Corona is actually an english term, too. I can't remember exactly what it means, though. Something like 'red circle'.

I believe Nokis are another variation of "Noko noko", shelled characters. Koopas.

Also, notice the archetecture in Dolphino Square. The buildings, colors, and shapes really seem like italy, and with the canal in the middle close to noki Bay's starting point, Venice.

Has anybody been to the Portofino Bay hotel? It looks like just Delfino Plaza in Super Mario Sunshine. Note that in SMS, the music in the Plaza is kind of Italian. Also, isn't bianco an ingrediant for making certian foods?

The boats look Italien but the music is more french.

I cannot believe you guys. I'm sorry, this is just amazing.

"bianco" means "white"
"corona" in Corona Mountain probably means that it's the highest point on the island, because the word "corona" is where we get our word "crown"
As for Il Piantissimo, Sapph is at least in the ballpark. It's something probably like "the real Pianta-ish guy" because -issimo is simply an intensifier of what would logically be "pianto," but isn't.
Also, Vid is right about Nokis.
Isle Delfino is based on Italy, and that should be obvious if not from anything but the insane amount of Italian words everywhere.

Well, nobody will know until they have full proof of what these words actually mean. And there are a lot of different meanings for some of the words, so you don't have to argue with a %100 believed opinion when you don't have evidence or support of any kind. In a way you're doing what Yoshi55 did-- 'Forcing your opinions without any backup references'.

If I sounded insulting, I apologize. I just don't like it when people state an opinion with an unneeded remark. It just makes everybody else feel stupid.

Empirical evidence is not an opinion.

I know of a fair few video games that are based on real places in the world. Pokemon XD is set in an Arizona clone, for example.

Way, to revive a topic that was last posted in a month ago, Mr. Mad.

It's okay, it's okay. What's a month, anyway?

*insert witty reply to LD's post here*

Anyway, Mr.Mad does have a point. The height difference is quite strange.
