They have the same Japanese name and have the same objective, with the different English names most likely being the team not understanding the reference.

Support (Merge pages)[edit]

  1. Ihavenoideaboyo (talk) Per proposal.

Oppose (Pages are left seperate)[edit]

  1. Toilet Paper (AltendoWare: Twisted!) Their Japanese names and premise might be identical, but their gameplay is very different (admittedly, the same can be said for some Mario Party 8 minigames in Mario Party: The Top 100, but those are directly based off the original game through reference, aesthetics, music, and name, at least in English), and even if they are similar, other separate Mario Party minigames also are, like Bowser's Big Blast and Bowser's Bigger Blast, which share similar gameplay and names but are not merged because they are separate microgames; in fact, the Italian versions share the same name, Esplosione Bowser. Speaking of names, just because they share the same name does not make them the same microgame (did you know that there are three separate microgames named Pikmin 2?). So yeah. Different gameplay, English names, and presentation are enough to deter me from this merge. That said, I am interested to see if there are other WarioWare series microgames that share the criteria I listed above but are actually the same page, and if I can see them, I might consider changing my vote.
  2. Camwoodstock (talk) Unless two (or more) microgames are clearly meant to be variations of one another (like Gold Digger), we don't really like the idea of merging them, and even then, there's always a weird edge-case.
  3. PrincessPeachFan: Per Altendo.

Comments[edit]

@Altendo I think you messed up the formatting in your vote. The Dab Master 20:37, October 30, 2025 (EDT)

Thanks for catching it. I accidentally used a pipe instead of a colon. Altendo 20:40, October 30, 2025 (EDT)

Agreed with Altendo. Sharing two different Japanese names for different things is pretty common e.g. Thowmp Block and Broozer which are called Kurassha in Japan. PrincessPeachFan (talk) 08:59, October 31, 2025 (EDT)

So I kinda do sorta agree with this? It's the same microgame concept, just adapted to work with different controls. Yet, the Get It Together version of Gold Digger is merged to the other games' versions despite the clear differences, just because that one kept its English name. What makes that more mergeable than this? That said, there are other similar examples that could use looking at, and I'm not sure how I feel about this proposal focusing on just this one. Busted!
