Talk:MIPS

Is this name official? MIPS sounds really strange for rabbit's name...Fawfulfury65

Platitudinous (talk) "MIPS got his name from the MIPS (Microprocessor without Interlocked Pipeline Stages) microprocessor. Nintendo 64's CPU was a MIPS type, and thus the technology gave its name to the character." Does that make it clear?

The name is also mentioned in the cited (official) interview. --Grandy02 16:26, 27 January 2010 (EST)

He says he got the Star from Bowser could that mean he's a member of the Koopa Troop?

Suggestion to lock page for a few days

Went to check out the page after Silvery's video (https://youtu.be/LiZMfsdYRHk?si=N7U95ibpxXe4uLsz) and noticed the constant edits going back and forth removing the Mario Party 3 section even after users edited it to be more accurate in saying that the rabbits resemble MIPS rather than actually being him like on Hoot's page. I suggest locking the page from edits for a few days to prevent any further edits. 35.142.162.131 20:48, January 20, 2025 (EST)

Activity seems to have quieted down for now, but if it starts up again I will protect the page. - Nintendo101 (talk) 20:53, January 20, 2025 (EST)

OK, I don't know what stupid thing went down on YouTube, nor do I care. I do, however, think that it is not incorrect to refer to them as multiple versions of MIPS considering that is what the base model is - plus, internally, the numerous rabbits in 64DS are also considered MIPS (plural). Character/species variance is hardly a novel concept in this franchise, and acting like it can't happen in this case because [no reason given] is just silly. This goes doubly so for Hoot, who is only a nameless generic owl in the original Japanese. Doc von Schmeltwick (talk) 00:23, January 22, 2025 (EST)
