==Trivia==
*The Japanese "Oolongtown" moniker appeared on the Glitz Pit building's label on the official ''Paper Mario: The Thousand-Year Door'' website,{{ref needed}} although it was referred to as "Glitzville" everywhere else.
*When the camera pans across Glitzville at the start of Chapter 3, a poster of a [[Moon Cleft]] can be seen behind the [[Hot Dog Stand]], while no normal Clefts appear anywhere in Glitzville.
*In the model of Glitzville that appears when Mario is being lowered into city, the sign that reads "Glitzville" instead reads "Urontown", a partial romanization of its Japanese name.<ref>
