Talk:Checkpoint Flag

Uhm, this seems quite similar to Midway Gate. Is "Midway Point" an official name? 04:30, 29 October 2007 (EDT)


 * A Midway Gate is a type of Midway Point. A Midway Point is a video game term - I will look into its official-ness as a Mario term.  -- Son of Suns


 * Yeah. Midway Point could become some kind of disambiguation page, I think. 09:29, 29 October 2007 (EDT)


 * No...it should remain with information, as a midway point in Super Mario Bros. is different than a Midway Gate in Super Mario World (which is a midway point). The midway point is a term, while a midway gate is an object. -- Son of Suns


 * I do not remember there even being any kind of checkpoint in the first Super Mario Bros. 09MurphyM 15:42, 29 May 2010 (EDT)


 * If you get to a certain point in a level in SMB and die, you'll end up back at the checkpoint. There's nothing that actually tells you where the checkpoint is in the levels, though.
