You forgot one: *The* Lonely Goomba, that’s stuck between two pipes, who’s gaming for the rest of his life.

we need an every single piranha plant video

Bro I'm cryin'. We saw Goompa and didn't get anything on his backstory. For those not in the know, Goompa didn't just travel the land, he was a world-champion fighter and literally invented the Multibonk move. Furthermore, he TAUGHT the Master of the Dojo in Toad Town how to fight, and his wife Gooma taught Tayce T., the Master's sister, how to cook. There's a reason why Goompa is the one to teach Mario about the battle system in the prologue. He knows everything there is to know about it.

An interesting note about Galoombas is that they look more like chestnuts than Goombas do, and that's what Goombas are named after in Japanese. That, and the fact that they're on Dinosaur Island might imply that they're the ancestors of the modern Goomba

It always cracks me up when Carlito sums up these absolutely insane story synopses for obscure media. Like that Spores Von Fungenstein overview had me dying. Not a single beat missed while being accompanied by beautiful edits. Feels so simple, yet so effective.

As the Dean for the University of Goom, with a doctorate in Goombology, I appreciate you shining a light on our overlooked brethren. Long live the Goombas

As a certified goomba connoisseur I have to add on at 26:40 because the Goombario actually receives a letter not long after the fight where the Red and Blue goomba brothers write about how impressed they are by Goombario's strength and ask him to be their friend. Also, it is a crime to not go over Captain Goomba (Bowser's Minions) if you're looking for goombas that tell a story. Like you mentioned in the video, Private Goomp also appears in Bowser's Minions and ends up getting saved by Captain Goomba. Captain Goomba is literally the main character of Bowser's Minions, on top of having some extra lore in Inside Story Bowser Jr.'s Quest, so you've missed out on some juicy goomba lore.

My daughter is a hardcore Goomba-fan. She saw her first one as a toddler and lost her heart for good. I have no idea how much money we've spent on Goombas during these years (she has even the special ones), but I do know that her love for them has not dimished at all.

You mentioning our goomba kill-count makes me actually wonder what it could be. Like it's gotta be in the 10 thousands. We gotta add that to the afterlife stats.

My man earned a like simply for "University of Goom"

The Masked Ghoul being a Jason Voorhees reference in a Mario game shocked me. I wish we had more horror movie references in Mario games now.

2:30 So the thing is, in Japan, the Galoombas in SMW were always distinct from regular Goombas. In Japanese, the regular Goomba is "Kuribo," whereas, SMW's Galoomba is "Kuribon." It's just that when SMW was localized, this distinction was ignored, and Kuribon was just given the name Goomba, thus conflating the two species in the west. The change from "goomba" to "galoomba" in the english localization was not a retcon, but a correction of the localization. I dunno if somebody has already said this, but there's over 400 comments so I'm not going to look through them all to check. =P

fuck yea, time for some goomba appreciation

Thank you for addressing the Sergeant Guy gloss-over from the previous video. Most content creators would have just ignored the issue but you came clean and told his story. I respect that a lot.

The Goomba and Galoomba thing was only ever an issue in the lacalize version. The Japanese version of Super Mario World reffered to then with different name. They were called Kuribon intead of Kuribo. So it was less of a retcon and more the English version of the game correcting a localization mistake.

This should absolutely be a series. I would watch the hell out of every single koopa, etc.

I did always find it weird that there are two different Goomba types in the Mario Galaxy games. I always thought of the other one as a Goombo tbh. The only gameplay difference is the Goombo explodes into a coin when spun, and the Goomba twirls on its head and can then be kicked for Star bits. Also, if you’re counting Octoombas, then you missed the three variations on that, being Elite Octoombas, Octoguys, and Octoboo.

Goombario was an interesting character because it was my first contact with the fact that goombas aren't just minions to Bowser, some of them can just do their things and stuff and not care with Bowser, as a kid I was surprised

Listen. I don’t want to point fingers at my favorite Goomba, but I will say it goes chugga chugga

I am soooo depressed you missed my favorite goomba variant. The mini-goomba. While on the surface, the mini-goomba may just looks like a regular goomba only slightly smaller and occasionally with a yellow coloring, what's interesting about these guys is they are the only creature in the mario multiverse _outside of the burrbos_ that are CONFIRMED to not have a soul (which is why they cannot be captured in mario odyssey). Please pin so everyone can know about this awesome goomba variant.

While they're classified under "just a really big goomba" and only a footnote in the video, I would still like to draw attention to the Chuboombas from Bowser's Inside Story. They're big lads with Lolipops, but the interesting thing is that using Bowser's Inhale ability on them will cause him to steal their candy and eat it to restore his health... which also causes the Chuboomba to run away crying. This is arguably one of the most diabolical things that bowser can do, and undoubtedly will make the player feel like a heartless bastard.

Another detail about the Jack o Goomba. They can tank one hit from Starman Mario These dudes have a super insane pumpkin helmet they are able to survive one strike from one of the most unstoppable forces in the series

Goombas are the best species ever. *Change my mind.*

I can’t believe you glanced over the Goombrat’s behavior! Turning around at ledges, they’re the Red Koopa equivalent of Goombas, as well as Goombuds to Galoombas. Otherwise, very informative Goomba lore 👌

Strollin' Stu is practically a crossbreed between a Goomba and one of the Stus from Yoshi's Island.

The super Mario world goombas are interesting. They even appeared in the party series and mainline Mario games along time after advance. At least they returned after some years. Great

Goombella was one of my childhood crushes. Thank you TTYD

I was about to rage at the blasphemous lack of Chuboomba in this beautiful video, but you came through at the buzzer

Been waiting for this one ngl, Goomba variations have fascinated me for a long time

Dude, you have a real knack for these videos. Your descriptions for these characters are so funny. I look forward to your videos

The original Goomba sprite took up just as much space as the mushroom sprite, as it would've still required an entirely new sprite. The space saving measure was the fact that the walking animation was accomplished by just flipping that one sprite horizontally.

The Aqua Goombas always creeped me out when I was a kid. That game had so much weird horror themed content in it it was great lol

This is crucial documentation and must be protected at all costs.

Here are some Goombas that appear to be missing Mini Goomba: Those small yellow Goombas from Super Mario Odyssey Picture Match Part (Goomba): A puzzle peice found within a Minigame also in Odyssey that isn't alive, but is listed in the capture list so I think it counts Chuboomba: A fat Goomba found within Bowser's Inside Story that has a Lollipop that if Bowser eats, he runs away crying Jailgoon: A robot made by Fawlful that holds either a Goomba or a Bomb-omb Elite Goombule: Goombules who wear helmets that can only be defeated by the shell ability Goomba Gaurds: 2 Goombas in episode 1 of The Adventures of Super Mario Bros. 3 Sneaky Lying Giant Ninja Koopas, They wear Ninja Headbands and only reveal a painting of Prince Hugo the Huge Goombas from Super Mario Bros. (1993): They where rebellious subjects in Bowser's kingdom that got "De-evoled" into mindless Zombies that had arms and where nightmere fuel, Toad was also one of these people, but he was different because he still rebelled by helping Daisy Oragami Galoomba: Same thing as the Oragami Goomba from Paper Mario The Oragami King and also has many variations Paper Macho Goomba: A giant paper mache Goomba made by Olly to create Not-So-Bottomless holes and reak havoc on the Mushroom Kingdom, also in Paper Mario The Oragami King Small Goomba Gang: Groups of Small Goombas found in Paper Mario Color Splash Accordion Goomba: A Group of Goombas that came together to form an Accordion, also in Color Splash Goomba Wheel: A group of Goombas that joined together to form a wheel, they appear in multiple games and have different variations, like the Small Wheel Goomba 5 Fold Paragoomba: Essentially Wheel Goomba with wings Stiletto Goomba: A shoe Goomba with a Stiletto instead of a shoe, Found in Super Mario Maker 2 And last but not least, 8-Bit Goomba: A Goomba also found in Color Splash that's found inside the Mario Bros. 3 area, however I never found an official name for them other then the fact that the Mario wiki lists then under the 8-bit section just titled Goomba. So that's some Goombas I'd thought I mention, but just because their all Goombas doesn't mean we can't be, so follow your Goomba led dreams and live your best life.

Honestly surprised you didn't talk about Captain Goomba more, considering its the first and only time a Goomba was ever a Protagonist

0:50 and to put even more perspective into how little data the OG goomba uses, not only is it a rehashed mushroom sprite, its also only a single sprite that's mirrored on a timer to give it the illusion of walking.

😢 You forgot the most important goomba, the lonely goomba! You only find these goombas stuck in-between two pipes!

This series is absolutely fire so far, please keep them coming!!

So, you've done a Shy Guy video and now a Goomba video. I'm assuming there'll be a Koopa one as well, but if you weren't planning to already, I'd love to see a Thwomp one. I mean, I feel like Grindels, Grrrols, Wallops, Whomps, etc. are all part of the so-called "Thwomp" family, so I'd be really interested to see that. Plus, I just really enjoy this style of humor. Please keep making them, I love it.

For a second I didn’t think you were gonna mention chuboomba but you did and I’m thankful for that

something to note about galoombas is that they were always a different species in Japan (Kuriboh vs Kuribon)

Wtf you forgot Gaijin Goomba, super underrated varient with THE most interesting story and absolutely heart throbbing wedding

As a Goomba enthusiast, I can confirm.

Thank you for your in depth Goomba knowledge. You're a credit to the University of Goom

we need an every single thwomp video

Already forgot 90% of the vdeo, but those lore videos are hot 'n love to be fed more of it

Genuinely could not stop laughing at this video my stomach started hurting. Ur sense of humor is amazing and your delivery was beautiful. I’m down for more in depth Nintendo videos if that’s your thing or even branching out into different things would be cool too !! Hope to see you post more

Every Goomba is personalized.

I was having a bad day but this video made it a lot better

Pride Month ended so Goomba History Month could be fully realized

I love this passionate conversation on goombas.

I love your guys' energy. this video is amazing

Prediction: Goomboss will make another comeback in 2025 and he will be once again renamed to Goomking (this counts as correct if it's Kingoom or Kingoomba instead)

The Rhinestone Goombas are actually used in a fangame called Mushroom Kingdom Fusion. It is full to the brim with all different kinds of Goomba recolors and reskins. And the Rhinestone Goombas were chosen for the Las Vegas level.

unironically the best video i’ve ever seen. need more pls

You’ve truly opened my eyes today. Thank you. Stomping a goomba will never feel the same again

God I'm so excited for Coney to see this

We need even more videos like this

I didn't know I needed this video, but I did. Thank you for the time and effort put into this. I'd love to see more in the future if you're willing. A nature documentary on the Super Mario enemies is an idea for a video I've had for a long time, but never had the time or energy to write a script or anything. But this is pretty close, so I'm very pleased to see some info in here not even I knew. And also this style of humor is super hilarious, so keep it up.

Drinking game: Take a swig everytime Carlito says “Goomba”

GOOMBELLA GANG 🔛🔝

Honestly you did captain goomba dirty. the one from bowsers’s minions. he has the best goomba storyline of all time man!

the video I have waited for my whole life

Let’s freaking go! Carlito made it to my recommended page

That was awesome.

If Sad Goombas are their own species separate to regular goombas, that implies the existence of: -Excited Goomba -Scared Goomba -Disgusted Goomba -Mad Goomba Also I find it hilarious because Nintendo is basically saying that if you feel sad, you are not human 😂

I unironically love these things, they're so silly for some reason

33:23 Can’t believe one of my favorite goombas, Chuboomba, only got thrown in at the end. 😔

Oh you are a mario fan? Name every goomba

We are quite the species. I approve this video

This is the first video iv watched of yours and I gotta say, the rate this increased in depth AND unhingedness is impressive, and I’m still not even done yet. I look forward to more.

As a goomba, can confirm. This is every Goomba.

This series if fire. Every single Boo would be dope

The Goomba Bros wrote a letter to Goombario explaining how he showed them that being good is the best way to be strong, and that they were going to turn good. Best redemption arc in Goomba history

I love how goomba village in paper mario is literally just 1 family of goombas and a toad for population.

I thought this video was gonna end so many times but you keep finding more😂

Classic Carlito W Also, Goombud approves

Kind of a shame that the different sized goombas aren't mentioned (micro-goomba, mini-goomba (the gold ones), big goomba, giant goomba, Chuboomba,ect)

Thank you for this video. Now i know more about my goomba family tree.

So glad I found your channel. This video is a masterpiece you sir are criminally underrated. Time to go binge your vids lol.

We need EVERY SINGLE KOOPA next

Can you make “EVERY SINGLE KREMLING” next?

Cool idea for a series. Looking forward to Every Single Thwomp, the naming of that species always perplexed me.

Bro glossed over Captain Goomba as if he didn't have an amazing plot line of his own.

FINALLY!! We need more videos like this to help differentiate different types and species of goombas as well as discuss goomba history, thank you Carlito, for being one who cares about the Goombas. Also sorry but I hate to be That goomba, but in Mario Galaxy 1 the goombas did own their own planet before the Jack O' Goombas did, but its not shape like a jack o lantern its shaped like a yoshi head. Ok thats it thank you again >:)

I didn’t know I needed this video until today

If you wonder about goomba lives then look at Mario rpg. There is a goomba that retired from bowsers army and works a shop in Monster town. After his service he got married and had triplets. Fun fact: He talked about how bowser knew the blue clothed goombas name, bowser actually knows the majority of his army and despite being a brute, actually has a good relationship with the members of his army. Bowser actually talks to the goomba shopkeep in RPG and reminisce for a bit. What I love most is that when the goomba shows his kids to bowser, bowser is so proud he turns away and happy cries. Bowser is better than peach! Bowser is a king for his people

This video is outstanding so much lore to the Goomba; wasn’t expecting so many crazy variants in the old books and magazines, just crazy I’m sure a lot of research went into this, amazing work

I really enjoyed this video, had me cracking up 😭. Keep up the great content!

“When Nintendo made super Mario 3D world **TEN YEARS AGO**” you can’t just toss out ammunition like that

I really appreciate how much research you did on this topic

What an amazing video, this is a beautiful masterpiece that should be seen by everyone all around the world. Thank you for changing my life.

Perfect thing to watch whilst I’m on my trip to holiday

Keep up the good work, I really like the content you are creating

I needed this

I had to subscribe after such an amazing video, keep it up!

Can’t wait to enjoy this video once again on the Coney stream in a few days

Things i would have said about Galoombas: They were likely created to show off the more precise item carrying and throwing mechanics of SMW. Their round design more closely resembles the chestnuts that Goombas take their Japanese name from. Their ability to survive being jumped on makes them much tougher than their Goomba cousins, and given that they live in Dinosaur Land they might be related the stretchy Goombas from Yoshi's Island who can be flattened and still walk around with Yoshi on top of them, but you didn't mention those in this video :P

its a video on every goomba in the mario series why is this so entertaining, good stuff

we need more of these
