I'd suggest to prefix the explanation by explaining what a "Super Nintendo" is. I had to look it up in the other wiki to figure that the [https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Super_Nintendo_Entertainment_System SNES] (which I'm only familiar with by name) actually stands for "Super Nintendo".

Revision as of 15:09, 28 December 2023


Ah, good, I was just about to tell people (on 2872's Talk page) that there was a new one... (And that we obviously need to prod the theusafBOT.) Currently, 2872: Hydrothermal Vents doesn't have the 'Next' links to here, but (from last comic's experience) it might just be a matter of nudging its server-side cache a bit. I'll try the tricks I tried yesterday. 141.101.99.101 20:08, 27 December 2023 (UTC)

Too bad the franchise has never introduced a Weach character (there's a couple of witches). A game with Peach as the main protagonist would be interesting, and it would give us a convenient positron. 172.71.26.135 20:56, 27 December 2023 (UTC)

If they made Weach, people would start asking for Wowser. 108.162.245.202 21:53, 27 December 2023 (UTC)
Isn't that just Bowyer? 172.70.131.37 21:59, 27 December 2023 (UTC)
There is a Princess Peach game, Super Princess Peach. 172.68.174.237 14:06, 28 December 2023 (UTC)

I think the mouse over text references mariokart? We know that Randall plays... 172.70.200.144 00:43, 28 December 2023 (UTC)

Absolutely. It's directly referring to the track GCN Baby Park, found in Double Dash, MK8, and MK8DX. on the other hand, it also references The Legend of Zelda: Majora's Mask (which is already included in the explanation) someone, i guess(talk i guess|le edit list) 02:21, 28 December 2023 (UTC)

I'm not that familiar with Mario or particle physics. What would the anti-Peach particle be? Bowsette? GreatWyrmGold (talk) 00:59, 28 December 2023 (UTC)

I'm fairly well acquainted with particle physics but not at all with anything Mario (post Donkey Kong, at least). I wish now I'd formatted my own initial explanation with unordered-list (*) or tabular format of the referenced-particles side of this parody when I first visited (141.101.99.101, 20:08, 27 December 2023) rather than the current stop-gap version, but would naturally want to have columns/continuation for the Marioland characters (of which I know too little, only that they exist and that Mario's evil 'twin' is Wario at some much later point in the franchise). Can we perhaps knock it into shape, or are too many editors on Christmas break/distracted by RL? I can still reformat it into a table, but I have less idea what the Mario columns need to leave space for than the other bits... 172.69.194.14 12:37, 28 December 2023 (UTC)
