1	[[WMG: Mario's Castle]]
2	"Mario Land," including the castle on it, were given to Mario as a way of saying thank you, from Toadstool and/or Daisy. After he got it back from Wario, however, he realized he didn't need a whole island to rule or a big castle to live in to be happy, which is why in future games we see him living in a small house; given his blue-collar roots, he likely finds it much more comfortable.
3	** The house on the island is too gigantic for Mario to call home either. It really gives the impression the location is part of [[MacroZone Giant Land]]. Inconvenient for the brothers in the Mushroom Kingdom to commute back and forth to daily.
4	** Perhaps that's why we don't see Wario's castle after ''VideoGame/WarioWorld''. Wario only wanted a castle bigger than Mario's to make him jealous, and once Mario traded in his castle for a modest house in the Mushroom Kingdom, Wario decided there was no point to owning a castle anymore and moved to Diamond City. Or he lost his castle when he couldn't be bothered to save more than ten Spritelings and had to move anyway.

6	[[WMG: Mario Land is a theme park]]
7	Think about it: six main areas surrounding a castle in the center. [[Ride/DisneyThemeParks Seem familiar?]]
8	** Might even be the same "Mario Land" we see in the intro to ''Mario Party 2''. Incidentally, Wario tried to seize control of that one as well.
9	** They even have some of the same themes: space, water, horror...
10	** It would explain why Mario has a "castle" in this one, but lives in a small house with his brother in all other games. It was never "his castle" to begin with, it's just the central attraction of the Mario Land Theme Park.

12	[[WMG: Mario Land is home to a giant]]
13	No coincidence the island has a massive house with a functional kitchen, a large pumpkin patch, a towering tree with its tops in the clouds, and a Mario wind-up toy. Mario Land is the residence of someone big. ''[[OurGiantsAreBigger Very big.]]''
14	** Possibly a rabbit, as the Bunny Mario power-up was the gimmick of this game.
15	** The manuals/overworld show the hippo that helps you to Space Zone is huge, maybe he was meant to be the giant? Would explain how his [[SnotBubble bubbles]] are able to get Mario into outer space. But couldn't be shown in-game, due to the technical limitations of the Game Boy.
16	*** Its FridgeBrilliance if the giant's the hippo, as the cave system to MacroZone shrinks Mario down to bug-size. Whereas the giant would shrink down to ''normal size'' to fit inside the house.
