[edit] King of World 7

I don't recall any Piranha Plant King, although I do remember a Spider King (Spider from Super Mario Bros. 2). -- A Link to the Past 09:04, July 19, 2005 (UTC)

[edit] gooey piranha

shouldn't this be a more secondary image? aesthetically speaking, you have to think in the mind of the reader: the first thing the eye dashes to is the first picture, and even to someone like me who knows well what a piranha plant from mario looks like, it immediately struck me as a bad representation. i thought i'd make a note of it; i will try to look for a good image myself, but put this here in case someone else would.

I agree. I'm not even sure if that picture should be included at all. I'll replace it if I can find a better image.--Daveswagon 00:38, 7 January 2006 (UTC)

Done. If anyone can improve on that, please do so.--Daveswagon 00:53, 7 January 2006 (UTC)

[edit] beyond Mario

Could this article be expanded to take piranha plants from other game francises into view (the Crash Bandicoot games, for instance, uses piranha plants as regular enemies)?

It could be worth noting in a specific section, if it relates to the Piranha Plant of the Mario series (which this article concerns). --BlizzardGhost 11:02, 10 June 2006 (UTC)

The Crash Bandicoot Piranha Plants have nothing to do with the Nintendo characters and therefore should be included in a seperate article.

I agree that this section should be removed, but I'll wait to hear why it should remain. Just because the Deku Baba, Crash Bandicoot PP, etc. are carnivorous plants means nothing; this article should exclusively be for the Mario PP. Hardcore gamer 48 07:22, 13 March 2007 (UTC)

[edit] Smilax

Shouldn't Smilax from Super Mario RPG be listed in the notable Pirahna Plant section? It was a semi-major boss...--MK141 22:21, 31 July 2006 (UTC)

[edit] Lava Piranha

This section reads very informally. "You" and words such as "like" are used regularly. Any suggestions for clean-up?
