By LUDWIG VON KOOPA - It's still not his cloud.
If you are lucky, you won't remember that article from a month ago featuring LEGO-ified me. But at the end of that discussion, I said that my set comes with me standing on a very low cloud less than one Mario-length off the ground. I wrote that you could swap me for Lemmy, because the next LEGO Super Mario release also includes a LEGO Lemmy Koopa alongside LEGO Ludwig (...I really don't want to say LEGO me!) and LEGO figures are designed to have the same feet as one another allowing them to stand on interchangeable surfaces. Like the cloud. Therefore, you can recreate the Hotel Mario scene where that menace invades Lemmy Koopa's High-ate Regency Hotel, kicks Lemmy out, and then demands that Lemmy get off Mario's cloud. Even though it was Lemmy's before.
But besides recreating it with LEGO, you can also recreate that scene with Super Smash Bros. Ultimate, as I did:
It's totally off-screen in the video, but Lemmy actually gets on top of the cloud platform by footstool jumping off of Cloud Strife: putting another meaning to “get off of my cloud!” (As well as another meaning to how many clouds Mario claims to possess.)
In the decade since Paper Mario: Sticker Star released, I haven't seen anyone equate the TOTALLY RANDOM BIGGEST FAN THAT APPEARS OUT OF NOWHERE in Hotel Mario to the TOTALLY RANDOM BIGGEST FAN THAT APPEARS OUT OF NOWHERE in Paper Mario: Sticker Star. Which then made subsequent appearances in Paper Mario: Color Splash as a Thing, and even Paper Mario: The Origami King as a very random cameo on Bonehead Island. I'm not saying I'm the first person to ever think of it, but... I haven't seen anyone else. The Fan in Hotel Mario is EXACTLY like the running gag from the past Paper Mario games. They're both big. They both blow things away like clouds or fog. Especially in the Paper Mario stage in Super Smash Bros., where it blows away the cloud platform and anyone on it.
Sucks this happens to Lemmy Koopa a lot!
It's probably not a coincidence that there are big haters of every game the fan appears in. Ludwig at least liked Paper Mario: Color Splash and Paper Mario: The Origami King, though he has an overall unfavourable opinion of Paper Mario: Sticker Star and Hotel Mario. He considers it canon they are the same fan. Do you?

I’ve played with LEGO sets a lot when I was little but none of the specific sets had anything to do with gaming except for Minecraft (a game that really hasn’t been talked about much in this site save for a few articles from a few years ago.) I still have pieces from the aforementioned set lying around though.
ReplyDelete(If I talked about Minecraft more, it'd just be toxic 'cause I don't have nice things to say.)
DeleteI ask you don't get these LEGO sets. >:(
I can never think of that phrase anymore (the title of the article) without thinking of BOTH the song and the Hotel Mario scene. >_<
ReplyDeleteIf you're wondering about wot the music from the cutscene is supposed to be from, that's a variation from Lemmy's actual hotel level. ...So you're gonna be hearing that music for, like, the half hour straight or whatever it takes to get through the level. Awful.
DeleteI think The Rolling Stones song on loop fares a bit better in that respect.
