heh, well . . . they DID replace Keanu Reeves with him in the Hollywood Wax Museum once, so who knows.... :p

EDIT: . . . why is this in the Gamecube Emulation forum? :p
Exactly. Hasn't Mario had a greater impact on your lives than Keanu freakin Reeves?!?

(I dunno, cuz I didn't see a Mario forum.)

Yeah, that's what I thought at first too, BUT.....Bugs Bunny and Mickey Mouse ARE ALREADY ON IT. Has ANYBODY here watched a Bugs Bunny cartoon more than they've played a Mario game? That's what I thought. :D

I think most petitions are taken seriously, even online ones. I mean, when Arnold spearheaded the petition to remove CA governor Gray Davis, many people didn't take it seriously....and NOW look were he is. oO

Mario is what's known as a "fictional character". He isn't real. Asides, given Nintendo's current performance, it'd be quite stupid to put him there. It'd be like putting Keanu there for his *coughs* stellar *coughs* performance in The Matrix

And that in itself is wrong. The creators shoudl get the star, not the characters.

Well, Walt Disney obviously has a star. And while he was a pure genius, he was also sexist and racist and hated by many who knew him. So why not honor the fictional characters who represent only good things and don't come with the baggage that most humans do?

That was a sponsored thing; the people getting the signatures to remove Gray Davis were paid PER SINGITURE!

I believe he does deserve a Star. If you think back, he pretty much paved the way for videogames back in Donkey Kong. Millions have played the games and is praised as the greatest character in videogames. And anyway if mario doesn't get it then who will?

/runs and signs petition twice

OK, well that may sound shady, but that's politics: they have enough funds to pay people for that, and it's not like there are a bunch of people begging to get signatures for them for free.

My point was that some people didn't think that petition would amount to anything, but it turned out to be huge. I mean, some people are even talking about amending the constitution so Arnold can be President now, which is ridiculous. But it all started with a petition.

So just because this one is online and for Mario, that doesn't mean it shouldn't be taken seriously (ok, SEMI-seriously)...it could amount to nothing, but who knows?

All of my replies have quoted a different post. I can reply to 4 different quotes in 1 post if that would make you happy, but that makes forums more confusing IMO.

Well, in this forum the rule is to not multipost unless it's vital. Please abide to it.
