The fact is, Beanerang Bros have officially been distinguished from Boomerang Bros more so as of the remake with a unique name, design and appearing alongside Boomerang Bros. Even if it's just for convenience from a developer point of view, the final game treats them as seperate subjects so we should to. I'm still not 100% sure about splitting the Dry Bones but it is currently the more favorable option out of the two and certainly what I'd lean on more to. {{User:Nightwicked Bowser/sig}} 13:59, October 9, 2024 (EDT) | The fact is, Beanerang Bros have officially been distinguished from Boomerang Bros more so as of the remake with a unique name, design and appearing alongside Boomerang Bros.

:It probably is, though I'm generally cautious about splitting what is otherwise treated as a "regional variant" of the same thing, like the gray [[Cleft]]s in [[Boggly Woods]]. Though in that case, the color's the only difference. I guess it's mainly my background with ''Zelda''-splitting, where things are wildly inconsistent between games and even in the same games (notably Like Likes in ALttP and its GBA version), but ''Mario'' is rather more consistent with how it portrays subjects.

I personally do not support lumping Boomerang Bean Bros. with Boomerang Bros. AlphaDream and Nintendo Co., Ltd. went out of their way to differentiate their design from the original game from NCL's standardized design in the remake in name and physiology, and they appear in the same mode. It is conveying that they do not want them to be seen as the same thing. It is not too dissimilar from deriving [[Bull's-Eye Bill]] from SMB3's red Bullet Bills, in my view. | |||
For Dry Bones, we can discuss in the article that ''Superstar Saga + Bowser's Minions'' support two different designs for the enemy, but I think the burden is on NCL to publish a game with the design from Superstar Saga under a new name before I would support a split. Alternatively, maybe discrete Japanese and English names exist for Dry Bones in the files for the ''Bowser's Minions'' mode in the event that the developer's wanted to use it there, that ''do'' establish it should be viewed as a different entity from Dry Bones. Otherwise I do not think the ''Superstar Saga'' iteration of the enemy should be split from Dry Bones. - [[User:Nintendo101|Nintendo101]] ([[User talk:Nintendo101|talk]]) 14:59, October 9, 2024 (EDT) |
