Talk:Super Mario Land

Level articles?
Assuming I would like to write something about every single level in the game, how should this be done in your opinion? 12 articles for 12 stages or rather put the information in the kingdom articles? And in case of the first option, how to name the articles? / Time Q 14:41, 31 July 2007 (EDT)


 * You can give the levels made-up names and label them with, but I would recommend putting the information in the kingdom articles, as we've done with SMB3 level info.

Negmahuh?
In the story section of this article it says Mario likely went to rescue Daisy because of Peach? How does that make any sense? Fixitup
 * Well, sorta, cos' Peach and Daisy are friends. Regardless, you are right, it doesn't belong here. I was the one who put that there in the first place, back when I was a beginner. I removed it anyway.
 * Note: That Peach and Daisy are friends has not been said for at least 7 years after this game. - 05:30, 31 August 2007 (EDT)
 * Which is exactly why I removed it. Sorry about adding it. I was a novice when I added that. :(

Wario connection...
Where exactly was it said that Wario had set up the whole thing? I don't remember ever hearing that until just recently when I looked on here, and I've played both the first and second Mario Land multiple times... didn't Wario just say that he took Mario's castle while he was busy in Sarasaland, and not that he actually set the whole thing up? Or was the Wario connection to the first game from some other source (such as magazines/guides, which should almost never be considered canon?) Wario&#39;sFalconPAUNCH! 23:26, 10 September 2007 (EDT)
 * Guides are official. Wether it was in it or not, I have no idea. It was officially stated somewhere, I'm sure of it, unfortunately, I'm not that good at remembering. Guides ARE official, by the way. We can consider them canonical as well.
 * Hmm... didn't know about the policy on guides; then again my only experience with Nintendo's strategy guides is the Pokémon ones, which are usually so full of obvious mistakes that they're basically useless (only good part is that they have pictures of each Pokémon all in one place.) If the Mario guides are on a higher level of quality than that, though, then I guess there's nothing wrong with using info from them.
 * Anyway, can anyone remember where that bit of info came from? It does sound like something Wario would do, but... Wario&#39;sFalconPAUNCH! 00:01, 11 September 2007 (EDT)


 * I actually don't think this is stated officially anywhere. It is however, implied, given that Tatanga works for Wario in SML 2.  However, this needs to be changed all over the wiki.  I know the instruction manual only says Wario took control of Mario's castle while Mario was away, not that Wario hired Tatanga.  However, the possibility can be mentioned, but to my knowledge, no offcial source confirms this.  -- Son of Suns

Sales Speak
I'm Paper Mario Kart and this is Sales Speak. The game has 18.14 as of 1/27/12. Check out the others. What should I do next? Tell me what you think of the Sales Speak series!

Nintendo EAD?
Okay, the article states the game was not developed by Nintendo EAD but by Nintendo R&D1, yet the infobox states the developer is Nintendo EAD. Also, in the Nintendo EAD article, Super Mario Land is on the list of Mario games they developed.

What exactly is happening? 09:25, 20 March 2012 (EDT)


 * And for more information, Nintendo EAD is Nintendo R&D4, but not R&D1. 00:48, 31 March 2012 (EDT)

The Super Mario Land games are confirmed canon by Nintendo
Nintendo on their Japanese 30th anniversary website has posted "the history of the super mario series." All the games considered canon are still on the list, however the Super Mario Land games (specifically the first mario land and six golden coins)are added. Since this is indeed an official source by Nintendo, we have no choice but to edit this and the "Super Mario Land series" article to fit this official picture by Nintendo. If there is any reason why we should deny this official source please speak up. Here is the official source.
