History VideoGame / HotelMario

** "You know what they say, all toasters toast ''Toast!''"
** "I hope she made lotsa ''Spaghetti!''"

* DepartmentOfRedundancyDepartment: "You know what they say, all toasters toast Toast!"

** [[Music/TheRollingStonesBand "Hey you! Get offa my cloud!"]] (which, according to an interview with voice actor Marc Graue, was actually ad-libbed). There's also the hotel names (see the HurricaneOfPuns entry above).

One of four UsefulNotes/PhilipsCDi games with Creator/{{Nintendo}} characters resulting from a deal between Nintendo and Philips. This deal would have led to Philips making a [[UsefulNotes/{{SNESCDROM}} disc-based add-on]] for the [[UsefulNotes/SuperNintendoEntertainmentSystem SNES]], but it fell through. Philips was left with a license allowing them to release games with some of Nintendo's characters. So they made this, and ''[[VideoGame/TheLegendOfZeldaCDiGames three Zelda games]]''.

* CanonDiscontinuity: The game was not published by Nintendo, and they don't acknowledge it whenever they discuss all the Mario games.

* OffModel: Neither as blatant nor hideous as those in ''[[VideoGame/TheLegendOfZeldaCDiGames The Faces of Evil]]'' and ''[[VideoGame/TheLegendOfZeldaCDiGames The Wand of Gamelon]]'', but you can still spot a few of these shots if you watch the cutscenes carefully. In almost every other shot of Mario, he's drawn with an inexplicable amount of flab. Luigi fares only marginally better. [[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=ZHxHgdP6uFM Just watch...]]

* StupidStatementDanceMix: [[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=O36f1p8QSaw Big Beat Mario.]] The best part? The mix gets most of its background music ''from the actual game''.

* CanonDiscontinuity: The game was not published by Nintendo, and they don't acknowledge it whenever they discuss all the Mario games\.

The [[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Y1TMazBwFSg game's cutscenes]] were made by Animation Magic, done using the same style of animation used for ''Zelda: The Wand of Gamelon'', ''Link: The Faces of Evil'', and ''VideoGame/MutantRampageBodySlam''.

* CanonDiscontinuity: Managed to achieve this trope in a series where [[NegativeContinuity EVERYTHING is canon]]. That's quite a feat.

* ChestMonster: Yes, some of those pennies ''do'' pinch back.

* TheDragon: Iggy, the only Koopaling not to have a hotel of his own.

* LethalLavaLand: ''Bowser's Seizures Palace Hotel'' is as close as it gets. The whole place appears to be on fire.

* TheLostWoods: Morton's Wood Door Hysteria Hotel. Okay, so it's just one tree, but still...

* MadeOfExplodium: Larry's Cave Hotel explodes for no apparent reason, sending the Princess flying out.

** Mario and Luigi break the fourth wall a few times too many. "We gotta find the Princess! [[ThePlayerIsTheMostImportantResource And YOU gotta help us!]]" "It's hard to see through those clouds. I hope we can get rid of them! Get the hint?"

* PiggyBank: A ''huge'' one appears in a hidden cutscene in Wendy's Blitz Snarlton Hotel. Seeing this cutscene somehow gets rid of the penny enemies.
* ProjectileToast: Occurs in the toasters scene.

* SeenItAll: Mario's response to the Princess suddenly vanishing after rescuing her? "It's been one of those days."
* ShockAndAwe: Ludwig's choice of attacks.

* SlippySlideyIceWorld: Larry's Chillton Hotel.

* SlapstickKnowsNoGender: Half the time, Princess Toadstool gets whisked away to the next hotel like this. She even gets ''blown out of a mine'' at one point!

--> '''[[BewareTheNiceOnes Luigi]]:''' "Well maybe a Koopa will lend us his, if we ''persuade'' him."

-->-- '''[[MemeticMutation The intro cutscene.]]''' You're probably thinking, "What enclosed instruction book?", if you're using an emulator.

* HeyYou: "[[Music/TheRollingStones Get offa my cloud!]]"

** [[Music/TheRollingStones "Hey you! Get offa my cloud!"]] (which, according to an interview with voice actor Marc Graue, was actually ad-libbed). There's also the hotel names (see the HurricaneOfPuns entry above).

* DeadlyEuphemism: After Mario [[MemeticMutation (infamously)]] says they don't have a light for a dark cave, [[LovableCoward Luigi of]] [[NiceGuy all people]] suggests this.

* EverybodyCallsHimBarkeep: The Princess. She is neither called Princess Peach nor Princess Toadstool in-game, just "the Princess".

[[TheStinger ''Aha, here's the problem: Too many tropers! You know what they say:]] [[CaptainObvious All tropers trope tropes!'']]

* AllThereInTheManual: "If you need instructions on how to get through the hotels, check out the enclosed instruction book!"

--> '''[[BewareTheNiceOnes Luigi]]:''' "Maybe a Koopa will lend us one, if we ''persuade'' him to."

--> '''[[BewareTheNiceOnes Luigi]]:''' "Maybe a Koopa will lend us one (A light), if we ''persuade'' him to."

* ImpliedDeathThreat: "Maybe a Koopa will lend us one (A light), if we ''persuade'' him to." This is said by [[LovableCoward Lui]][[NiceGuy gi]] by the way.
