Talk:Yakuman DS

"Mahjong"
According to Wikipedia, mahjong can be written as mahjong, mahjongg, mah-jong, mah-jongg, mah jong, mah jongg or even majiang. We should decide which spelling to use and apply it to the wiki overall. - 06:44, 6 October 2007 (EDT)


 * Mahjong. It's the most used name. http://img257.imageshack.us/img257/9276/papertoycf7.gif Paper Jorge! I give paper cuts so stand back! http://img257.imageshack.us/img257/9276/papertoycf7.gif I think.

Super Smash Bros. Benfactor?
The characters only seem to be from Mario and its spin-offs (Donkey Kong and Wario), so I don't see how this game relates to Super Smash Bros., is there some in-game references other than characters, or is the information on the page incorrect? - Walkazo

yakuman player?
in brawl there is a sticker named yakuman player. why isn't he mentioned in the article and who is he?

HELLO!!?
 * Yakuman DS is one of many titles in the Yakuman series. Yakuman DS is the first to include Mario characters.  I would speculate that Yakuman player was a generic guy replaced by the Mario characters in this version.  Therefore, he is, as far as I know, not having seen Yakuman player in screens and videos for YDS, that he falls out of our range of coverage, and therefore he is not mentioned on the Wiki.  16:08, 1 February 2009 (EST)
 * The Yakuman Player is from the Game Boy game Yakuman released in 1989 in Japan . This game isn't Mario-themed, so the player isn't relevant for the article, but it might be worth mentioning that Yakuman DS isn't the first mahjong game by Nintendo, there are quite a few. By the way, I noticed that a Wikipedia author had stolen the article in February this year (no mentioning of Super Mario Wiki). The Wikipedia article is pretty much identical. --Grandy02 07:59, 5 March 2009 (EST)
 * Ha - our sourcing policy is different from theirs, so anything they steal share from us is going to be considered bad writing for them. 15:10, 5 March 2009 (EST)

Additional unlockable playable characters?
Are all of those characters really unlockable for play? How? As far as I've figured out I can't, and the Japanese Wikipedia article places all of the "unlockable" characters firmly in the "non-playable" category and lists Toad as an additional playable character instead.

Crossover?
On the Mario (series) article, it lists this game as a crossover game. But if it was a crossover, there would need to be another franchise, no?
