Considering this (and the reasons related to the awkward Mario movie), I guess this is a very legit reason as to why Nintendo hardly ever allows comics and TV shows based on their IPs to surface in this day and age anymore. WIth Sonic having more comic series, timelines, and TV shows than all the Nintendo IPs combined, it would be too confusing if Mario was his jolly self in the games, but ended up being a rouge freedom fighter in an officially licensed comic series. It would be too tricky to keep track of and there would be plenty of arguments on what is canon or not.
