:You are right, we already discussed not to cite Wikipedia anymore, this reference just hasn't been removed yet.

The article also mentions a Japanese title, and the game has been released in Japan only, so we should use the official title. --[[User:Grandy02|Grandy02]] 09:07, 12 December 2008 (EST) | :You are right, we already discussed not to cite Wikipedia anymore, this reference just hasn't been removed yet.

It's just Peach Mr. Guy the Guy
Talk!
Well, I can't explain, but it most likely is Mr. Guy the Guy Talk!
On references....
Should we really consider Wikipedia a good "reference" site?

Especially for games of such an enigmatic nature as this, I've seen Wikipedia members get information wrong various amounts of times.
