After some thought about it, should we consider the "-in' Stu" name to be an error and use "Gooble" for ''Super Mario Sunshine'' material now that Mario Portal confirmed the name?

: Well, considering that the Mario Portal constantly calls Banzai Bills "Boomer Bills" even in early translations and calls Antottos "ants", I don't think so. Plus, it's important to remember that Prima most likely didn't know the "true name" of these guys, see "Plungelo" which are ''never'' called that in strategy guides because the name comes from one generic, random NPC. Plus, this ''really'' should have required a proposal.

::: Eeeh, I'm not sure, because as the page says, puchipuchi just means bubbles being popped. Besides, I'm more than a little doubtful of these "official" English names because aside from calling Banzai Bills "Bomber Bills" and Bulls-Eye Banzai "Bull's Eye Bomber Bills", there's the Mario Portal calling Antottos "ants" which were a generic name from Nintendo Power and Ice Piranha Plants "Frost Piranhas" from Paper Mario despite the completely different look and powers. I mean, if you want to say that these guys are "Goobles" and not "Swoopin' Stus", then go ahead, but I'm very doubtful of the Mario Portal's "new names".

::::Bomber Bill isn't that far off from Boomer Bill, and Parabomb I can imagine being renamed because the wings and parachute in the ''Super Mario Maker 2'' make the "para-" less obvious. And aside from the ''Super Mario Land'' games mostly keeping the romanizations and a handful of ''Encyclopedia'' carryovers, there really isn't much wrong with Mario Portal. In fact, I sincerely think the ''Super Mario Land 2'' generic names were researched since it spotted the name for Tōsanbōru before us. They do approach legacy names differently than we at the wiki, but that's also to its benefit since it also makes it clearer what's what in some ways.
