Talk:Cameos

When I first saw this article, I almost thought there shouldn't even be an article. This was becuase of the fact that there was only three section. Now that Sonic has his own legitimate article, there is only two sections making a somewhat unneeded srticle. This is because of the lack of sections needed for a list.

Max2 nope. you could add more... but...

Welcome
For the fortnight of April 9th through April 23rd this is the collaboration of the fortnight!

I love that word -- fortnight. :P Sounds so olden-days like. As for Cameos to be placed here, is this just characters from other, non-Mario, games, or all games (such as Bow's appearance in the end of PM:TTYD, though she wasn't in the game)?
 * I'm thinking non-Mario games. 19:25, 9 April 2007 (EDT)

just the characters who have minor appearences in a game. Max2 that are not Mario characters.

just as I was about to... anyway Awesome!!! you see, hc, this is what belongs here. small cameos that don't fit in articles. Bow's cameo can go in her page (if it's not already there)

Link & R.O.B.
Both Link and R.O.B. have there own pages. They are both playable characters. Playable characters are not "camoes", they should be removed here.

As well, only cameos of someone who doesn't deserve to get his own page should go here. - Cobold

true...

Great Gonzo


 * Perhaps this article should be titled "List of Minor Cameos". Or maybe links should be provided to cameo characters of major importance who have their own pages. -- Son of Suns

Why don't we just keep it like this, with Main article: Whatev (of course, not random, not Whatev)

We put the main article is Purple Yoshi? Lol, just kidding. Anyway, yeah, that would be a good idea.

Or, we continue what has already been started and Link the section title.

I suggest we group Super Smash Bros. cameos into one section. Since they weren't technically in a Mario game, I don't think every character that appears in Super Smash Bros. deserve their own section. And also, the R.O.B. from Star Fox isn't the same R.O.B. in Mario Kart. I  am   Confused  18:10, 17 April 2007 (EDT)


 * A SSB section is a good idea. We could do the same for DK, Yoshi, and Wario as well, if wanted. The ROB from Star Fox is not the same ROB from Mario Kart 64. The ROB from Mario Kart 64 was originally an accesory for the NES. However, I'm sure the name ROB from Star Fox 64 is a reference to the original ROB. -- Son of Suns

Big the Cat
I just noticed, Big the Cat is not only in the background of the Athletics events, but he also appears at the start of the Rowing event. Does that mean he is a referee, not just a random NPC making a cameo? If so, I'll get to the article right away!

Bruce Lee and Annette Funicello
Just a little inconsistency here: Bruce Lee is featured here from his Super Mario RPG appearance, but Annette Funicello is an implied character. I believe both persons can be considered both implied characters and cameos, particularly Annette, because she was mentioned in the Super Show!, which took place in the Real World from time to time. So, we should probably put them both on both lists, but that doesn't solve the problem of where their names should redirect. Thoughts? 01:52, 4 January 2008 (EST)

The contest
I cant seem to find the article anywhere and i know its on here. I want to link it to some of the Sonic and Earthworm Jim stuff. By The Contest i mean the challenge that Cranky Kong made to see who was the best video game hero.

Organization
Is this supposed to be organized alphabetically, some other way, or does it not matter? Redstar 10:48, 17 December 2009 (EST)

It doesn't look like it.

Redirects
I was just looking through the Wiki Maintenance categories and wondering what should happen to all the redirects to this article. Bruce Lee, Flicky, Fuwa, Navi, Beibei, Jingling, Huanhuan, Yingying, Nini, Perfect Chaos, Chaos and Fairy aren't listed in the article at all anymore while Earthworm Jim and Samurai Goroh only have things related to them listed here, imo making it a bit nonsensical to have those redirect here since there is no information about the actual characters in this article at all. Should all of those redirects be deleted, should some be changed to redirect somewhere else, or should they just continue to redirect here?--vellidragon 11:10, 31 March 2010 (EDT)
