General Discussion

Hey, good job on the chart!
 
I don't know where to put it, as it is just a fun fact, but Nintendo is hiring people in Japan, and beside knowing what are their current priorities, we also get to know some of the tools they are using at Nintendo, namely:
  • Photoshop, Illustrator, InDesign (yay, I was probably right when I said that current artwork is often Photoshopped!)
  • Maya and MEL (the same they used in the Wii U version of Mario & Sonic at the Rio 2016 Olympic Games, I thought they were mainly using 3ds Max, though)
  • V-Ray, Arnold
  • Python
  • HTML5 for the various pages (well, this was obvious...)
 
I'm not surprised they use Maya. Maya is an industry standard, and also, I've seen a pre-release screenshot of Pokemon models being developed with Maya.

Also this picture uses Maya units and NURBs

I'm surprised there's no Z-Brush though, that's fairly common too.
 
Accessories

I'm going to probably turn this page into a disambiguation page to make way for the Horse Racing version of accessories and.....

Wait, why is the plural form the main article? Is it supposed to be like that???
 
Unless the page was titled "List of accessories", I'd go with the singular.
 
It should be a disambiguation page anyway, considering we have pages on the following

Accessories (Mario & Luigi: Bowser's Inside Story) after further inspection, also, why is this a redirect to Clothing, does anyone search that when looking up clothing or is that an actual alternate name?
Gallery:Accessories

And the upcoming Accessories (horse racing) or Accessories (Mario Sports Superstars). I think the first name is better so I'll go with that one.
 
It's labeled as an "Accessory" in-game, correct? Even so, it shouldn't redirect to the Clothing article, it should redirect to the Mario & Luigi: Bowser's Inside Story version of it.

I really don't know whether I should call the article "Accessory (Horse Racing)" or "List of horse accessories in Mario Sports Superstars". I prefer the first one mostly because it's not as much as a mouthful and second we do have articles like "Sticker (Super Smash Bros. Brawl)" and not "List of stickers in Super Smash Bros. Brawl". I do suppose that "Sticker" is a "named" object in Super Smash Bros. Brawl while "accessory" in Mario Sports Superstars is referred to as lowercase so there's also a reason to name it "List of horse accessories in Mario Sports Superstars" but I'm very conflicted over the article name, still.
 
Those articles where only somewhat recent I guess so whoever split them just didn't check the redirects. That should be changed.

Yeah I'm not sure about naming either. Is there a guideline on it or just a case by case thing? It would be good to keep consistent but I'm not sure what to be consistent with.
 
If the game doesn't state that name as the accessories' proper name (with uppercase), I guess you should go with the second name, so that it's clear that this is just a name stating what they are rather than the actual official name of the accessories.
