Not only is it a good fighting game with cool objects, and cool places to play at, but it's you versus other various Nintendo characters! Very cool. Yes, I know there are lots of FAQs and Move Lists at GameFAQs already for this game, and I am aware of all the character FAQs. Well, guess what? There's no Mario character FAQs and this game has been out for over a month already! So, I felt bad for this famed Nintendo character and whipped up this little FAQ. Aren't I so generous? The only thing that could improve this game is Wario being a character in the game. Wario - I can't get enough of the guy. Note: This is very much like my Yoshi character FAQ, so please don't get confused. I used the same layout, and some of the same content except modified into Mario material. Mario's move list has also been completely changed. This should eliminate all confusion you have if you just read the Yoshi character guide. ++++++++++++++++++ 2) Update History ++++++++++++++++++ 1/7/00 Version 1.1 No actual update or changes to the FAQ... I just changed my alias and e-mail address and replaced it everywhere in this FAQ. Please note that cripplerx@hotmail.com is no longer my e-mail address! Outkast outkast325@hotmail.com P.S. - If you want the reason for the name change, mail me and let me know and I'll tell you (this isn't the place to explain). Version 1.0 (7/28/99) - FAQ Release. - All sections added. - This FAQ will probably not be updated in the future (maybe once). ++++++++++++++++++ 3) Mario's Profile ++++++++++++++++++ If you're a Nintendo fan and you need Mario's profile, I feel kind of sorry for you. Well anyways, here's the profile anyway. - Most famous Nintendo character. - Nintendo "Originator." - Nintendo games that he appears in: NES: Super Mario Brothers, Super Mario Brothers 2, Super Mario Brothers 2 (Japan), Super Mario Brothers 3. Super NES: Super Mario All Stars, Super Mario Kart, Super Mario RPG: Legend of the Seven Stars, Super Mario World, Super Mario World 2. Nintendo 64: Super Mario 64, Mario Kart 64, Super Smash Brothers, Mario Golf, Mario Party. Gameboy/Gameboy Color Super Mario Brothers Deluxe, Super Mario Land, Super Mario Land 2, Super Mario Land 3. That's a nice resume, no? - Known for his releationship with Princess Peach (let's just say that they're more than friends). - His evil twin is Wario, featured in various Nintendo games. - Famous Quote: "Its a-me, Mario!" ++++++++++++++++++ 4) Move List ++++++++++++++++++ ---------------------------------------------------------------------------- Moves With The B Button ---------------------------------------------------------------------------- B Fireball Down + B Tornado Up + B Jumping Punch ---------------------------------------------------------------------------- Moves With The A Button ---------------------------------------------------------------------------- A Punch Down + A Spin Kick Up + A Head Butt Walking + A Kick A + A+ A Punching/Kicking Combo ---------------------------------------------------------------------------- Special Moves ---------------------------------------------------------------------------- R Jumping Kick Running + R Super Kick (1) Jump + Down + R Super Kick (2) Jump + Up + R High Kick ++++++++++++++++++++++++ 5) Strengths/Weaknesses ++++++++++++++++++++++++ Strengths - The Fireball, which is Mario's basic move, is a good way of holding your opponent's back. For example, if Ness is coming after you with a hammer, keep shooting fireball at him so he can't get to you. - His special moves (moves used with the R button) are very powerful and are good ways of causing a good amount of damage to your opponent. - He's not that big so he's not a huge target for your opponent's to try and hit. Weaknesses - Some of his moves do none / barely any damge to your opponent's which will make you really on weapons quite often. - He doesn't carry a weapon around automatically (for example, Samus and Fox are equipped with guns throughout the entire fight no matter what you do). ++++++++++++++++++ 6) Mario FAQ ++++++++++++++++++ ===== Q: What are the different outfits Mario can have in the game? A: Oops, I guess I should have stuck this in the profile, right? #1 The normal Mario outfit. #2 Brown hat and pants, light brown shirt, blue shoes. #3 The normal Mario outfit with the colors switched. #4 Wario's outfit (now we're talking!). ===== ===== Q: How do I access Mario in the game? A: He's not a secret character, you can be him immediately without having to beat anything. ===== ===== Q: Do you recommend me being Mario in the game? A: Personally, I like Link and Pikachu, but be sure to give everyone a try, including Mario. ===== ===== Q: Are you going to list the damage caused to opponent's after Mario's moves? A: No. This is just a simple, quick FAQ that was made to allow you to use Mario's moves and hopeufully be good with Mario. ++++++++++++++++++ 7) Credits ++++++++++++++++++ It took me awhile to get the games in my hands (I rented it when it first came out, then it was off the shelves at Blockbuster for months). Then, I had to sit down and write down Mario's moves which wasn't too enjoyable (and it hurt my hand), but all in all, this FAQ isn't that big; it's just to help you out if you decide to be Mario.
