A few templates, mostly for my own easy-access purpose.

Mario Series Template Split Ideas

As it stands, the Template:Mario series is huge. Here's a few splits I had in mind.

See Also

How said section of the Mario template would look upon completing the splits.

Luigi

The character who's much more interesting than his brother Mario.

Dr. Mario

Has enough pages to stand on its own. Also tossed in a couple of unlockable iterations because why not?

Mario Kart

Basically a copy-paste. Aside from the arcade games, no individual system has had more than one entry and it never even glanced at the pre-GBA portables.

Mario Party

Has more than enough pages to stand on its own.

Mario RPG

Also basically a copy-paste.

Mario Sports

A few ideas for this one: do I do a simple copy-paste (seen below), organize by system, or organize by sport?

Other Templates That Have A Chance

Maybe.

Virtua Series

Sega's long-running umbrella. Cop, Fighter, Racing, and Tennis already have their own series templates, but this would be a catch-all that folds those in.

NES "Series" Template

For several years after the NES' release, the first-party titles tended to have the same packaging style with each game under a specific genre (as it were).

This idea began to be phased out in 1987 and finally dropped after 1989, though their replacements ("[Blank] Game") were only used a few times; Nintendo dropped the idea entirely after 1990.

  • World Class Track Meet wasn't given a "Series" label in its standalone release, but was put under Sports when Super Mario Bros. / Duck Hunt / World Class Track Meet was released with the NES Power Set in December 1988.

Pachinko

Most Americans probably know this as Plinko from The Price Is Right.

"It's called pachinko because the balls go pachink, pachink, pachink... Some of our people drink."

Consoles/Demo Discs/BIOS/Etc.

For pages that aren't listed in the BIOS/Firmware ROMs, Nintendo Console Testing Software, or Wii Channels templates.

Unserious/Misc.

The Eternal Doog

Inugami Korone is a Japanese Virtual YouTuber dog-girl known for a number of things: often playing older and/or obscure titles (always on original hardware where possible; she never uses unofficial emulation); doing marathon streams if she gets engrossed in a particular game; not backing down from tough games (see her lengthy asskicking contests against the Famicom versions of Dragon's Lair and, to a somewhat lesser extent, Battletoads); singing along to classic video game music or mimicking sound effects from games; often being amused at the silliest, smallest, or simplest things (which often includes stuff she comes up with herself); generally being a big bundle of energy and happiness and sunshine and silliness; and just being frickin' adorable.

Korone's also played Doom games, where she fell in love with the Chainsaw weapon (to the point of saying "Chainsaw, I love you!" at one point, followed by a "Chain-saw! Chain-saw! Chain-saw!" cheer) and was generally very fun to watch. Her playthroughs earned her the nickname of "Doog Slayer" and the attention of id Software, who briefly added an Easter egg to Doom Eternal - providing not only an official "Doog Eternal" logo but an official "Doog" series logo.

Game Shows

One of my favorite genres. :) Note that this is for games based on real game shows (no Smash TV or the like here) that currently don't have enough entries covered by TCRF to get a separate template.
