>>714482384Real quick, I am the Pauline Jr. theorist, but I'm not OP, I didn't make this thread.
I don't necessarily NEED this Pauline to be Mario's daughter, as much as I would prefer to see what happened to Mario after he got back home after Odyssey.
How does his "story" end?
Nintendo can still make a dozen more "Peach gets kidnapped" Mario games, but in terms of the narrative that Super Mario Odyssey presented to us, where would Mario go from there?
For some reason, Super Mario Odyssey seemed really focused on Mario and Pauline being together, right down to Goombette, the pink goomba, being dressed as Pauline, and not Peach.
