What belongs here[edit]

Dr. Wario is only a character in one game, and a microgame at that. There are hundreds of microgames in each game. It doesn't deserve a mention in here, just like Kid Icarus or other Nintendo franchies don't have the WarioWare stuff in their templates.
Virus should stay. I'll concede Wario, even though he's only been in one game. Other characters should not, as they are already linked in the Dr. Mario 64 page.
We don't need to link Dr. Mario to the SSB template. It is not part of the Dr. Mario series, just like the {{Mario series}} template doesn't mention the SSB series either.

If you disagree, I'd like you to post here so we can discuss why you think they should be included here. Hbdragon88 23:40, 4 October 2006 (UTC)[reply]

Dr. Wario is "BONUS GAMES" not "BONUS MINIGAMES" (Dr. Wario NOT HAVE Time).

SSB series metioned in Mario Template (Other Games Section).

It's only the series page, and it really shouldn't be in there - it doesn't directly relate to the Mario universe as there are many other non-Mario characters (like Link and such). Hbdragon88 18:11, 5 October 2006 (UTC)[reply]

OK

Adding Alleyway[edit]

Tossed it in the puzzle set, given this seems the best place to put it (as on all acounts it is a Mario game, and Breakout clones fit more in the puzzle style than anything else).--Kung Fu Man (talk) 14:48, 13 March 2008 (UTC)[reply]
