(First topic)[edit]

Cractus has a crown. Should he (or she, or it) be listed under our kings section? Jdrawer 10:55, 4 February 2012 (EST)

Split?[edit]

I'm already aware of the difference in translation differences, and even Nintendo Japan has admitted twice that they've worked on this. The only problem is, the WWMI Cractus was more likely a reference to the original Cractus in JP name and appearance.

I'm not exactly sure what you're arguing here, can you be a bit more clear as to why you think it should be split? If it's based on the Japanese name then that feels a bit too overboard, they could have just given Cractus an updated Japanese name and/or fixed a typo ("-wana" is not really that different from "-wani"; also see Battle Beetle).

Based on the Japanese name. But I don't think this is just a typo here. So should I wait for further promotion/interview? Sprite of Pi'illoper from Mario & Luigi: Dream TeamBlhte(A****** c*****) 00:24, November 3, 2023 (EDT)
Personal stance on this aside, yes, you should. Best not to make a jump like that without confirmation. S o m e t h i n g o n e ! A Big Bandit from Paper Mario: The Thousand-Year Door. 00:28, November 3, 2023 (EDT)

Sorry for restarting with this but this interview comes out and one of the caption said the WWMI Cractus is just looks like with the original one, so how should we treat this? Sprite of Pi'illoper from Mario & Luigi: Dream TeamBlhte(A****** c*****) 05:33, December 22, 2023 (EST)

We already have Merlon and co. merged, even though they're heavily implied to be different individuals in each game with a lot of design variance to go along with it. I don't think we have anything to gain by splitting Move It Cractus, so organization should take precedence over lore here. --Waluigi's head icon in Mario Kart 8 Deluxe. Too Bad!
