Line 23:
* [[The End of the World as We Know It]]: Bowser's grand scheme is to set of a bunch of Hair Driers at the South Pole melting all the polar ice caps and flooding the world.
* [[Everything's Better with Penguins]]: Reading newspapers will bring up news stories about penguins ending up in different parts of the world due to Bowser melting the south pole.
* [[Evil Sounds Deep]]: Larry and Iggy have bizarrely deep voices: Larry sounds less like a trouble-making brat and more like a demon, and Iggy sounds almost ''exactly'' like [[Star Wars|Darth goddamned Vader]].
* [[Exactly What It Says on the Tin]]: Mario ''is'' missing, after all. It's the only thing that makes sense about this game.
* [[Excited Show Title!]]
Line 28 ⟶ 29:
* [[Family-Unfriendly Death]]: One version of the game has Bowser get cracked in half after being frozen in a block of ice.
* [[Fun with Acronyms]]: The Koopas and Luigi travel across the world using a machine found in Bowser's castle called the "[[Exactly What It Says on the Tin|PORTALS]]", or "Passcode Operated Remote Transport And Larceny System".
* [[Getting Crap Past the Radar]]: One of the short videos you can watch in the PC version prominently features a cable car with a "GET BENT!" slogan plastered on its sides. Not the kind of thing that would raise most people's eyebrows, save for those familiar with crude lingo, in which case it's basically another way of saying "Get Fucked!"
* [[Goofy Print Underwear]]: Bowser, as shown by the ending.
* [[Impossible Thief]]: In addition to stealing Mario, the Koopas go around stealing from national landmarks, which Luigi has to retrieve in order to complete each level. What they've stolen varies. Sometimes they steal something really huge, but other times you'd think they'd be able to get by just fine without. (Just a single brick from the Wall of China and you're closing it down?)
* [[Insurmountable Waist-Height Fence]]: The exits back to Bowser's Castle are blocked off by a Pokey. The player has to figure out where in the world they actually are in order to get Yoshi to come and eat the Pokey so they can leave the stage.
