I'm not sure how something this generic deserves to have its own article. It's just a cursor, nothing more. Shall we delete it? Toadette icon CTTT.pngFont of Archivist Toadette's signature(T|C) 19:23, 3 December 2018 (EST)

Merge it with the section on the SNES article regarding the mouse, I'd say. Doc von Schmeltwick (talk) 19:27, 3 December 2018 (EST)
Perhaps we could instead create on article for pointers/other navigational things , such as the pointer in the Nintendo 3DS and Nintendo Switch version of Captain Toad: Treasure Tracker as this would likely be an exepction in generic subjects policy as pointers/other navigational things uses vary.

Given the content on this page, it would normally qualify as a generic subject, and should therefore be deleted.

However, in light of Doomhiker's suggestion above, I'd say that we should likely expand this article. Other games such as Super Mario Galaxy 2, Super Mario 3D World, and the 3DS/Switch versions of Captain Toad: Treasure Tracker make extended use of a "cursor" which might be worth documenting since it's potentially less generic. If that happens, I say we rename this page to Cursor.

Otherwise, I'd propose deleting it as a generic subject.

As for cursers that should definitely be included in the article if this option passes would include the curser from 3DS/Switch versions of Captain Toad: Treasure Tracker, as that curser can stun enemies and throw turnips, and also the curser from Super Mario 3D World, with its ability being similar from the curser for Captain Toad (except for the turnip-trowing capabilities). Another potential curser to be included in this article would be the cursers from the Super Mario Galaxy series, with its ability to trow Star Bits.
