Hello, one and all! My name is Starry Parakarry, but you can just call me Pakky or Jake. Some of you may know me from Youtube as Gamerboy1102 or from fanfiction as DivineJudgment! Anyway, I just recently started here on the wiki, so if I make a couple errors, please cut me some slack. I haven't played a whole lot of the older classic Mario games, but I HAVE played the original <i> Donkey Kong </I> game. I mostly play the Mario spin-offs, mainly Mario Kart, Baseball and Strikers but I do play Super Mario 64, Sunshine and Galaxy!

'''Mario Kart: Rush Hour'''
 
I think we're definitely going to have another Mario Kart, but this time, I think we could have karts, bikes, rollerblades/skates and skateboards! Each vehicle would have ups and downs! Karts would have double Mini Turbos and have good drifting with bad acceleration and would be generally slow, Bikes can wheelie and have good acceleration but they have bad cornering, Skates are incredibly fast but has bad traction, skateboards are able to grind on rails but have low acceleration.
 
'''Baby Bros: Cheep Cheep Charge'''
 
Basically, it would be a story about the two Baby Mario Bros. Basically, adult Mario and Luigi are at home until Parakarry (^_^) delivers a message from their old pal, Sushie. She says she needs them and she needs them now. The two travel to Lavalava Island and meet Sushie. She takes them into a chamber where one of the Merlons used to live, and they find that the sorcerer/ess left all of their spellbooks, myths, etc. Sushie tells the bros. of the legend of the Age of Chaotic Cheep- an age ruled by demonic Cheep Cheeps. A prophecy says that if certain conditions are met, the chaotic king will be revived, and the world will be sent into darkness. Sushie, noticing the certain requirements being met,  then sends the Bros. back in time to prevent the king from ever ruling. Then, yeah! Sorry this was long!

Hello, one and all! My name is Starry Parakarry, but you can just call me Pakky or Jake. Some of you may know me from Youtube as Gamerboy1102 or from fanfiction as DivineJudgment! Anyway, I just recently started here on the wiki, so if I make a couple errors, please cut me some slack. I haven't played a whole lot of the older classic Mario games, but I HAVE played the original Donkey Kong game. I mostly play the Mario spin-offs, mainly Mario Kart, Baseball and Strikers but I do play Super Mario 64, Sunshine and Galaxy!
