    Should Luigi keep his THunder Hand?

    Aren't we all by definition uber nerds? I do agree with you guys though, we need more differences for Luigi. Thunderhand, Poltergust, Superjump, Racoon Tail. That would be my requests. Racoon Tail would be nothing more than a way to make the cape look different... but it could do more or...

    Canonicity

    That's the thing though. As it stands, by separating the Super Show! and other alternate mediums that are clearly trying to incorporate themselves into the plotline, we are making a judgement as to that storyline. Knife was showing me a Wiki policy on this that states that the reason for...

    Canonicity

    Well, two things. First of all, this wasn't meant to be a hostile environment, so... can't say that was a reason I brought it up. Secondly, I feel that we owe it to ourselves to not make assumptions based on Star Wars and Star Trek fanboy theories about those two series, so... I dunno...

    Canonicity

    Like Ghost Jam said with Marioverse, though, the term evolved. Same thing here: now you've got editors writing about "alternate canon" and "bullcrap like that" as you put it. The other day I searched canon in the articles and came up with articles saying that the characters had made...

    Canonicity

    I'm sick of hostility, and I don't know how I started is, so I apologize again. Or for the first time if it was something I did since my last apology. Ok, now just so you know: I wrote the rest of this just as I was thinking it, so I'm sorry if it's confusing or whatnot. I'm honestly confused...

    Canonicity

    My problem is that we've already made assumptions about this, even though, as you and someone else said, there is no known official, golden document describing this. So, all I'm trying to do is make sure that people don't ignore other sources. For example, Mario's page has no section on the...

    Canonicity

    First of all, I owe you an apology. Second of all, the official sources are the differences in the quotes attached to the seals (you read about 'em) that render the argument that canonicity based on the original seal null. The second one, I could see very much so. Okay, and then the others...

    Canonicity

    We are being conjectural because we're trying to make sense out of an episodic series, similar to a TV show, that happens to have "Holiday specials" and no official timeline, so to speak. So what should we do instead? List out the games in release date order and tell them as individual...

    Canonicity

    Wait... so you'd rather have incorrect information posted as long as it makes it simpler? 3D, we're a Wiki. That's the point. We should be factual not conjectural.

    Canonicity

    3D, do you have any evidence to support that the seal = canon? I haven't read that anywhere. Actually, I don't know of Nintendo even addressing the issue of canon anywhere. Maybe just to say that players shouldn't think about it in regards to a certain game (DK: Jungle Beat or Donkey Konga, I...

    Canonicity

    Cool. So, nobody has any major objections, then? What I'm hearing is that we may also want to consider neglecting our assumption that events occured based on release date. I finally get what Ghost Jam was saying! :D Silly me. Oh, Ghost Jam: would you consider the characters from the Mario...

    Canonicity

    You're right that a certain continuity probably doesn't exist, which is why we're relying on release date order, but if we argue for separate universes, wouldn't you want to subdivide character articles into sections based on Paper Mario, Platformer, etc. instead of having one large Biography...

    Canonicity

    Just checking in real quick to clarify... I hope to be with you guys more this weekend maybe? Ghost Jam: Your second paragraph is what I wanted to get at -- we're placing too much emphasis on connecting the works instead of showing what happened. As I mentioned, that interview was the...

    What About Kid Mario?

    There was also a short Valient comic (one page) with "photos" from his parents' album. It's also the only appearance of Mr. Mario besides Yoshi's Island 1.

    Canonicity

    This is long, but please be sure to read it all! :) I’d like to start a discussion here regarding what we consider canon and what we consider alternate canon. Currently, the video games are our basis for an “ultimate canon,” while the other forms of media and games such as endutainment...

    Donkey Kong Kicked out of Mario Party: Why?

    Donkey Kong provided a variety to the cast of Mario characters that I sorely miss. It's sort of like how it would be if Yoshi was removed. So, why would Hudson do this? Here's my theory: I was reading about Kingdom Hearts the other day and I found out that "The Lion King" was planned as...

    Pac-Man for Brawl

    My post is in regards to the likeliness of these appearances. Well, let's think about this: I seriously doubt any company will get more than one character in Brawl. So, assuming Nintendo thought to go after the most influencial companies in the history of Nintendo and gave them the choice of...

    Main Page Features

    Recently Porple proposed that users demonstrate their ideas for the main page, admitting that it was "lacking" in comparison to other Wikis. I don't know if he'll accept this, but I'm hoping that I can get ideas across using a PowerPoint slide turned into a .jpg file. Before I do this I want...

    Thanks! Hopefully I can put that up a link on the Birdo page before I head out on vacation. (!!!yay!!!) I don't want to make a whole page about them, though, since I don't know enough about 'em.
