Talk:Red Shy Guy (character)

Move?

Should we move this to Red Shy Guy (character)? It's the name in-battle and would remove the conjectural name.--DarkNight 17:37, September 16, 2020 (EDT)

The fact that he appears in Mossrock Theater as well makes me unsure about the current name. Nightwicked Bowser

Good point. I would be willing to do so, although I would like to hear from at least one other editor before doing so. Green Star 17:47, September 16, 2020 (EDT)

Sure, I'm up for that as well. ^(T|C) 17:49, September 16, 2020 (EDT)

It's settled. I'll go right ahead. Green Star 17:50, September 16, 2020 (EDT)

Text data refers to his initial questions as OB_Sunset_HEI01. His monologue is attributed to Huey for some reason. In Mossrock Theater, he is known as G4_Swing_HEI01. So we could go with "Sunset Shy Guy" or "Swing Shy Guy" if this doesn't work. Scrooge200 (talk) 17:51, September 16, 2020 (EDT)

I think I'm fine with the in-game name, though since he has two internal names depending on location, I wonder if he was originally supposed to be the same Red Shy Guy or if that was added in localization. LinkTheLefty (talk) 08:22, September 19, 2020 (EDT)

Move to "Red Shy Guy (Paper Mario: Color Splash)"?

Shouldn't this page be moved to "Red Shy Guy (Paper Mario: Color Splash)"? Most species that have a character of the same name (for example, the hosts in Mario Party 4 and the Game & Watch Mini Donkey Kong) use the game name or a basic descriptor instead of "character". Also, a character named "Red Shy Guy" with a character descriptor could confuse user between him and the generic Red Shy Guy playable in Mario Kart games. Should this be moved for consistency?

Personally, I think "Red Shy Guy (Paper Mario: Color Splash character) would be the better name, considering that Red Shy Guys are common enemies in that very same game. rend (talk) (edits) 10:27, December 24, 2024 (EST)
