      You could also say it just makes a reference to the Jurassic period in general, though it could be interpreted either way.

    • @alejandrodelrio1134
      @alejandrodelrio1134 5 ปีที่แล้ว +3

      Namadu Oh, I figured to Jurassic Park specifically since at the end says "The park is open"

    @Ability-King-KK 2 ปีที่แล้ว +2

    8:00 That's Yu Ayasaki. She's from "Daigasso! Band Brothers", the same series as Barbara the Bat, which does indeed make her a Nintendo character.

  • @paperluigi6132
    @paperluigi6132 5 ปีที่แล้ว +6

    You forgot to point out the Top Gear weapon in Kingdom Battle

  • @Namadu7
    @Namadu7 5 ปีที่แล้ว +2

    I'm pretty sure a lot of the other Mario Party minigames and Mario + Rabbids weapons (among other things) were references, too.
    For Mario Party, I recall finding a little tidbit on Mario Wiki about a minigame called "Rain of Fire" from Mario Party 5. That's apparently a spell from Warcraft... and, interestingly, one of the localizers for Mario Party 5 (Rich Amtower) had worked for Blizzard before. Though you could make a case for this being a coincidence.
    For Mario + Rabbids, I recall a Rabbid sleeping on top of a doghouse. Beep-0 said something to the effect of "One day he'll catch that Red Baron." Undeniably a reference to Snoopy from Peanuts.
    I'm certain there are far more references than these alone.

  • @particalman1016
    @particalman1016 2 ปีที่แล้ว +1

    Super Mario RPG had a few more, Punchunello also said "It's clobbering time!" referencing the Thing from Fantastic Four, and a Mallow directly mentions Bruce Lee. Also fun fact, the reason for the James Bond reference is that translator Ted Woolsey originally wanted to name him "James Bomb" but that vetoed.

  • @thecrimsoncreep6665

    Also, in Super Paper Mario, in the Underwhere, on D-man references a song of Johnny Hallyday, "allumer le feu" (I know however than he's not very well known aside from France, so this may on appear in the french version on the game)

    @PokeJediTrek 5 ปีที่แล้ว

    You missed a few references:
    - The "Mario Party 4" minigame "Mario Speedwagons" is a pun on the rock band "REO Speedwagon".
    - The Pit Plant at the bottom of the quicksand area in Dry Dry Desert from "Mario Kart: Double Dash!!" is a reference to the Sarlacc Pit from "Star Wars Episode VI: Return of the Jedi".
    - When Wario takes the Form Baton in "WarioWare: Smooth Moves" from the Temple of Form, the scenario is similar to "Raiders of the Lost Ark" when Indy escapes the Temple in South America.
    - The "Mario Party: Island Tour" minigame "Helter Shellter" is pun on the Beatles song "Helter Skelter".
    - In the "Super Smash Bros." series, the beam swords resemble lightsabers from the "Star Wars" series.

    In the part where you show the non-Nintendo Mario Maker costumes, the first character you show is Yu Ayasaki, who is a character from Daigasso Band Brothers P, which is, in fact, a Nintendo game.
