I'm deleting the links to captainn.net and it's forum on the grounds that while the site was inspired by this show, it has very little to do with the actual show and adds no additional info to what is on here.

Ok, a couple of mistakes :

  • 1. Mother Brain from the original Metroid does have a face. It's just not the face from Captian N.
  • 2. There is no Castlevania from the Castlevania games. The castle was Dracula's Castle and is nowhere (that I'm aware of) that it is referred to as "Castlevania".

In regards to CaptainN.net in terms of pure Captain N information, information on both the television and comic book series can be found in its Captain N sector. This information includes comic book scans, transcripts, screenshots, and so on and so forth. While the entire site is not about Captain N, the site is.

[edit] There was a similar show later...

There was a similar show a couple of years later, only it was based on Sega characters, and the main character was a tomato with a green mohawk... although I can't think of any Sega games with a tomato with a green mohawk. Can someone please refresh my memory as to what show this is? (edit: and I know it wasn't Attack Of The Killer Tomatoes, which I do remember, and had a completely different style to it... this mystery show I'm thinking of had a lot of gritty urban and industrial backgrounds and it wasn't really as light-hearted as Captain N) --I am not good at running 21:46, 3 September 2005 (UTC)

  • I think that show was called Video Power, and the tomato was just one of a group of heroes. Unfortunately, I didn't recognize a single one of them.
Just to note: The animated segment of Video Power wasn't based (at least not entirely) around Sega characters. I'm pretty sure that the warrior was from (or implied to be from) an NES game, and the tomato wasn't their main character.
  • The tomato would be Kwirk, from one of the first Game Boy games. Not one of the most memorable, save that I can remember playing 99-room levels and remembering the repeated patterns. Confusing Manifestation 16:04, 2 January 2006 (UTC)
Power Team The character from it where all based on Acclaim videogames.

[edit] List of Games

Should there be a list of games that were mentioned/referenced in the show. Tetris and Baiyou Billy were actually a couple of instances and some of these were pretty weird (and fun). I've also been making references of these games and linking to this page (with approapriate info so people will understand why the links are there).

[edit] Fandom

I don't personally think that the fandom section adds anything (as the websites mentioned are linked and the date of the beginning of a Captain N fan site is inconsequential), and the person who created this section is quite aware of other Captain N fan sites that he neglects to even mention. As such, I'm removing it and adding information regarding the DVD release. Blue Slime 06:23, 17 March 2006 (UTC)

[edit] Inclusion in WP:CVG

Considering the characters included in Captain N, as well as many other elements of this show, I feel the show qualifies for coverage under the Computer and Video Games WikiProject. --Geopgeop 10:56, 22 July 2006 (UTC)

[edit] New Stills

Considering the DVD will be released in the near future, if it's possible could someone be able to update the low quality stills in the article with more suiting pictures? Of course unless the quality of the DVD videos are that of VHS tapes like they might be from the pictures already in the article. TCL 16:53, 27 January 2007 (UTC)

[edit] GEEZ!

Mother Brain sounds like the plant from the Rock Horror Picture Show! And Mega Man's voice is so stupid he's not even blue, he looks more like Bubble Man! Bassium!
