    Fixing Mario Pinball Land - Scans and new advice inside

    Guys, in addition to these naming considerations, the mariowiki Items list for this game is missing the most powerful item in the game, which is a pretty big huge omission. When you clear a Red Coin challenge, a new red box appears with a white exclamation point, in the boss area where the...

    Fixing Mario Pinball Land - Scans and new advice inside

    The small bestiary from the manual (full pdf file linked in previous post) is precisely consistent with the Nintendo Power listing. The only inconsistencies between the Manual and Nintendo Power, for Mario Pinball Land, are the following: Manual-vs-NP #1) Haunted House (manual, and this Wiki)...

    Worlds Wiki corrections, last one: 5) Shipwreck is how NP p117 (Porcupuffer description) calls 'Sunken Ship'. The vessel is never named in any other place, manual included. And that is all :)

    Fixing Mario Pinball Land - Scans and new advice inside

    Enemies (NP, p116): Bosses (NP, p117): And a link to the Game Manual (pdf). The above are the only known sources of official Mario Pinball Land information (to my knowledge!), besides page 114 and 115 of the same issue that provides some tips about starting the game. ***JOBS*** That...

    Re: There is no "King Tut" in Nintendo lore, there is only Egyptian Koopa! To the mods - This page likely needs an edit to reflect this "new" knowledge: http://www.mariowiki.com/Spiny_Cheep_Cheep The page contains ambiguity on what the enemies are actually called in Mario Pinball Land. Now...

    Re: Perplexed by origins of name "King Tut" vs Tutankoopa To all - I will post a (partial) scan of page 117 when I receive the issue! Would be nice closure for many, I'm sure.

    Re: Perplexed by origins of name "King Tut" vs Tutankoopa I'm a collector so I'll be glad to have that Nintendo Power issue, even if we've already gotten to the bottom of this. I can't believe the King Tut rubbish survived for a decade on this site, influencing the whole of the internet and...

    Fixing Mario Pinball Land - Scans and new advice inside

    Re: Perplexed by origins of name "King Tut" vs Tutankoopa I just picked up Nintendo Power 185 (Nov 2004) from the auction site. I'll have it within a couple weeks, all. Maybe this will help get to the bottom of this at long last; the third game on the bottom row is Mario Pinball Land. I...

    Re: Perplexed by origins of name "King Tut" vs Tutankoopa The staff may move this thread at will (of course), sorry about that! However it's a pretty unusual situation and interesting topic IMO. Yes, calling him King Tut, is pretty ridiculous. Besides the fact it was made up (look high and...

    ------------------------------------ RESOLUTION EDIT -The boss of the Shifting Sands Stage from Mario Pinball Land is Egyptian Koopa; "King Tut" was a (bad) misnomer that persisted in error for nearly a decade. -The Paper Mario boss, Tutankoopa, is (indeed) a different villain altogether with a...
