Relation to the Koopa Bros.?

Guys, I just thought of something; this deserves no higher place than Trivia, though. Do you think Raphael's appearance in Paper Mario may have been a nod to how the Koopa Bros. are a play on the Ninja Turtles? The red Ninja Turtle was named Raphael, no? And the leader of the Koopa Bros. was named Red. I'm not saying that Raphael in the game has anything to do with the Koopa Bros., but do you think it is worth a mention in the Trivia section that Nintendo may have planned it that way as an external reference?--Dreyfus2006 18:14, 18 June 2007 (EDT)


That's an amazing coincidence, but I think that's all it is. Feel free to make it trivia, though.SaudyTalk!

Maybe... hm... that's a good point, come to think... but a little to far-off. Max2 (talk) so, maybe not.
