Mario's more mature image ruin his career? I think not!

    I'm sure everyone was shocked when they heard Mario was going to get a more mature image in his next adventure on Dolphin or Starcube (If I say just one, someone will say it's the other). I'm sure many are afraid that Mario will be changed in a way we don't like. Even if he is much more mature and changed, maybe he'll be like Conker! Not too many people complained when Conker was put in a violent comedy South Park type game! It might be funnier, but on the other hand little kids wouldn't be able to get it. I'm sure that's what alot of you are dreading, but that won't happen, at least I hope not! I don't Mr. Myamoto is quite as crazy as those guys at Rare.
 
     What Mr. Myamoto said was it was going to be more along the lines of Zelda. I bet I know what he ment by this. They will probably be more item using and talking and a deeper plot besides "Save the Bimbo!". I think this would be a very interesting way to make a Mario game. It would be pretty cool if you could use fire power when ever you wanted, or flying power, as long as you had enough magic power or whatever. Yep, that would be very good.
 
     They say Mario won't be weilding his V-Sign any more and will be replaced with a more mature sign... ? I have idea what it will be, let's just hope Mario doesn't remove the index finger from it! :) Also, Mario will have a more mature attitude as his friends will too. Mabey no more mushrooms! Mabey he eats real food. I hope not though.
 
    Or mabey his personality will change to what we thought it in the first place. Have you read any fan fics about Mario lately? Most of them, the Mario Bros. seem pretty mature and not so kiddy cute. It's really kind of hard to tell.
 
    All I'm trying to say is that Mario's change won't be for the worst. Even if he does change significantly, we'll grow to like him, mabey even love him. Or mabey he won't very much at all. And don't get mad at Mr. Myamoto for changing our favorite plumber, if I had a character that got the wrong image, I would want to change it too! Only time can tell, until then don't worry! Be happy! Change can be good!
