Talk:Para-Beetle

When you jump on Para-Beetles in NSMB Wii, they play a note. When you complete a scale, you get a 1-up Is that true? Source of info is this video. wow it's Kiryu (^T_C)

Yes. If you jump on eight Parabeetles without touching the ground, you get a 1-up. Mario JC

Merge Para-Beetle and Parabuzzy?

They're very clearly the same creature. I believe we've merged Atomic Boo with The Big Boo and the alternate names for Cheep Cheep and Podoboo throughout the series (some attributed to the RPG's translations), so this shouldn't be an exception. LinkTheLefty 00:28, 18 February 2011 (EST)

The name thing is unfortunate, but unlike the enemies we have merged, I think there are enough differences between these two species to keep them separated. For one thing, Para-Beetles have no legs, unlike Parabuzzies. On top of the looks, the two species also act quite differently: Para-Beetles are harmless flying platforms, pretty much, whereas Parabuzzies are damage-dealing opponents that loose their wings when jumped on. - Walkazo 01:11, 18 February 2011 (EST)

That's true, but remember any enemy can behave differently due to switching from platformer rules to RPG rules. LinkTheLefty 10:48, 18 February 2011 (EST)
