The story of Mario RPG does not "continue" anywhere, in paper mario or anywhere else. And publishing a game does not constitute an endorsement of canon, especially when it has not been honored in any way shape or form.

No, she is called Peach here too. Being nostalgic of a poor translation in the 80s is meaningless.

>>3327438
I never said Peach wasn't a Princess.

If by "here" you mean "Mushroom Kingdom" then yes, there is.

Poor translation. That was the first time a US game ever called anything but "Princess Toadstool" but they also needed a graphic of her name being signed.

>>3327377
Considering those "Japs" are the ones that make the games and write the canon, yes.

Mario RPG is not canon. It was a side-game made by Square Enix and is not honored nor verified by miyamoto

She was always Peach. No original Japanese game ever called her "toadstool".

Mario isn't a "VIP", he is the President. And Peach is not a monarch, nor is the Mushroom Kingdom a monarchy

HOW DARE YOU SECOND GUESS ME! Goombas are made to resemble chestnuts, not mushrooms. The japanese name for them is "kuribo" which literally means "chestnut kids".

A japanese mythical sprite has nothing to do with dragons. Its a fairy.

The point of the OP which you failed to grasp was that I was addressing specific rumors. Not making generic statements.

Don't change these.
