An accurate Mercator projection of SMO's planet

This map spans 380 degrees (yes, 380, you can see the west coast of Metro Kingdom and some of the Lost Archipelago twice) across the planet seen in Super Mario Odyssey from 70°N to 70°S.

How did you make this ?

So I first borrowed the grid of the main meridians and circles of latitude from this map, then used this model scrapped from the game and available on the Models Resource to place the circles of latitude properly. I also had to strech the texture vertically to get it working.

After that, I painstakingly drew the shapes of the continents with Inkscape (12k+ nodes placed by hand, send help).

For the north coast of Snow Kingdom, which isn't visible on the source image, I used another texture from the Odyssey's miniature globe, although that image wasn't really detailed, so the north coast of Snow Kingdom can be left at interpretation. What I did was close to the original.

What is the scale of this map ?

Te scale of this map is 1px:10km, so assuming SMO's earth is the same size as real life Earth (about 40 000 km in circumference), this image is 4000 px wide (a bit more because again, it spans 380 degrees).

Can I use this map as a base for my mapping projects ?

You can download and use the original SVG file here. Credit is not necessary but still appreciated.

Thank you to those who read through the entire post, and have fun with this map !

Fawful controls Kamek

I have a big juicy about Mario. The character mostly talking about in the series is kamek=fawful: after fawful dead, he created something that made him control kamek. This takes place after kamek takes care of the baby junior fawful gets inside of kamek's mind and controls kamek now you're probably wondering if that's true then why doesn't fawful just kill Bowser well he's going to need to be quick and quiet but he knows that he makes a mistake he's going to be permanently gone so that's why he obeys every command that Bowser says just know that this is just a fan Theory that I created

Could Bowser, K. Rool, Syrup and Wart canonically work together?

Reasons that it's not possible

  1. Besides not liking each other, Bowser seeks territorial expansion while K. Rool seeks territorial destruction. Thats how I interpret K. Rool's statements in Bonanza

  2. K. Rool's hatred of humans in addition to him and Syrup being rival pirates

  3. Wart and Syrup seeing Bowser and K. Rool's secondary goals (primary being defeating the bros and the kongs) as possible threat to their respective territories

  4. Syrup not being on the level of malice that the other three are. She wants to be rich and beat Wario, continue to rule Kitchen Island nothing else.

  5. Bowser not wanting to be upstaged which you can see K. Rool doing and that ego getting in the way of planning

Why it's possible

The enemy of my enemy is my friend but that only goes so far and if the four somehow won. It could unravel very quickly or end up a snatching defeat from the jaws of victory at the 11th hour.

Where does the idea of Wishes being stored in the Dream Depot come from?

In charts of the process of how the Wish System works, I see this claim that all the Wishes are stored in the Dream Depot before they're either granted or ignored. Where exactly does this come from?

How powerful is the Super Star from the Super Mario franchise?

What I have seen everyone else mix up with the Super Star is that they mix up invincibility and immortality. The Super Star grants temporary invincibility, not immortality. Mario can still die even with the Super Star.

Can Boos and other ghosts endure the light?

In some games when they are outside on a bright day, they're fine but in other games when they are hit by the light, they vanish.

Can I get Advice for my Mario Minecraft map of the mushroom kingdom?

I need help on where some places go right now a lot of stuff is just in random places because I’m not sure where to put them. Is there any website or something similar I should be looking at for help? Also I’m trying to add Luigi’s mansion from the original game but don’t know where to. I’m planning to make it so you have to go to the original site of the mansion and use a Time Machine to get to the mansion sense, to my knowledge the mansion gets replaced by the house luigi gets at some point.

Advice for my own map of the Mushroom Kingdom

I'm trying to make my own map of the Mushroom Kingdom/Greater Mario World, and I'm kinda stuck on where to start. Like it's such a big topic for an equally big franchise, it's that thing where you're just overwhelmed and can't find a good starting point y'know?

So I'm just asking for maybe some good starting tips. Should I like map out one game at a time and slowly build it up? Or maybe compile every location then sort them into biomes and go from there? And I know we got the (absolutely incredibly fascinating) resources, but I was hoping to come to a lot of my own conclusions, instead of just copying other's work.
