Trivia

  • The Japanese "Oolongtown" moniker appeared on the Glitz Pit building's label on the official Paper Mario: The Thousand-Year Door website,[citation needed] although it was referred to as "Glitzville" everywhere else.
  • When the camera pans across Glitzville at the start of Chapter 3, a poster of a Moon Cleft can be seen behind the Hot Dog Stand, while no normal Clefts appear anywhere in Glitzville.
  • In the model of Glitzville that appears when Mario is being lowered into city, the sign that reads "Glitzville" instead reads "Urontown", a partial romanization of its Japanese name.[1][2]
