Talk:Blurp

History section
This article appears to have enough information to add a History section, and right now I think that it looks a bit awkward without one, so should this section be added?

SMM games and Cheep Cheep
So in the SMM games, the Blurps are called Cheep Cheeps, made more blatant by the River Fish in the Forest SMM2 mission. Anyways, I'm starting to think that instead of listing these as "actual" Blurps, we should list them as Cheep Cheeps that look like Blurps to fit with the game's aesthetic. A reskin cameo, if you will. Given that Cheep Cheeps already sometimes looked like Blurps in some N64 games, it's not that much of a long shot anyways.

 * Yeah, I'd be okay with calling them Cheep Cheeps. 03:22, March 3, 2020 (EST)
 * Yeah, probably, if the Japanese version doesn't recognize them either. -- 05:17, March 3, 2020 (EST)
 * To be fair, it's not completely incorrect - the Blurps and Big Cheep Cheep are only one degree away from normal Cheep Cheeps after all - so it could be a holdover of the previous game not giving verbal cues to all variants, like how text doesn't match the voice for Jelectros and Sea Urchins.

Consider the Super Mario Maker games a design cameo rather than a full appearance
See above (this affects both Blurp and Deep Cheep). In SMM/2's SMW and NSMBU styles, the designs of Blurp and Deep Cheep are used to stand in for the green Cheep Cheeps in fitting with the bases of said styles. However, they are always treated simply as Cheep Cheeps (and it doesn't even act like Deep Cheep in NSMBU style). This proposal aims to reflect that: treating these as normal Cheep Cheeps that, for stylistic reasons, happen to resemble Blurp and Deep Cheep and not being Blurp and Deep Cheep themselves. They would not be completely excised from the pages, as the usage of their designs can be noted in an "other appearances and references" section.

Does the same apply to Galoombas in the Super Mario World style? 06:09, October 5, 2021 (EDT)
