Talk:Koopa Chase

Official name
Is this the official name for this?

I'm not quite sure. I'll add the conjecture box just in case. 22:49, 2 December 2013 (EST)

Endless Road
I was curious as to whether or not the road the battle takes place on is endless, so I started the battle in Bowser's Highway Showdown, but refrained form kicking any bombs at him so the battle would keep going for a while. I discovered that for a while, the road has obstacles and gimmicks, like a ditch cut through the middle of the road with enough space on the edges to keep the Bowser Mobile above the ditch. But after a while I noticed the gimmicks diminishing until there were almost none at all. I can conclude that after a while, the road starts looping through the same section, which consists of one long, plain stretch with the only thing of note being a small jump in the middle. Having concluded that the road is not generated randomly and can therefore be fully documented, should I add the full layout of the road as well as the fact that it starts looping? I won't be able to do it until this weekend because I don't remember the full road and can't play until then. I'll also do the road for the second battle. 19:42, 16 November 2016 (EST)
 * Nobody's answering, so I guess I'll assume it's a good plan. If we're going to be the ultimate Mario database, we need all the detail we can get. I'll put it into its own section, marked Battle or Battle Layout. I'll also take a couple screenshots of the second Bowser Mobile, one from the front when he first drives up and one from the back, during the fight.

 * Sounds good. 14:02, 18 November 2016 (EST)
 * Done. I also got a pic of Bowser defeated.

Images
This article needs more images. Could we get images of: 19:47, 16 November 2016 (EST)
 * Bowser defeated
 * The second version of the Bowser Mobile
 * The second battle
 * The remains of the Bowser Mobile at The Great Tower of Bowser Land
 * I have a pic of the remains I could upload that I saved to Miiverse a while back. Would this be good enough? 19:49, 16 November 2016 (EST)
 * Yeah, that's good. I like how Mario's standing on top of it, signifying how he conquered it.
 * 19:53, 16 November 2016 (EST)
 * Uploaded and included! I'll upload a bigger and better version once I get around to it. 20:28, 16 November 2016 (EST)


 * Nice one.

Fireballs
Boomerangs thrown by Boomerang Mario can hurt it. What about fireballs thrown by Fire Mario? None appear in the level, but someone could still get to the battle with one from another level. 22:37, 22 November 2016 (EST)
 * I'm not sure, I will have to check. 22:39, 22 November 2016 (EST)
 * I have confirmed that fireballs can indeed destroy it. Every five hits, he takes damage as if he was hit with a bomb, so I multiply that by nine to get... 45 fireballs to defeat it.

 * That's the case with just about any enemy/boss. They can be damaged by fireballs, but it'll take more attacks for one solid "hit" to land. 15:43, 27 November 2016 (EST)
 * Yeah, but it's a bad plan to just assume that fireballs can hurt it. You should always check this stuff. Also, we would still need to know exactly how many hits it took.

"Name"
Are we sure that this is the name of the vehicle? It sounds like it's referring to the area you fight Bowser in, instead. Did somebody mess up? 21:06, July 1, 2019 (EDT)
 * Yeah, I'm not buying this either. "KoopaChaseLv2" sounds more like a 2nd level where you chase Bowser, which is exactly what the level is, rather than intended to be the name of the vehicle. It could also potentially refer to the combination of Bowser and the car, which would be the boss itself. I'm curious if anything internally refers to The Great Tower of Bowser Land as "KoopaChaseLv3", which would debunk the name. -- 21:24, July 1, 2019 (EDT)
 * Rest assured, I'm not just working off filenames and can confirm via Switch-Toolbox that KoopaChase is the model for the first car and KoopaChaseLv2 is the model for the second car. In fact, "Lv2" seems to be in general use for the object name of a revisited boss (for example, the first/blue Hisstocrat is TentackHead and the second/pink one is TentackHeadLv2). Additionally, levels are in a separate StageData folder, not ObjectData. LinkTheLefty (talk) 21:50, July 1, 2019 (EDT)
