* Bowser historically has [[EvilVersusEvil despised other villains]], so how was [[MadScientist Dr. Eggman]] able to win him over and [[VillainousFriendship become his friend]]? Eggman has [[EvenEvilHasStandards his values of villainy]] that match up very well with Bowser's. Eggman can also relate to him ''very'' well in terms of evil plans, they both want to TakeOverTheWorld, they have [[AFatherToHisMen minions they actually care about]], serve as fathers to their creations, and are extremely hammy and like to show out with more grandiose plans, and [[EvilVersusOblivion shun]] [[WhyDontYouJustShootHim pure brutality]]. And, while they both hate Super Mario and Sonic the Hedgehog (and especially both of them together), they have a [[VillainRespect grudging respect]] [[WorthyOpponent for them]].

* How did Donkey Kong, of all people, fix up E-123 Omega in the 3DS version of ''London 2012?'' He carried him all the way to one of [[GadgeteerGenius Funky Kong's]] workshops, and Omega either didn't realize or [[HeroicComedicSociopath care enough]] to make the distinction between the Kongs.

* Bowser Jr. and Metal Sonic, who both became playable in ''Mario & Sonic at the Olympic Winter Games'', have a few parallels.
** Bowser Jr. is an [[JackOfAllStats All-Around type]], like Mario, but he's Bowser's [[UndyingLoyalty incredibly loyal]] and [[VagueAge most likely rather young]] son, and he spent most of his debut as Mario's CriminalDoppelganger thanks to a (most likely magical) disguise.
** Meanwhile, Metal Sonic is a [[FragileSpeedster Speed type]], like Sonic, but he's Eggman's [[AIIsACrapshoot somewhat treacherous]] creation (or rebellious teenage son) built as an EvilKnockoff of Sonic.

* Donkey Kong and Vector are rivals in these games. What are the main enemies in the first three VideoGame/DonkeyKongCountry games? The Kremlings, which are crocodiles just like Vector.
** Seems further implied since Vector is represented by K. Rool in [[VideoGame/SuperSmashBrosUltimate the Chaotix’ spirit battle]].
* Why does Sonic simply not reach the finish line within seconds? He's only running at a fraction of his top speed so that everyone else has a chance of winning.
** But then why isn't Shadow winning all of the races effortlessly, considering he's depicted in the Sonic series as being [[WorthyOpponent one of the few beings (if not the only one) who can go toe-to-toe with Sonic in a race]]? He's doing it because beating Sonic when he's holding back wouldn't mean much.
*** I would have thought it has something to do with jet boots probably being banned.

* The two Dream Events in ''Tokyo 2020'' are based not only on Olympic Events, but also their home series. The Dream Racing event in [[VideoGame/SonicForces Metropolis]] is Skateboarding meets ''VideoGame/SonicRiders'', while the Dream Karate in [[VideoGame/SuperMarioOdyssey the Mushroom Kingdom ]] is Karate meets ''VideoGame/MarioParty''.

Except the modern games depict Sonic as being able to reach high speeds rather quickly, both in cutscene & gameplay.


*** I would have thought it has something to do with jet boots probably being banned.
** Alternatively, the races are too short for Sonic to reach full speed. He's always had rather poor acceleration, so his games feel more momentum-based.
