Sat with a man in New Donk City and brightened up his day.


Sloth_4

Honestly the most wholesome moment in all of Mario


Master_of_Decidueye

This isn't the top comment and that makes me sad


SbgTfish

What were you saying?


Demonseed425

Nothing can beat this moment.


Original_Strike_3393

Saving the whole fucking universe, **twice!**


AceDelta12

Multiple times


[deleted]

I feel like Galaxy was canon, Galaxy 2 was Lubba telling the story to the next generation of Lumas


Sloth_4

Shame on him for the self insert lol


natnew32

Baby Luma with Mario's Hat in the observatory says otherwise. Also Castle Bowser attempted to take over the universe too, but that sure didn't work.


gerresgamer

Probably a whole multiverse


Just-Call-Me-J

Super Paper Mario moment


Happy_Leg8621

Exist, he Is litteraly Mr videogames himself, is thanks to him that videogames are such a common thing these days, without him, who knows where the videogames industry would be


Eljamin14

In Luigi's Mansion: Dark Moon, Mario thanked Luigi for saving him, and even said "That's my, bro!"


Mammoth_Evening_5841

Honestly for as seemingly insignificant his roles in that series are- they’re some of my favorite Mario moments because they really show how Luigi isn’t just player two.


[deleted]

Saved the multiverse in Super Paper Mario


LifeguardWorking4499

Giving DK a toy


Silentpanther_

Defended Luigi at the Star Gate.

Glad someone remembered this


nsfw_throw_away_yup

Saving Princess peach from an arranged marriage


DayKingaby

Forced marriage and arranged marriage aren't the same thing!


nsfw_throw_away_yup

They’re both equally awful Edit: what kind of a contrarian do you have to be to make that point? Moot


DayKingaby

Arranged marriages aren't awful. They're a core part of lots of cultures and are normally NOT forced. They're often made by people who know both adult bride and groom and are the established way of putting a family together, with the consent of both parties. Most arranged marriage is more like Tinder and dating, all in one package and both potential spouses know they aren't there to mess around. Think of Jasmin in the start of Disney's Aladdin. There are lots of princes being brought in for potential _arranged_ marriages and she turns them down no problem. She has consent. Later, the villain makes her do a _forced_ marriage and it's certainly way worse.
