Thanks :D I will do my best with these responsibilities this time around. · SMB (Talk) · 16:16, 9 October 2009 (EDT)
Mario Super Sluggers
I noticed you put the news in the Mario Super Sluggers article that chances are really slim that the game will reach Nintendo of Europe territories. I assume you posted this based on conclusions you reached (including that it's been more than one year that the game was released in US and Japan)? --M. C. - "Mario Gals" Fan!

Re:Made in Ore Again
Yeah, those "all hiragana" contest rules suck, huh?
Here is how I think it breaks down:
じしん・作・が・できたら・おくろう!
「コンテスト・の・ちゅうい」・さえ・まもれば、
ないよう・は・じゆう・だ。
or:
If you can make it yourself, send it in!
If you obey the "contest warnings"
the details are up to you.
"Contest warnings" is the block of disclaimers at the bottom of the page, by the way.
As for "otayori club", it's a Famitsu thing. I'm not sure exactly what its purpose is, but "o-tayori" means "news" (with the "o" respectful prefix). - 2257(Talk)
- Also, I should mention that "ファミ通" is one way to write "Famitsu" (the name is a shortened form of "ファミコン通" or "Famicom Authority". - 2257(Talk)
Re: WarioWare Person
- Question 1
- Ko Takeuchi joined Nintendo in 2000.
- First game he was involved with is a Hamtaro game (in the Kikizo interview, he said Wario Land 4, though, but the Hamtaro game is older). His job was the assistant director.
- Next game was Wario Land 4, for which he made the background graphics.
- He designed the characters for WarioWare (already known).
- ! I don't understand why he did choose the job as a game designer.
- I think you are referring to this sentence: 「この仕事を選んだのは、絵を描く仕事をしたいと思っていた事が理由ですね。」, meaning approximately "In selecting this job, my motivation was that I thought 'I want a drawing job', you know?"
- Takeuchi studied cartooning in the United States (already known).
- After his return to Japan, he applied to different companies related to visual arts, including at least one game company (Warp). He entered the video game industry this way.
- Question 2
- ! What does he say about Hiroji Kiyotake (designer of Wario)?
- 「『メイドインワリオ』に携わっていた時には清武博二さんと一緒に、根気良く指導してもらった事は今でも忘れません。」"When working on 'Made in Wario', sometimes I would be with Kiyotake Hiroji-san. Even now, I haven't forgotten the patient leadership he gave us."
- ! What does he say about Hiroji Kiyotake (designer of Wario)?
- Question 3
- He sees the game Mother as a masterpiece (or does he mean the series as a whole?).
- ! What does he say about character design?
- Sadly, I don't know.
- Question 4
- ! His character designs are often based on real people (not sure about that, the translations were a bit odd).
- You're correct.
- When a new character idea comes to his mind, he draws it into a small sketch book.
- Rather, I believe he says that when he sees a fascinating person he sketches them.
- ! Nintendo is a "gold mine" of character ideas, what is exactly meant?
- I believe it says this: "Regarding Nintendo, Sakamoto Yoshio said it first; because fun people are numerous, it's a treasury of character ideas (laughs)." He doesn't literally describe it as a "gold mine". I'm thinking the translation program you used inserted that, as "a gold mine of X" is an English expression that means "a place where you can find a lot of good X". Or maybe you knew what a gold mine is, and I misunderstood the question. :P
- ! His character designs are often based on real people (not sure about that, the translations were a bit odd).
- Question 5
- ! I don't really understand at all what the bad translations say. :-(
- Translating this is beyond my capabilities. Nevertheless, I tried! The result is sort of incoherent, but here it is anyway, for better or worse.
- ! I don't really understand at all what the bad translations say. :-(
- Q5: "I want to make this sort of game" or "I'd enjoy a game like this", etc. Please tell us your hopes for the gaming industry in the future. And last, now turning to the readers who watch the gaming industry, please tell us what you think is the most important thing in creating a game, and what you have to keep in mind when it's time to release a game to the public.
- Takeuchi: Nowadays, I think that people who hesitate to finish games that you can't win if you don't give it your all are not scarce. For that reason, I think that if there's a game where you can have a little bit of fun if you just play a short time, that's good. When we were kids, there was one game that everyone would gather around and take turns playing. I want to make a game like that, you know?
- Personally, because I am making fairytale works aimed at children, I am dream of possessing their work, and making a system whereby one can come into contact with the work of children nationwide. It might be like the feeling of a picture-story-show-person. Because children are honest, they won't show any interest in an uninteresting thing, and so you can study the truth. Now for the work of such a person, the development has a good influence on them. Because of that, I can't leave. Every day I devote myself to this.
- I think the most important thing in creating a game is "affectionate feelings".
- Working on a team, to make one thing is a very great matter. That's important to emphasize. However, when one worries about their team members, I hope they can hold on to their "affectionate feelings". So that an atmosphere of mutual respect can exist, one might take it upon themselves to create it. If many people like that appear, the vitality of the Games industry will become apparent.
Overall, I think this is a bit beyond me. I'm always happy to help, of course, but my talent only goes so far. I recommend that you check category:user ja if you need more help. Please don't think that this means I resent your coming to me for help, as I want to do whatever I can. I'm just concerned that what I can do may not be enough. - 2257(Talk) 01:34, 22 December 2009 (EST)
- Yes, I believe the lines with no comment to be correct. I'm always glad to do what I can. :) - 2257(Talk) 15:19, 22 December 2009 (EST)
RE:Wario Land 4 Enemies
The names I got were from the english guide (Sold out on Ebay and Amazon) so the names are official. User:Mecha-Boss Unit
I hadn't heard at the time that there was such a guide, and I thought they were fan names. Yes, I do think we should wait for more proof of such a guide. - 2257(Talk) 13:53, 24 December 2009 (EST)
While I don't want to make any accusations, that seems like a bit of an unbelievable story to me. If this book exists, there must be some record of it somewhere. Personally, I don't think we should allow the article names to be changed until there is proof of such a book. - 2257(Talk) 21:19, 24 December 2009 (EST)
I can't deny the story does have some significant holes. But even if we assume it exists, a book that mysteriously vanishes because Amazon inexplicably took the infos off? That's no reliable source, and we would risk our credibility by relying on that. So, until this mystery-shrouded guide gets some manifestation, those infos are too dubious to rely on. -

Wario bosses
I made stubs for the Wario bosses like you asked, but someone else said Knife would probably delete them. If it comes to that, could you talk him out of it? SixFaceSal 21:11, 29 December 2009 (EST)
Re: Wario Land II FA
That's scary. I was thinking about EXACTLY the same a little earlier today (really). Oh, and there is no need to tale a back seat. The work and effort you put into that article is definitely as hard as the amount I put in it. :3
As for the actual question: I would love to see the Wario Land II article featured, and it is definitely on its way to FA status. However, there are still some minor things left that need to be done. I have to clean up some of the link-mess I made back then when I was new and unexperienced, and a few red links need to become blue. Once this is done, the article should be able to make the cut :3
What was it you wanted to talk about with me? -
Gabumon(talk) 15:36, 30 December 2009 (EST)
- I tried to correct some of the things you mentioned. As for the reasons I capitalized all of the Story titles, see this conversation between Tucayo and me. The first Story articles I created were uncapitalized, but they were moved to capitalized variants, so I followed that pattern. I think those english name you mentioned are fine. -
Gabumon(talk) 08:30, 31 December 2009 (EST)
Hello. Sorry for my late response. I will take care of the Hen matter in some time. The template in general needs a little work. It was my first attempt back then, and is a little rough. Though I have my doubts that Giant Spear Man and Mecha Kuri are different persons, I understand that we have to be objective, and therefore you are right about a separate article. I don't really know about the Spear Men matter. You moved the article to Pirate Goom, so that seems to be an official name. Why referring to them as Spear Men on the WL2 articles? -

Re: Wario Dayo
Thanks =). The only title I see is the ”怪盗ワリオ偏” which means its part of the Phantom Thief Wario series. I don't remember if each individual story has a title, however. -- Garlic Man (talk)
- Sorry for the rather late response. I found my "Ore Dayo! Wario Dayo!!" books, and also found the chapter that the link shows. It is entitled "お宝がっぽり大作戦!"(Otakara Gappori Daisakusen!) and it, as you mentioned, is the first story of the Wario in Disguise series, and the 5th chapter of the second book. As for meanings of each word, "Otakara" means "Treasures", "Daisakusen" literally means a big or "Grand Plan", and "Gappori" doesn't have a literal translation but the idea is that he's taking the whole thing or taking a large amount(The word is usually used to describe Money or Wealth). Roughly, "Grand Plan to seize All Treasures" or something. Actually, that's not a very good translation, but at the moment, it's the best I can think of. --Garlic Man (talk)
- I can help with a summary after you make the article if you'd like me to. -Garlic Man (talk)
Unknown Name
Hey Grandy02, could you assist me with something? Do you per chance know the name of this enemy from Wario Land 3? Thanks for reading. -
Gabumon(talk) 11:06, 1 January 2010 (EST)
- Meh, Nintendo should be a little more generous with information about those classics. Those games would really deserve it. Anyway, thanks for your time :3 -
Gabumon(talk) 11:16, 1 January 2010 (EST)
- Hi, it's me again with another problem. You probably remember those blocks in Wario Land 2 and 3 which can only be broken by Fat Wario. I have trouble thinking about a conjectural name for those blocks, to create an article with. On the Wario Land 2 page I called them "Cracked Blocks", but this name is flawed, because the same blocks aren't cracked at all in Wario Land 3. Instead there is a donut symbol on them. Do you have any idea how to name them? -

Recent Vandals
How many vandals did I miss? Hello, I'm Time Turner.
- Actually, I think it's one person, judging by the newest user. IP Ban, perhaps? Hello, I'm Time Turner.
Yellow Toad Proposal
You recently voted to re-name the Yellow Toad article to "Yellow Toad (New Super Mario Bros. Wii)" on Talk: Yellow Toad. However, you did not vote one way or the other to actually split the article. Choosing a name for the split article is moot unless you support the actual article. Please visit the talk page and consider your vote carefully, then place it in your chosen area. Thank you.
