User talk:Owencrazyboy9

Welcome to my talk page! If you want to chat here, feel free to do so. However, there are a few rules to keep in mind:

1. Don't type curse words on this page. I'm VERY sensitive when it comes to that. If that does happen, though, I'll just censor it to protect the innocence of children everywhere.
2. Don't insert spam over and over again, flame someone or insult me or any of the other users. If that happens, the comments shown will get removed or altered, no questions asked! You have been warned!
3. If an archived page is unprotected, don't edit it. If that happens, the edits will get undone and I'll give the offender a warning.
4. If you issue me a false warning or reminder for a completely ridiculous subject, it will be appealed and hopefully overturned.
5. Make sure the talk that happens here relates to video games or the wiki in general. Other Nintendo-based wikis are fine to chat here, too. Any unrelated talk gets removed.
6. No friend requests. Not to mention, I WILL NOT respond to friend requests. There is already one here, sure, but no more after that.
7. No instances of chat that feel like they belong to the forums. They will be removed if any forum chat comments are seen.
8. Removing or modifying warnings or comments are completely unacceptable! If that happens, they will be brought back (if they were deleted) or restored to its original brilliance (if they were changed) and you will be punished for it...maybe.
9. To add a new header, just hit the "+" button next to the edit button. This will bring the next talk discussion, which will go on the bottom.
10. DO NOT move talk discussions from a place to a random spot, because the edit will get undone and you'll be reminded about it.
11. If you forgot to sign your comment, don't bother making another edit to switch it. I can look in the history to see who posted the comment without me having to put the unsigned template.
12. Don't impersonate any of the users on the wiki. You could get in big trouble for doing so; that's BIG with a capital B. If you want to see a good example of impersonation, look here.
13. This doesn't happen often, but if I changed or reverted one of your edits on this wiki, please don't bother asking why I did it. Usually I have a good reason for doing so in the edit summary and can provide videographic or photographic evidence, if necessary. Sometimes, though, if you do ask, I'll just answer on the talk page, if possible. Sure, a lengthy conversation might ensue, but we can hopefully smooth out the rough edges and come to an agreement.
14. If by any chance I get blocked temporarily, don't leave me messages on my talk page for me to look at later, even if you are feeling kinda sorry for the whole thing. First of all, I can't log back in anyway, so what's the point? Second of all, it's actually encouraged to not do so as shown here.
15. Lastly, just have fun! As long as you follow these rules, this chat page will be a good spot to hang out.

Smash Ultimate

But the thing is, they always appear as the final bosses for the characters' storylines that they do. Therefore, they are intended as specific entities, and aren't the randomly-generated thing like in the middle of Melee's classic mode. Metal Mario is Bowser's absolute final boss, and Giant DK is Jigglypuff's (with her story being an extended callback to Smash 64). Therefore, not having them is purely withholding information.

Oh, yeah? You could say the same thing about Bowser's fourth round, because they're always giant every time they're fought and they're not even at the end. Also, "final boss" is misleading. While most characters fight a specific boss from one of their franchises (e.g. Kirby vs. Marx), other times they either fight Master Hand or they don't. Take Mega Man for example. He fights Dr. Mario first and then Mewtwo afterwards. His actual boss fight takes place before the final round, which is against Galleom from the Subspace Emissary. Again, Bowser fights Rathalos whose round is before the Bonus Game, which is before the fight against Mario, and then later, Metal Mario. In this case, the only bosses that should count are the ones with health bars at the top of the screen instead of a Stamina Battle-esque HP counter at the bottom of the screen or a damage percentage meter. – Owencrazyboy9 (talk) 11:09, 25 December 2018 (EST)

That is wholly irrelevant. They are the final obstacle fought in the campaign, and as such the final boss. Rathalos isn't the boss for Bowser, but is for other characters who face him. Games can have multiple final bosses; Kirby Super Star, for example, has King Dedede, Dyna Blade, Meta Knight, Wham Bam Rock, and Marx all acting as final bosses for their respective modes. The fact is, Metal Mario and Giant DK were individual bosses in the original SSB, and they're even moreso here. Not having them is misleading in that it's not acknowledging they exist, but it's outright hiding the fact that certain entities that aren't the ones otherwise listed act as the final battle for the mode. The stamina vs. % thing doesn't matter either; Metal Mario acted as a boss in the first two games, and had a %. And yes, that's still a boss, just as much as Sagat is a boss in Street Fighter II.

In case you want to use it as a reference, SmashWiki classifies Giant Donkey Kong and Metal Mario in Ultimate as minor bosses. 19:36, 4 January 2019 (EST)

Looked it up. Yeah, they are classified as "minor." Even though the fact stands that they are not classified as "bosses" (e.g. They don't have a health bar at the top of the screen), we can maybe make this distinction in the actual template itself. Waiting to see other's thoughts first before going through. – Owencrazyboy9 (talk) 20:55, 4 January 2019 (EST)
