Beta Super Mario Sunshine[edit]

I forgot what it was called, but there was a DVD that had videos of Nintendo games. In the Super Mario Sunshine one, I saw Mario riding a "Shiny Shell". And I haven't seen any in the game, so, maybe it was beta. Minimariolover10

I may be wrong, but I think your talking about This Game . In Super Mario 64, if Mario took a Koopa's Shell, it would be "sparkling".

Is it Triple Green Shellls or just Triple Green Shell?Knife (talk) 11:53, 15 December 2007 (EST)

Another suggestion for a merge[edit]

Since there are currently many discussions about merges, why don't we merge this article with Green Shell? There's not much of a difference, there's only three of them. - Gabumon from the Digimon franchise Gabumon(talk) 06:34, 22 December 2009 (EST)

I agree, triple green shells are just three green shells that don't have any special effect whatsoever other than circling around the player's kart or fired in threes. They function exactly the same. Did you do this for the other triple articles?

There appears to be a fair amount of information here. Should we merge Triple Green Shells as well as single Green Shells into a "Green Shell (Mario Kart)" article, or would merging into the already-existing Green Shell article be best? I'm sure the information can be written more terse. I support merging either way. Redstar 22:50, 23 December 2009 (EST)
I think merging into the Green Shell article would do best. Don't see a reason why we should make a new "Green Shell (Mario Kart)" article. Time Questions 07:15, 24 December 2009 (EST)

Relevance of Zelda section[edit]

First off, in every other game they appear in, Terrorpins are red. Secondly, the green they appear as in that game is more turquoise than the lime green the Troopa shells usually have. Lastly, they're just another generic cartoon turtle enemy, and unlike Hardhat Beetle, there is no clear connection to any Mario enemy at all. I think that section should be removed.

idk, they certainly look like Koopa shells to me. However, since there is no Koopa Shell page, Green Shell is next best option. Alex95sig1.pngAlex95sig2.png 21:59, 18 January 2018 (EST)
It's a generic box turtle shell in an easy-to-see color. Also, they have more Buzzy Beetle-like bodies. Doc von Schmeltwick (talk) 21:59, 18 January 2018 (EST)

64/64 DS[edit]

A sign in Cool, Cool Mountain in at least the DS version of Super Mario 64 DS refers to this as a Shiny Shell. Should we refer to the 64 shell as Shiny Shell given it's an in-game name? PrincessPeachFan (talk) 21:34, November 5, 2023 (EST)

The in-game text always says "shiny shell" as a description, not as a name, at least in my experience. Doc von Schmeltwick (talk) 21:45, November 5, 2023 (EST)
