10!! ''Platformers'' provides examples of:
11* AdaptationalJerkass:
12** [[DownplayedTrope Downplayed]] with Mario. In his home series, he was always a NiceGuy, never letting his accomplishments get the best of him. In ''Platformers'', he is still a nice person, but he does sometimes give in to his ego every now and then.
13** While L.O.G. has always been a {{Jerkass}} in ''Banjo-Kazooie: Nuts & Bolts'', he's more of a JerkWithAHeartOfGold. Here, he is an even ''bigger'' asshole, often getting himself into heated debates with the other Galaxy Council members.
14* AllThereInTheManual: The backstories of the Platformers and the Galaxy Council are found in their respective character galleries.
15* BenevolentConspiracy: The Galaxy Council, formed by various deities or otherwise people in higher standing from the Platformers' home worlds, is staunchly on the side of the Platformers themselves. Their members include [[VideoGame/PaperMario Eldstar]], [[VideoGame/Rayman2TheGreatEscape Polokus]], [[VideoGame/SuperMarioGalaxy Rosalina]], [[VideoGame/BanjoKazooieNutsAndBolts L.O.G.]], [[VideoGame/{{Klonoa}} the High Priestess and the Queen of Cress]].
16* MassiveMultiplayerCrossover: Let's see... The main protagonists are [[Franchise/SuperMarioBros Mario, Luigi, Princess Peach]], [[Franchise/SonicTheHedgehog Sonic]], [[VideoGame/CrashBandicoot Crash]], VideoGame/{{Rayman}}, [[VideoGame/BanjoKazooie Banjo, Kazooie]], VideoGame/{{Shantae}} and VideoGame/{{Klonoa}}.
17* OfficialCouple: Mario/Peach.
18* OlderThanTheyLook: The High Priestess is about 60 years old, but she looks no older than a young adult.
19* ReallySevenHundredYearsOld:
20** Rayman is stated to be over 100 years old, but his mental age is 23.
21** Rosalina is an immortal being and likely lived for several hundred years, but she has the mental and physical age of a young adult.
