Shouldn't this be called "Bowser Shell"? This refers to Shells that resemble Bowser's but are not the one he normally wears.

Revision as of 00:47, May 7, 2020

Shouldn't something be said about how in Super Mario Galaxy, Bowser was able to retreat into his shell and roll around like a spiked ball? Also, in Super Smash Bros. Melee (not sure about 64) he was able to duck out inside his shell at some times. Should this be mentioned here? -TheDenzel

I wouldn't think so. I'd think that that would belong in the Bowser article...perhaps under his sections about SSB and SSBM. — Stooben Rooben The shell is an item, whereas Bowser is performing those moves...not his shell.

Wait, so his collar is a part of his shell? And more relevantly, does SMRPG's Shell armor class deserve a mention here? Binks 04:22, 18 September 2008 (EDT)
