Background

Super Mario Brothers is a platformer game developed by Japanese game designer Shigeru Miyamoto. It is primarily developed and published by Nintendo, but due to its immense popularity, many other developers such as AlphaDream, Next Level Games, Intelligent Systems, and many more developed most of the Mario spin-offs. While the series started as a 2D platforming franchise, it has since adapted itself into a massive number of popular genres of gaming such as racing, sports, turn-based RPG, party, and much more.

The series follows Mario, the main protagonist and playable character, and his longtime struggle to protect Princess Peach from Bowser, the principal antagonist of the series. The games typically follow the same formula with Bowser kidnapping Princess Peach and Mario needing to save her with a variety of power-ups and occasionally a companion who alters the gameplay. However, due to the series' massive popularity, new characters, artifacts, and locations have been introduced along with unique stories that differ from the standard plotlines of mainline Mario games.

Since the original Super Mario Bros. released in 1985, the series has grown with 21 Mario Brother games (As of January, 2021) across the main Nintendo consoles and a number of spin-offs. Several American animated television shows were made for the Mario series which aired as early as September 1989, and an official manga series written by Yukio Sawada and published by Shogakukan, which is printed monthly by CoroCoro Comic. The Mario franchise is one of Nintendo's most prominent and successful franchises, selling over 360 million copies as of 2020 in the Super Mario Series alone; many of its games are considered by critics to be among the greatest games of all time.

Power of the Verse

The verse is very powerful with the main cast being Complex Universal, and having hax such as Wish Granting, Conceptual Manipulation, Sealing, Dimensional BFR, etcetera.

Terms

Power Star: A Power Star, also referred to as a Star, are collectible items within the various worlds Mario traverses that can grant him access to other worlds in the various platforming games (Such as unlocking paintings in Mario 64, or granting access to far away galaxies in Super Mario Galaxy), unlike the similar-looking Super Stars, which only give brief invincibility. In Super Mario 64, Super Mario Galaxy, and Super Mario Galaxy 2, and Super Mario Odyssey, Power Stars play a central role within these stories due to having potent abilities with devastating destructive power such as realm creation, distorting the laws of the universe, powering advanced technology, and much more. As of now, Power Stars are owned by a variety of characters due to their vast quantity and presence across the Mario universe and are even used by cities such as New Donk City to power it. However, only a few can use the full potential of the Power Stars such as bowser who commonly exploits their power to his own advantage.

Grand Star: A Grand Star is a far stronger version of the standard Power Star that has far more potent abilities. They were used primarily in Super Mario Galaxy and Super Mario Galaxy 2 as Bowser's ultimate weapon to rule the universe. Due to Mario stopping Bowser however, the single Grand Star Bowser had created a supermassive black hole twice which resulted in the destruction and reset of the entire universe the first time. Mario was able to revert the effects a second time in SMG2 however. As of now, they are primarily used by Rosalina to traverse the cosmos and watch over the universe and have not been used since other than a final smash in Super Smash Bros.

Star Road: Star Road (Name varies across games) is a location where the dreams of all the Mushroom Kingdom citizens manifest into stars within the night sky. These stars however can grant the wish of a strong-willed citizen to benefit them greatly. Even a simple goomba with a strong enough will can accomplish tasks that were otherwise impossible for them with a single wish. Star Road is protected by guardians like Geno who alludes to a higher authority that governs the rules of Star Road. Little else is known about the ones behind Star Road's existence, however other beings such as the Star Spirits have also created a source for wishing power in the form of the Star Rod which likely means they could be responsible for the existence of Star Road.

Paint: Paint was a mechanic introduced in Paper Mario Color Splash, and is a universal concept that encompasses everything within the Mario universe. Without Paint, nothing functions as it should such as holds in the ground, water flowing down a slope, citizens thinking, breathing, and interacting with the world around them, etcetera. This is important because characters like Mario can directly manipulate paint in a variety of ways to help them in combat. Even standard minions such as Shy Guys are capable of drinking paint from the environment around them.

Verse Scaling

Each of the Star Children, and similarly strong foes, scale to Mario who defeated Wart on more than one occasion, whos power can put a curse all over Subcon, which resulted in changing its structure. This resulted in the entire universe to be in danger. Defeated Culex, who's power has control over all of time and space. Can defeat users of the Power Stars, which have the power to create several universes that are infinite in size. Defeated Wario, who defeated the Black Jewel. The Black Jewel's power created a parallel universe and destroyed it. Defeated Bowser during Mario Party 5, who was going to destroy each dream world one by one. A dream world is stated to be the size of a universe. Can defeat users wielding a Grand Star, which can reset and recreate the universe as well as destroy the very fabric of the universe, and are 80x stronger than a Power Star. Bowser with the Grand Stars was stated to be a universal threat, with the final battle being titled "The Fate of the Universe". Physically defeated Bowser, who survived the universe's reset. Survived and can walk inside the incomplete Void, which destroyed all of Sammer Kingdom and its space-time. Can somewhat harm Dimentio, who likely created the Dark Prognosticus. The Dark Prognosticus has the power to destroy a dimension. Due to Mario's current power being far beyond the events than Super Paper Mario, he should scale by now. Defeated The Ancient's creations such as Shadoo and Wracktail, as well as being stronger than the Pixls. The Pixls were able to overpower them in a battle. Their power can create universes and destroy them. Count Bleck compared Mario's power to The Ancients. Comparable to Antasma, who can consume and manipulate dream worlds. Defeated King Boo, who's power is that above the average ghost. Their power can destroy the dimension. Defeated the Megabug, who was destroying and corrupting all of space and time. Overpowered King Olly, who was folding the very fabric of reality in order to reshape the world into his own image and several other feats. They also scale to his speeds which are calculated here. Everyone in verse has Paint Manipulation as well as a resistance to it. More explanation can be found here.
