Mushroom Planet[edit]
The Super Luigi Series then came to the theaters of the Mushroom Planet. I can't find any sources backing up this claim. Was this just assumed knowledge, or what? --

- I heard that somewhere before.... :P
3D, if that helps.. it doesn't.
- I heard that somewhere before.... :P
an article for each of them[edit]
Should I make an article of all of the books?
(p.s. I will have the stuff straight from the book.)
Nope, not enough info is know about each. Just add the info to this article.Knife (talk) 16:17, 18 March 2007 (EDT)
Capitals?[edit]
Is the S in Super Luigi Series supposed to be capital, or minuscale? · SMB (Talk) · 20:42, 15 October 2009 (EDT)
- I'm pretty sure it's never referedt to as the "Super Luigi Series". I'll move it. Hello, I'm Time Turner.
What does Luigi have to say about it?[edit]
Hey, can we have a Transcript of what Luigi has to say about his own adventure alongside what the books say? Or is that somewhere in the Paper Mario TTYD article? Cwjakesteel (talk) 18:29, 13 August 2012 (EDT)
Reference...[edit]
Has no one seriously noticed the obvious reference the whole thing makes? It appears to me to be based on, if not the story, then at least the names of For the Frog the Bell Tolls (there's even a Chapter in the game itself referencing this as well) Here's a link, judge for yourselves: http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Kaeru_no_Tame_ni_Kane_wa_Naru It's mainly the food thing that made me realize it.

64 a reference?[edit]
- Trivia
- The first installment is for sale at 64 coins, one of many references in this game to the Nintendo 64. The next three installments are for 128 coins each, a reference to the canceled game Super Mario 128.
Are the numbers 64 and 128 references? I'm thinking it's because game programmers just like powers to two. (26 = 64, 27 = 128) Another gossip-loving Toad (talk) 09:01, 29 December 2014 (EST)

Toad and his brigade!
