In the Japanese games, [[King Boo]] was originally two separate characters. Super Mario Sunshine had "Boss Teresa," while the rest have "King Teresa." Also, [[Big Boo|Atomic Boo]] is simply the Japanese name of [[Big Boo]]. What we call a [[Goomba]] was also originally two separate entities: Kuribon (SMW) and Kuribou (everywhere else.) So, should there be separate articles for these? | In the Japanese games, [[King Boo]] was originally two separate characters.

I've been browsing the wanted pages for ones that I can create and I've noticed around page 517, there is a wanted page titled [[Mario & Luigi: Bowser’s Inside Story]] (I just copied and pasted the title then put the brackets). But when I did the same to the title of the game, The link appears and I just don't see a difference in spelling or anything [[Mario & Luigi: Bowser's Inside Story]]. Is that just me or are these identical and there's a glitch | I've been browsing the wanted pages for ones that I can create and I've noticed around page 517, there is a wanted page titled [[Mario & Luigi: Bowser’s Inside Story]] (I just copied and pasted the title then put the brackets).

I've added a comment on the [[Talk:Games|Games talk page]] and would like to have feedback from you guys. The games page is a very important page on the Wiki that has been lying around abandoned forever and we should create some guidlines for its structure, maybe have a proposal as well. - {{User:Cobold/sig}} 12:46, 15 September 2009 (EDT) | I've added a comment on the [[Talk:Games|Games talk page]] and would like to have feedback from you guys.

According to and edition published in ''BussinessWeek'' magazine, Nintendo was declared as the best company in the world, while Google and the Apple company remain in second and third place respectively. They were rated on 2008 sales and international sales percentage.

== Mario Awards IV == | == Mario Awards IV == | ||
I'd like to pass on control of Mario Awards IV to St00by, and personally suggest keeping it at 30 Mario Awards and 10 Fail Awards – 50 ended up being too much last year. I still will host the actual polls since I'd like the $200 commitment to be worth something, and they worked very very well last year. If St00by could get AIM, I am still on there as WayoshiM everyday talking to ''Price is Right'' and ''Wheel of Fortune'' pals and I can be consulted there. | I'd like to pass on control of Mario Awards IV to St00by, and personally suggest keeping it at 30 Mario Awards and 10 Fail Awards – 50 ended up being too much last year.
