Was a blast, thanks for having me! This game will always remain my favorite project/series I've ever uploaded on my channel! Everyone subscribe to ToadBup ❤️
Awesome video collab, you two. I remember watching your M&TMB video YEARS ago, it was a big reason I got into RPG Maker Horror (alongside other games like The Witch's House).
Honestly, as someone who was actively playing Disney Pixel RPG in the background and has spent the last several months hyperfixating on KH, it didn't give me that much whiplash. Or I just wasn't paying attention enough, which is also possible.
Thank you so much for playing my team and I's game. It really means a lot to see people still play it even after it's initial release! Your video is amazing and it really helps me motivate to finish up the remake of it's sequel!
You made an amazing game that to this day still holds up and honestly it's one of the few horror games along side the factor I suck with horror that I really enjoy and honestly I'm glad you made the game and I hope y'all keep y'all's spirits high and know y'all made a masterpiece that will always be loved
I've seen people knock this game for Mario being in it, but that's exactly why I love it. It's always cool to see cartoon/video game characters in a dark setting and have it still be able to be taken seriously.
unironically i think it benefits the story. unironically using a well known character for horror, IF done well, can be amazing. this game made me get better at art and persue game development. corpsesyndrome/team ari are legends.
"Taken seriously" is an overstatement tbh. Dont know about you guys but i can't see cartoony ass Mario in a game full of anime characters being gored to death without thinking "yeah this is super silly"
I would love a Luigi’s mansion fan game in this style but with a twist and the game becomes faith where Luigi must exorcise the ghosts instead of using the poltergust
11:08 If Canon Mario and Luigi WERE in this game, this game would have to change the horror tag to comedy. Like as at an absolute LOWBALL Mario could just rip this entire mansion from it's foundation with his bare f*cking hands before drop kicking it upwards into the stratosphere.
The thing is, if you take all of the murder out of the picture this would work as a Luigi's Mansion game; the mansion is cursed, you encounter the family that used to live there, calm them down, and face off against whatever is responsible for this (probably King Boo).
The original versions of MTMB and ARC got me through so many tough times, and I'm so excited for the ARC remaster. Thank you for covering this; the devs' work means a lot to me and their passion has always inspired me.
though this game isn’t an outstanding masterpiece in the horror genre, i can respect the work that the team behind it put into it, along with the personal reasons for why the creator made it. i played it a while ago since i’ve been an avid nintendo fan for more than a decade and like horror games.
man i miss that time when everyone was playing rpgmaker games, nowdays the rpgmaker fandom is mostly people bullying other people work, calling their game a "quirky indie earthbound inspired rpg".
Mario The Music Box is my second favorite horror fangame (just below Coronation Day), so this video was a delight to see in my recommendations! CorpseSyndrome's artwork is absolutely breathtaking to look at, you can just tell this was entirely a labour of love. ❤
25:27 Damn right it'd be terrifying. Luigi has shown to move at high speeds, possibly reaching the speed of sound or even FTL. He casually carries several giant hammers on him at all times, and those giant hammers don't seem to slow him down or hinder him at all. He can easily destroy castles, has pyrokenisis, electrokenisis, can warp reality by dancing, can go invisible, has a vacuum that could damn your very soul, and he has a kick that can send you several feet into the air. You are not surviving.
Huh. I am friends of CorpseSyndrome and had no idea about this RPGmaker game. I just saw their animations on twitter and Discord, and we had played some Lethal Company. I just assumed they were just another animator, but they took care of me. I hope they are doing well with their art/animation.
I Always found this game unique and cooler than every mario horror games that was popping up at the time. The mario horror games at time were all... in nicer words, not the best of quality. They were all full of wack loud jumpscares and goofy sonic.exe wannabes. But mario and the music box was something different, something outstanding. To the art and all the other stuff mixed in, made it so damn awesome! Honestly wish we had more stuff like it because it's absolutely AMAZING bruh omg. [Also, LUIGIKID THE GOAT!!!!!!!]
BRO WHY WAS MARIO SLAYING IN HIS DRESS 😭 Edit: For the guy and people arguing about Mario and men wearing dresses 1: it's a video game character it literally doesn't matter and 2: Men can do and wear anything they want unless ofc it's harmful. it's a stupid piece of cloth, it doesn't matter what anyone wears y'all need to chill 😭
11:19 Yeah, I get that feeling. When you bring a name with luggage, such as 'Mario', to a form of media, it's kind of impossible to ignore ALL the shit that Mario has done. Like, Mario has defeated Bowser hundreds of times, survived the vacuum of Space, saved kingdoms, worlds, galaxies! Hell, in Mario & Luigi: Dream team, they quite literally stopped a Multiverse ending threat! And Mario is no stranger to fighting ghosts either. He has beaten Boos and their variants with his bare hands ever since Mario 64, and threw down with Cackletta's soul. At first glance, it feels like a disrespect to the character making him so powerless to a few weakling ghosts. But ultimately, this is not a "Mario game". Which means the Mario that we follow doesn't need to be THE Mario, but A Mario. And in this case, something that Mario has never officially been: human. A humanized Mario, with human fears and human weaknesses. A Mario whose death's aren't two-second cartoonish animations with a silly music and a life counter. Of course, the villain of this game isn't a Mario character. So you do end up needing to look past the instinctual discontent that it comes when Mario is essentially toyed with by someone's OC😅
Luigikid is the reason I know and love this game. And I always loved it when he uploaded more to the series. I was sad when it ended and he stopped talking about it but. I glad he’s here with it again
6:20 My first thought when I saw the intro dialogue was "Mario do you not remember the last time you went into a weird mansion alone and Luigi had to save you?"
So when Alice absolutely slaughters her whole entire family even verbally abusing her children it’s okay but when William Afton kills more than 3 kids it’s a problem that’s wild they both had goal and Alice got a second chance…
To be fair, William was also torturing folks for whatever the fuck “remnant” was, thats a couple steps above child murder. Not to defend child murder, just sayin.
29:51 - 29:58 gotta be the hardest ive laughed at a toadbup video💀 really hope you cover arc in the future as this was one of the funniest videos you made so far
This was great! I'd love to see you cover ARC, since I've never heard of it. (Which makes sense, since my only interaction with this game before now was watching a SpaceHampster video talking about it.)
@@greenstarlover1 i immediatly went to find a video talking about ARC after watching this one and hoo boy you are so right it *is* a doozy (but it was so good ughhhghhh)
The long wait is finally over. It's nice to see another video on this game, even though I wasn't aware of it's existence for a while, and only just reminded myself again recently with SpaceHamster's video on it (when he still used to upload) and despite the game's flaws, it's nice to see another somewhat more positive view on this game again, as people tend to see its drawbacks more than really talk about the good stuff that's in it. That said however, there's nothing wrong with having a few criticisms towards something, but at least acknowledge the things it did decently well at, even if they don't improve your overall thoughts on it
wario and the music box would be awesome, i imagine it'd be like this: faster paced, less horror and more goofy. wario can directly attack ghosts and other enemies, but cant kill them permanently. i also imagine there would be multiple "juggernaut" enemies roaming around the entire map that can either kill you outright or force you into other floors or areas (I.E throwing you out of a window, so now you're outside). i think a game like this would be sick
God damn it, I wanna see this now! It'll be great for someone who wants to play it but doesn't wanna see the fucked up stuff and for those who enjoyed the original game and is a Wario fan.
I love this game so much, as well as how much has improved, including the death scenes in comparison to the original in 2015 to now. There is more information to the series from Hazah’s video called, “The Story of Mario the Music Box”, where he, the fans, and the developer of MTMB discuss everything about the series and the improvements.
This video has gotten me back into MTMB, i was so in love with it and i've always just loved how it looks and the story, definitely add me up to the list of people willing to look an ARC video
Many of us got into this game thx to LUIGIKID, and we couldn’t be more happy for it! This fangame is quite an interesting ROGmaker horror game that just so happens to include Mario characters in a way that works and is able to take itself seriously in a way that doesn’t come off as trying too hard. Thank you both for reviewing this game! And thank you both for being great!!!
Holy hell this rose some memories from the graveyard I rememeber watching Linx4 play this game, and i thought it was insane. Glad to see it be recognized. Also I look HELLA forward to an ARC video
Love the fact that Luigikid was pushing for another video for arc so hard throughout the vid. Also been waiting for this vid for awhile now let's go! Definitely would love to see a vid on arc as well
I've been a huge fan from the start thanks to Luigikid, this fangame means the world to me and It makes me so happy to see this game get the shine of the daylight again! I really hope you and Luigikid cover arc. This video was so funny, Thank you for making it, I hope this brings a whole new fanbase to this lovely game
This is the game that blends Mario and horror quite perfectly!! Like in other games, it’s kinda goofy with like spooky Mario but here it’s a slow burn type that gets you out of nowhere. Honestly great game!!
MTMB was by far the best mario horror game i’ve ever watched gameplay of and even played myself. coming home from school waiting to see luigikid uploading the next part were the best memories ever
Very Good Video! You made me remember of this game Why do i feel like Wario and the Music Box would be more of a comical rpg thing like dayshift at freddy's at the start and ending up serious at the end
a few weeks ago I was desperately searching for a video about this game and the results were lacking, then all of a sudden you drop this and like i can't lie its exactly what i needed
Yes!!! I’m so glad to see someone talking about this game! It really stood out to me when I first heard about it years back, and it remains one of my favorite Nintendo creepypastas.
10:39 I'd would like to correct you on this because i think i know exactly what he's talking about The fake door death scene he's referring to, happens when mario interacts with the middle door that is on top of the stairs in the entrance room. Luigikid specifically mentioned the original 2015 version because the remastered actually replace the fake door with a painting of Alice.
Finding a big video about this game was a joy in itself, but Luigikid being a guest was an even BIGGER joy. Luigikid was up there with one of the top 3 youtubers I'd watch daily as a teen. Seeing him again is both nostalgic and exciting.
All that needs to happen is Terminalmontage Luigi to pull up. God forbid Kirbo pulls up instead. Alice would be out of Mario’s body and run straight back into that music box before dealing with that mess… only to be slapped silly by one of the Mario brothers.
this game was a turning point in my childhood, this game ignited my love for horror games. i remember the first time luigi saw a dead mario vividly. shat my pants back then. Thank you LuigiKid for covering this great game
THIS WAS ONE OF MY FAVORITE HORRO THINGS TO WATCH AS A KID. I NON STOP WATCHED GAMEPLAY VIDEOS ON THIS ALL THE TIME 😭 thank you so much for bringing back all these memories
this just unlocked like a core memory for me i think im one of only a few people who actually wanted my parents to get me youtube kids when it first released, and so they did. think i was about like... 8? and i remember i on yt kids i saw a compilation of every single cutscene in the (arc?) game. uncensored and all. idk if it was actually every single cutscene, but i know i saw mario in a suit holding his own head, and had no idea what that was about. i hope you make a video on arc, because i need to know what the fuck happened
I watched a few fraction of luigi kid's gameplay of it back then, i completely forgot to continue watching it and this video just made me wanna watch the entire series from Luigikid's channel
I would LOVE to see a video on Mario the music box ARC. I remember watching Luigikid play it back when I was young (probably either 10 years old or something idk) and i loved it (even tho i was scared of it lol). I would love to see you and Luigikid cover ARC.
This game brings back so many memories... I'm tempted to right the injustice of FNF Mario's Madness not having a song based on this game myself, haha. 10:37 I've seen the original Let's Play. I'm pretty sure the death he's referring to doesn't even have art or a cutscene or anything. It just kills him by slamming against the wall. Honestly, it's kind of a hilarious breath of fresh air from the drawn-out dramatic deaths in the rest of the game lmao.
I can't blame the team for not putting in like, 5 more songs since it was already taking 2 years, but man we really missed out on Characters like Malice and Speedrunner mario for songs like talasiphobia, and bad day. Would of loved a bit more for creepypasta/horror related characters that didn't quite make it.
Man this game takes me back! I remember when Luigikid first started playing it on his channel all those years ago, especially before the release of the final version! The game still holds up well today, and I am so glad for CorpseSyndrome and her team! I can't wait to see you and Rene talk about ARC!
YEAH!!!!! MTMB MENTIONED!!!💥💥💥 Please do a vid on ARC! It goes into a lot more details about the characters (and also introduces my favorite (totally straight) Christian character :D )
this popped up in my feed, it unlocked a stored away memory and I can't help it but keep smiling because i thought this game would be buried to obscurity. i watched this be played by Taste gaming, i don't watch him anymore but this and his playthrough of the the mario's nights at freddy's game (can't exactly remember what it was called). I loved those two mario crossover with FNAF and horror story game so much. thank you for covering this. (Apologies for my broken english.)
I was literally just shocked to see this was recent since Mario and the music box was old as heck, then you got luigikid to talk about this, but has anyone questioned about the body structure of Mario and Luigi being in their respective designs, them the humans and ghosts are just *normal,* and yet the art style of them all is just *amazing* Also I don’t think I’ve seen much of the remastered, or my memory is failing me, I only honestly remember when you had to mash a button to save Mario
Definitely make that ARC video, it's been too long and i don't have the time to rewatch a playthrough 😂 On the ither hand, as a massive wario fan, wario and the music box would go insanely hard. I imagine he could bw treasure hunting a cursed artifact that could potentially tie in with mario being a playable character and it being a mario + wario horror game
Great video and worth the wait! Would love to see a video on Arc next :) It's always awesome to see coverage on RPG Maker horror games, even years later. Keep up the good vids and editing!
I still remember when I first watched @Luigikid play his 7th part of Mario and the Music Box. It's been my favorite horror game ever since! I love how the game progressed from a small demo into an amazing game.
Was a blast, thanks for having me! This game will always remain my favorite project/series I've ever uploaded on my channel!

Im surprised your still working on the game. Hope your doing well and that the remake turns out amazing!!
I've seen people knock this game for Mario being in it, but that's exactly why I love it. It's always cool to see cartoon/video game characters in a dark setting and have it still be able to be taken seriously.
This trend still lingers on to this day. See "Friday Night Funkin': Mario's Madness V2".
Stuff like this is amazing when done right.
I do still think that it’s a bit iffy with how he’s put in, but I’d say it gives its own branch of charm.

ah yes mario and the music box, the game where one of the death scenes is you getting mauled by a fish
thats in arc iirc- and you get beaten to death with it (iirc) (which was just funny as hell ngl, almost as good as the lamp scene XDDD)
Wait, what? I need to see that now
Edit: I just saw it and what the heck
@audreygo1828 is the best death in all videogame history
I would love a Luigi’s mansion fan game in this style but with a twist and the game becomes faith where Luigi must exorcise the ghosts instead of using the poltergust
Instead of MORTIS it's DI MORTE
“I absolve you of your sins”
*ghost dies*
“You have been forgiven.”
would actually love this ngl
that's literally FAITH
Unleash john ward upon this cursed place and see the demons flee like hell hehehhehe

If Canon Mario and Luigi WERE in this game, this game would have to change the horror tag to comedy.
Like as at an absolute LOWBALL Mario could just rip this entire mansion from it's foundation with his bare f*cking hands before drop kicking it upwards into the stratosphere.

@@juliannocartagena2007Same. Pretty sure he does Twitch streams now though, so he's still around.

If Luigi just brought the poltergust there would be no game it'd just be ghost decimation
I would love to see that.
That's new game+
Mario and the music box expect Mario and Luigi have their canon abilities.
4:32 They "became extra, pretty-good friends!" - dunno why, but the way he delivered this line is adorable. Makes my soul happy haha

For some reason I thought the thumbnail presented Mario pregnant.
I hate how I can see that now
sometimes silence is an acceptable option
When I saw the thumbnail, I thought Mario was holding a heart.
Why
I CAN'T UNSEE IT NOW 😭
Huh. I am friends of CorpseSyndrome and had no idea about this RPGmaker game. I just saw their animations on twitter and Discord, and we had played some Lethal Company. I just assumed they were just another animator, but they took care of me. I hope they are doing well with their art/animation.

Haven’t heard of Luigikid in years. Glad he’s still making content.
Same here
please do Mario arc, I didn't even know Mario and the music box even had a sequel like at ALL.

If i had-a nickel for everytime I got locked in a ghost mansion, i'd have 4 nickels,
Which isnt-a much, but is still an alarming amount...

amazing video toadbup! even though i only saw half of it. i loved it ❤
wario and the music box would be awesome, i imagine it'd be like this:
faster paced, less horror and more goofy. wario can directly attack ghosts and other enemies, but cant kill them permanently. i also imagine there would be multiple "juggernaut" enemies roaming around the entire map that can either kill you outright or force you into other floors or areas (I.E throwing you out of a window, so now you're outside). i think a game like this would be sick
Wario kills the big bad ghost by farting on it
Whats even funnier is that wario is technically immortal because in quote "he just doesn't feel like dieing" yes this is canon lol
I imagine some deaths would be if you allow him to brute force puzzles.
God damn it, I wanna see this now!
It'll be great for someone who wants to play it but doesn't wanna see the fucked up stuff and for those who enjoyed the original game and is a Wario fan.

Looks like you've definitely had your work put in for this one.
You and luigikid are some of my favorite content creator's in the horror genre
This really makes Luigi's Mansion look silly (even the creepy pasta and beta bits)
2:11 ahhh its feels really good to hear that line once more
Love the fact that Luigikid was pushing for another video for arc so hard throughout the vid. Also been waiting for this vid for awhile now let's go! Definitely would love to see a vid on arc as well
I've been a huge fan from the start thanks to Luigikid, this fangame means the world to me and It makes me so happy to see this game get the shine of the daylight again! I really hope you and Luigikid cover arc. This video was so funny, Thank you for making it, I hope this brings a whole new fanbase to this lovely game
This is the game that blends Mario and horror quite perfectly!! Like in other games, it’s kinda goofy with like spooky Mario but here it’s a slow burn type that gets you out of nowhere. Honestly great game!!
0:57 nah but fr coronation day has to be like one of the best horror roms out there for smw
MTMB was by far the best mario horror game i’ve ever watched gameplay of and even played myself. coming home from school waiting to see luigikid uploading the next part were the best memories ever
this like fear & hunger but it's Italian bros suffering
I’m so glad people remember this game and not only that but seeing Luigikid again after YEARS is so nice 😭😭😭😭😭
Very Good Video! You made me remember of this game
Why do i feel like Wario and the Music Box would be more of a comical rpg thing like dayshift at freddy's at the start and ending up serious at the end
Yeah, I can imagine that. Basically a parody/abridged version. I'm down
a few weeks ago I was desperately searching for a video about this game and the results were lacking, then all of a sudden you drop this and like i can't lie its exactly what i needed
I'm curious to see the ARC continuation! Loved this video as always!
Yes!!! I’m so glad to see someone talking about this game! It really stood out to me when I first heard about it years back, and it remains one of my favorite Nintendo creepypastas.
OMG now i know why it took so long. Mad respect for how much effort you put in your videos especially this one.👏👌
Toad bups Shadow the hedge his combination taco bell and pizza hut shirt is fire 🔥🔥🔥
10:39 I'd would like to correct you on this because i think i know exactly what he's talking about
The fake door death scene he's referring to, happens when mario interacts with the middle door that is on top of the stairs in the entrance room. Luigikid specifically mentioned the original 2015 version because the remastered actually replace the fake door with a painting of Alice.
Yeah i honestly wasn’t sure what he was referring to and i couldnt find it online, thanks for the correction!
I'm gonna find a way to mod it and add me where I just kill everything
Finding a big video about this game was a joy in itself, but Luigikid being a guest was an even BIGGER joy.
Luigikid was up there with one of the top 3 youtubers I'd watch daily as a teen. Seeing him again is both nostalgic and exciting.
I’d love to see a continuation! This is such a delightful little game!!
about a week ago this game came back into my mind again after watching it years ago... and then this vid comes out. lol. amazing vid.
All that needs to happen is Terminalmontage Luigi to pull up. God forbid Kirbo pulls up instead. Alice would be out of Mario’s body and run straight back into that music box before dealing with that mess… only to be slapped silly by one of the Mario brothers.
Why can i see that? Why isn’t that a thing?
oh my god yes I want to see that so badly hsfhgsvfjhsvhfjs
this game was a turning point in my childhood, this game ignited my love for horror games. i remember the first time luigi saw a dead mario vividly. shat my pants back then. Thank you LuigiKid for covering this great game
THIS WAS ONE OF MY FAVORITE HORRO THINGS TO WATCH AS A KID. I NON STOP WATCHED GAMEPLAY VIDEOS ON THIS ALL THE TIME 😭 thank you so much for bringing back all these memories
It makes me so happy to see stuff on this game again and to just see the game again its been so long
I’ve just loved every single one of your videos but this one was so so good
This was a treat to watch! I’d love to see you do the continuation
This video is great, experiencing this game again was a very welcome nostalgia trip. Would love to see you cover the sequel!!
This is THE classic. Always loved this game,and it's always nice for it to be talked about! Arc is really good too.
this just unlocked like a core memory for me
i think im one of only a few people who actually wanted my parents to get me youtube kids when it first released, and so they did. think i was about like... 8? and i remember i on yt kids i saw a compilation of every single cutscene in the (arc?) game. uncensored and all. idk if it was actually every single cutscene, but i know i saw mario in a suit holding his own head, and had no idea what that was about.
i hope you make a video on arc, because i need to know what the fuck happened
It was on RUclips KIDS?!!!
YES, ITS FINALLY OUT!
I watched a few fraction of luigi kid's gameplay of it back then, i completely forgot to continue watching it and this video just made me wanna watch the entire series from Luigikid's channel
I think why the reason i stopped watching the series is because i got really confused what to watch next etc etc
I would LOVE to see a video on Mario the music box ARC. I remember watching Luigikid play it back when I was young (probably either 10 years old or something idk) and i loved it (even tho i was scared of it lol). I would love to see you and Luigikid cover ARC.
This game brings back so many memories...
I'm tempted to right the injustice of FNF Mario's Madness not having a song based on this game myself, haha.
10:37 I've seen the original Let's Play. I'm pretty sure the death he's referring to doesn't even have art or a cutscene or anything. It just kills him by slamming against the wall.
Honestly, it's kind of a hilarious breath of fresh air from the drawn-out dramatic deaths in the rest of the game lmao.
I can't blame the team for not putting in like, 5 more songs since it was already taking 2 years, but man we really missed out on Characters like Malice and Speedrunner mario for songs like talasiphobia, and bad day. Would of loved a bit more for creepypasta/horror related characters that didn't quite make it.
I watched someone play this game so long ago and I've been trying to find it ever since thank you very much for reminding people of this masterpiece.
Omg please make that Psycho Waluigi video
29:55 I mean there was an official sonic game where if you don't get all the chaos emeralds, it is presumed Eggman Kills Tails, So...
That Just A Theory A Game-
@classictails3055 Theory! Anyways, that's a game fact! Check out the bad ending of one of the 8-bit titles. Can't remember which.
Man this game takes me back! I remember when Luigikid first started playing it on his channel all those years ago, especially before the release of the final version! The game still holds up well today, and I am so glad for CorpseSyndrome and her team! I can't wait to see you and Rene talk about ARC!
44:33 Better question,
WHY WASN’T KING BOO THE ONE RESPONSIBLE FOR ALL OF THE BULLSHIT IN THE MANSION?! (I mean, the whole cursed part of it).
YEAH!!!!! MTMB MENTIONED!!!💥💥💥
Please do a vid on ARC! It goes into a lot more details about the characters (and also introduces my favorite (totally straight) Christian character :D )
Dude I remember being 10 and watching luigi kid play this!!! Im 20 now, and really happy theres still video coverage on this :D!
Finally! SOMEONE remembers this game! im so happy watching luigikid play this was crazy! It was scary but rlly good to watch!!
this popped up in my feed, it unlocked a stored away memory and I can't help it but keep smiling because i thought this game would be buried to obscurity.
i watched this be played by Taste gaming, i don't watch him anymore but this and his playthrough of the the mario's nights at freddy's game (can't exactly remember what it was called). I loved those two mario crossover with FNAF and horror story game so much.
thank you for covering this.
(Apologies for my broken english.)
Finally, the game is getting more recognition over time. Can't wait for you ti review the ARC.
Great video on a game im so nostalgic for. I still remember watching Luigikid play it back in like 2017 and getting hooked.
New sub!
Oh, that’s gore of my comfort character
I was literally just shocked to see this was recent since Mario and the music box was old as heck, then you got luigikid to talk about this, but has anyone questioned about the body structure of Mario and Luigi being in their respective designs, them the humans and ghosts are just *normal,* and yet the art style of them all is just *amazing*
Also I don’t think I’ve seen much of the remastered, or my memory is failing me, I only honestly remember when you had to mash a button to save Mario
Definitely make that ARC video, it's been too long and i don't have the time to rewatch a playthrough 😂
On the ither hand, as a massive wario fan, wario and the music box would go insanely hard. I imagine he could bw treasure hunting a cursed artifact that could potentially tie in with mario being a playable character and it being a mario + wario horror game
i needed this video so much. i love this game with all my heart, and i'm so glad someone made a video on it.
Yes, please talk about the Mario Arc too! I wanna see how deep the rabbit hole goes.
Hehe... Rabbit...
Great video and worth the wait! Would love to see a video on Arc next :) It's always awesome to see coverage on RPG Maker horror games, even years later. Keep up the good vids and editing!
W Video
Now beat arc without saving for the true ending.
pfft yes this
I still remember when I first watched @Luigikid play his 7th part of Mario and the Music Box. It's been my favorite horror game ever since! I love how the game progressed from a small demo into an amazing game.
Why didn't Mario's Madness do a song on this game? They made a secret song for an Australian Nintendo commercial, but not this master piece?
I would love it if you talked about Mario and the music box arc, I grew up watching that game every day
I would love to see you talk about Mario the music box arc
