jumpman is not mario's dad why do people keep saying this as though it's a Proven Fact
"oh technically it's confirmed that-" confirmed when. by who. matpat saying something doesn't make it real so is there anything in the text of the games that you're referring to.
did you know that the name "jumpman" was only ever used in the installation instruction manual for donkey kong. it was only ever seen by arcade owners, not the general public. all the actual marketing for the game called him "mario"
the only "evidence" for it is that 1) before being named, mario didn't have a name so he could be someone else and 2) isn't it weird that cranky kong is old
time travel exists in the mario universe two characters being babies at the same time doesn't mean they're the same age
and also, the biggest thing, in super mario odyssey pauline literally directly refers to having been rescued by mario in the events of donkey kong??
"oh well technically she could be referring to one of the other times she was kidnapped and rescued by mario in the mario vs donkey kong series" okay but do you think that's what's going on here, in this Throwback to Donkey Kong (1981) segment of this video game
anyway dr. mario is mario's dad
