Talk:Spider (Luigi's Mansion series)

Maybe should we add names in other languags than Germain? In French, a spider ar called "araignée", either in real life than in the game.
The preceding unsigned comment was added by 90.61.91.77 (talk).

If it's called that in-game, then the French name can be added (using "Fr" in the template, or "FrA"/"FrE" if it's specific to American or European translations), but if it's just translating "spider" independently using general language knowledge, then that's not allowed. - Walkazo 17:41, 15 July 2015 (EDT)

Possible Japanese name source-adjacent thing

I found this site which appears to have the Japanese profiles for the game's ghosts (I tried finding the bios on YouTube, with little luck). In the Grouchy Possessor's profile, the spider queen is named「大グモー」(Oo Gumō). This page says the little spiders are supposedly named「クモー」(Kumō). It's not quite the same name, with the K becoming a G, probably due to being glued to that 大, so this isn't quite a source, but it's something. LM2 had an official Japanese guide, that's probably where all these unsourced names are from, but that's just speculation... Blinker (talk) 15:24, October 22, 2023 (EDT)

EDIT: Turns out the「クモー」name is used in-game, at the start of the Sticky Situation mission (also I found a video showing the queen's name) Blinker (talk) 07:38, October 23, 2023 (EDT)
