Talk:Super Mario 3D World + Bowser's Fury

Should I go for it?

Just unlocked King Ka-Thunk's castle. Should I charge in or wait until I have a group? --75.108.152.71 10:45, May 6, 2021 (EDT)

God Slayer Bowser...

Apparently, at a Japanese press conference, the big dark Bowser is known as God Slayer Bowser. Should we use that as a tentative name or...?PrPro03 (talk) 13:02, January 12, 2021 (EST)

I'm not too familiar with how we handle this sort of thing, but for now until it's name comes up in English, we could use it. If the page is created, it should be marked with {{another language}}. Nightwicked Bowser

name is pretty much confirmed to be made-up. Ray Trace^(T|C) 15:36, January 12, 2021 (EST)

I probably should have asked for a source first. Nightwicked Bowser

Yes, the name came from this Twitter user. I'd advise getting your source directly from official Nintendo-released material rather than someone's word from Twitter. Mario JC 19:45, January 12, 2021 (EST)

I found it's name: Fury Bowser --Chompers (talk) 14:51, January 13, 2021 (EST)

...That was resolved a while ago... Superbound (talk) 14:59, January 13, 2021 (EST)

Cat coins

I'm not very sure about this idea, but it's possible that the small tokens could act like moon shards rather than green stars --Chompers (talk) 18:59, January 12, 2021 (EST)

The tokens are called Cat Shine Shards, and they do act more like moon shards. - Bowser64 (Talk - Sandbox)

Keep the timestamp in mind when replying; this was posted before the game came out when we knew little about the game. Mario JC 22:31, April 10, 2021 (EDT)

Bowser's Fury formatting

Should we italicalise just "Bowser's Fury" as well, even if it's just talking about the mode itself? Nightwicked Bowser

If refered as full title (Super Mario 3D World + Bowser's Fury is Nintendo Switch game.) then I yes, but if we are talking about mode as standalone entity (Bowser's Fury is new game mode added in SM3DW port.), then not. At least that's my opinion. Superbound (talk) 14:59, January 13, 2021 (EST)

Typically, for citations the greater project (e.g. album, book, video game, etc.) it italicized, but individual portions within are to just have quotation marks around them. The collection of short stories by J. D. Salinger is rendered as Nine Stories but one of the stories within is rendered as "Uncle Wiggily in Connecticut". The Beatles album is rendered as Abbey Road but an individual song on the album is rendered as "Come Together". For video games, I'm inclined to think the most appropriate render for individual modes or minigames within a larger package with follow a similar convention: the game as a whole is Super Mario 3D World + Bowser's Fury, but the latter mode itself should be rendered as "Bowser's Fury". - Nintendo101 (talk) 15:13, January 13, 2021 (EST)

I'm thinking it should be along the lines of Bowser's Minions and Bowser Jr.'s Journey, which are already italicised across different articles. We should instead determine whether standalone-adventure "sub-games" like these should be italicised or not. Mario JC 23:55, January 13, 2021 (EST)

Well, I can make a proposal about it, but I'm unsure what would be the definition. Would "a mode in the game that has significantly different gameplay" work? Superbound (talk) 10:40, January 20, 2021 (EST)

I wouldn't phrase it like that. Why would it matter if the mode has significantly different gameplay? - Nintendo101 (talk) 11:49, January 20, 2021 (EST)

I need to mention something. I brought up this discussion because at the time Bowser's Fury wasn't formatted in italics on this article, even though we had been doing that formatting with things like Minion Quest. Then after I created this section, I noticed that Bowser's Fury had been formatted like that in several other articles, so I went ahead and did the same here. Now I don't know if this discussion is entirely necessary. Nightwicked Bowser

I thought the gameplay value mattered since Bowser's Minions and Bowser Jr.'s Journey are italicized and have different gameplay, while Donkey Kong Adventure, another standalone mode, doesn't have that much distinct gameplay and I assumed that in consequence isn't italicized. Am I wrong? Do you have a better way to phrase it? Superbound (talk) 15:07, January 21, 2021 (EST)

Nintendo Life information

There has been a bunch of new info that has just surfaced, as described in this article from Nintendo Life We should get this added. --Moustachetana (talk) 07:37, January 17, 2021 (EST)

Leaked Gameplay Information

Because the game was leaked a week early, there's some videos of both the first 20-odd minutes of the mode and the ending. There was also a completion play-through uploaded but I think Nintendo took that down by now. Should information from these videos be posted to this article? --Mjmannella (talk) 13:51, February 8, 2021 (EST)

The videos were already removed due to copyright claims, it's better to avoid information that then becomes unsourced, we can wait until Friday.--Mister Wu (talk) 15:01, February 9, 2021 (EST)

We need the article about fonts used in Mario games

Super Mario 3D World + Bowser's Fury uses Rodin NTLG instead of Seurat used in Wii U version of Super Mario 3D World. So I prepared the content for the article about fonts used in Mario games:

Typeface	Foundry	Description	Games
Rodin NTLG (ロダンNTLG)	Fontworks	Rodin with New Type Labo Gothic kana. The kana stroke ends are horizontal or vertical.	Super Mario Odyssey Super Mario 3D World + Bowser's Fury
Seurat (スーラ)	Fontworks	A rounded sans serif typeface.	New Super Mario Bros. Wii Super Mario 3D Land New Super Mario Bros. 2 New Super Mario Bros. U New Super Luigi U Super Mario 3D World New Super Mario Bros. U Deluxe

Thanks. 36.85.216.85 10:00, February 11, 2021 (EST)

I support this. I suppose this can be expanded to include the iconic "Super Mario" font that I don't know the name of, as well as the various fonts used in partner franchises such as Donkey Kong Country. -- KOOPA CON CARNE 10:08, February 11, 2021 (EST)

That font is a custom font used since Super Mario 3D Land, so, that font has no name. 36.85.216.85 10:19, February 11, 2021 (EST)

Luigi Bros.

Is Luigi Bros. in this? Otherwise it should be noted in the changes right?
The preceding unsigned comment was added by LetsPlayNintendoITA (talk).

I don't believe so, at least not at the start of the game (though I doubt it's unlockable). Mario JC 19:39, February 12, 2021 (EST)

Yes, Luigi Bros. is actually still in this port I can confirm. --KingGeoshiKoopshi64 (talk) 21:10, February 12, 2021 (EST)

Oh there you go, for some reason I misremembered it being available from the start. Mario JC 05:41, February 13, 2021 (EST)

I believe in the original it was available from the start if you have New Super Luigi U save data (which is stated here). I'll make sure to check that whenever I get around to playing this game as I have New Super Luigi U save data on my switch as well. Nightwicked Bowser 06:19, February 13, 2021 (EST)

Portuguese Website Mistake

I'm not sure what to do with this info, but Nintendo's Portuguese website mistakenly calls this game a perfected version of Super Mario World instead of Super Mario 3D World.

"Tratando-se de uma versão aperfeiçoada de Super Mario Word, foram efetuadas algumas melhorias à jogabilidade para tornar esta aventura ainda mais incrível." -Link

85.243.109.179 10:34, February 16, 2021 (EST)

Small Mistake

In the Locations section it says that you must fight Fury Bowser 6 times in order to beat the game when in reality is only five times.
The preceding unsigned comment was added by 88.17.224.99 (talk).

Technically it's 6, since Giant Bowser is the final boss, and (Obviously.) Fury Bowser is Bowser. - Bowser64 (Talk - Sandbox)

Springs

I don't know if it's noteworthy or not, but the unnamed spring objects that can be found on the lighthouses and some areas. Considering the game is about cats, there are actually cat toys that look pretty similar to them which could explain their appearance, should this be mentioned or no?Pikmin theories (talk) 00:55, February 24, 2021 (EST)

Bowser's Minions

I think Mario & Luigi Superstar Saga + Bowsers Minions should be listed in the references section because the name structure of Super Mario 3D World + Bowsers Fury greatly resembles the one of Mario & Luigi Superstar Sage + Bowsers Minions
The preceding unsigned comment was added by 80.57.88.144 (talk).

I'm not sure, seems a bit coincidental to me. It's hardly a full-on reference to that game either way. Nightwicked Bowser 10:13, March 12, 2021 (EST)

Conjectural names

Is it possible for someone to go into the game's files and find the file names of the Fury Cats, Kittens, Calico cat parents, Plessie Ring, Fury Stake, and Cat Flinger, because at least renaming those respective pages would be somewhat official, and seeing so many conjectural names is honestly uncomfortable to look at. PrPro03 (talk) 08:38, March 17, 2021 (EDT)

The Kittens' name is shown from some of the Cat Shines. Nightwicked Bowser 09:07, March 17, 2021 (EDT)

Real Name?

Ok, so phase 2 of Fury Bowser's boss fight is chasing "Super Bowser" down, but the soundtrack says "Chasing Down Giga Bowser" (Final Boss Theme), so should we rename?

Dreamy Bowser (talk) 10:49, March 17, 2021 (EDT)

Does "Super Bowser" come from the name of a mission? Is the soundtrack title an official English localization of the track's name or a fan's translation of the track's Japanese name? - Nintendo101 (talk) 13:06, March 17, 2021 (EDT)

Well The Wiki Shows That He's Called "Super Bowser", And I Don't Think Phase 2 Of Fury Bowser's Final Boss Fight Has A Mission, But The Soundtrack Says It's "Giga Bowser", And Not "Super Bowser". Also, If It Were A Japanese Name, It Would Obviously Be In Japanese. And I Don't Know Where The Wiki Got Super Bowser From, But He Is Like Super Bowser, But It Says It's Giga Bowser Instead. Also The Soundtrack Is In Bowser's Fury, And If It Were In Japanese, How Could I Have Known The Title Of The Soundtrack? And, Where I Found The Name Of The Soundtrack Is https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=OpOQ8PUU4VU. (It's A Link To The Video.) Dreamy Bowser (talk) 10:25, March 18, 2021 (EDT)

"Super Bowser" is what the Giant Bowser article used to be called, that seems to be where that name came from, which in turn was used by PRIMA games for New Super Mario Bros. Wii. That YouTube channel you linked doesn't seem to be an official one either. Nightwicked Bowser 10:34, March 18, 2021 (EDT)

Bowser's Fury doesn't have an official soundtrack release right now, and in Super Mario 3D World the file names usually don't match the actual track names of the soundtrack. For example, the track Plessie is named Redc_bgm_Waiting (i.e. the actual name is Waiting, as Red Carpet is the codename of Super Mario 3D World) and the track Victory Parade is named Redc_bgm_Afterboss. The track names given in those videos don't fit what is usually found in the file names, so they are likely made up.--Mister Wu (talk) 20:01, March 18, 2021 (EDT)

Well, the video has the exact same music in the game, so it's not made up. - Bowser64 (Talk - Sandbox)

Yes, but the name is. Mario JC 22:17, April 10, 2021 (EDT)

minimum amount of lives

in the original, the minimum amount of lives is 1, but in the remake it's 0. should I add that? or has someone already added it? 80.57.88.144 03:25, March 19, 2021 (EDT)

The Minimum On The Remake Is 0, If You, For Example: Lose A Life When You Have 1, It'll Not Let You Be Game Over'd, Instead, It Will Show You Have 0 lives, But You Can Do The Course For 1 Last Time, Unless Of Course, You Take The Game Card Out Or Exit The Level, Or Lose Another Life, And I Don't Know if Someone Added It Already. - Bowser64 (Talk - Sandbox)

Ok, i added the minimum of lifes changes in the gameplay section. - Bowser64 (Talk - Sandbox)

Fury Shadows are bosses

I think that Fury Shadows should be moved to the Bosses section, because lots of people agree that they are bosses. OkSteak (talk)OkSteak

The said “Fury Shadow”

It's not a boss, the bosses in the games are in arenas, like for example, Boom Boom And Pom Pom. Fury Shadow reappears through The Island, like in Scamper Shores, and Risky Whisker Island. - Bowser64 (Talk - Sandbox)

Toad Brigade Locations.

I think we should add the locations onto where the members of the Toad Brigade are found, like Captain Toad's Location. - Bowser64 (Talk - Sandbox)

Cat enemies redirects

This talk page or section has a conflict or question that needs to be answered. Please try to help and resolve the issue by leaving a comment.

Since there are no plans to create articles for the cat variations of enemies that appear in Bowser's Fury due to them all being nothing but aesthetic changes, I was thinking would redirects to the Bowser's Fury sections of each enemy article be appropriate? e.g "Cat Boomerang Bro" redirecting to the SM3DW / SM3DW+BF section of the Boomerang Bro article. Nightwicked Bowser 13:02, May 5, 2021 (EDT)

I think this is a good idea as Cat enemies are technically different enemies despite acting the same. User:Matthew aka Mario 11:24, May 5, 2021 (EDT)
