Er... hello. My name is Quizmelon, writer of the TV Tomorrow section in the 'Shroom, and unofficial grammar-checker of Super Mario Wiki articles. (You'd be surprised by the number of mistakes people make when writing articles.) Good at minor edits, worse at major ones, and I am terrible at anything to do with images. If you have any questions for me (which would be nice, as that doesn't normally happen) please go to my talk page, which I assume there will be a link to below.

I really need to get a better signature.



I decided to jazz up my user page a bit with a picture of my favourite character.

King Boo in Mario Party 8
King Boo. My favourite character.











I have decided to go on a Hunt for the Best Trivia. I will put my favourite pieces of Trivia that I find here.

Trivia Collection

NES: For a time the Nintendo 3DS eShop mistakenly stated Mario Party: Island Tour to be a title on the NES.

Family Computer Disk System: When sped up about 16 times, the GameCube menu ambience is revealed to be a slowed-down version of the startup tune for the Disk System BIOS.

Game Boy Colour: In many English-speaking countries (e.g. Canada, Great Britain, and Australia), the correct spelling for color is colour. Despite this, the name of the console was never changed outside of America to reflect this difference.

Nintendo 64DD: If there is no game inserted into the system, the start-up appears as usual but Mario then appears and plays around with the Nintendo 64 logo. The N shape changes when Mario interacts with it.

Nintendo GameCube: The GameCube is often abbreviated as "GCN", although in reality this would be an incorrect abbreviation as it would stand for "GameCube Nintendo". A correct abbreviation would be "NGC", which is also the Japanese version of the abbreviation.

Wii: This is the first Nintendo console whose highest selling game does not feature Mario in it.

Wii U: The Wii U was released in North America on the same date 11 years after the Nintendo GameCube, 14 years after the Game Boy Color, and one day less than 6 years after the original Wii.
