Talk:Super Mario 10/@comment-24922135-20170109141443

I'd say it has enough Ben 10 elements to remain here myself.

That being said this seems like a big case of "we could so we did, nevermind if we should".

I agree with Ulti's points on crossovers to an extent. Most of them don't work. Though that's normally because they're poorly thought through and basically just shoehorn elements together.

This feels like another case of Steven Universe 10. Both me and CaT agree that if done right that crossover could have been great. But you didn't really think it through well enough, and ultimately forgot about it.

So lets deconstruct Super Mario 10 and see why I believe this won't work. If you ever make an episode, you have to prove me wrong. First of all: "allowing him to turn into various items" y tho? Surely just finding a fire flower would be better? Or does he rely on Luigi eating him for the Mushroomtrix to be useful? Please bear in mind the Flowers/shrooms do actually get eaten and cease to exist when their effect wears off. The implications of Mario turning into a suit to be worn by luigi sounds like it's from the darkest pits of Deviantart. It'd make more sense for it to just give Mario the power up. But considering that power ups effectively prevent him from being one-shot by just about any attack or damage source, that's a bit overpowered. Having him turn into aliens wouldn't work either, since that'd mean he could pretty much blitz through any level because they're platformers and the aliens have increase speed, jumping, strength, and even flight.

Second: You haven't even given us the slightest plot synopsis. It feels like you put two and two together and then didn't follow through with anything else. Is Vilgax the main villain? Did he kidnap Peach so that Mario would give him the Shroomtrix? Why would he want to be able to turn into expendable items to be used by someone else?

Also: Mario's homeplanet is "Brooklyn, Earth". Does that mean that that old movie is canon in this universe? That takes some guts.
