Mario Universe... Or Universes?

Hi guys! This is going to be our first videogame theory! Yay? Spoiler alert for Galaxy 2, even though I haven't actually played the game.

So you've probably wondered what's up with the relationships in the Mario Universe. One minute Bowser's kidnapping Peach, the next she's inviting him to parties and to golf tournaments. You'd think that after the 10th time she'd learn to stop inviting him to these sorts of do's.

Unless... they're not the same Peach and Bowser.

It would also explain the way that Bowser Jr and the Koopalings disappear and reappear at will, so in some games they own their own pads, and the others they seemingly don't even exist. Because they're not in the same universe each time.

Wait. What?

Remember the end of Galaxy 2, when Rosalina did the magic doodads and turned it into a new universe where everyone shared one planet. This shows one thing. There's more than one universe, and each can be different. Wait. That's two things. Eh.

So it's not a leap to say that there might be some universes where Bowser just gets far too into the Peach kidnapping thing and does it over and over and over... seriously Bowser needs to get a hobby that isn't princess kidnapping.

Would probably be better for his health.
And one where they're just pals from neighbouring kingdoms that get invitations for Mario's parties or for go karting or golf or football... is there a universe where Mario actually does plumbing? Maybe. Probably not, being as he seems to do any other thing but actual plumbing.

This could also be used to explain easter eggs, such as Link deciding to just casually take a nap in Mario RPG. It's just an alternate universe.

We could even take it a step further...

Every single copy of a single game is its own universe.

Not every copy of every game gets completed, whilst some get done in hours. These can't exist in the same universe, so there must be separate ones for every copy of the game, heck every save file to make everyone's game experience the 'real' one.

And somewhere out there there's a load of universe where Peach is still waiting for her Mario...

Aww...
