Talk:Power Star

Merge?

Should we merge Grand Star, Power Star, and Green Star, because they are all Power Stars, and they are different types. We could put Power Star, and list the types, and give the info. But don't we need a proposal?

Well, first of all, Power Star should definitely not be merged with Grand Star, as they are two completely different types of star and therefore serve distinctly different functions than normal Power Stars, however much they may look like a Power Star. Second, Green Stars (along with Bronze Stars, Silver Stars, and the Red Star) may look like just another Power Star with a different color, but again, each has its own particular function that is very different from Power Stars, which is why there are multiple articles about these different types of stars in the first place.

i see your point. bronze stars serve the same purpose, so we should reference it in the Galaxy section, and say how to get one. if you think this is a good idea, just let me know and i'll do it. Boo Who Plays Games Happy Easter! 20:01, 8 April 2011 (EDT)

Well, though closer in function to a Power Star than Green, Red, or Silver Stars, Bronze Stars are still not exactly the same as Power Stars; they only take the place of a particular Power Star until the player is able to complete a certain mission themselves, without the help of the Cosmic Spirit...and when you say "reference it in the Galaxy section," what is the "Galaxy section" you're talking about?

im talking about the sub section of SMG in this article. the section that begins with, “Power Stars make a return in... ” . you know, the SMG section in this article? we could then say, A new power star is introduced in SMG called the bronze star....

Well, first of all, Bronze Stars never appeared until Super Mario Galaxy 2, and second of all, it looks like Bronze Stars are already mentioned under the Super Mario Galaxy 2 section of this article...
