History WMG / NewSuperMarioBrosU

[[WMG: The Shy Guy / Nabbit Conspiracy]]

* The system starts off in Mario Kart 8. In Shy Guy Falls, numerous Shy Guys can be seen mining and collecting materials. But nobody really knows why. The materials that they harvest are then sent to Dr. E. Gadd from Luigi's Mansion. I also noticed that Twisted Mansion, the haunted house themed track from Mario Kart 8) comes just before Shy Guy Falls. E. Gadd uses these materials to create robotic replicas of the main Mario characters. This is why we see characters like Metal Mario and Pink Gold Peach in the more recent Mario Kart games. Nabbit, along with the Shy Guys, also collects materials for these robots, however Nabbit finds the ones that are much harder to get hold of (e.g. 1-up mushrooms and super mushrooms.) This is why Nabbit is always stealing things in New Super Mario Bros.U. Nabbit is also a spy. In New Super Luigi U, Nabbit tags along with Luigi and the Toads, to spy on them and collect information about them. Remember the [[spoiler: secret island from NSMBU, the one with stats about Mario's adventures]] it looked like it was probably Nabbit's house (there were lots of power-ups and bags in the background.) If Nabbit is a spy like this theory proposes then that's why he has statistics about Mario in his house. Once Nabbit has collected information about Mario, he can report back to E. Gadd. E. Gadd can then use this information to program the robots. Eventually, the robots will outnumber the main characters and will kill all of the human characters.
[[WMG: One level will take place in Princess Peach's Castle.]]

* [[spoiler: Kind of confirmed. You have an airship level after World 7's Castle, followed by 6 levels in world 8, the last TWO actually inside the castle.]]
[[WMG: There will be more hidden in this game than has been revealed so far.]]

** [[spoiler: These two were kinda confirmed. Beating all eight secret levels unlocked... one more level. As a Call Back to ''World'' is that they're in the middle of the Star Road looking secret area. But unlocking it also gives you one of the Save File Stars!]]

[[WMG: Nabbit is a [[VideoGame/RavingRabbids Rabbid]]]]
* Come on, it makes sense. One of World 2's Toads even calls him a weirdo.

[[WMG: The [[spoiler: Secret Toad House]]...]]...belongs to Monita. She's been following Nintendo characters for years, [[spoiler: and analyzing them on their adventures]] allowed her to create Nintendo Land. The [[spoiler: Secret Toad House]] is her current home base, explaining the [[spoiler: billboard full of data on what you've done]].
* Or Nintendo Land could have been [[VideoGame/KirbysReturnToDreamLand Magolor's]] creation and the [[spoiler: Records Toad House]] is his research center.
[[WMG: Nabbit is a Toad.]]

* And the [[spoiler: Record Toad House on Secret Island]] is his. Heck, it's filled to the brim with stuff he stole! The question is, [[spoiler: why does he keep all those records about you?]] Know thy enemy, perhaps?
* As if that wasn't enough, [[spoiler: the Record Toad House also has what looks like Nabbit's silhouette, which could imply that this is indeed his home.]]

[[WMG: Nabbit was intended to be a non-rabbit character in costume, but this dropped after New Super Mario Bros. Wii U]]
* In his original appearance, Nabbit never blinks or gives any indication those big eyes of his are real. His ears and tail also never move, and his body has a distinct costume shape--very rounded and ill-defined with fabric texturing. It's not hard to imagine anyone being in that costume: a toad, a yoshi, maybe Bowser Junior or some other koopa. As he began to appear in more titles, however, there have been more and more indications that Nabbit really is a rabbit, although probably still wearing a costume of some kind. His eyes began to look less and less painted on, and he even began to blink, showing he has eye lids that don't match the color of the surrounding purple head. He also began to move his ears in ways that indicate he really does have long bunny-like ears, and his perfectly rounded head has gradually become more angled with what appears to be a rabbit-like snout hidden just out of view. Several screenshots from Super Smash Bros show that he appears to have a chin hidden under his bandanna instead of having a {{Cephalothorax}} like his original body shape would suggest. The lower half of his body, however, is still very costume-like, especially in games with modern graphics like Mario And Sonic Rio 2016 where the purple 'skin' looks very much like baggy fabric.
