Talk:Mario Demo

Merge

This is bereft of any information that warrants it to be separate. I suggest to merge it to Tech demo, which already lists several demos that do not have pages. Does anyone disagree? Hello, I'm Time Turner. 23:14, 6 March 2018 (EST)

Your point is valid. That said, I'm fine with the proposed change. ^(T|C) 23:17, 6 March 2018 (EST)

This is a very bland article. We wouldn't lose anything in a merge. 23:26, 6 March 2018 (EST)

There's just about nothing here. I support.

P.S. Can anyone explain why the discussion tab sometimes shows up as a red link even though it works when I click it?

If you were viewing the article page before the talk page was created, but clicked on discussion after the talk page was created, it'd still take you to the talk page because of the time difference. Otherwise...idk, cache issue? 23:34, 6 March 2018 (EST)

I agree. VB Mario Land having an article is one thing, but this could barely hold a teaspoon. It's.....moving letters.....picture should go somewhere though... Doc von Schmeltwick (talk) 23:35, 6 March 2018 (EST)

As Camwoodstock said, this is just a prototype boot-up sequence for the Virtual Boy. The name "Mario Demo" comes from an old revision of the thing's page, in which it is referred to uncapitalized as "Mario demo" and as an "unnamed demo game" for the Virtual Boy. I don't believe this redirect should be kept, as this thing was never named and is simply an early boot sequence for the system. Nelsonic (talk edits) 20:30, October 21, 2025 (EDT)

Per the above section. This is just a prototype boot-up sequence for the Virtual Boy, and has since been removed from the tech demo article. The name "Mario Demo" is conjectural, and comes from an old revision of its page, on which it is referred to uncapitalized as "Mario demo" and as an "unnamed demo game" for the Virtual Boy. I do not believe this redirect should be kept, as it is currently redirecting to a page that no longer features it, and the name of the redirect is conjectural.

I am unsure if this warrants a proposal.

1. Arthur Miller- I mean, Nelsonic (talk) Per proposal.
2. Jdtendo (talk) If the subject has been removed from the page, no need to keep the redirect.
3. Camwoodstock (talk) As the ones who even removed the info in the first place after finding out it was just a prototype version of the Virtual Boy's boot sequence... Yeah, no, this thing should've been deleted a good while ago. Per proposal.
4. Martendo (talk) Per all.
5. The Dab Master (talk) Yet another overlooked, neglected page of the Wiki. Thankfully it's just a harmless redirect. Although I do feel like this could've just been a {{delete}} template.
6. Altendo (talk) Per Jdtendo.
7. 1468z (talk) Per all.
8. Rykitu Demo (talk) Per all.
9. Shokora (talk) – "Will you take that phony dream and burn it before something happens?" Per all.
