or original characters is lazy and shows a lack of care for the series. I didn't get very mad that they were gonna use Mario characters from the main games in Paper Mario, but they honestly didn't! They threw out a bunch of Toads, yet ignored great characters like Rosalina, Wario and Donkey Kong who would be awesome in Paper Mario. That doesn't mean I hate Toads, as I think they're pretty cool. I really like the Captain Toad and Toadette characters, along with the entire Toad species in general.

@TheLegendOfLaser Yea I agree with you but I think the problem is more that they´ve added loads with no purpose, if there was a reason for loads of toads I think it would be much better, it really just feels lazy how they´ve done it
