10 Biggest WTF Moments In Super Mario Games

9. Peach's Vibe Scepter

While not a main series game, it was impossible to leave charming Mario spin-off Super Princess Peach off this list €“ especially since it's the first game to ever feature Peach as the main playable character.

The story of the game is simple. Tired of constant thwarting, Bowser kidnaps Mario, Luigi and Toad, holding the heroes prisoner on Vibe Island by using an item known as a Vibe Scepter (an object that can be used to change people's moods).

After a standard amount of adventuring through eight worlds, Peach rescues the brothers and finally beats Bowser herself, after which players are met with a very peculiar epilogue:

The Vibe Scepter has strange and mysterious powers, that's for sure... One thing about that scepter: no one knows who created it or why, but... Somewhere, someone might possibly be using it right now... ...What? Your dad got mad at you the other day, you say? Your mom's been laughing happily a lot? Maybe... Just maybe... The Vibe Scepter is hidden away in your house somewhere.

Wait... is that implying... okay yeah, it totally is. Don't believe me? There's more proof further along through this list, but just check out the scene for yourself.
