==Game & Watch==
While there is around a dozen of ''Mario'' [[Game & Watch]] titles, the Wiki also has articles on many more Game & Watch games, since they were included in the ''Mario'' themed ''Game & Watch Gallery'' series. However, articles such as ''[[Ball]]'' handle those as if they were "real" ''Mario'' games. I think the non-''Mario'' Game & Watch titles should be handled like mini-games, since the only reason for the articles is that they were featured in the compilations. After all, this Mario Wiki and not Nintendo Wiki. The [[DSiWare]] article also lists all Game & Watch ports (only exact ports in this case and no ''Mario'' remakes), including those that don't feature any ''Mario'' characters. What do you think? --[[User:Grandy02|Grandy02]] 16:05, 14 August 2009 (EDT)

:The Modern versions of these titles ''are'' "real" ''[[Mario (franchise)|Mario]]'' games, but I agree that those articles should be dealt with in regards to the ''Game & Watch Gallery'' updates as opposed to the original games themselves. That means replacing their standard game infoboxes with special G&W Gallery Mini-game templates, and scrapping all the DSi information, correct? I think [[Manhole (Game & Watch)|Manhole]] is a good example of what we'd be striving for: a concise introduction, followed by the information about the original/classic game, and then the modern stuff. Perhaps to keep in step with the rest of the wiki's organization, there should be a "History" section with a "Background" sub-section dealing with the original game (i.e. the release date, the photo of the game, a mention of its DSiWare release, and any unique gameplay elements); the brunt of the original gameplay would then be included in the "Classic" sub-header of the "Game & Watch Gallery" section (covering the ''series'', not any one title in particular, seeing as some games, like  [[Chef (Game & Watch)|Chef]], appear in multiple galleries), with the "Modern" version once again bringing up the rear. Or, if all those headers seem superfluous, simply sticking to a "Background" header and a "Game & Watch Gallery" header with the "Classic" and "Modern" sub-headers would work too. I like the latter option the best, what about you guys? - {{User:Walkazo/sig}} 20:14, 14 August 2009 (EDT)

:::I'm afraid I can't - or at least, not at this moment. I haven't learnt the "how-to"s of infoboxes yet, and I don't have enough time to learn right now (regardless of how simple it may be). Sorry. - {{User:Walkazo/sig}} 22:09, 22 August 2009 (EDT)
