Something that just came to mind: one of the original arguments against using "Bulls-Eye Banzai" for its ''NSMBWii'' appearance was that it was derived from "Bulls-Eye Bill", a name which did not (or at least was not known to) exist at the time. However, the same thing applies to [[Jumping Fire Piranha Plant]], a ''Super Mario World''-exclusive enemy whose name is derived from [[Fire Piranha Plant]], which was known as "Venus Fire Trap" at the time. {{User:7feetunder/sig}} 19:54, August 27, 2022 (EDT)

:In fairness, Jumping Fire Piranha Plant apparently didn't even get its Japanese name until ''Encyclopedia Super Mario Bros.'', which was well beyond the point Nintendo stopped using Venus Fire Trap in English. Their approach to legacy names isn't the same as ours. [[User:LinkTheLefty|LinkTheLefty]] ([[User talk:LinkTheLefty|talk]]) 15:30, August 30, 2022 (EDT)

== Call the Bull's-Eye Banzais in ''New Super Mario Bros. Wii'' only "Bull's-Eye Bomber Bills" ==
Lemme tell you what: Bull's-Eye Bomber Bills debuted in ''New Super Mario Bros. Wii'' as variant of both the Missile Bill and the Banzai Bill. I see that both Banzai Bills and Bull's-Eye Bomber Bills are mistaken called King Bills in the ''New Super Mario Bros. Wii'' PRIMA Official Game Guide. I was just wondering if there's a possibility to call the Bull's-Eye Banzais in ''New Super Mario Bros. Wii'' just "Bull's-Eye Bomber Bills" instead of "King Bills".
