Hello, I'm Nario, with a subname in most places, most commonly NarioSM8! This is a place to know what I do here, where to see me on social media and have tropes about myself. If you want to see planned pages in progress by me, go and look at the Sandbox page instead by the button above.
Works that I often see on TV Tropes
- Party Crashers
- A lot of other Nintendo content creators do fit here. I cannot be bothered to list them.
- Life SMP (Currently the only thing I help edit for)
- Jet Lag: The Game
- Mario Party
- Wii Party
- Party Project (Launched)
- A whole lot of games shows does fits here, really; mainly Who Wants to Be a Millionaire? & Taskmaster.
- Tom Scott
Outdated stuff:
tropes about me
- Bait-and-Switch: On 25 December, 2023, Strix
posted a picture, asking what sin did Strix do
, either 'Posted on DeviantArt', or 'Raid: Shadow Legends'. Then this conversation happens:

Nario: ...Raycons! - Big "WHAT?!": My reaction when I saw an email about me getting a gift sub for King of Skill's Twitch channel. It might not be listed here, until you get the context behind it.
- Blatant Lies: On this post
in Bluesky, I said that I will stop playing Tetris for a bit. Guess what I played the very next day.
- Broken Pedestal: I once dreamed of learning how to play the BOXX controller for Super Smash Bros. Melee, however, the most dumb thing I saw then looking at the Smash Wiki about it was the Nerf to Kirby (one of my mains), one of the worst character and happens to by my primary main, which the nerf stopped you from double jumping without turning. Sure, it was for Jigglypuff and Kirby is so close to them, but that still made me forget about the BOXX as the controller I should use for Melee.
- Contrasting Replacement Character:
- My Party Project mains is different from each other. They are Knight (the only main pre-v0.95) and Colin/iAnimate38. The difference between those characters is one is a Knight in Shining Armor, while one is a editor for Youtubers.
- Pre-v0.97.1 in Party Project, I had a crew of CPUs I always play against. The main ones that was always there was Maphee and Bracket, however, the third CPU changes. Originally, it was Sue, then switched to golf (Yes, that is how you type their name), then right before the update v0.97.1, I was thinking of switching to Strix, but I didn't play a game for Strix to become the third CPU in time. The difference between those characters is that Sue is a normal human girl, golf is a very goofy guy and Strix is a wizard bird.
- My Super Smash Bros. main is Kirby, however, I have secondary mains just in case, like Marth.
- Didn't Think This Through: I stopped sharing my Google Docs with my game ideas, because I realised that Google Docs showed what my Gmail was if you looked at the 'Share' menu.
- Fandom Heresy:
- I like Mario Party so much that I even like the Car Era of Mario Party.
- I also like Kirby, but you also can't get me to like Kirby Air Ride or any game made by Shinichi Shimomura/Dark Matter Trilogy, at least compared to the other Kirby games.
- I just don't like games with story much. I am looking at you two. This is really a big deal for the second game, since that is my second 3D Mario I 100% (first being Super Mario 64).
- Then I ranked Season 6 of Jet Lag: The Game (Capture The Flag Across Japan) as the only S Tier season in my Jet Lag tier list video, alongside ranking Season 5 (Race To The End Of The World) very low, most of the comments on that video is flaming me for my opinion on Jet Lag (mostly to the former).
- Harsher in Hindsight: In Jan-Feb, 2024, I made comments on both yuzu stuff, with me talking about Log
being on yuzu on Discord
, and talking to Strix about them playing Tomodachi Life on Citra, even being the top quote on this very page for February 2024. Both of them are now gone in early March 2024, due to a lawsuit from Nintendo, though they lives by... other ways.
- I Knew It!: I made a post on Bluesky
that has me betting that Mumbo was going to die in Day 5 in Wild Life SMP, due to the trend of him getting killed an episode early every season (Day 7 in Last Life SMP, Day 6 in Secret Life SMP, since the trend). Unfortunately for me, as someone who watches his POV, he indeeds dies that day, though I found out about it by just looking at TVTropes for some quick infomation.
Nario
: NEVER LOOK AT ANYTHING THEN YOU DON'T WANT TO BE SPOILED
I WAS LIKE, I WILL QUICKLY LOOK AT INFOMATION QUICKLY AND NOW I HATE MYSELF - Ironic Nickname: Despite where my nickname came from, my favourite Mario character is Luigi, not Mario.
Nario's old discord bio: [[Irony]]: NarioSM8's fav character is Luigi, not Mario.
- Mood Whiplash: Namedropped in the description of my Wii Party video.
The description of 'Wii Party shows my bad luck': Board Game Island and Swap Meet. One is based on dice, and the other, a weird version of Poker. I get Mood Whiplash at both modes in this video.
- My Nayme Is: Since my name being based on Mario, and some people who is called Mario (duh, why did Nintendo name Mario, Mario then), people do say my name as Mario instead of Nario.
- One time, one of the Party Crashers' editor got my old Twitch name (NarioMine) as 'MineMario'. As soon as that happen, I changed my Twitch name to NarioSM8 after.
- Only Known by Their Nickname: I do not disclose my real name and go as my nickname (Nario) instead.
- Periphery Demographic: Unlike other people, I don't treat TV Tropes as a wiki as much as I treat it as a fun place to be until a few months in 2024, so things like images being removed or pages that would had being in TV Tropes Will Ruin Your Life or Broken Pedestal was removed then I realised why it happened in the first place. (Remember; I found TV Tropes as a place I go to because of the Party Crashers, not the tropes themself)
- Play the Game, Skip the Story: No matter if it's a video game, or other medias, I don't care about the lore of it too much. Subverted in some places where it makes sense, like books and the Life SMP 'Eyes and Ears'' thing.
- Real Life Writes the Plot: Some videos of mine was canned after some stuff in real life kills the video for good. The main reason for such is OBS not recording or using the wrong scene, as with my first 'Chaos Mode' video (replaced with the first 'this was a bad idea' video), my first Minecraft video and the The Murder of Sonic the Hedgehog video (replaced by the video it was replacing, the mainline Mario tier list).
- I had a family holiday for Christmas 2024. Guess why 3 videos are removed from Season Two now? (More exactly; the cutting Smash characters video didn't go well and I wanted for it to be a scripted video during it and I didn't feel like editing an old video this early makes sense. The Chaos Mode video was just combined with the New Years Special, as a normal Party Project session was just done and edited at the time).
- TV Tropes Will Ruin Your Life: I have edit in times I should not be, like at midnight. And yes, I had a lot of TVTropes tabs open at once at one point before moving to present day, if only because to save my computer from RAM and meltdown issues (at least not commonly.)
- Screwed by the Network: In May, 2024, I had my Youtube advanced features, just gone, even after 2.5 years of making the channel and it being the most active it's ever been. This causes a lot of issues for me, like links in videos no longer working and not been able to pin comments, and can only get it back (without giving Google more data than it needs) in 2 months. This leads all videos that I was going to make being delayed and making tier list videos as Filler.
- Self-Imposed Challenge: While I have done some on Youtube, this will only list the ones that I have done outside of the platform.
- I once did a challenge in pre-v0.9 Party Project's Koopa's Tycoon Town, where my goal was to get every building, using the 'Stars To Win' feature. The game was showcased in a Twitter thread
.
- An another session of Party Project was made into a challenge, this time, a Raid Boss kind. However, since in v0.95.21, there was no handicap, as that was added the next update, I instead had to try and not get last against the very unfair "Brutal EX" CPUs. I won the challenge by getting second place, and the game result screen is here
◊. This game was notably being streamed on the Party Project discord server with "MarioTheGre" being there for the game, due to us already played a game of Party Project via Parsec before this challenge.
- I once did a challenge in pre-v0.9 Party Project's Koopa's Tycoon Town, where my goal was to get every building, using the 'Stars To Win' feature. The game was showcased in a Twitter thread
- Viewer Gender Confusion: More exactly, Player Gender Confusion. As shown in a Party Project game, I did not know of Bracket being a girl before choosing her as a CPU mainstay. The only reason that I knew is because if her sticker, which CPUs did not use until I had both already went to use other characters as the CPUs, saw people say her instead of he, or other playings of Party Project with other people online. Since no-one has corrected me about that, it is now stuck to my brain.
Nario during editing
: Yes, I said he. I used her as a CPU before learning her gender.
- You Have GOT to Be Kidding Me!: Two in January, 2025.
- Tom Scott being the guest of Season 13 of Jet Lag: The Game. I am not kidding
, both to the fact, and how shocked and happy I was.
Nario: YOU HAVE TO BE KIDDING ME- Nintendo Switch 2. At midnight. And everything around it also had some reactions as well. There is a whole thread on it now.
Nario: WHAT WHAT WHAT WHAT WHAT WHAT WHAT WHAT WHAT WHAT WHAT WHAT WHAT WHAT WHAT WHAT WHAT WHAT WHAT WHAT WHAT WHAT WHAT WHAT WHAT WHAT WHAT WHAT WHAT WHAT WHAT WHAT WHAT WHAT WHAT WHAT WHAT WHAT WHAT WHAT WHAT WHAT WHAT WHAT WHAT WHAT WHAT WHAT WHAT WHAT WHAT WHAT WHAT WHAT WHAT WHAT WHAT WHAT WHAT WHAT {That was 60 whats from me in a row, btw. would had done more if not only because of Bluesky's character limit.}
Nario: NEW MARIO KART WTF

Nario: [...] SOOOO HAPPY THAT IT IS COMING OUT THIS YEAR THOUGH. TIME TO SAVE UP FOR THAT!
Nario: [...] {Talking about the Nintendo Switch 2 Experience that was shown on the website} 2) YES I WILL BE LOOKING OUT TO FIND A WAY THERE WITHOUT BREAKING MY WHOLE LIFE. - Tom Scott being the guest of Season 13 of Jet Lag: The Game. I am not kidding
