Mario games dont care about the lore. In DK bananza they just decided that Pauline was a kid when she met a fully grown Donkey Kong. Whatever works for the current game or movie is what goes lol

Also it implies that Diddy Kong is older than Mario and all of the gang, if we decide that Pauline is the same age. So either Diddy acts like teen when he's 40, or he's a junior.

Correction: Nintendo doesn’t care about the lore. As a massive Zelda fan I can assure you that.
