Should I add the stuff about the game boy printer, camera, ect.? (note to self: game boy printer featured in comic {{fakelink|Das Phantom der Piste}})<br>{{user:theused/sig}}

== Split [[GB]] ==

{{Settled TPP}}
{{Proposal outcome|passed|10-0|Split}}
Okay, first of, what is GB? Or should I say, who is GB? It's a bit unclear. Anyways, GB, known in Japanese as GB-kun, is an enormous Game Boy seen in 9-Volt's room in ''WarioWare, inc: Mega Microgame$''. It's capable of speech (if "OK" counts as speech), has a robotic arm it uses to insert cartridges into itself?, and, again, is very large. Not only is it clearly not a normal Game Boy, but it's also anthropomorphized by the ''-kun'' honorific (compare Diskun) and ability to talk(?). Whatever this thing is, it should surely be split.

===Support: split GB===
#{{User|Blinker}} Per proposal. By the way, I'm always a bit confused about the identifier rules. Should this be {{fake link|GB (character)}} or would {{fake link|GB}} suffice?
#{{User|Pseudo}} Seems like this is a distinct character who ''is'' a Game Boy, rather than an ordinary example of a Game Boy. Per proposal.
#{{User|Super Mario RPG}} Per Blinker.
#{{User|Camwoodstock}} Per proposal. In regards to Blinker, we assume it would be {{fake link|GB (character)}}, since [[GB]] is an abbreviation redirect for the Game Boy itself.
#{{User|Hewer}} {{color|green|OK}}
#{{User|ThePowerPlayer}} Per all.
#{{User|Rykitu}} Per all.
#{{User|Pizza Master}} Per all.
#{{User|Jdtendo}} Per all.
#{{User|Nelsonic}} Per all.

===Oppose: do not split GB===

===Comments (GB?)===
By "GB-kun", do you mean the one on the left in this image? <br>[[File:9-Volt prologue WarioWare Mega Microgames.png]]<br> {{User:Camwoodstock/sig}} 18:18, March 14, 2025 (EDT)
:Yes. <small>Well, technically "GB" is just a name in the cast roll but it's fairly obvious that that's what it's referring to, I think.</small> [[User:Blinker|Blinker]] ([[User talk:Blinker|talk]]) 18:24, March 14, 2025 (EDT)
::On identifiers: I've seen both, but usually a well-placed "about" template does the job. [[User:LinkTheLefty|LinkTheLefty]] ([[User talk:LinkTheLefty|talk]]) 11:00, March 15, 2025 (EDT)
:::I think it makes more sense to have "GB" redirect to the Game Boy article, and have GB-kun receive the character identifier. Both are Game Boys, and I assume people will look for the system itself when searching for GB, rather than the rather semi-obscure character that is also a Game Boy. It's like how "Peach" redirects to [[Princess Peach]], and [[Peach (fruit)|the fruit itself]] has the fruit identifier. {{User:Arend/sig}} 11:16, March 15, 2025 (EDT)
