Merging with floor
I didn't know that Wonder literally calls it a BlockMarioBrothers internally, that's a pretty strong point to merge them together. I considered just writing the info into floor originally, but decided against it because I considered the form factor to be more important. The floor in Wonder is certainly block-like, and I feel it would be strange to not classify it as a block. I see it similarly to the relationship of Flimsy Lifts and Donut Blocks, or ice and Ice Blocks. --PopitTart (talk) 16:17, January 29, 2025 (EST)
- If there's a merge, I wouldn't mind reclassifying the original floors as blocks. They seem like a direct predecessor, not unlike Shellcreepers and Koopas. LinkTheLefty (talk) 16:25, January 29, 2025 (EST)
- Well the thing is that NSMB and NSMBU bring back the floors in very un-block like form, where they exist in contrast to the blocks they inspired. I feel calling those blocks would be equally as strange.--PopitTart (talk) 16:37, January 29, 2025 (EST)
