Talk:Small Mario

This talk page or section has a conflict or a question that needs to be answered. Please try to help and resolve the issue by leaving a comment.

Should this be moved to "Big Mario" as "Small Mario" is the regular form after losing a mushroom so technically "Big Mario" would be the form with a mushroom. See how that works out? Marioguy1 (talk)

Never mind that, I think this article should be deleted as it represents just Mario. The forms articles are about Mario's different forms which are created due to power-ups this form does not even use a power-up. It is the result of losing a power-up which therefore makes it regular Mario. If you don't understand this here's the simplified version: Mario + Power-up = Power-up Mario. Power-up Mario - Power-up = Small Mario? I don't think so, even math disagrees with this, it is as wrong as 1+1=2-1=0! Marioguy1 (talk)

Well, Mario is about the character with all of his forms. If we delete Small Mario, we have no article about this special form. I agree that it's basically just the regular Mario, but hey, we're the Mario Wiki. Which means we can get more in depth about his forms, and also have articles about things like that.

Theoretically, this article could be merged with the Mario section, cause it is none-other than regular Mario. On the other hand, this is a form that appeared throughout many games, so you cannot just merge it with... say... the SMB section, because it also appeared in SMB2,SMB3, NSMB, etc. etc. I am however fine with either way, as long as it fits the article. - Gabumon^(talk) 08:07, 13 October 2009 (EDT)

Then why not merging both pages ? Koopalmier 15:12, 26 October 2009 (EDT)

Wait, what two pages? Mario and Small Mario? "Big Mario" doesn't make sense. BlickBlock

If we delete Small Mario, we would have to Tiny Wario under the same reasons, 'cause Tiny Wario is just a powerless Wario, see my point?Clarkmaster 03:13, 11 January 2010 (EST)

We wouldn't have to delete Tiny Wario at all. While Tiny Wario is a form, Small Mario isn't. Small Mario is simply Mario without any forms (Super Mario being Mushroom Mario). Mario simply isn't portrayed as being small so much anymore because he's already fairly short, so they wouldn't be able to market him as well if they made his standard form any noticeably different from his other forms. As it seems, all of the latest non-sidescrolling installations of the game seem to have merged the standard form and Super form into one, per my above marketing reasoning.

Woah there hoss, Have ya played New SMB (DS & Wii)? Looks to me that Mario and company are allways shown in there Super forms, when attacked they lose one form for another, just like any other form (i.e. Mini Mario+Fire Flower= Fire Mario) Tiny Wario is just the same, now I aint play none of the Wario games so I could be mistaken, but the form does appear to be similar in terms of vulnurability, size, and annoyance.Clarkmaster 03:49, 11 January 2010 (EST)
