Talk:Mario + Rabbids Sparks of Hope

Kirkhope
https://twitter.com/grantkirkhope/status/1403808079435632640?s=20 Kirkhope confirmed he's returning to do the sequel with an arrangement of the theme from the Comet Observatory involved in Sparks of Hope. Bmaster2020 (talk) 18:10, June 12, 2021 (EDT)
 * That link doesn't work but I did check his account and he's confirmed that he's doing the soundtrack for the game. MarioComix (talk) 18:32, June 12, 2021 (EDT)
 * Can we add him and the crew that worked on Kingdom Battle in this? Bmaster2020 (talk) 19:09, June 12, 2021 (EDT)
 * I think it might be a bit too early, we don't know exactly which position they hold and which staff exactly are returning. If we get any confirmed positions (e.g. producer) we could add those along the way. MarioComix (talk) 20:44, June 12, 2021 (EDT)

Flag controversy
For the one with ROC and China, Just put ROC as Chinese Taipei and make things more simpler. Or better, add the release date for Russia if you add the release for ROC/Taiwan ==

The New Rabbid
Where does it say that the new rabbid is named edge?


 * Check the references on her article. 00:48, June 30, 2022 (EDT)

Retuning Rabbids
The article says that Yoshi, DK, etc are not conformed YET but they will not be in the game because the e-shop description says there is a roster of 9.
 * Yeah we don't know for sure if they're going to be in the initial release of the game; even if they're not playable they can still be present in the game such as a friendly NPC and whatnot. 00:47, June 30, 2022 (EDT)


 * The season pass will include more playable characters. 00:48, June 30, 2022 (EDT)

Yoshi and Rabbid Yoshi are confirmed not to be in the game
This video (https://youtu.be/CQHb6rf9z78) has someone who is working on the game stating that in universe they are taking a break and are on vacation so someone please add that they are confirmed not to be in the game. The video is in Spanish so use the auto translate feature if needed.

New voices for the Rabbids

 * So, judging by previews, Yoann Perrier won't be returning as the Rabbids as they each have their own indivdual voice actors. Should we make note of that? PrincessPeachFan (talk) 20:33, September 15, 2022 (EDT)
 * Pretty sure that's something normally not noted on game pages. Once a list of staff page gets created, readers could infer that. 20:46, September 15, 2022 (EDT)

In Mario Rabbids Sparks Of Hope the heroes are apparently looking for Rosalina
In this recent video on the game here (https://youtu.be/rlqV5soG99s) after the Midnite boss fight Beep-0 mentions that they are looking for Rosalina which heavily implies that Rosalina herself will appear in the game at some point. For now can someone please add that detail to the page and the Spark Of Hope section for Rosalina? I would very much appreciate it.
 * Can't you do it, tho? Not to be rude, but for a line saying "the heroes are looking for her", I feel like you could have spared this whole discussion paragraph -- 13:46, September 23, 2022 (EDT)
 * The page is protected against anonymous edits. The user you're replying to cannot edit it. In any case, Rosalina has been added to the character list. 13:50, September 23, 2022 (EDT)
 * Could you also add to the plot section that the heroes are looking for Rosalina as well? I would very much appreciate it.
 * Oh, right. Now I feel stupid for that non-actually-snarky remark. Well, about the plot part, we don't know why they are looking for her: surely for the Sparks situation (she's Mama Luma, after all), but there are no confirms for now. For what we know maybe the Comet Observatory crash landed on the Mushroom World, or the normal Lumas are worried about her absence, or maybe GameXplain is right and she is actually Cursa under the influence of Megabug or the Darkmess. To add infos in a future game page we need references, and we have not enough infos for that, now. -- 15:30, September 23, 2022 (EDT)
 * Done, now that we know Rosalina is actually Cursa, I added that info to her page. -- 14:34, September 29, 2022 (EDT)
 * All that was said in the trailer was "deeper secret", so this still isn't proper confirmation. 15:04, September 29, 2022 (EDT)
 * Oh, Gosh... Her eye was right there. -- 15:23, September 29, 2022 (EDT)
 * It's not quite enough to fully convince me, what would is if we at least see her whole face, or of course it gets outright stated somewhere. 15:41, September 29, 2022 (EDT)
 * I agree with Swallow. It does seem pretty blatant at this point that Cursa is Rosalina, but it's irresponsible to put that on the page until it's completely solidified and we have an actual explanation as to what happened rather than assuming.--Burb (talk) 18:14, September 29, 2022 (EDT)

Redirect from "Mario + Rabbids: Sparks of Hope"
When you search for the game with a colon after the word "Rabbids", it doesn't redirect you but instead asks if you want to create a new page for it. Just like how "Super Mario Brothers" redirects you to Super Mario Bros., I think this should be fixed. NintendoFan08 (talk) 10:05, October 21, 2022 (EDT)


 * Done, though you can create redirects yourself if you click on the red link, type  in the textbox and save.  10:28, October 21, 2022 (EDT)


 * Alright, thanks for the tip. NintendoFan08 13:13, October 21, 2022 (EDT)

Oh my god!
You forgot the template of the Mario + Rabbids Sparks of Hope! Do you want to add it?
 * Err which template? The navigation template? 22:26, October 22, 2022 (EDT)
 * Yes! Navigation template! Ok
 * I'm on it. 04:48, October 23, 2022 (EDT)
 * Done. Hopefully it's good -- 08:32, October 23, 2022 (EDT)

Toadette
I did see Toadette in the Characters list. But I can't found her from video. Is anyone have a source with her? Windy (talk) 04:28, October 23, 2022 (EDT)

Settings/Difficulty
Should we put the difficulty settings anywhere in this page? If we are, I do think we should mention that you can have invulnerability since it is one of the options too. BowserDukes38 (talk) 22:17, October 31, 2022 (EDT)
 * This should absoloutely be mentioned, maybe on Easy Mode and Hard Mode respectively as well. 07:06, November 1, 2022 (EDT)

Can someone add this information to Yoshi’s page that the reason why Yoshi (along with Rabbid Yoshi) do not return in Mario + Rabbids Sparks Of Hope is because they are on vacation
This information is mentioned on the Rabbid Yoshi page but it is not on Yoshi’s page for some reason. Also he along with Rabbid Yoshi is indirectly alluded to in the memory known as “The Story So Far”, here’s what the description of the memory says, Shortly after defeating the Megabug the Heroes disbanded. Some remained at Peach's Castle to help her "manage" the Rabbids there and build a new spaceship. With the sudden arrival and then disappearance of the Darkmess Manta- who took with it Mario, Beep-0, and Rabbid Peach- I gathered the remaining Heroes and executed a rescue mission, for which I have yet to hear Beep-0 say thank you. So can someone please add that as well because I have asked this on Yoshi’s page as well and I am afraid nothing has been done unfortunately.
 * To be honest, I'm not even sure where about on Yoshi's page this would fit, nor if it's actually worth mentioning at all since it's not mentioned anywhere in-game, just by a developer. I definitely wouldn't agree with creating a Sparks of Hope section just for that, and it would still look a bit out of place in the Kingdom Battle section. 13:14, November 3, 2022 (EDT)
 * Well he is indirectly mentioned in the memory “The Story So Far” which mentions that heroes disbanded after the Megabug was defeated with Yoshi being one of those heroes.

I see little reason not to add that developer statement in a Sparks of Hope section on Yoshi's article, because it offers a circumstance for Yoshi's absence, even as a joke. An article's History section isn't supposed to cover only physical appearances of a given subject, but also relevant mentions, quotes, and whatnot. Assertions from people directly involved in a game's development should be given official status as per an extrapolation of Canonicity: "the Super Mario Wiki opts instead to focus on Nintendo's involvement in a given source". 15:19, November 3, 2022 (EDT)
 * I have to agree with KCC here, we have information on a character's whereabouts during the events of a game from an official source (a developer, no less). Not putting that information on Yoshi's page is doing a disservice to our readers since they can only find it if they stumble upon the fact while reading unrelated pages. -- 17:44, November 3, 2022 (EDT)
 * Well can you also add that Yoshi is indirectly mentioned in the memory The Story So Far as well? Since it mentions that heroes disbanded after the Megabug was defeated with Yoshi being one of those heroes.:

Should the new Rabbid character for DLC 2 have their own page yet?
I know that no DLC for Mario + Rabbids Sparks of Hope has been released yet, but should the new Rabbid character have their own page yet? They are set for the second DLC. Here's an image of the character: If this gets approval, I can start to work on a page for this character. I just need to know others' opinions first. User:Mason Popovich Friday, January 6, 2023 18:49 (EST)
 * This should wait until we know a lot more about the character, not even sure if we have a name yet. 19:04, January 6, 2023 (EST)

Okay. Thanks for the feedback. User:Mason Popovich Friday, January 6, 2023 19:14 (EST)

Does Telesio need their own page?
In the template for M+RSoH, there is Telesio, who was never actually seen in the game, and only mentioned as an architect for the Winter Palace. Personally I don’t think that it needs their own page. It would be very short, and thus not provide much information. If anyone thinks that Telesio should have their own page, let me know and I’ll create a page for them. User:Mason Popovich Tuesday, January 10, 20:15 (EST)
 * If the character is only mentioned then they would be covered on the list of implied characters. -- 20:31, January 10, 2023 (EST)
