Wish: Difference between revisions

A '''wish''' is a strong hope or desire. In the ''[[Super Mario (franchise)|Super Mario]]'' franchise, granting wishes is tied to stars, with ''[[Super Mario RPG: Legend of the Seven Stars]]'' revealing that wishes turn into physical [[Wish Star]]s when they reach the [[Star Road (Super Mario RPG)|Star Road]], which then fall back to the earth as shooting stars after they are granted. [[Geno]] also speculates that without the power of wishes and the Star Road, [[Mario]] might be unable to rescue [[Princess Peach|Princess Toadstool]] from [[Bowser]]. ''[[Paper Mario]]'' reveals that the [[Star Spirit]]s choose which wishes to grant based on the integrity of the wisher, with selfish wishes never being granted. Wishes have also been shown to have a direct effect on the world, such as counteracting and weakening the powers of the [[Shadow Queen]] in ''[[Paper Mario: The Thousand-Year Door]]''.

The [[Sundream Stone]] that the [[Yoshi (species)|Yoshi]]s guard in ''[[Yoshi's Crafted World]]'' is able to grant wishes as long as it is equipped with all the [[Dream Gem]]s. [[Baby Bowser]] and [[Kamek]] plot to steal it, causing the Dream Gems to scatter across the world in the struggle.
