I kind of wonder this while playing any games in which you collect things–guns (or rocket launchers… I guess they shrink to pocket-size?), treasure, bananas… where are they keeping all of it?
Actually this is a common cartooning trick known as the magic satchel. It is used in games like the legend of zelda, pokemon, and more.

Well in Pokemon he’s shown to have a backpack. Maybe it’s a scientific backpack that functions like Kirby’s mouth,in the way that it leads to it’s own dimension so it can hold anything and everything.
Another reason he can’t jump is because this was originally going to be a zelda game. The idea was ultimatley taken away by Eiji Ayunuma because it didn’t feel enough like zelda. The pitched levels were featured in 3D world, and the rave over them interested Nintendo enough to make a full game.
Well, actually it was mentioned to be exactly like you showed here in “The Cat Mario Show – Episode 9” (watching the German Dub “Die Katzen-Mario-Show Folge 9”), viewable at the eShop

You have just stumbled upon the darkest secret in the history of gaming: hammerspace.

Really deep pockets. Or they borrowed an expanding spell for their wallets and purses.

I know it’s a month later, but according to the art from the manual for the original Legend of Zelda, he does it like this: http://img.photobucket.com/albums/v39/studiojfish/inspiration/link-items.jpg

Yeah! Just where DOES Peach summon Toad from in Smashies?
Button Mash
Its just a hunch, but I think that this is why toad hats are so big, given they aren’t actually biologicaly attached and there heads aren’t very big.
Snocone
I just want all of you to know that you’re hilarious. Thank you.
thegamerguy

The GaMERCaT 1# fan
Yeah, but it’s RIDICULOUS to try to put them in a letter.

Well, Captain Toad and Toad are different people so…And Captain Toad is red, while Toad is blue mario 3D world.
Rick
But… but… *Captain* Toad in 3D World couldn’t jump either…
Sam
That’s what I was thinking. I don’t even own a wii u, but I sampled the game and knew that
Switcherland
Also, if he can’t jump and is slow…
HOW DOES HE GET FROM THE MUSHROOM KINGDOM TO THE MOON KINGDOM AS FAST AS THE ODYSSEY!?!?
OOOOOOOOOO! IDEA! Maybe one of the treasures he found was an Arwing!
Nyan (Nano)
Yeah! Unless you became his character…
But you could be the other Toad and jump on him
I finished 3D world so
