Title: Help me -- please read!
Post by: Anonymous Mario Fan on September 09, 2001, 09:12:41 PM
I just discovered that in Yoshi's Cookie, if you don't enter a name, then the game will enter one for you. It depends on your controller and character.

1P:

Mario: MAR
Yoshi: YOS
Princess: PEA (You know what this means? Yoshi's Cookie was released BEFORE Yoshi's You-Know-What! So Yoshi's You-Know-What wasn't the first game to use the princess's Japanese name!)
Bowser: KOO (as in Koopa)

Unfortunately, the names are a bit more cryptic for 2P:

Mario: UNC
Yoshi: ANI
Princess: PRI
Bowser: BIB

I'm trying to figure out the meaning of these names, if these names have any meaning. Any suggestions?

OK, I pressed the profile sig button. What? It doesn`t show my sig? That`s not fair!

All I know is that Pri is Princess.

I laugh for the sake of laughing.

Yoshi's Cookie (SNES) and Yoshi's Safari were released the same month. Like most of the older games, the exact day is unknown...

I've previously stated before on TMK that Yoshi's Safari was the first game (in America) to call Princess Toadstool "Peach," while in Japan she was "Peach" since her first ever appearance in SMB for NES. If it turns out that Yoshi's Cookie (SNES) came out before Yoshi's Safari, I'd still say Yoshi's Cookie was the first game in America to call Princess Toadstool "Pea." Heheh. ;)

Oh yeah, my best guesses on the names for the second player:
Mario - UNC: Uncle (?)
Luigi - ANI: In Japanese, "Ani" means "older brother"
Princess Toadstool - PRI: Princess
Bowser - BIB: ???

I know,I know!
UNC=U need cheese
PRI=Princess
ANI=Anime
BIB=what Bowzer wheres when he eats.

The point is that I''m so cool, everone loves me. That''s why I carry a broom everywhere I go.

One by one the penguins steal my sanity.

One other thing I just noticed. In VS mode, the three main attacks are BLIND, PANIC, and SLAVE. Take the first letter of each attack and what do you get? BPS -- or Bullet-Proof Software, the game's developer! Coincidence, or do you think they did that on purpose?

OK, I just e-mailed Nintendo on this thing, and they responded:

Hello,

Thanks for your e-mail.  Actually, Yoshi's Cookie was released in June, 1993, and Yoshi's Safari was released in September, 1993.

So Yoshi's Cookie was released first!

June? My bad, got some bad info then.
Well, I still say Yoshi's Cookie was the first game to call her "Pea" but not "Peach." :P

Just to throw my hat into the ring, I think that BIB stands for "Bowser is Bad".

It''s lonely at the top.
