Talk:Silver Coin

Official name?


 * I'm pretty sure it is, but I could be wrong.--
 * Source?
 * I don't think its official, but maybe it is in a guide...
 * Hm, they're just refered to generically as "gray Coins" in the Super Mario World guide. Which doesn't necessarily mean that "Silver Coin" is unofficial, though. 13:33, 21 February 2010 (EST)

Offical name
Silver Coin is it's offical name because, I was searching super mario world stuff on google and i found some page saying that this name is offical.

Yeah, but google pages musn't be right.-

NSMB
So both this page and the P-Switch page refer to the silvery-blue coins in New Super Mario Bros./New Super Mario Bros. Wii as Silver Coins, but the Blue Coin page says that they're actually blue coins. Which type is it?--Vommack 20:52, 11 June 2012 (EDT)

Silver? In what way?
OK, what we have here are some pretty clearly blue coins for SMB3 and NSMB, which work like the blue coins from SM64 and the later NSMB games, and are distinctly blue, and not silver. Addmitedly, it's a metallic blue instead of a deep blue, but they're still blue. Are they called "silver" in those games? (EDIT: I see that's the case for Advanced 4) If that's the case, I'd like to direct your attention to the Red Boo page, which has primarily pink and orange examples.

 * Bumping this. I suggest what should happen is that the SMB3 and NSMB versions should be treated as old names for Blue Coin, as the ones in those games are in fact blue and act the same as later Blue Coins, while the SMW ones should be split to "Gray Coin," as that seems to be what they're called in that game, as well as not acting like the others on this or that page in any way beyond pressing a switch to make them appear, as said switch causes enemies to turn into the coins, not to mention the extra life detail. This would leave only the DKR ones for this page. Doc von Schmeltwick (talk) 16:02, 11 January 2018 (EST)
 * Nintendo Power NSMB guide calls them Blue Coins. 16:06, 11 January 2018 (EST)
