Talk:Super Mario Bros.: The Great Mission to Rescue Princess Peach!

First film based on a video game?

Is this film the first film based on a video game? I ask because this is the first film in the list of films based on video games. If it is, that should get a mention. --Grandy02 (talk) 16:57, 13 October 2008 (UTC)

Images

Even though I watched the whole film on YouTube, I think that pictures should be added to this article for the people who aren't familiar with the movie. —Preceding unsigned comment added by 98.236.149.114 (talk) 22:07, 27 November 2009 (UTC)

Super Mario Bros.: Peach-Hime Kyushutsu Dai Sakusen! → Super Mario Bros.: The Great Mission to Rescue Princess Peach! – The title is extensively in Japanese which makes it harder for readers to find in the English Wikipedia, and it has a more common title used (in English) to begin with.

@IAmNMFlores:You forgot to prove anything you said, such as the requisite huge list of WP:RSes. If you'd tried a search, you'd see it is not impeded at all and works perfectly. That's because search does not function solely by typing in an exact title, and all keywords are included in the body and the redirects. In fact the current title is absolutely incorrect, but that is because it should be "Sūpā Mario Burazāzu: Piichi-hime Kyūshutsu Dai Sakusen!" instead of the random mishmash of translation (which appears to be WP:OR) and native. — Smuckola(talk) 00:54, 28 November 2022 (UTC)

I decided to do some digging and Polygon, IGN, and Kotaku all suggest that Super Mario Bros.: The Great Mission to Rescue Princess Peach! is the unofficial, but common, English name. Given this, I Support this move. (Oinkers42) (talk) 14:47, 28 November 2022 (UTC)

Support It also follows the Manual of Style of Anime (WP:MOS-AM) as "The Great Mission to Rescue Princess Peach" is the more common, albeit unofficial, English title. Yoshiman6464 ^♫🥚 16:18, 29 November 2022 (UTC)

Should we add a reception section?

I wonder if we add a section that people gave mixed or positive reviews from the first video game film adaption? I'm curious about this. 73.221.217.15 (talk) 05:41, 28 May 2023 (UTC)

Sure, if you can find reliable sources to fill it out with. -- Cyberlink420 (talk) 07:33, 28 May 2023 (UTC)
