Birdo

Line 37:

The ''Super Mario Bros. 2'' cast roll mistakenly labels Birdo as [[Ostro]] (and vice versa), an unrelated enemy. Later prints of the manual switch their names around as well, but keep the "birdetta" note on the one now labeled "Ostro" despite the inconsistency.

====''BS Super Mario USA''====

In the [[Satellaview]] special ''[[BS Super Mario USA]]'', Birdo first received a speaking role, though it is mostly lost due to the broadcast nature. Taking place sometime after ''Super Mario Bros. 2'', the pink Birdo and her red and green friends, once again depicted as separate characters with different voices, again serve Wart and invade Subcon. Birdo is fought in the same way as in the predecessor, though this time Birdo may appear randomly and invincibly fly at the player. She can also throw multiple eggs in the air and sometimes can throw bigger ones. Like Wart and [[Mouser]], Birdo appears frequently as a card on the screen and can cast spells to switch the player character or change enemies into bombs. In the end, Birdo and her companions lose again against Mario and friends, although it is said that they would receive better treatment in the future. The voice actors for all three Birdos are all ''okama'', a Japanese term for men who act and dress like females, furthering the franchise-long running joke about Birdo's ambiguous [[#Gender|gender]].

Line 45:

The aforementioned cast roll mixup with Ostro and Birdo is fixed in ''Super Mario Advance''.
