Earth: Difference between revisions

Another '''Earth'''<ref>[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=OD_K8veKC14&t=538s "Perhaps the best way to say it is that the human characters you're encountering here and Mario also live on ''an'' Earth together"] [[Kenta Motokura]]</ref> serves as the planet where the [[Mushroom Kingdom]] and other lands reside. ''[[Super Mario Galaxy]]'' features [[Mario]] traveling between the planet and others across space, while ''[[Super Mario Odyssey]]'' features him traveling between continents within the planet. In more recent games such as the ''[[Mario & Sonic (series)|Mario & Sonic]]'' series and the ''[[Mario Kart 8 Deluxe – Booster Course Pass|Booster Course Pass]]'' of ''[[Mario Kart 8 Deluxe]]'', locations from the real world Earth also exist on the planet, suggesting that the two worlds are merged in these instances.

During the events of the ''[[Club Nintendo (German magazine)|Club Nintendo]]'' magazine comic "[[Donkey Kong in: Banana Day 24]]", aliens erroneously took Earth for a giant [[coconut]], and since they adored this kind of fruit, they took the planet with them, pulling it away from the sun. This resulted in a sudden drop of temperature all over the planet. When [[Donkey Kong]] and some of his friends talked to the aliens, they returned Earth back to its original position.

In "[[Die Jagd nach dem Nintendo 64: Krawall im All]]", from the same magazine, Mario and Luigi traveled through space in search for a new spaceship. They finally found it on Earth (which Luigi referred to as "'''Planet Terra'''").

[[Wario]] refers to the area below the [[Awazon river basin|Awazon]] as "deep within the Earth" in the manual of ''[[Virtual Boy Wario Land]]''. In the ''[[WarioWare (series)|WarioWare]]'' series, Wario has a map of the Earth inside his house. Additionally, the Earth appears in the opening and closing cutscenes of ''[[WarioWare Gold]]''. The Earth also appears in the microgame "[[Shave the World]]" from ''[[WarioWare: Twisted!]]'' and ''WarioWare Gold''.

Earth appears in the maps of the [[Astro Avenue]] and [[Rocket Road]] boards from ''[[Mario Party 6]]'' and ''[[Mario Party: Island Tour]]'', the former being the starting space, and the latter in the map's background. In ''[[Mario Party 7]]'' and ''[[Mario Party 8]]'' (in a [[Surf's Way Up|minigame]] in the latter), the Earth can be seen. In ''[[Mario Party DS]]'', there is a [[Globe Gunners|minigame]] where players run on a globe and shoot opponents.
