Game Over: Difference between revisions

In ''[[Super Mario Sunshine]]'', the Game Over graphic follows the "TOO BAD!" sequence if Mario loses his last life with a small transitional animation, which is later recycled in ''[[Super Mario Galaxy]]'' and ''[[Super Mario Galaxy 2]]'' in a much faster manner (in translated versions, the "TOO BAD!" graphic says "ARRIVEDERCI," Italian for "goodbye"; in the Japanese version, however, it says "MISS!" instead). Mario also says something, such as ''"The horror!"'', ''"Arrivederci!"'', or simply ''"Mamma mia!"'' The Game Over graphic is red. Following the Game Over, the player is asked if they can either continue from the last save point or return to the title screen. Continuing results in Mario abruptly returning to [[Delfino Plaza]] with his life counter reset to three. However, there is an exception. If the player loses a life when the life counter is greater than zero, the animation differs. If Mario falls into a [[pit|bottomless pit]], the game ends with the screen having an {{wp|iris shot|iris-out}} effect; in all other cases, the screen goes black like a paintbrush painting the screen black stroke by stroke.

''[[Super Mario Galaxy]]'' and ''[[Super Mario Galaxy 2]]'' share almost the same Game Over look with ''Super Mario Sunshine''; if [[Mario]]/[[Luigi]] loses his last life, the Game Over graphic shows instead of the "TOO BAD!" sequence (in the Japanese version, however, the "TOO BAD!" sequence is "MISS!" instead). There is an exception: If a player gets a Game Over because of losing to [[Cosmic Mario]] in the first game, the "YOU LOSE" sign appears as usual before the Game Over graphic appears. Notably, if a player gets a Game Over another way, such as losing to the [[penguin]]s in the [[Sea Slide Galaxy]] or the [[Spooky Speedster]] in the [[Ghostly Galaxy]] or [[Boo's Boneyard Galaxy]] in the first game, or failing [[The Chimp]]'s challenges he requested via [[letter|mail]] in the second game, Mario does his normal death animation instead of the one exclusive to such deaths. The Game Over graphic is purple in ''Super Mario Galaxy'' and yellow in ''Super Mario Galaxy 2'', and in the latter, the text is slightly bigger. During [[Green Star]] missions in ''Super Mario Galaxy 2'', the background is green instead of black. Upon getting a Game Over in the first game, the player is asked to save before going back to the title screen, whereas in the second game, they return to [[Starship Mario]].

''[[Super Mario 3D World]]'' and ''[[Super Mario 3D World + Bowser's Fury]]'' have the same Game Over screen and concept as ''Super Mario 3D Land'', except it has a red background with a brown Game Over sign, and selecting "Continue" causes all Toad Houses and [[Lucky House]]s to reopen. Like in previous games, when "Quit" is selected, the player is sent back to the title screen. In multiplayer, if a course is cleared when players are out on their last lives, no Game Overs happen; all players out are revived when returning to the world map, and the life counter increases by five for each eliminated player in the level. When getting a Game Over, Mario says, ''"Oh, mama mia!"''; Luigi groans, ''"No, nooo! Oh..."''; [[Rosalina]] moans, ''"Oh, no…"''; and [[Princess Peach|Peach]] and [[Toad]] cry in disappointment. When continuing after a Game Over, Mario says, ''"All right!"''; Luigi says, ''"C'mon!"''; Peach says, ''"It's on!"''; and Rosalina says, ''"Never give up!"''

In ''[[Super Mario Bros. Wonder]]'', if the player loses their last life, [[Bowser]]'s [[emblem]] closes out the screen while his laugh can be heard (with "Gwahahaha..." appearing onscreen), and the Game Over screen appears. The player loses 25% of their [[flower coin]]s as a penalty (up to 50 flower coins) and is sent back to the world map. [[Prince Florian]] then gives the player five [[1-Up Mushroom]]s.

In the [[Mario Kart (series)#Arcade games|''Mario Kart Arcade GP'' subseries]], the Game Over screen appears once the player chooses not to continue. Some international cabinets of ''[[Mario Kart Arcade GP DX]]'' do not have continues; at the end of these races, the Game Over screen appears. [[:File:MKAGP Time Out.jpg|Timing out]] in a race may also result in a Game Over. This can also occur in a multiplayer race when 15 seconds pass after the first-place player finishes. If the player times out, "Time Up!" shows up, except in ''DX'', where it says "Time's Up" instead.<ref>Sun Arcade Gamer (October 2, 2015).

* Losing in one of the two battle courses of the [[Six-Door Chamber]] in [[Bowser's Castle#Super Mario RPG: Legend of the Seven Stars|Bowser's Keep]]

In that game, Dimentio sends Mario and his teammates to "the next world," albeit "while still very much alive,"<ref>Queen Jaydes: And by the way, it may please you to know that your game is not truly over. Somehow, you were sent to The Underwhere while still very much alive... My power can return you to your world if you so wish...</ref> which is similar to the philosophy of the afterlife. Mario, Luigi, and Bowser end up in The Underwhere, which resembles {{wp|hell}}, where some [[Shayde]]s ask Mario how his "game," referring to his life, was. Also, many Shaydes can be seen discussing how they got a Game Over. [[The Overthere]] resembles {{wp|heaven}}, surrounded by clouds, the sun, and rainbows. Princess Peach ends up there.

When Count Bleck was using [[The Void]] to destroy all worlds, The Void also appeared in The Overthere, indicating that it would even destroy the aftergame. Where all the dead characters (or even all the characters altogether) would have gone following the aftergame's destruction is unknown; however, a young [[Flip-Flop Folk|Flip-Flop]] girl speculates that the souls of the deceased would be forced to drift aimlessly in the empty white space left behind by The Void due to being left without a world or aftergame to reside in, a fate deemed both sad and boring.

*Performing any of the known [[List of Paper Mario: Sticker Star glitches#Out of bounds|out-of-bounds glitches]].

*Getting Mario's bubble popped by the [[Big Urchin]] during ''[[Snifit or Whiffit]]'' at [[Cobalt Base]] (either failing four challenges in the main round or one challenge in the bonus round, or responding "No" to forfeit the game two times).

In ''[[Mario & Luigi: Superstar Saga]]'', if both Mario and Luigi reach zero [[Heart Point|HP]] in battle, a rounded-curved red "Game Over" text appears and the last Mario Bro. to fall says, ''"Mama mia!"'' Since defeating [[Queen Bean]], the player has an option to continue the game from the last save point or from [[Beanbean Castle]]; the Continue screen depicts a desk with a sign reading "GAME OVER," and the latter choice does not revert playtime to when the game is last saved. Another Game Over can occur if the player runs out of time escaping [[Bowser's Castle]] after defeating [[Cackletta]]: The screen shakes, followed by a scene of the castle in the sky exploding and the screen turning completely red. The game then immediately takes the player back to their last save point.

In ''[[Mario & Luigi: Paper Jam]]'', like in the previous installment, the Game Over text is completely blue and now uses the second font of the ''Super Mario'' franchise as seen in modern installments. If a player fails to complete a mission, gets defeated in the Boss Battle Ring, loses all health in a Papercraft Battle, or gets a C score rating in the Attackathon arcade machine, the "Too Bad" message is displayed instead. The "Too Bad" message is displayed in two ways: either falling down with purple smoke and slightly dislodging itself or falling down like a wave. Unlike in the previous installments, the Game Over screen causes the music to fade out, leaving it without any music, like in ''Mario & Luigi: Bowser's Inside Story''.

In ''[[Mario & Luigi: Superstar Saga + Bowser's Minions]]'', the Game Over text is completely blue, resembling the one from ''Mario & Luigi: Paper Jam''. ''"Mama mia!"'' can be heard just like in the original (though both Mario Bros. say it instead of the last brother to fall in battle), and the screen's iris-out effect focuses on the two brothers. An arrangement of the ''[[Super Mario Bros.]]'' death jingle also plays. The player is given a chance to either try again or use Easy Mode, like in ''Dream Team'' and ''Paper Jam''. Another Game Over can occur if the player runs out of time escaping Bowser's Castle after defeating Cackletta: The screen shakes, followed by a scene of the castle in the sky exploding and the screen turning black. The game then immediately takes the player back to the title screen. In ''Minion Quest: The Search for Bowser'', if the player's captain is defeated, a red "DEFEATED" text appears instead. Hints also appear, instructing the player on how to lead their squad to victory.

In ''[[Mario & Luigi: Bowser's Inside Story + Bowser Jr.'s Journey]]'', the font for the Game Over text is similar to the one used in ''Mario & Luigi: Paper Jam'', though using a white coloration with a cyan gradient. The Game Over sequence is similar to the one in ''Mario & Luigi: Superstar Saga + Bowser's Minions'', with the arrangement of the ''Super Mario Bros.'' death jingle playing and both brothers saying, ''"Mama mia!"'' with a screen iris-out effect focusing on them. When the player gets a Game Over while playing as Bowser, the Game Over sequence is identical to the one used for the brothers, though Bowser can be heard groaning disappointingly. In ''Bowser Jr.'s Journey'', a different Game Over screen occurs when [[Bowser Jr.]] is defeated, with the text "DEFEATED" appearing in red, similar to the one used in ''Minion Quest: The Search for Bowser'' from ''Mario & Luigi: Superstar Saga + Bowser's Minions''.

In ''[[Mario vs. Donkey Kong 2: March of the Minis]]'', the words "GAME OVER" are displayed in a wobbly red font, and a depressed [[Mini Mario (toy)|Mini Mario]] is displayed on the Touch Screen in place of Mario. The Touch Screen also features "Retry" and "Quit" buttons, which the player can tap using the [[Nintendo DS#Stylus|stylus]] to restart the level or return to the level-selection screen, respectively. If the player remains on the Game Over screen, a Mini Mario can be heard snoring and saying several lines:

*"''Mama mia!''"

The Game Over screens for ''[[Mario vs. Donkey Kong: Minis March Again!]]'' and ''[[Mario vs. Donkey Kong: Mini-Land Mayhem!]]'' similarly feature the words "GAME OVER" and a depressed Mini Mario, with options to retry or exit the current level on the Touch Screen. In ''Mario vs. Donkey Kong: Mini-Land Mayhem!'', an alternate Game Over screen with the words "YOU FAILED" is displayed if the player loses a level created in the [[Construction Zone]] mode.
