My second sandbox for smaller projects. If you're reading this, feel free to share any thoughts you have on my talk page.
THE ORIGAMI KING
Images
We're pretty good on sprites. I've uploaded all I deem important, and anything else (Overlook Tower drawings? HUD icons? Back sprites?) might seem excessive.
We used to be pretty low on screenshots, but Longliveaki has done good work on adding them. I'm not going to do the image guides for this game, because there are already a few online (Color Splash didn't have any) and Yuzu is a bigger drain on my CPU than Cemu. It runs Origami King rather well otherwise, though.
Pages needed
- Should the fishing spots have an article? There are unique interactions at each one.
List of Paper Mario: The Origami King weapons is probably able to be deleted, since the weapons mostly have their own articles and there's a more detailed section on the main article. Also, in my proposal, I specifically state, "I don't want to end up with an article called 'Weapon (Paper Mario: The Origami King)' or 'list of attacks in Paper Mario: The Origami King.'"
Spanish translation
See User:Scrooge200/Spanish/TOK for a full analysis of how good the game's American Spanish translation is. There's a lot of cool stuff, I was impressed!
COLOR SPLASH
Here is my current work on Paper Mario: Color Splash.
Pages needed
Languages
- Japanese
- Spanish

Inspired by The Origami King and its awesome translation, I'm gonna deep dive the game's Spanish translation to see how well it works. See User:Scrooge200/Spanish/CS.

A lot of Port Prisma images. Some LQ enemy images. Use their cards for clearer images, maybe for Roller Guys too

THE THOUSAND-YEAR DOOR
Localization gone wrong
TTYD has so make localization mistakes that you'd think the translators hadn't played Mario before.
- In Shhwonk Fortress, "Mushville" is listed as a place. It's supposed to be Toad Town.
- Pine T. Sr. "takes care of Bubu in Toad Town." "Bubu" is supposed to be Li'l Oinks.
- The Chuck Quizmo reference and secret at the end of RDM's last issue are removed.
- The "Goomstar Temple" that Koopook is hiding in? That's the Crystal Palace.
- Paragloomba's tattle states that they're stronger versions of "Parakoopas". It's meant to say Paragoombas, and "Parakoopas" aren't even real: that's Koopa Paratroopas.
- Goombella's tattle also says that "Chomp-Chomps" are always excited. She means Chain Chomps.
- Who could forget the whole "Chestnut King" catastrophe? It's actually the Goomba King.
- The game insists that Dark Lakitus throw "pipes" instead of Sky-Blue Spinies. Someone misread the word for "egg" and "pipe" and just went with it, I guess.
- Petalburg's Toad was supposed to reference Super Mario Bros., which got turned into a Fire Emblem advertisement later.
- What kind of disaster caused the fact that we have a page called Piranha Plant (Paper Mario: The Thousand-Year Door)? Well, in the original Japanese version, Pale Piranhas are Piranha Plants. These are Killer Piranhas. The localizers tried being fancy and decided that the gray one was now a Pale Piranha and the Killer Piranha was a Piranha Plant.
- Both quizzes went through a change. The 65th Super Fun Quirk Quiz has "Luigi's underwear" instead of "Pickle Stone" (no idea why they changed this into something much less amusing), and the 66th Annual Quirk Quiz (there names being different is also a translation error) has a joke about the word Japan that got changed to "defeat."
- Gloomer is named "Freddy" in his tattle while in pig form. This is actually his Japanese name.
- In Japan, Doogans and Rowf have the same name, so it's like the Yoshi and Toad situation where a character and the species have the same name. The localizers didn't catch them.
- Grodus's responses to Mario choosing to attack him in the Palace of Shadow are mixed up in the English version, leading to Grodus shouting "You dare defy me?" if Mario decides to say still.
- Shellshock talks like KP Pete in the final cutscene.
- The plural of Yux is implied to be just "Yux", except in X-Yux's Tattle, which uses "Yuxes".
