You see, if you want to make a theory, there has to be evidence backing it up or at least there can't be anything that would disprove this theory. This is why a lot of MatPat theories don't hold up. If you don't research carefully, you can end up thinking of a theory that sounds really ridiculous and silly.
And I think this video just showed me the most ridiculous Mario theory I've ever heard. m.youtube.com/watch?v=Mls-Nqcu… (skip to 4:45)
To anyone who can't watch the video, I'll sum it up, basically Princess Peach is the daughter of Bowser. The reason why Bowser is always kidnapping Peach is because he is the actual ruler of the Mushroom Kingdom and is trying to reclaim it. The reason why Peach is only a princess instead of a queen is because Bowser is actually the king.
... There is way too much wrong with this theory. It clearly wasn't given a lot of thought because I can think of so many more reasons against this theory than for it.
Whoever made the theory mustn't have considered Bowser Jr or the Koopalings. They're his kids. The koopalings were once considered Bowser's kids by Nintendo. So why out of all nine kids is Peach the only one that's not a koopa?
Another point is that out of all nine of Bowser's children, why would Peach be the only one who's not willing to team up with Bowser? I know relatives don't neccessarily get along all the time, but Peach shouldn't be scared of her own dad just because he wants her back.
And if Peach was one of Bowser's children, why would he try to convince Bowser Jr that Peach was Jr's mother rather than his sister? Wouldn't Peach be even more shocked that Bowser's doing this to his son? This will be continued in my last point.
Another problem about this theory is that Bowser would not want to hurt his daughter just to be malicious. I won't deny that there are fathers like that irl, but Bowser isn't one of them. Bowser was furious in Paper Jam when he saw his son severely injured. Yet he's fine hurting Peach in 3d world and Super Princess Peach.
There's also he problem that there have been a few games where it shows Bowser and Peach as babies at the same time, Yoshi's Island DS and Partners in Time to be exact. Bowser's definitely older than Peach, but he's still a toddler. How could a toddler have children?
But the biggest problem of this theory is that it unintentionally supports the idea of a dad being in love with and trying to marry his daughter. The Super Mario Wiki page has an article just about how Bowser loves Peach and tries to marry her. These include:
-King Koopa trying to marry Princess Toadstool in the Super Show.
-Bowser admitting that he hoped Peach liked him in Paper Mario
-Trying to convince Jr that Peach was his other parent
-Trying to marry peach and is completely in love with her in Super Mario Adventures.
But the biggest piece of evidence of Bowser's love for Peach, Super Paper Mario. Bowser and Peach are forced to be wed by Count Bleck, but Bowser is more than happy for this wedding to take place. Throughout the rest of the game, Bowser keeps convincing Peach that they're married. The team keeps convincing Bowser to help them by Peach sweet talking him.
... Do you think Nintendo would actually portray a pedophilic, incestual relationship between a father and a daughter?
And this is the final point. This is why you need to be careful when you write your own theories on games. Consider every game that's in the series, consider every way a character interacts with another character. It's so easy to go on the Super Mario wiki and look for how a character behaves or interacts with another character. You could probably do that with other game wikis too.

What has DA done?
It's been nine years for me. Almost ten. I've been less active in more recent times, but that doesn't mean I've wanted to leave this account completely unattended. Even if I didn't necessarily post here, I wanted to at least favourite more cool art and talk to friends. But nowadays, the DA staff have absolutely fucked over this website, and so many talented people have left that it's no longer fun to browse or post on this site. This all started with the sudden Eclipse layout. What was the point in such a dramatic layout change? Especially because the staff put so much of an emphasis on cosmetics rather than actually making a polished website. It's not the worst thing in the world, and some of the ideas I genuinely like such as the chat, banner and creating polls without core. But it started off so buggy, and some changes are still really puzzling. But now it seems like even more people are dropping off because this website is actively supporting AI art. Personally, I just saw AI
Possible upcoming art
So technically speaking I have had the time to be posting more basic art and it’s not like I’ve not been motivated. However, it was pointed out to me that the next picture I post will be my 1000th one, so I want it to be something special. At first I wasn’t sure what to do but since it’s apparently the 40th anniversary of the original Donkey Kong arcade game, I might start doing something based on that. Not sure how long it will take me but that will be my next project.
Update on Life and DA
So I haven't done this type of thing for a while but I figured I'd let people know what it's going to be like on this account. Will I be more active? Am I abandoning this account? That's probably questions some people are wondering. Well it's not a clear answer. I'm not going to completely leave DA. I'm certainly not going to close my account. However, this website also isn't a priority to me anymore. I am still doing my university course and I am really enjoying it. However, it does mean that at this point I have different prioritise. Of course, my number one priority as of these past two years and upcoming year were to finish my course work. The last term of this year got ridiculously intense in terms of meeting deadlines, I think even the teachers started realising this by the end. But if it wasn't for the deadlines, I'd actually be really enjoying the work I'm doing, and I guess I still am to an extent. It feels fulfilling to make work that seems like it could be used in the
Comments on the Bowser Fury trailer
I’ve got a lot to express about this and I want to get my thoughts out before anyone else does in case people think I copy ideas so here we go. As a whole, I’m hyped as hell. I already own the original 3D World but this is definitely going to justify me buying the Switch version, this is a lot more content. Combined with some of the other stuff like online multiplayer, it definitely justifies itself as being full price despite also being a port. To get into the details, first of all, this seems to be a huge sandbox level! I will admit I was hoping that would be the case but I was doubtful, I was wrong though! I see it as like how other open world Mario games have some linear stages like Sunshine and Odyssey, this is kind of the inverse. Second of all, Bowser Jr? That’s... interesting. I’m not hyped about his addition but I’m not disappointed either, I do like Bowser Jr. It’s rare and surprising to see him assisting Mario since the main plot of 3D World has Bowser as the antagonist.
