The developers for ''[[Super Mario Galaxy]]'' initially envisioned Guppy having a design comparable to the friendly [[Dolphin]]s from ''[[Super Mario World]]''.

*'''''Super Mario Galaxy'' trading card:''' ''Guppy's bark is definitely worse than his bite. This orca may look menacing, but he's really only aggressive to penguins and Toads. To Mario, Guppy is ultimately harmless, but he does present two challenges: he'll make Mario swim through eight rings in one body of water, and if Mario bumps into him, Guppy will bounce him to the floor. Look for Guppy in the Sea Slide Galaxy and the Deep Dark Galaxy.'' | |||
