I think all of Luigi's possesions are the reason he's so easily scared and doesn't like to go on solo adventures; that way Mario can stop him if he gets possesed again
Smash Bandicoot I know I would!!
1. Everytime Mario dumps Yoshi in a hole
i hate the disrespect you get yoshi you are my favorite mario, video game AND CARTOON CHARACTER OF ALL TIME!
Does He Have Choose?
Does He Have A Choose?
You can't blame the character for the player's actions

Luigi doesn't deserve to suffer like this.
Agree
@@gacharaelyn4179 I love your profile picture it's super cute!
True, what do people have against him?
Aggre %100000000000
I'll be honest, I was expecting the Shroobs from Mario and Luigi: Partners in Time to appear on the list.
Me too.
I know right
Same. They always want to destroy, no matter what.
Mario & Luigi: Partners in Time, its predecessor and literally all other Mario RPGs that came before Bowser's Inside Story (the ones that came after Super Paper Mario were good except for Sticker Star, but they did play it safe in comparison to older Mario games even if at times, they could feel like the Mario RPGs that came before the 2010s), they could extremely deserve better because they were not afraid to get dark (but in an atmospheric way instead of an edgy way). But there are more major reasons why like their visuals, their battle systems, their soundtracks and their very deep, profound stories.
@@kieranstark7213 Absolutely!
The most dark Mario moment is when he did the Mario.
My favourite thing ever!
You mean the best moment :)
Swing your arms from side to side!
That was my childhood for some reason 😂😂
Xeno Best X, Okay, I looked it up, and I agree with you. Yikes...
Howdy! Thought I'd try something different and talk about one of my favourite video game characters, Mario :) If you'd like me to do other video game lists in the future, feel free to leave your suggestions in the comments. Have a pleasant week and thanks for your company :)
I want you to do Top 10 Best Sitcoms.
Unless you have, can you do a top 6 Steven Universe episodes?
Top ten strong bad emails!!!
Do the top 10 worst memes list
was expecting something from Partners in Time. As for future video games. I have some suggestions:
Splatoon
Pokemon
Zelda
Kirby
Sonic
*THE MOST DARKEST MOMENT IN THE WORLD OF MARIO'S HISTORY IS.....* Hotel Mario!
AzUrArInG you agree ey Luigi
"You know that they say, toasters toast toast."
*Dun dunnnnn*
I hope she made lots of spaghetti!
Katie Keegan *_HELL NO_*
Super Paper Mario is a very dark and emotional story with a bright, colorful and cheerful coat of paint. Dimentio outright *kills* all the main characters before you go to the Underwhere. And let's not forget Count Bleck's constant nihilism and how, if he succeeded, the worlds, all worlds, would cease to be entirely. We even get to see it happen to one of them!
Also not gonna mention how in Galaxy 1 when Mario dies from electricity he becomes a skeleton? _That traumatized me back then._
Regarding SMG, how about when you launch from a canon and into a doom ship propeller? I discovered that the hard way.
Drowning in bubble breeze galaxy in poison kind of frightened my 10 year old self
If you told me the plot, and that it wasn't originally a Mario game, I'd believe it.
And Bleck is one of those villains that acted out of heartbreak, let’s not forget that. Then he noticed the severity of what he has done when he realized his love was actually alive
@@wildzubat5249 drowning in poison in general freaked me out as a kid, just seeing his hand reach out before he dies messed me up
Ideas

Sonic da boi all what
Carlos Molina
Going into the comics, Sonic has enough for a top 11.
No. 1 creepy sonic moment is: dead Sonic being kissed by a human princess...ew
SonicStevenKirigaya channel
Nah, it’s probably the Metarex experiments on captured revels.
“Look at the success of the wii,” shows wii u
To be fair, the Wii U was advertised poorly.
My mistake. That part was edited by my editor rather than me and I didn't check it carefully enough.
PhantomStrider yeah, that console wasn’t very... successful
PhantomStrider It’s fine, just wanted to make a little joke and point something out
Ah yes, the most successful Nintendo console
I'd argue that Super Paper Mario in its entirety is the darkest... moment, I guess? That game always creeped me out.
Thermoxin still is a great game
It really is. A very bittersweet game, especially the ending.. Lady Timpiani and Lord Blumiere.. God, my heart;;;;
I love Super Paper Mario too, but I think we can all agree that it’s one of the darkest Mario games ever created. It’s also home to one of the creepiest Nintendo songs ever made, if not THE creepiest - River Twygz Bed.
I simply love this game, partially because of this darkness
Thermoxin The Void.
That fucking Sammer Kingdom. That sent CHILLS down my spine.
You missed the darkest moment in all of Super Paper Mario: the complete and utter destruction of the Sammer Kingdom. Doesn't get much darker than walking through the empty waste of an obliterated world.
howlingarmadillo That description gave me flashbacks to that scene in Mulan. The gang is happily singing about a girl worth fighting for when they come across a devastated battlefield with no survivors.
*_DO THE MARIO! SWING YOUR ARMS FROM SIDE TO SIDE COME ON IT'S TIME TO GO! DO THE MARIO!!!_*
*_WHAT DE FRICC WHY U HERE_*
That's the true darkest Mario moment.
Friendship
If Luigi swings his arms from side to side though, he’s about to do the Super Dimentio, so run and run far.
This should have been number 1
@@cookienationjr2266 And why exactly?
Still can't believe they did Luigi like that in Smash Bros
That reveal trailer was actually pretty disturbing when they killed off Luigi
@@gamingyoshifanatic4082 Not unless if he's alive in the game.
Even more crazier is the boss Luigi fights in Classic Mode.
@@gamingyoshifanatic4082 what about Ridley's? He used his tail to stab Mario through the face. You can hear the cracks of the knife...tail... thing go through his skull
@@Subpar1O1 Yeah, that was pretty horrifying as well.
As soon as you said "Collapses in the empty darkness", I got an ad of a cat eating a sausage.
That’s what happens when you collapse in the empty darkness
Wait I got a vaping ad for it
The sausage collapses in the empty darkness of the cat’s gullet.
Ah, how I love Super Paper Mario. Dimentio is such an underrated villain.
I think the World of Nothing from Super Paper Mario is the darkest moment in the Mario series
Yeah I'm surprised he didn't include that cause personally that's probably the darkest part of that game seeing a place that used to full of life completely empty. I think that's why Super Paper Mario is unique and considered the last best Paper Mario. I love that game it's a pretty good game with a phenomenal story (especially for a Mario game) that just has some flaws. Also am I the only one who thinks that if Super Paper Mario had a similar battle style to the previous games then maybe it would be probably the best Paper Mario game?
@CountHomer69 2.0 I think that's the point though
You see what happens to a world after being Voided and IS is basically like "If you don't save the works,everywhere is going to be this boring"
think about all the sammer guys
My thoughts exactly. How can someone do a dark Mario moments list and not talk about that?
I thought the destruction of Sammer's Kingdom was the darkest moment
"Waaaaahh!" lmao Mario's scream cracks me up every time.
Phantomstrider: They're always there for one another.
Game Theory: Are you sure about that?
Enzo Araya pretty much, yes
Damn right
“Bowser Booty-call” Congratulations, you said/scripted that.
Yes more Mario videos!! Love these! (And the first Luigi in Luigi’s Mansion is absolutely terrifying) 😂😂
*Starts the video*
Me: Nice
*Sees Super Paper Mario*
Me: (sobbing) Nice. :')
Well, you gotta admit that mario's voice in 64 makes it hilarious
Nintendo,give Luigi a break, he one of my favorite characters(Rosalina’s my first) but killing him off is too much!!!
luigi is litteraly Nintendo's punching bag
It’s pretty amazing how much of a cultural icon Mario is that he even has some dark scenes
Archagent Everlasting
I mean, something like Mario that doesn’t get a lot of dark moments
Archagent Everlasting
True
1:00 Honestly I found it creepy back in the day before Demntio assimilates with Luigi's new form, Luigi belts out, "GREEEEEEN!"
I thought it was Dimentio who said that.
i got creeped out for super smash bros ultimate bad ending
Inspired by Lovecraftian Mythos apocalypse.
bad ending
Gamer L I cried
@@archagenteverlasting1239Probably Dharkon
*The most darkest moments in Mario's history:* Sakurai still couldn't let Waluigi becomes a playable character in Smash.
Friendship at least Waluigi's an assist trophy and not a spirit in the last game
hello
OMG YES
Aaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaa
Top 10 Darkest The Legend Of Zelda Moments.
That series has a lot of dark moments, You have a ton of fun making it.
You should talk about video games more often
Giant Reaper thing from Castlevania? That was Death!
The beta version for the bad ending to Luigi mansion has luigi depressed and upset that he lost his brother forever, not being controlled by a boo.
The beta version in general was supposed to be scarier.
I just thought of another dark Mario moment from dream team. Remember when Mario went into "dreams deep" in Luigi's dreams and it's explained as all of Luigi's hidden thoughts and emotions. And throughout the whole adventure in dreams deep all of Luigi's thoughts are all over the place. The one that got me was one that said "don't leave me behind again bro!" Proving Luigi really gets hurt when Mario doesn't bring him along not to mention how much he loves his bro
Who whould win?
A demon that can posesed any body and has the power to destroy tge universe
Or
*One plumber boi*
Zombie Mario isn't a Mod, it was an unlockable Outfit in an update
#1:Sticker Star releasing
Aaaaaaaaaaaa
Sticker Star isn't even that bad as a game on it's own, it's actually decent. But as a Paper Mario game... yeah it's pretty garbage compared to the others.
@@jojonta2119 You are very wrong. As any normal game, Sticker Star still sucks.
Gordyyy Productions
*It's been seven years.* Stop hating the game this much.
[insert dramatic chipmunk gif here]
Watching this while playing Smash Ultimate, what are the odds?
Parts that stood out to me are Rosalina's storybook and King Boo stalking Luigi in Luigi's Mansion 2
So they are all dead? Hmm
Waluigi time now
WAH!
I still don't really like those dark lists, but this actually sounds pretty interesting.
Keep the good job as always Strider!
Nice list and very nice juggling trick at the end
Sir I believe at 6:43 that is Wii U not ultimate.
Great video by the way.
4:33 There always there for one another, I like that.
Ayeeeee finally some love for super paper mario 🔥🔥🔥
That's one of the reasons why I strongly respect PhantomStrider. His taste in Mario games (outside of the fact that he praised Mario's Early Years which is so underwhelming and unimpressive that it makes Sticker Star look like the original Paper Mario) is why we sub to him.
How did Luigi's death stare not make the list?
Your juggling skills are improving
They don't call Mario the best-selling video game series for nothing!
Yeah it is. en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/List_of_best-selling_video_game_franchises
@@archagenteverlasting1239 then what is
Nothing from Partners in Time or Bowser's Inside Story? Wow. And I never realized how much torture Luigi went through.
Yeah I think he’s basically Nintendo’s punching bag
Ideas for videos:
- Top 6 Best Star Vs The Forces Of Evil Episodes OR Top 3 Worst & Best Star Vs The Forces Of Evil Episodes
- Top 6 Best Spongebob Episodes
- Top 10 Best Movies Of All Time
Could you do a top 5/10 darkest the legend of Zelda moments
I genuinely miss when you appeared in more live action shots than just the juggling at the end. Is there a reason you’re not doing that anymore?
Also no Mimi?
mah boi weegee died?
frick
Awww ya waluigi time
I just read that in Mario's voice....
freecc
1. Dimentio.
Just, Dimentio (and Super Paper Mario) in general.
Also maybe you should do something Sonic related next, it has it's share of dark stuff from a child being shot by the goverment to an apocaliptic city that has no life on it.
I like this new concept of your top tens. Maybe next time you should do a top ten list of Kirby dark moments.
He'd be surprised by how effing _dark_ Kirby can get…
At least Luigi had his title for "Winner by doing nothing"! I mean, have you seen how many times this has happened?!?
If you're looking for a good dark moment, I recommend Partners in Time with the invasion force of the Shroobs and Princess Shroob. Completely psychotic, deal in genocide, harvests the souls of Toads to fuel their own spaceships, nearly corrupted and destroyed Yoshi Island, transforms other characters into non-sentient fungi, and chant destroy over and over again... Partners in Time could almost fill an entire list of Dark Mario Moments by itself.
Top 6 darkest Kirby moments
Sure Mario can be a jerk to Luigi sometimes, but you can really see that Mario cares for Luigi since he literally went to hell and back for his brother
The combilation of mario 64 dying in various ways just made me laugh
3:44 "woah this place is weird, and its called world -1,nice reference"
3:47 really nintendo?........really?
You forgot about the World of nothing in Super Paper Mario in my opinion the Darkest moment in Mario ever
That's why this would is so f'in awesome!!!!
If only Nintendo would make more Paper Mario just so that it can make its games more like Super Paper Mario and older Mario RPGs!!!!
This is a great list, Josh! Keep it up!
Y'know, this video just brought to my attention that there are many...creative...ways you can die in SM64.
"Look at the success of the Wii"
Shows the Wii U
The darkest moment?
How about the existence of Mario's Hotel?
Also, why they do that crap to Luigi!?
Luigi is my favorite Mario character so it upsets me...
Luigi is the perfect host for ancient ultimate power, aparently, so there's something about Luigi they aren't telling us.
@@matti.8465 And Mario doesn't always seem to be the best older brother th-cam.com/video/5eqq3LNuayc/w-d-xo.html
Nope, that's nothing compared to those bootlag Mario games, god that's terrifyingly awful!
TeruteruBozusama yet mario also litterally went through hell to save him...
Strider, you’re right about Luigi not catching a break! With “Luigi Mansion 3” on the horizon, just hope he gets much better luck. Also, did you have to mention ALL the ways Mario has died?! My favorite? DEATH BY PIANO!!! 🎹
I can say I would love to see more video game countdowns by you, PhantomStrider. You rock and your videos always entertain.
10:04 PhantomStrider: Just look at the success of the wii!
*shows the wii u*
Right?
"Spider Peach MOD for Smash Bros Ultimate" -Shows the mod off in Smash For Wii U
"Zombie Mario MOD for Mario Odyssey" -That's actually a costume you can wear in the game, no mods needed
Time to do the king of nightmare fuel, Kirby.
Kiersten Flesburg To call Kirby “The King Of Nightmare Fuel” is debatable among many other franchises that have Nightmare Fuel in them or that does the “Scary and Cute” trope like Kirby. Plus, I’m sure that at this point all of us can see that “Oh, Kirby is not all that it seems to be” thing so it’s really not much of a “unique unexpected topic” to bring up. If anything, it’ll just create another boring video with the same points being made like they already had before with Kirby fans in the views and comments section eating it up. If the content creator were to have an enjoyable style and personality to them, it probably could make the redundant topic on paper seem less boring.
Luigi dying in smash was dark and the bad ending of world of light was even darker
That montage of the Mario 64 deaths made my day xD. Bursted out in laughter
To me Luigi is my Favorite Ghostbuster
it was so dark when Mario was launched in a cannon in mario 65
10:04 "Just take a look at the success of the Wii."
Shows the Wii U, Nintendo's biggest disaster since the Virtual Boy.
I did not expect you to a Mario video. But your still a great TH-camr! Keep up the great work buddy!☺☺
Strider making a list about my favorite video game character? Is it my birthday?
**clap clap**
Happy birthday dude!
It ain’t my birthday yet but thanks anyway!
Happy Birthday
Again thank you but it’s not my birthday quite yet
Well just calling it, Luigi’s mansion
Good timing. I'm totally in the mood for this right now.
This is really great! I'd love to see more gaming videos from you. 😁
Crash Bandicoot, Shantae, Mr. Driller, Rayman, MegaMan, Bomberman, Pop n Music and Puyo Puyo should be your next topics.
The Giant Reaper in Castlevania is Death. Death, in Castlevania, is often one of Dracula's loyal minions.
Also, no World of Nothing from Super Paper Mario?
To be honest, the creepy factor is removed by the fact that all you do in the World of Nothing is walk right for what feels like 5,000 years, and fight Mr.L, also, he's already mentioned Super Paper Mario two times, and only one time it got it's own entry, especially in a top six, I prefer different games per entry, if you have so much games to tackle.
Nice work on the video Strider! Your Super Mario 64 death montage somehow felt hilarious to me due to the juxtapositions of the various deaths and the cartoony sound effects. And for a future video game list, I think I recommend a list of the saddest/darkest backstories of Nintendo characters. Candidates ought to be Rosalina from Super Mario Galaxy and Samus from Metroid.
Glad to see you covering video games again!
Say, maybe you could cover a few indie games sometime in the future?
I almost choked on my root beer during that mario 64 death montage lol
Mario kinda collapsing in smash is just disturbing because seeing such a happy character die like that is just depressing.
Good job, can we get in a top 5 scariest final bosses in video games and a top 10 dark Zelda moments?
This was a super cool list! It would be awesome to see more creepy video games lists in the future!!
Hey Strider, Why not do top 5/10 darkest luigi's mansion moments in honor of luigi's mansion 3 coming to the switch around halloween since knowing nintendo they would probably do such a thjng😆😰😨😵😱👻👻👻
The Spider-Peach mod is from Smash 4, not Ultimate.
And listing a non official mod is kind of cheating, even if it was just a mention. Besides, there are creepier mods out there... Like Bowsette!
The amount of Paper Mario scenes on this list makes me indescribably happy. Thank you Phantom Strider for highlighting this amazing series in your video.
Top 6 Darkest Zelda Moments
You should do that one!
Wow, you actually listen to my comment in last dark moments list, thank you! Even the original Pokémon manga and Twilight Princess manga are dark!
Twilight Princess the game was dark but was held back by not fully exploring it, the racism between Hylians, Zora, and Gorons was really interesting but never became anything, like most of it really. So the manga manages to take even implications and explore them more, the game goes for Tell Don't Show Enough and the manga manages to do it. If there is a reimagining of someday do I hope it takes inspiration from the manga..!
Let's hope that Luigi has a better fate in Luigi's Mansion 3.
Great list! I don't know if you've played any Kirby games, but I'm a huge fan of the series and it can get surprisingly dark and creepy, especially with its final bosses. In case that's something you want to think about. No matter what you cover next, though, keep up the great work!
The darkest moment is when Mario talked about toast
Surprised you didn't mention Mimi's transformation, or what about the LITERAL END OF THE WORLD in chapter 6?
Count bleck's back story is crazy dark too
Mario being impaled by Ridley isn't even an honorable mention ? Why ?
Ikr they had the bad ending from ultimate for gods sake! And not Mario being killed by Ridley?!
@@cosmicmemelord Exactly, they had the bad ending and Luigi being killed by death. I think that Mario impaled by Ridley should have really been in the list.
I'm so glad you decided to do video games videos! Also maybe you should do part 2 because I think another disturbing Mario boss is Cackletta's soul. Like that boss fight almost feels like it doesn't belong in a Mario game lol
Thank you Phantomstrider I wanted a video game themed list
