Talk:Buzzy Shell

This talk page or section has a conflict or a question that needs to be answered. Please try to help and resolve the issue by leaving a comment.

Nintendo Badge Arcade refers to Mario's form while wearing a spiny shell as "Spiny Mario". Should we add it onto the page? (T · C) 09:29, 6 December 2015 (EST)

Seeing as the current article is conjecture and Nintendo Badge Arcade is an official source, I don't see why not. It's me, Mario! (Talk / Stalk) 00:17, 7 December 2015 (EST)

Would we split them into Spiny Helmet and Buzzy Helmet? (T · C) 12:38, 10 December 2015 (EST)

I personally think they'd be best left the same. They're nearly identical except that the Spiny helmet is more destructive; in that sense, it's similar to the distinction between a giant Goomba Shoe and a giant Goomba Stiletto (which can break blocks with the ground pound).

Seeing that there are two varieties, I believe another image should be uploaded for the Buzzy Beetle Helmet. I would if I knew how...296lmn20 (talk) 12:24, 16 April 2016 (EDT)296lmn20

Why not use the Spiny Mario name from Nintendo Badge Arcade as partconjecture (since it needs to factor Buzzy Beetle), and change the article from being about the item/object to one of Mario's transformations (similar to how Invincible Mario 'stacks' on an existing power-up form)? The shell is being used as a helmet, but it's announced as the original enemy and is just an empty shell (somewhat akin to previously-seen empty Koopa Troopa shells), so it's a slight misnomer.

In the 3DS version when it is gotten in the Super Mario Challenge, it is called Buzzy Beetle Shell. I am not sure about the other, but it would be called Spiny Shell. Mario is called Buzzy Mario when he wears the Buzzy Bettle Shell. Yoshi the SSM (talk) 12:04, 28 December 2016 (EST)

Oh. I found out that Spiny Shell is indeed in the game as it is unlocked in the next world. The pigeon says that if Mario wears the Spiny Shell, he becomes Spiny Mario. Yoshi the SSM (talk) 12:31, 28 December 2016 (EST)

Wow! Nothing has changed since I posted here? This really needs more input before anything is done, though. Yoshi the SSM (talk) 15:08, 24 June 2017 (EDT)

Seeing as this page is currently conjectural, and "Spiny Mario" is the closest to an official name we have, I think it should be moved over, unless any instruction manuals have an official name as well. Any other links suggested could be redirects. 15:22, 24 June 2017 (EDT)

The only conflict there is, this article is somewhat about Buzzy Mario as well. I am thinking that it should be moved to Buzzy Mario as it is the lesser, but that is my view. Yoshi the SSM (talk) 15:26, 24 June 2017 (EDT)

After thinking a bit, I came up with 3 options. Move this to Helmet (Super Mario Maker), move to Buzzy Beetle shell (will be blue not red no matter what's decided) and split it so Spiny Shell is on that page, or change conjectural to partconjectural. The reason for the first and third is it is called just helmet or "...wearing a Buzzy Beetle shell like a helmet...." to be exact. the second being based on what was suggested, but not by me. In any case, I'm doing it in the morning or when I have time (as I will be quite busy tomorrow, maybe even in the morning). Yoshi the SSM (talk) 00:31, 19 October 2017 (EDT)

Adding onto this convo, Super Mario Maker for the 3DS calls the buzzy beetle version "Buzzy Mario" in the challenge descriptors. So it seems to be two versions; Buzzy Mario and Spiny Mario. Should we do a proposal, or...? ~Camwood777 (talk) 15:37, 26 October 2017 (EDT)

Yeah, this should be a proposal. To split or not to split. But if I am doing it, I am not doing it today. In the meantime, I have found some images that could work for Buzzy Mario, but they are for levels in the Super Mario Challenge. They are File:W7-1 SMM3DS.png, File:W7-3 SMM3DS.png, File:W7-4 SMM3DS.png, File:W9-6 SMM3DS.png, and File:W14-2 SMM3DS.png. I prefer 9-6, but 7-1, 14-2, and 7-4 (in that order) are also good. 7-3 is not good due to it almost being hidden. Yoshi the SSM (talk) 17:56, 1 November 2017 (EDT)
