| Given that multiple sources call it "fire" and no sources seem to say they're just generic bouncy balls or anything, I think it's pretty safe to say that Iggy and Larry's SMW projectiles are fire. Their sprites clearly showing them tucking their heads into their shells before pulling the object out through the head-hole, indicating they're breathing it out. Of course, the technical reason was presumably to avoid all the troubles the changed tiling that giving those sprites a sufficiently-sized open mouth would require, but still, if they were just throwing balls, there'd be no reason to remove the head graphic. Short answer, it's a stylized fireball. As for the "star" in my edit summary, I was referring to how on the fireball's graphic is a white area that's shaped like a star.

| :Problem is, Ludwig in the same game was able to breathe fire just fine, without even needing to tuck his head in (not to mention Bowser never did that in any of the games), so it shouldn't be an issue with Iggy or Larry.

| ::They are a ''completely'' different coded object. Additionally, his fire was shorter, and most importantly, he only ever shot his straight forwards, and not down a rapidly-changing incline, so it could easily just be shown coming straight out of his mouth in a line. With Iggy and Larry, the incline's change mean's there's no way for them to shoot fire in one rigid direction with any effectiveness (note the fact that the rotateable background layer was already in use for the platforms, and as such couldn't be used for the boss or projectiles), necessitating them to send an object that could go down any incline without looking like it was trailing unrealistically, as not only would each angle of the platform need the same visual angle on the projectile, but keep the same hitbox throughout, necessitating a circular shape. Another fallacy with that comparison is that on the object used for Morton, Roy, and Ludwig, the head's graphic is actually firmly attached to the body, unlike Iggy and Larry; in fact, on the former three, the tiles don't even differentiate until halfway up their muzzles. Basically, you're comparing apples to oranges something massive here. [[User:Doc von Schmeltwick|Doc von Schmeltwick]] ([[User talk:Doc von Schmeltwick|talk]]) 20:37, 30 November 2018 (EST)

| :::Actually, Ludwig's head isn't firmly attached to the body (he needs to tuck his head into his shell before spinning around in it). [[User:Weedle McHairybug|Weedle McHairybug]] ([[User talk:Weedle McHairybug|talk]]) 20:39, 30 November 2018 (EST)

| ::::The spinning shell is yet another coded object, actually. As far as I've ever seen, he never appears "headless" but still standing. [[User:Doc von Schmeltwick|Doc von Schmeltwick]] ([[User talk:Doc von Schmeltwick|talk]]) 20:42, 30 November 2018 (EST)

| :::::Fine point taken, but they could have used something a bit closer to a fireball, like, I don't know, have Iggy and Larry just open their mouths and have them spew giant fireballs similar to Fire Bros in SMB3 (especially when, if Mario can fire fireballs the traditional manner in those boss fights, Iggy and Larry most certainly could fire them Fire Bros style).

| ::::::Only way for that to fit in their mouths and still have the mouths conform to the tile size specifications would make the fireballs too small to be even remotely a danger. Particularly given most of those fights are spent jumping anyways. And even then, there's still the issue of launching angle not being consistent, and in order to give the impression of sometihng being launched from the mouth, the mouth has to be pointing a specific way; not possible when rigidly bound by tile constraints.

| The three pages you made have been deleted for being stub articles. Please put as much effort into an article as you can upon its creation, which includes more than two sentences, templates, and an image if one is available. {{User:Alex95/sig}} 18:38, 18 January 2019 (EST)

| ==Sources==
| |
| Hello, do you have a source for the content you added in [https://www.mariowiki.com/index.php?title=Mario_Day&curid=226423&diff=2620691&oldid=2618440 this edit]? Thanks! (It needs a source due to it being a specific limited-time event in a game that is not a ''Mario'' game) {{User:Doomhiker/sig}} 14:23, March 15, 2019 (EDT)
| |
| *Like I said, the game itself would be a good source to go to. But fine, here's a source: https://nintendowire.com/news/2019/03/14/jump-up-and-join-in-pocket-camps-mario-themed-fishing-tourney/ [[User:Weedle McHairybug|Weedle McHairybug]] ([[User talk:Weedle McHairybug|talk]]) 14:27, March 15, 2019 (EDT)

| ::You can use : continue a conversation. Anyways, per [[MarioWiki:Citations]]: "''For the most part, you don't need to provide a reference for basic information taken directly from the games. This includes level layouts, gameplay mechanics, item and enemy descriptions, characters, the plot of the game, etc. However, if information is more obscure and its validity may be questioned, citing specific text found in the game (i.e. dialogue in an RPG), its manual or some other official guide book will help maintain the wiki's credibility.''". In a couple of years this event will be obscure due to it being a limited-time event in a game that frequently has events, so having a source is better for the future. Thanks for the source! {{User:Doomhiker/sig}} 14:32, March 15, 2019 (EDT)

| == Italics ==
| |
|
| |
| Please remember to ''italicize'' game and publication titles. This is done by placing two apostrophes (not quotation marks) on both sides of the title, outside of any links. For example, <code><nowiki>''[[Super Mario Bros.]]''</nowiki></code> becomes ''[[Super Mario Bros.]]'' {{User:Alex95/sig}} 19:34, July 25, 2019 (EDT)
| |
|
| |
| == Italic title ==
| |
|
| |
| You don't need to use {{tem|italic title}} if the page title doesn't have an identifier like "(''Luigi's Mansion 3'')". {{User:Mario jc/sig}} 10:12, November 2, 2019 (EDT)
| |
|
| |
| Just another thing, you don't need to put the names in the inboxes manually if they correspond with the article title, since they'll be there automatically. Also, instead of "Floor whatever" it would look better to put the name of the floor (e.g Garden Suites) [[User:Mario Sakuraba|Mario Sakuraba]] ([[User talk:Mario Sakuraba|talk]]) 11:12, November 2, 2019 (EDT)

|
| |
| == Leaks ==
| |
|
| |
| This information is more suited on the corresponding "Pre-release and unused content" pages. We also don't have a template for citations, and you're leaving broken references as a result. Follow the format outlined on [[MarioWiki:Citations]] instead.
| |
|
| |
| Also, please don't give the leak an unofficial name like the "infamous 2020 Nintendo Data Leaks", just describe it in general and neutral terms. {{User:Mario jc/sig}} 08:31, April 22, 2021 (EDT)
| |
|
| |
| == References ==
| |
|
| |
| Please read over [[MarioWiki:References]] before adding further content, as I've had to [[Special:Diff/3489666|revert multiple]] [[Special:Diff/3133099|of your]] [[Special:Diff/3111817|edits]] of this type already. Just passing resemblances to something from another game are not references; it would have to be intentional to be a reference (hence "referring" to something), so please avoid adding such "references" unless they are obviously intentional or confirmed to be. {{User:Mario jc/sig}} 08:48, October 23, 2021 (EDT)
