Talk:Nintendo Space World

Spaceworld 2005?
(70.244.100.3) has stated that there will be a Spaceworld 2005. I can't find anything online besides speculation on forums (Nintendo hasn't posted any press releases on the topic yet). No doubt that this will be confirmed (or denied) in the near future. -JJLeahy 04:31, 2 Jun 2005 (UTC)

The Wii wasn't revealed at a SpaceWorld!!
So I am going to remove it from the list of systems that have been revealed at a SpaceWorld.--Dexter111344 20:29, 27 July 2006 (UTC)

last spaceworld 2000?
the last spaceworld was 2001 not 2000.its when they 1st reveled mario sunshine & zelda:the wind waker.

Any connection to the Nintendo World 2006 trade show?
Both Spaceworld and the current Nintendo World 2006 are very similar, since they are revealing new games during the fall season.

Another meaning
SpaceWorld is also the name of a Norwegian electronics store chain. --Ifrit 13:51, 25 December 2006 (UTC) http://www.spaceworld.no/

Shoshinkai
Prior to 2000, the SpaceWorld expo was known as the Shoshinkai show. I think this article should make note of that, and correct the bit that says "SpaceWorld 1995" when it should be "1995 Shoshinkai" —Preceding unsigned comment added by 64.28.254.26 (talk) 22:40, 5 May 2008 (UTC)

Shouldn't it be written "Spaceworld"?
All the official references to the name I could find (the Nintendo website and the posters at the events) write it out as "NINTENDO SPACEWORLD". --86.18.248.75 (talk) 12:51, 2 October 2016 (UTC)

Past Tense Phrasing
This event has not occurred in over 15 years, but this page still says "Nintendo Space World is" instead of "Nintendo Space World was". Should this phrasing be changed to past tense so that people can understand that, at this time, this event is no longer happening?Latitude23n (talk) 19:59, 2 February 2018 (UTC)

Subjective Language
There's a bit of subjective language in the first 2 paragraphs that seems somewhat out of place on a Wikipedia page, specifically this sentence:

"Some major exhibits would be teased and then never seen again, leaving fans and press to maintain hype and inquiry for years, as with the spectacular Super Mario 128 demo, the controversial Wind Waker teaser video, Mother 3 (EarthBound 64), and a litany of lost 64DD games."

Opinions such as "spectacular" and "controversial" seem very out of place, as does "maintain hype and inquiry for years"

Just a thought I was having while reading. Could this be reworded to seem less subjective? Yokai64 (talk) 12:16, 7 December 2022 (UTC)


 * Those are not subjective or opinion at all, but objective fact. The WP:LEAD section exists only as a summary of what is already reliably sourced in the body, which it is, because it's true. You didn't even name a reason why you thought it was subjective, but you definitely misread it and projected your mistaken view onto it. The whole point of the extraordinary subject of an entertainment trade show is to create spectacle, and spectacles are spectacular. It's often vaporware though I simply didn't find a source with that particular slang yet. That's not an opinion at all, as the lead already made perfectly clear. An encyclopedic context isn't the hyperbole of an entertainment industry. It doesnt even necessarily mean "good". Words don't get much more inherently neutral than "controversial", as is advised in countless Wikipedia policies. The only thing subjective here is a failure of reading comprehension, sorry. — Smuckola(talk) 12:59, 7 December 2022 (UTC)
 * Sorry, I'm a new contributer to Wikipedia and I'm still learning. I'll take your kind recommendations and go back to my English class. Yokai64 (talk) 13:14, 7 December 2022 (UTC)
 * Ok cool. I tweaked it slightly plus wikilinks, if that broadens the understanding. I'm not sure if I can find the Wikipedia guideline offhand about "describe the controversy" as a basic tenet of neutrality, but maybe WP:NPOVT. That's one of the more advanced ideas for cases where there is no simple right or wrong. Here, it's just basically a wildly mixed reception of love, hate, confusion, and skepticism. In any case, the lead section isn't even meant to be directly cited (WP:LEADCITE) and is just a gross summary of why a person should just read the body, and it isn't responsible if they don't. ;) Thus, the lead is probably the closest thing Wikipedians can get to original prose. Also, Spaceworld is insane. — Smuckola(talk) 14:16, 7 December 2022 (UTC)

Should Kotora get its own wiki page?
Kotora is an electric tiger that was in the prototype of both Pokémon Red & Blue and Pokémon Gold & Silver, but ultimately scrapped in the final version. Many fans has wished this creature would makes a return in the main series due to its round shaped design on top of being cute. It is probably the most known of the unused design, so that makes me wonder if a wiki page would be necessary. Thanzonomo (talk) 09:07, 23 March 2023 (UTC)
 * Probably not. WP:N WP:RS — Smuckola(talk) 17:48, 23 March 2023 (UTC)
