So since we decided ''Hotel Mario''{{'}}s "Toad" was a misidentified 1-up Mushroom, should we do the same for this? This is clearly based off ''Bullet'' Bill's original artwork, is at a normal size for Bullet Bill, and essentially acts like the diagonal Bullet Bills from ''Super Mario World''. This seems to be a mistake on the manual writers' part. [[User:Doc von Schmeltwick|Doc von Schmeltwick]] ([[User talk:Doc von Schmeltwick|talk]]) 15:59, May 6, 2020 (EDT)

:Maybe you should write a proposal about this. This is Bull's-Eye Banzai all over again. {{User:Ray Trace/sig}} 14:39, September 16, 2020 (EDT)
::The difference here is that ''Hotel Mario'''s "Toad" is also identified as an "Extra Mario Mushroom", which was a name used for 1-Up Mushroom in ''Super Mario World'' material. Technically, what's called a Banzai Bill in the manual is still visibly a bit longer than a common Bullet Bill, which also had inconsistent physical characteristics at the time. Besides, some of the game's designs aren't exactly 1:1, such as Spiny or Mecha Koopa. [[User:LinkTheLefty|LinkTheLefty]] ([[User talk:LinkTheLefty|talk]]) 10:42, September 19, 2020 (EDT)
:::If there's no material contradicting this and saying it was a Bullet Bill, I'd say this is a judgment call we shouldn't really be making. --{{User:Waluigi Time/sig}} 19:54, January 17, 2022 (EST)
