What Are the " Mario Mandates " ?

Please note this video was made BEFORE the 9/14 Nintendo Direct, with the TTYD Remake announcement. Soon a follow-up video will be made sooner than later. Lizard-y whines about how an era of Super Mario games wasn't as creative. In the late 2000s, after developers began going too far with the Mario IP (Mario Strikers, Super Paper Mario) in order to tone things down, an IP Team was created which would check all character designs, stories, etc. This is the idea of the Mario Mandate, a fan 'theory' which has been found in various different Mario titles. Such as Paper Mario: Sticker Star, New Super Mario Bros. games, Super Mario 3D Land and World, and certain sports games. But is this really the truth? Or is it more deep then you think? Let's find out together as I ramble about the Mario Mandates and try to figure out a conclusive answer as to what exactly it is. - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - Link to Mario Mandates Timeline video (it's really bad please don't watch it):    • Video   - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - ADDITIONAL FOOTAGE CREDITS: ZackScottGames guilhermeoss JuanDefrie D GameplayOnly packattack04082 Typhlosion4President Krow's Graveyard BeardBear Ninbanyan WiiLikeToPlay SullyPwnz Echo the Lombax Trophygamers - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - Socials: Twitter -   / lizard_yyy   Discord Server -   / discord   - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - have a great day, seriously thanks for watching or reading this ♥
