Talk:New Super Mario Bros.

message: Is there a reason Nintendo Power isn't included in the table under the reception section? MarioGalaxy2433g5 (talk) 23:00, 1 August 2008 (UTC)
replies: text: They’re both made by Nintendo, so Nintendo Power probably can’t be a reliable source for a review of New Super Mario Bros. — NRen2k5(TALK), 05:05, 16 May 2009 (UTC)
replies: text: Normally, it would be (it has its own editorial staff et al), but, especially for a game published by Nintendo, one needs to be wary in what is being referenced from NP. For instance, it wouldn't be a good idea to reference a review from NP in the Reception section. Content for gameplay, plot, or development would be OK. MuZemike 05:36, 16 May 2009 (UTC)

message: IIRC, it would be one less fair use image needed, which would improve the status of the article, and certainly isn't an image of diminished quality. - A Link to the Past (talk) 02:55, 4 August 2008 (UTC)
replies: text: The image is still fair use and copyright violation. Check out the copyvio tag on the image. Box art and such is not fair use and cannot be accepted by commons' policies. It will probably be deleted in no time. The Prince (talk) 14:13, 4 August 2008 (UTC)

message: "making Bowser become a skeleton"
Awesome standards there Wiki. Especially considering the hypocrisy that has lead me to post this section again. The entire plot section is written very weakly. I can't be the only one who noticed this. 199.227.86.10 (talk) 17:52, 16 May 2009 (UTC)
replies: text: Feel free to change it if you think it needs improvement. That particular text that you quoted was actually in the article for only about a week, so I guess no one caught it. Gary King (talk) 18:45, 16 May 2009 (UTC)
replies: text:  I like you. :3 But yeah, I would be Bold and change it, but my own English sucks just as bad. So I figured to do the next best thing and bring it to attention. Which someone sure did rather dramatically, ha. 199.227.86.10 (talk) 21:14, 16 May 2009 (UTC)

thread_title:  LOLENGLISH 

message: Someone posted "[Mario Bros is beyond awsome , totaly cool and lets not forget one of the coolest games ever.]" in the first paragraph - I removed it, but the fact that it got a high quality rating is kind of disturbing.--Veg20xx (talk) 07:38, 17 May 2009 (UTC)

thread_title:  Stupid comment 

message: the first paragraph doesn't make any sense.  
"The game was released in North America and Japan in May 2006......first game to be a part of the main Mario series of video games since Super Mario Galaxy in 2008. 
how can something before 2008 be after 2008?
i would re-edit this myself but i am not that familiar with the topic

replies: text: Anonymous user 67.177.64.123 changed the game and year, but did not change the tense of the words before them. I changed it back to Sunshine for now, but the user may have a point: are the Sunshines part of the main Mario series, or just a spin-off group separate from Galaxy (and, for that matter, is Galaxy itself canon)? --an odd name 08:58, 17 May 2009 (UTC)

text: Mario (series), section "Main series", lists Sunshine and Galaxy, so I'd suggest that 67.177.64.123 keep it as before unless they can prove otherwise through some source. :) --an odd name 09:07, 17 May 2009 (UTC)
replies: text: I have not seen any reliable sources ever question whether Sunshine or Galaxy are part of the main series. IMO is highly unlikely that they are spinoffs.--76.65.140.218 (talk) 18:40, 30 May 2009 (UTC)

message: I'm afraid this article is going to need an FAR soon. Given how popular this game was, I'm surprised by how short this article is. The "sequels" section is unsourced, and there's no discussion of this game's legacy. To my understanding, it's also missing a lot of information about development; only the second and fourth paragraphs are really about development, the rest are either about announcements/release and gameplay changes.

replies: text:  New Super Mario Bros. isn't even mentioned in that article though, why would it fit here? I'm not sure if this information could fit anywhere on Wikipedia actually, it seems far too niche and not notable enough. Maybe if someone made an article about urban myths in Mario games? That would be completely unprecedented as far as I know and wouldn't make the cut probably.--Megaman en m (talk) 03:48, 10 June 2021 (UTC)

message: "When Mario lands on top of a tree, it teeters over and eventually falls if he is stationary for too long."
I don't remember a tree platform in the game. Searching in the web, it seems like it was a beta scrapped element () that was not present in the actual game. Redjedi23 (talk) 15:54, 9 October 2023 (UTC)
