Talk:Invincible Mario

Official title?


 * Uhm, not entirely sure. I only have a German manual for Super Mario Land, where it says "Unbesiegbarer Mario" (translated: Invincible Mario). / Time Q 21:03, 2 August 2007 (EDT)


 * OK.
 * Have't you noticed that the "flashing" only is in evidence in "MK:Double Dash!" when the characters only flash gold,but in ALL other games,they color-change.-- Xterra 1  09:24, 4 August 2007 (EDT)
 * In Super Mario Land they flash as well (there were no colors...) / Time Q 09:32, 4 August 2007 (EDT)

Picture
The picture of SMW - it doesn't look like a proper screenshot. Maybe it's just me, or maybe not. What do you think? 14:26, 13 September 2010 (UTC)
 * What do you think is wrong with it? - 16:17, 13 September 2010 (UTC)
 * It looks way waay too smooth to be an actual screenshot of the game. It kind of looks like something a flash animation would use... 16:28, 13 September 2010 (UTC)
 * I have seen a few other screenshots like that (example). --Grandy02 16:31, 13 September 2010 (UTC)
 * Good, someone added a new picture. The abyss picture should probably be replaced, too... I'll see what I can do. (If I remember to.) 15:12, 14 September 2010 (UTC)
 * Screenshots that look like that were taken in an emulator with a GFX filter activated to make things look more smooth at a larger display size, so they are "actual" screenshots. I do agree though that screenshots with a filter shouldn't be used, as they don't show things how they actually look in the game when played on a real console.--vellidragon 15:28, 14 September 2010 (UTC)

Star Mario
I think this should be changed to Star Mario, because too many things can conflict with 'invincible mario'. Like for instance, Rainbow Mario is invincible, as well as metal mario and shell mario and other things too. Wiiboy4ever 22:20, 25 May 2011 (EDT)

No no we can't it's not the official title

The same artwork
Has anyone noticed that this artworks of...

...are completely the SAME IMAGE!

Basically Nintendo didn't bothered to make a new artwork for Invincible Mario for New Super Mario Bros. 2 and recycled the artwork from New Super Mario Bros. Wii. I guess we should get rid of the image with the lowest quality, of course that's the left one, and only keep the right one, because there is no sense on having the same image with different formats or quality.

Support

 * 1) Okay, I think the title for this article should be rather something like "Invincibility". This article is about the status effect of invincibility, not about Mario's invincible form. Also, it doesn't fit well categorized under categories from other games, say the Donkey Kong series. Having "Invincible Mario" categorized at the category "Donkey Kong Country 3: Dixie Kong's Double Trouble!" is really weird.
 * 2) 100% per your points. I remember seeing "Invincible Mario" in that category and got confused at first.
 * 3) I also agree, but I think we should just have both an "Invincible Mario" page to talk about the form characters take when using a Super Star (like how we have a page for Rainbow Mario separate from here), and a page for the ability to become invincible in general (so like "Invincibility" or something, like Scarlet Pairo proposed), such as Invincible Mario, Rainbow Mario, Strong Kong, the ability given through the Invincibility Barrel, and any other methods to become invincible in the Mario-related games.

Oppose

 * 1) The article is about the form though, but it's obviously impossible to separate the form from the effects that it gives. Converting this page into a blanket "Invincibility" article not only provides nowhere to talk about the actual Invincible Mario form, but it also leaves similar forms like Rainbow Mario and Super Happy in a weird spot where they receive their own individual coverage but the main invincibility form of the series doesn't for arbitrary reasons. If anything, splitting off appearances that don't quite fit here into a general invincibility page would be a better approach.
 * 2) - Per WT, that sounds like a better approach to me.
 * 3) Per Waluigi Time.
 * 4) Per all.
 * 5) Per all
 * 6) Per all.
 * 7) Per all.
 * 8) Forms and power ups are separated because they are different things. Per all.
 * 9) Per all.
 * 10) Per all.

Comments
@Waluigi Time I only suggested changing the article title, but the article could still stay this way and cover the invincible character forms. Maybe we could make redirects afterwards. I mean, why shouldn't Invincible Mario be included in this article if it were about invincibility all together?


 * Then that would be a merge of all invincibility forms into one page, which is 1. outside of the scope of this proposal and 2. not really preferable since you're clumping too many distinct subjects together. Aside from the forms I mentioned, how would forms like White Tanooki Mario factor into this? Would any form that grants invincibility be merged here? -- 13:15, November 6, 2021 (EDT)


 * Okay, I see what you're getting at. Your proposal of splitting other instances of invincibility is a good idea. 14:02, November 6, 2021 (EDT)

Hello, when making a proposal, please make sure you fill out your reasons in the top most section. Also, for comments, you don't need to number them. 14:56, November 6, 2021 (EDT)

@Metalex123: A page covering all invincibility-granting forms would only work if none of them were given their own articles, otherwise it's a violation of Once and only once. -- 21:34, November 6, 2021 (EDT)
