** A few of Mario's death sequences in Super Mario Galaxy, namely electrocuted into a skeleton, spaghettification and ''disintegrating''! |

** That one scene in ''[[Paper Mario: The Thousand-Year Door]]'' in which Hooktail eats all the Toads in the audience, and starts ''chewing them with her mouth open''. Sure, there's no blood or gore, but still, seeing numerous Toads getting chewed up while still alive is pretty disturbing. |

** In [[Super Mario World]] four of the seven Koopaling bosses are defeated by [[Kill It With Fire|tossing them into lava]]. While Iggy and Larry get [[killed offscreen]], Lemmy and Wendy are ''seen'' sinking into the lava and ''flailing''. In the Gameboy Advance version of the game, there is also a ''shrieking sound'' played during these scenes. And following their defeat, their castles (where the boss fights took place) get destroyed in various ways, leaving only debris or ''nothing at all''. One wonders how the Koopalings could [[Unexplained Recovery|come back]] in later games after these events. |

* Considering almost nobody ever really died in the previous games in the series, the death of Marquis de Singe in [[Tales of Monkey Island]] is kind of shocking. After his immortality elixir fails him, his wounds open up and he falls into his own machine that breaks matter into its particles and spreads them around the seas. The way his scream suddenly cuts off is... unsettling. |

** Almost immediately followed by this, and without warning, '''Guybrush''' is murdered by LeChuck. Thankfully he gets better. |
