6 April 2024

• Demo save data are not carried over to the full version. I know quite a lot of non-wiki players, me included at the time, wondered about it.
• Make GoödFeël a redirect to Good-Feel if no one objects to it.
• Upload and add a track layout comparison image for Wario Stadium (MKDS), though it'd have to be placed in a part of the page where it wouldn't stick out too much.
• Basement cannot be entered in the demo. In the full game, it can be entered after The Castle of Thorns.
  • The Lobby Shop never opens, whereas in the full game, the shop opens after The Castle of Thorns.
  • is used in the demo.
• Add a "Controls" section to Princess Peach: Showtime!. Make mention of how only 4 buttons are ever used in the entire game, and that and are never used at any point. Control instructions reflect the / setting.
• Take a screenshot for sideways Sparkle. If there's one chance I've got to make myself "in" on the wiki, this is a good chance.
  • Sparkle quotes: "Fantastic.", "Lovely."
• Game runs 720p, both docked and handheld. Framerate approximately 30fps.
• The Castle of Thorns cannot be left during the first time the play is performed. Closing the game mid-level, will make the game resume from the Toad "I've got the tickets" moment.
• Heart Charm increases HP from 5→8 with no negative effects, but the extra hearts are shown in green.

7 April 2024

• Latin letters font comparison: Regular vs Korean vs Republic of China.
  • Create a new Category:Comparison images for these kinds of images.
• Add pages: Lobby Shop

8 April 2024

• Add descriptions of the shapes of Figure Skater Peach, for the benefit of colourblind players.
• Take Elgato screenshots for: Lobby Shop
• Attempt a futile layout comparison for GBA Sky Garden, whose MK8DX layout is so different as to be all but unrecognisable.

9 April 2024

• Sparkle Peach "Ran out of hearts" quotes: "No way.", "Oh no."
• Get a screenshot of Peach's de facto blue dress during transformations.
• Add pages: Sour Bunch Figure Skater (I still doubt that "Figure skater" could possibly be his official name, but sure), who of course happens to be moderately popular on Tumblr. One album photo exists of him, but I need pose screenshots from the second ice level as well.

11 April 2024

• Do a 5.1 surround test of Peach Showtime. Depending on how far down Yamaha receivers allow me to reduce dB offsets of the front speakers, it shouldn't be too hard to do.
• Test more games for native surround. Let's say, Mario Kart 8 Deluxe, Mario Kart 8, Mario and Sonic at the Olympic Games Tokyo 2020, New Super Mario Bros. U Wii U Edition, Mini Mario & Friends: amiibo Challenge, Paper Mario: Color Splash, Paper Mario: The Origami King, and a few others I could have.

13 April 2024

• I know there's at least one in-play area where Peach can also slide down stairs. Maybe the second Swordfighter level? Perchance.
  • Maybe The Castle of Thorns? It has stairs of *some* kind.
• The visible title differences I could find between Parisian and Montréalian French could be counted on 1 hand (Lobby Shop, Strike of Intuition, It's Showtime, Grape!), and User:Jdtendo would be likely to handle any further ones.
• I presume comparisons between the microgames in Gamer (& Wario) contra earlier/later WarioWare games have been done almost a decade ago, but I feel curious enough to doublecheck.
• Info on "3 vs 4" minimum VS Mode cups in Mario Kart 8 contra Mario Kart 8 Deluxe.

16 April 2024

• Screenshot of Sparkle upwards attack, seemingly only possible in boss fights.
• I remember JPN ruby top characters have been wished for in regards to Peach Showtime in particular, presumably (but not certain on) level names.
• Music names for PPS levels seem desired, but I only personally want to add them if the stages only really have one song each.
• Attempt to get an MP4 or WebM footage of Sparkle Peach dancing in levels. I'm not super-happy with GIF either nowadays.

24 April 2024

• Although it's ended up controversial by the dozen on wikis I've been on before, whether it actually went splendidly, if minimodders thought I couldn't hold a spoon right, or if access was very hardlocked to "Admins only", it'd be within my skill scope to set up an AutoWikiBrowser trial run on Mario Wiki to convert ([\=]|//|\s{0,})http://(www\.|m\.)?youtube\.com/ to $1https://www.youtube.com/ Starting it very simple with one single type of conversion, and extraordinarily safeguarded to not convert Wayback Machine.
• Make pages for: Junior Detective
• As far as easy-to-suggest Proposals go, a proposal to replace Princess_Peach:_Showtime!#Plays with a "Main link" to Sparkle Theater hopefully can't be a too bad first attempt.

1 May 2024

• Make pages for, if time permits: Professor Theet (a.k.a. Professor (Princess Peach: Showtime!) ?)

2 May 2024

• Check filesizes for 3DS eShop games I have.
• Make Memory card and Block (measurement) redirects to Memory Card.
• Record the WarioWare Snapped menu sound with AUX.
• On the Memory Card page, mention in passing how Wii U and Switch transitioned to gigabytes.
• Does the Super Smash Bros. for Wii U 3DS Control App thing count as an eShop app for the Nintendo 3DS page? (314 blocks / 40.1 MB ?)
• See what the Darkle Boss: Light Fang reads like without having saved Swordfighter Sparkla first. I've got one shot (to read its text). One opportunity.
• Check what the block size on Nintendo DSi is.
• Add one of Wikimedia Commons' open-source photos of SD cards for the Memory Card page.
• I know The Cutting Room Floor in particular have wanted to cross-test 1DS vs eShop for WarioWare: Touched!. I happen to have them both, and the devices they were designed for, and can cross-test them in real time.

4 May 2024

• Add Peach Showtime info to Painting.

Second archiving

6 April 2024

• I'd say there's a fair few features in the demo that would warrant a subsection in Princess Peach: Showtime!#Development :
  • Ninjutsu: The Art of Rapids and Cowgirl in the Wilderness has their doors fenced off with tied ropes. No such ropes are used at any point in the full game.
  • The demo's intro menu has "Start" and "Nintendo eShop" options, while the full game only has "Press ".
  • The 3 leftmost -menu options cannot be selected.

20 April 2024

• • Wasn't Super Mario Advance 4 advertised with and sort-of proven to have Game Boy Player rumble?

23 April 2024

• I've accidentally got myself into a both-ways "pronoun battle" (Usually I play "both sides" on e.g. Tumblr, but usually end up on the centerlines), so I'll be crosschecking Italian and Russian-language names for characters that have been contentious this week, as those languages have a reputation for very heavy gender-tensing of words.
  • Mighty Sparkla: Il suo / Ним. Strongly implies male, but is just short of 100.00% confirmation. Still more than Professor's and Mighty Sparkla's less than 40% confirmation in English.
  • Kung Fu Sparkla: No characters in that level, let alone the Sparkla, have any even the vaguest indications in Italian (except Hat Man's congratulation towards Peach). None of the characters even talk about the Sparkla beyond Stella's one-line intro. Combined with the carnival mask, the Sparkla may as well be a robot.
  • Patissiere Sparkla: Even if it were to not be mentioned in dialogs, I'd personally say it's not even a question that she's female, based on her entire design.

24 April 2024

• Get 1× scale screenshot of the mermaid at the end of the Dribble & Spitz WarioWare, Inc.: Mega Microgame$! level. 🧜
  • Get one for the merboy too, presumably; although from what I've understood only for core Mega Microgame$ purposes at most.

1 May 2024

• Make pages for, if time permits: Alarm (function), incl.:
  • Those of Game & Watch devices
  • Game & Watch Collection
  • Game & Watch: Super Mario Bros.
  • Mario Clock
    • Works pretty well even through walls, and without needing an external AUX speaker.
  • Alarm Clock (souvenir)
    • Tested it to wake up to a big cup match. Placed in the room outside my bedroom. I could not meaningfully hear the alarm ringing when compared with an afternoon's typical activities on the parkways outside.
  • Super Mario Bros. 3 (Nelsonic Game Watch)
  • I could not get the alarm in Game & Watch Collection to work, rendering such a page irrelevantly short, most unfortunately.

2 May 2024

• Check filesizes for Wii savefiles that I have on my Wii U. Potentially WiiWare game sizes too, but the former is more important.
• One of the sillier things I've thought of, but what would happen if SD cards were inserted into Nintendo consoles while the cards' infamous write-lock slider was set to On?
  • Turns out my new Wii U PSU has been stuck in transit for two weeks now, on a mere 500km domestic van route.

7 May 2024

• It's been some 7 weeks now, so it's time to search for glitches people have found in Peach Showtime. I hope the glitches are glorious.
• Add info to Stella ribbon about how the ribbons make up a large percentage of her visible body (I think it's a body, at least?).
  • I've got no proof at all in my theory that Stella has no body below her head; as such I cannot add info on that specifically.
• Add a link on Sparkle Theater to Stella ribbon.
• Add a "Cards" gallery subsection on E-Reader, considering how hard it is to find info on those cards anywhere else on the internet.
• Test SMA4 rumble support on Wii U.

8 May 2024

• Add ZL and ZR for 3DS to Template:Button
  • 
  • 
  • 
    • While it's perfectly fair to separate info on the Circle Pad's R stick from N3DS's C stick, I feel that would warrant creating an icon as well. Shouldn't be overly hard for me or anyone else to do.

9 May 2024

• Move info from Sparkla#Named Sparklas to Figure Skater Sparkla.
• See the exact amount of cookies Patissiere Sparkla can bake on her own with no assistance in The Dark Baker & the Bewitching Sweets.

10 May 2024

• Remove top-row leftover edges of File:MonaAlarmClock.png and File:9-VoltAlarmClock.png.

11 May 2024

• I've learned enough about Agent Theets that a(n admittedly very short) page could be created for the PPS infobox's sake.
• Compare PPS transformations' jump heights.
• Peach can only move in eight directions and has no sneaking speeds by default.

12 May 2024

• Test rumble functionality in Princess Peach: Showtime!. It seems faint at most, but is non-zero.

13 May 2024

• The current Wii U Template:Button icons for L and R are, sorry to say, rubbish. So I need to make some new ones.

14 May 2024

• ...Wasn't I supposed to add a timer screenshot for Super Mario 64 DS VS?

Third archiving

10 April 2024

• Add full (though only with non-existing rows) translation tables to relevant pages that don't already have full tables, because, sure, it can't hurt. The changelogs of User:Mariuigi Khed in particular inspired me to add this on my to-do list.

21 April 2024

• I need to get an animated image of how spectacularly poorly the Theets in Mighty Mission: The Rescue tried to "defend" themselves with the "swords".

24 April 2024

• Mass-utilizing Template:Cite, as it seems to be a near-verbatim equivalent to Wikipedia's Cite Web, seems to be a possibly great move, but would be practically impossible to do on a large scale.

2 May 2024

• Add more info about the whereabouts and phrases of the Hat Man (i.e. "Ribboner") to 1F and 2F levels.

7 May 2024

• The stair physics in Peach Showtime's Sparkle Theater seem… strange at best.
  • I concluded that there was one scenario where the stairs would be Euclidean, involving a double-spiral setup that sort-of resemble those of carpark basements.
• Get an AWebP of Hat Man dancing.
  • No stages on 1F-5F seem viable in terms of best resolution; needs to check BF instead.

11 May 2024

• Sour Thieves are flying round robots with helicopting, who do not look like Sour Bunch at all. They are primarily associated with The Perfect Infiltration.
  • I've got the screenshots now, but writing the page in one go is unrealistic and difficult.
• Figure Skater Peach can make non-skater Theets spin around, including the Hat Man.

12 May 2024

• Apparently The Case of the Missing Mural has its own distinct Staff Member Theets who work very differently from the Sparkle Theater Staff Member Theets.
• The supposed gloves of Figure Skater Peach appear to have melded to her skin.
  • Hold on, that's not frosted skin, that's a suit. I recognize that kind of seaming anywhere.

14 May 2024

• Fix the layout of Cowgirl at Dusk.
• Get a screenshot or two of the start screen's Sparkla parade street.
• I think I encountered a small slider glitch in Cowgirl in the Wilderness, which I should look into.
• "Sour Gang"...?
• Peach and Stella do a silly pose if the player does not move after they slid down a railing.
• Add a screenshot of the Detective Sparkla painting within The Case of the Rainy-Day Plot.

15 May 2024

• Dutch:
  • Dashing Thief Rehearsal
  • Cowgirl Rehearsal
  • The Case of the Rainy-Day Plot
  • Kung Fu Rehearsal
  • Mighty Rehearsal
  • The Dark Depths & the Swirling Currents
  • Dark Space & the Great Meteor
  • Staff Member
  • Swordfighter Rehearsal
• Upload SSB 3rd 3DS theme. As images of it seem very hard to find online, I guess I'll go for borrowing SmashWiki's file of it.
• Test through further playing if the Fronk blow microgame is always the pro-blow(?) version in SplitScreen Ultra.

17 May 2024

• Sparkle Gem 4 for A Parade on Ice is flatout wrong from my test efforts, so I need to find out how to actually get it.
• The "Theepota" museum items in The Case of the Missing Mural and The Dark Museum & the Purple Mystery narrowly has enough info on it to warrant a section on the Theet page.

20 May 2024

• Set up: Key#Princess Peach: Showtime!

21 May 2024

• Test Tomodachi Life with a 2nd account with an extraordinarily silly-designed Mii that is not Mii Maker's gold-crowned Mii.

23 May 2024

• Make pages for: Demo level (Super Mario 3D Land) (the one on the title screen)
  • Takes 42sec on the title screen to enter the level; 60sec of standing still to get back to the title screen.
• Super Wario Bros. in Gold has 4 or 5 stomps depending on the speed.
• Test Gallery:Mii#Miscellaneous on Wii U. I could've sworn on my guts that Wii U could also scan QR Miis.
• Loss scenarios for: The Case of the Missing Mural, A Snow Flower on Ice

26 May 2024

• Test if MediaWiki recognises one half of an MPO as a JPG, which'd allow it to be uploaded and viewed on pages.
  • It seems to be a massive success so far, so I should set up such dual 2D+3D images for New Super Mario Bros. 2 and Mario & Sonic at the Rio 2016 Olympic Games (Nintendo 3DS) too.

27 May 2024

• Add a screenshot of the GamePad view in Ashley (minigame)

6 June 2024

• Since I happen to have a DS Rumble Pak, I can add a "Technical aspects" section to Super Princess Peach.
