OK, I don't know what stupid thing went down on YouTube, nor do I care. I do, however, think that it is not incorrect to refer to them as multiple versions of MIPS considering that is what the base model is - plus, internally, the numerous rabbits in 64DS are ''also'' considered MIPS (plural). Character/species variance is [[Yoshi|hardly]] [[Toad|a]] [[Magikoopa|novel]] [[Wiggler|concept]] [[Boom Boom|in]] [[Birdo|this]] [[Big Boo|franchise]], and acting like it can't happen in this case because [no reason given] is just silly - especially when this very game turned a bunch of species into specific characters for the duel partner mechanic. This goes doubly so for Hoot, who is only a nameless generic owl in the original Japanese.

:We as ''Mario'' nerds understand the difference between "individual" and "species" is not fixed. However, I think saying "Several rabbits resembling MIPS can be seen gathering near the Item Shop" is an accurate and adequately neutral way of presenting the information that does not preclude either interpretation. Are we saying these rabbits are not MIPS? No. Are we saying they definitely are MIPS? Also no. Did the developers of ''Mario Party 3'' call these rabbits MIPS? No. Do they look like MIPS? Absolutely, or at least to you and me (and surely many other users). The ''Mario Party'' games on the N64 were aesthetically informed by ''Super Mario 64'', so it also makes sense. But still, we don't know explicitly, and unlike Boom Boom or Yoshi, MIPS is a much more obscure character with a more generic design. (Not saying the rabbit looks realistic, but Yoshi is Yoshi.) These could easily be generic rabbits that just also look like MIPS, and I don't think it is a good use of our time and energy to scrutinize it further. - [[User:Nintendo101|Nintendo101]] ([[User talk:Nintendo101|talk]]) 00:35, January 22, 2025 (EST)
