Talk:Trampoline

This is an extremely confusing article, and inacurate. This should be split; the Spring is called a Springboard I believe. Hyper Toad

Irony
It says that the springs were in Donkey Kong, but on the trophy information, it says they are jacks. Now how Ironic is that.

Trampoline?
I'm not familiar with the Super Smash Bros. series, but do we really need two separate articles about this and Trampoline? 07:02, 14 December 2008 (EST)

I don't see the point of having seperate articles for them either; They're pretty much the exact same thing. I say merge.
 * Agree, the game even tells that Springs originate from Donkey Kong Jr., it's just another name for Trampolines. The same goes for Magic Vines and Beanstalks, they should be merged as well. --Grandy02 10:04, 14 December 2008 (EST)


 * Or Trampoline is another name for Spring. (That is, trampoline should be merged to this article).  --
 * You know, you guys like to say stuff you never do.
 * Don't call on others to do it, just do it yourself. 12:11, 22 December 2009 (EST)

Jack
Aren't the "springs" in the original Donkey Kong actually jacks? Not only the Brawl trophy says that. In the manual for Donkey Kong Classics (and probably also in the manual for the NES Donkey Kong) they are called jacks. --Grandy02 12:42, 24 January 2010 (EST)
 * The manual does refer to them as jacks, but I also found it referring to it as a springboard."*HIGH JUMP (SECOND ROUND) A well-timed press of the 'A' button will allow you to jump all the way to the moving island using the springboard." Do you suggest the articles be split? --
 * Yes, I do. What you cited refers to Donkey Kong Jr., which is indeed the debut of the spring(board). --Grandy02 13:06, 24 January 2010 (EST)

Merge Spring and Trampoline into "Springboard"
They are basically the same thing a in some Mario games, the "Trampolines" called called Springboards.

Support

 * 1) Per Me.
 * 2) I am Zero! Per Iggy. Zero signing out.
 * 3) Who cares that those are different? Per proposer.
 * 4) As long as we're not also merging the Jacks from Donkey Kong, I'm in (Brawl specifically stated the Jacks were different).
 * 5) They do the same things and the Trampolines act like springs :D.

Oppose

 * 1) They are different things.

Comments
@Pokemon Trainer Mario: They don't have to be two different things. They have related effects thats all.

Why does the top of this article say, "Not to be confused with Trampoline"? 23:44, 3 March 2011 (EST)
