I have been trying to find where does MC Ballyhoo is named "C.O. Mentarista" in Spanish NOA. The guy or girl who put this information did it in 2013. Also in Mario Party: Top 100 minigames his name is the same as NOE. I will try to see if in smash bros ultimate his spirit is named C.O. Mentarista (even tho the previously mentioned person put this in 2013). Obviously i checked the manual. [[User:ElotroFer|ElotroFer]]
Is his name pronuonced M-C Ballyhoo or Mc Ballyhoo? Sorry if this belongs on the forum. [[User:Maxlover2|Max2]]

::Ballyhoo just looks somewhat similar to [[Chuck Quizmo]] with his large lips and hat. Chuck Quizmo is a worm-like being, while Ballyhoo has a humanoid body with arms and legs, they aren't the same. I also think the info should be removed, it can be mentioned that they bear a resemblance, though. --[[User:Grandy02|Grandy02]] 08:19, 5 October 2008 (EDT)

== Merge with [[Big Top]] ==
{{settled TPP}}
{{proposal outcome|passed|16-0|Merge}}
There's a number of merge proposals going on at the moment, so I guess now's a good time to throw [[Big Top|this hat]] into the ring.
[[MC Ballyhoo]] and [[Big Top]] are two characters that, together, host the [[Star Carnival]] in [[Mario Party 8]]. They are never seen apart from each other as far as I can tell (though I haven't played MP8 in a while admittedly), all of their official artwork depicts them together, and all of their official profiles group them together as "Ballyhoo & Big Top" or "MC Ballyhoo & Big Top". Considering they share their role and have virtually identical profiles and statistics sections, I think it's pretty clear that keeping these articles split goes against [[MarioWiki:Once and only once]], and it's inconsistent with how other inseparable duos are handled (like [[Dribble & Spitz]]), so I think it would only be fair to merge [[Big Top]] to this article and rename it to "MC Ballyhoo & Big Top". (In case it needs to be clarified, both [[MC Ballyhoo]] and [[Big Top]] will be redirects and the Big Top redirect will stay in [[:Category:Clothing]].)

===Merge===
#{{User|Dive Rocket Launcher}} Per proposal.
#{{User|Camwoodstock}} The [[Dribble & Spitz]] comparision is apt, we feel. Per proposal!
#{{User|SolemnStormcloud}} [[File:MC_Ballyhoo_Dialogue_Portrait_MP8.png|32px]] "''Astounding! Our two pages are about to become one, Big Top!''" [[File:Big_Top_Dialogue_Portrait_MP8.png|32px]] "''Two hosts! One page! Best way to go!''" (Per proposal.)
#{{User|EvieMaybe}} lots of character duo merges going on lately, huh?
#{{User|ThePowerPlayer}} Per proposal.
#{{User|Sparks}} Per all.
#{{User|Rykitu}} Per all.
#{{User|Pizza Master}} Also like [[Kat & Ana]]. Per proposal.
#{{User|Mario}} HAR HAR HARRRRRR!!!!
#{{User|MarioComix}} Per all. My memory banks are telling me there's a niche case where Big Top does fly off on his own, maybe in the Solo mode, but Ballyhoo is still talking in the same cutscene or something, so they're not even apart for long.
#{{User|Hewer}} Inseparable duo in the same vein as the WarioWare ones (perhaps even more so), per proposal.
#{{User|Nelsonic}} Per all.
#{{User|PaperSplash}} It's about time.
#{{User|Technetium}} Per all.
#{{User|Killer Moth}} Per all.
#{{User|SComic}} Per all.
===Do not merge===
===Comments===
[[:File:Msatomdesu MC Ballyhoo Top Hatless.png|This artwork]] by [[Masanori Sato]] does show [[MC Ballyhoo|Ballyhoo]] by himself but it would be silly to keep Ballyhoo and [[Big Top]] split over one artwork when the duo is always together in [[Mario Party 8]].--{{User:Pizza Master/sig}} 19:45, February 6, 2025 (EST)
:I specified "official artwork" because I don't think this is official, since it came from Masanori Sato's Instagram page. It's [[MarioWiki:Coverage#Fan work by creators officially involved with the brand|fan work by creators officially involved with the brand]]. {{User:Dive Rocket Launcher/sig}} 19:52, February 6, 2025 (EST)
::Right, my mistake. [[User:Pizza Master|Pizza Master]] ([[User talk:Pizza Master|talk]])
