Talk:Polar Bear (Wario World)

Do we really need two of the same pictures on this page? if not please remove it.--Luigibros2 10:20, 24 December 2008 (EST)

Move the page

Considering actual polar bears appears in some games and media (the Mario Show, some mangas, Minecraft, Bashmaster...) shouldn't we give this page to the actual polar bears, and move the Wario World enemy to another page? -- Mariuigi Khed 08:01, September 28, 2024 (EDT)

Agreed, because I question whether the Polar Bears in Wario World were even meant to be polar bears. The English name comes from a licensed guide and was probably a presumption based on the design of their torsos, which only tenuously resembles a bipedal bear. The Japanese name, also from a licensed guide, is instead derived from their snowman heads. I personally can't confidently declare this enemy a "bear" or a "snowman", but I'm very inclined to describe it as a hybrid--not quite one thing or the other--so if there's ever a need to cover generic polar bears in the franchise, I'd rather this page be moved to "Polar Bear (Wario World)" and the title without the identifier be reserved for the generic ones. -- KOOPA CON CARNE 08:24, September 28, 2024 (EDT)
