Koopa Troopa Paratroopa Jamboree Go Kablooka[edit]
I really really doubt that the Jamboree ones are similar to this mostly because Pata Mario is him after beating a Paratroopa to get its wings in typical Kun weirdness while Jamboree has the Mario Bros wearing strap-on wings. PrincessPeachFan (talk) 01:07, December 12, 2024 (EST)
- I agree, I in fact originally put it as a trivia: then Koopa con Carne (talk) put it as a section and I... "rolled" with it.

- My read on the situation, as someone whose only contact with the manga have been the articles on the wiki, is that the Pata form does not quite parallel traditional power-up forms such as Fire Mario or Raccoon Mario. I took it that Mario attains the form by simply stealing a Paratroopa's wings and physically attaching them to his body, the wings themselves being more of a tool that grants him flight, unlike, say, a Super Leaf, which is a consumable that inherently transforms Mario into a flying creature
, which is, of course, a raccoon. I'll ask Mariuigi Khed (talk) to correct me if my assessment is wrong, but if what I say is the case, then the Jamboree instance mustn't be functionally different, no? That game also has users attaching Paratroopa wings to themselves in order to fly. I think "attaching the wings of a particular Mario enemy to oneself in order to fly" is a specific enough scenario that its instances can be covered on this page regardless of whether or not there was intent in referencing the manga. The aesthetic aspects of the form are kind of irrelevant, considering established power-up forms have changed appearance over time. -- KOOPA CON CARNE 14:03, December 12, 2024 (EST), edited 14:10, December 12, 2024 (EST)

- You're not at all wrong. Yours is a very validissimo point. Mariuigi Khed 15:52, December 12, 2024 (EST)

- I feel that we should put it back under Trivia because I highly doubt Nintendo would be inspired by a volume of a gag manga they've barely acknowledged. PrincessPeachFan (talk) 09:01, December 13, 2024 (EST)
- "Barely"? Half of that stuff made it to the game. Just look at chapter 15 of Volume 1. And let's not also talk of the SMM course Mariuigi Khed 09:34, December 13, 2024 (EST)
