:Fair enough. Funny because the originals were what the 2D art was imagined to look like in 3D, but now that the art design has evolved, it's the remake that looks more stylized, when it's really just mostly keeping in spirit with the original. I think Peach's height is a minor illusion in that her modern dress design makes her look stockier, and Bowser doesn't look too far off (mainly slightly making his horner bigger and spikes smaller).

There isn't currently a discussion for moving Monchee to a new name, and there won't be in the near future--but I have created a section concerning the legitimacy of the "monkey" thing. I'm actually curious to hear your feelings on the points I made. -- KOOPA CON CARNE 17:42, October 27, 2023 (EDT)
- I know, I was referencing that very proposal in my summary. February 16 isn't too far away (unlike The Thousand-Year Door, we have a date for Mario vs. Donkey Kong), and honestly, I think it's a little fruitless to argue for or against it in particular until then. Considering the same development team seems to be in charge of the remake, I'm really not expecting many radical changes English-namewise, and I personally interpret this is as one-off by a promoter who didn't phone in and coordinate with the developers. Confusing "source wars"(?) comment aside, I don't think IP was too off base. But, maybe you're right, and this could very well be a sign of things to come. We'll have to see. We can afford to let it sit still for a while. Maybe there's a broader discussion to be had about the proper identification of generic descriptors for wiki use, but that's more complex as it's often been case-by-case.

- I'd like to clarify that I think it's perfectly reasonable to expect new material to embrace the old "Monchee" name or even go the other route and make some changes. It's why that proposal exists. Though, I believe some manner of accuracy to the "current story", as Miyamoto would put it, is still paramount, and I don't think the way I presented that status quo is disruptive. Indeed there should be a broader discussion on the topic. -- KOOPA CON CARNE 18:54, October 27, 2023 (EDT)
Super Mario RPG artworks
I don't think Mario, Peach and Bowser should use their Super Mario RPG artworks in the infoboxes at all because their designs do differ a bit from usual, like Mario's face and Peach's shorter height.
