Nintendo DSi vs Nintendo 3DS

Mario54671, please stop edit warring with UltraMario and talk about it before making the edit. If we can come to a resolution then the edit can be made, but right now you two are just undoing eachother's edits.

Now, what I would like to point out about the DSi is that it uses the exact same cartridges as the DS, meanwhile the 3DS has new cartridges for the 3D games (at least that's what I heard). The DSi is basically a big DS with a camera; it uses the same cartridges, has the same functions, etc. I would personally say that the DSi is definitely a sequel to the DS.

It isn't, though, and you basically explained it for me. Nintendo themselves came out not long after it came out and clarified it wasn't a successor to the DS, and their REAL successor was still in development. If the company themselves say it, I say it's not worth debating, and the whole idea should be definitely rejected. If we were to go by this ridiculous idea, then you should at least keep it consistent by also including it in the 3DS section. Since after all, it SHOULD say "successor to the DSi" based on what you guys think (even though Nintendo came out and said that it's the successor to the DS AND the DSi, as in, they're the same thing, as in, the whole idea is flat out wrong)

Source?

"Calling the DS Lite, DSi, or the DSi XL a successor to the DS is unquestionably incorrect. Nintendo made it clear that the 3DS is the successor. But if it's somehow essential to include them, then this is the best way to do so." Do you have a source for that quote? Xzelion^ETC

There's the E3 2010 press conference where Iwata discusses how they've given a lot of thought to the screen, "...because of course, Nintendo 3DS is a successor to Nintendo DS."

There's also common sense. Why would they make a big deal about introducing the 3DS and NOT the DS Lite, or the DSi? Calling the DS Lite a successor to the DS is like calling Gameboy Micro or Gameboy Advance SP a successor to Gameboy Advance, OR like calling the slimmer Wii from the Wii Family Edition a "successor" to the Wii when in actuality, the Wii U is the successor. They're the same thing, they do the same things, they just redesigned them! It's common sense, Nintendo doesn't need to tell you that.

Hi

wanna be friends user:meeper :0 =)

Edit summaries

What you said here on Super Smash Bros. Ultimate's page was very rude. There's no need for comments like "Those who state otherwise are clearly vision impaired and have no business editing on this site" anywhere on the wiki (and please don't discourage editing either). If you think something needs to be brought up, do it on a talk page. EDIT: The one before it was also rather condescending. 01:15, 13 December 2018 (EST)

If it's any consolation, I'll help you pick the frame for your new glasses.

RE: SMM2 SMB1 Sky Theme

I had already stated in a previous summary shortening the information that I had moved it to theme's page (Ground Theme (Super Mario Bros.)#Super Smash Bros. Brawl) which was linked in the section and is the more relevant location for this information. But thanks for providing that proof (You may want to tell DYKGaming that, too) - this is something that should be sourced in the main article as well. Mario JC 22:48, August 24, 2019 (EDT)

Yes, I already commented on their video. As it happens, the person responsible for the video cited this site as a reference for that, which is what prompted me to want to change it. People really need to be careful what they post here, because I often see this site cited for questionable "facts" which tend to originate from one person who, to be fair, probably just made a mistake, but nonetheless ended up spreading a lie. Thankfully this particular instance was just trivial knowledge, but it could've been worse.

NSMB Ghost House Theme

Regarding the New Super Mario Bros. Ghost House theme and whether or not it's an arrangement of "Obake Yashiki BGM," it's not just that the NSMB theme is played in a similar style to the SMW theme, but it is actually the same four notes (B, Db, A, C) played in the same style just in a slightly altered pattern. This makes the beginning of the NSMB theme an arrangement of "Obake Yashiki BGM" rather than simply being inspired by it. I hope this clears up any confusion! ToxicOJ (talk) 11:15, November 23, 2023 (EST)

Calling it an "arrangement" is still incorrect, and that was my main point. This isn't like, say, Super Mario Bros. Wonder's Airship theme, where a good portion of it is original, but then the main subject is taken directly from the SMB1 Airship theme from Super Mario Maker. It doesn't matter if the openings use the same notes, the opening motif isn't the main subject of the theme. The main subjects are completely different. We're talking about a mere few seconds of music here, not an entire section or block of music. But yes, because this one sounds a lot more like it's intentionally evoking the opening of Super Mario World's theme, I left it in and just rewrote the section.

In fact, I take issue with the entire page. I didn't want to completely tear it down, but I wanted to see if there was any way to rewrite it, because there are many things wrong with it. For example, many of these examples of Super Mario World's theme being "reused" are terrible. Super Mario Kart's Ghost Valley theme is a good example (far better than New Super Mario Bros.), but Mario Kart: Super Circuit being included there because of "Boo Lake" and "Broken Pier" is a bit silly. This theme reuses the Super Mario Kart Ghost Valley main subject, yes, but it doesn't include any portion of Super Mario World's Ghost House theme at all; it only takes the original portion of Ghost Valley… the part that ISN'T like Super Mario World at all. The portion that Super Mario Kart referenced from Super Mario World is completely gone. Therefore Mario Kart: Super Circuit, Mario Kart Tour, and Mario Kart 8 Deluxe should be removed entirely. In fact, I find it funny that Super Circuit was included here, yet Banshee Boardwalk from Mario Kart 64 was excluded… even though that theme ALSO reuses the Ghost Valley motif. By these standards, Banshee Boardwalk should also be included, but isn't. So even here there doesn't seem to be any consistency.

This is the problem when your standard of what is considered an "arrangement" is only a mere few seconds of music and vague similarities. ANYTHING can be considered an "arrangement" by those standards through special mental gymnastics. Things become too opinion-based and less objective, and it becomes impossible to properly distinguish what is an intentional and what is merely coincidence. And case in point, Mario Kart 64 being excluded shows that this vague standard isn't consistent at all.
