in the game naruto shippuden: narutimate accel 2, is there an option there for you to change the language from japanese to english? —Preceding unsigned comment added by 119.95.130.172 (talk) 00:53, 23 April 2008 (UTC)
 * I'm not sure about that game in particular but you can usuall change settings like that in the options, or game settings screens.SunshineStateOfMind (talk) 15:04, 23 April 2008 (UTC)

Why do you want to change it from Japanese to English? The English voice acting is horrible. And sadly you use to do be able to change the language in the option, but not anymore. They have completely erased changing the language in all games. Like Final Fantasy 12 you can't change it from English to Japanese. But you can try the options and see...still see don't see why you want to listen to awful voice acting.71.142.208.226 (talk) 02:38, 25 April 2008 (UTC)Cardinal Raven
 * cardinal raven you know ( well, to tell you ) that i do not know japanese letters and i don't know which menu i'm choosing. —Preceding unsigned comment added by 119.95.130.172 (talk) 13:41, 25 April 2008 (UTC)

You don't want to change the language language you want to change the text language. Just click on the buttons until you find the option button.71.142.208.226 (talk) 21:35, 25 April 2008 (UTC)Cardinal Raven

Robotic Operating Buddy video games
Can someone tell me all of the Robotic Operating Buddy's appearances in video games. That is with the exception of Gyromite and Stack-up. Make sure you include cameos and playable appearance. :)--76.176.17.191 (talk) 01:35, 23 April 2008 (UTC)


 * There is an article right here. 206.252.74.48 (talk) 12:41, 23 April 2008 (UTC)

It doesn't say it's apperances though.--76.176.17.191 (talk) 15:23, 23 April 2008 (UTC)


 * What about the section that says "Playable Appearances"? It lists some non-playable appearances as well. Or am I missing something here? —Preceding unsigned comment added by 206.252.74.48 (talk) 15:19, 25 April 2008 (UTC)

It's lists some of it's apperances. I'd like all of them.--76.176.17.191 (talk) 14:44, 26 April 2008 (UTC)

What's that airplane?
What's the airplane in Indiana Jones and the Raiders of the Lost Ark? It's a tailless airplane -- almost a flying wing -- with two pusher propellers. I've checked Category:Flying wing aircraft and Category:Tailless aircraft, but didn't see anything likely. Is this an actual airplane, or something made up for the film? --67.185.172.158 (talk) 02:37, 23 April 2008 (UTC)


 * Is this the plane you're referring to:? According to IMDB trivia, it's not a real plane. - Akamad (talk) 03:15, 23 April 2008 (UTC)


 * Yes, that's the one. --67.185.172.158 (talk) 03:49, 23 April 2008 (UTC)
 * See flying wing for real planes of that design. Rmhermen (talk) 05:44, 24 April 2008 (UTC)

Plasticine Catalina
In My Name Is Earl, episode "Robbed a Stoner Blind", Randy eats something that he was advised not to eat, and for the next few days everyone looks to him like animated Plasticine. During that time, Catalina says something to him in Spanish, which went by too quickly for me. What did she say? —Tamfang (talk) 06:13, 23 April 2008 (UTC)


 * Check the info in this link for the dialog and a translation. -- Gwguffey (talk) 02:25, 24 April 2008 (UTC)


 * Thanks! —Tamfang (talk) 02:48, 24 April 2008 (UTC)

integrated titles
In old movies, the opening credits appear on cards before the action starts (though sometimes there's a bit of animation). Nowadays, the credits usually appear over the action. When did the change happen? Is there a flick we can point to as leading the way? —Tamfang (talk) 06:33, 23 April 2008 (UTC)
 * There is some information at Title sequence. I'm not sure when the change took place, though.  Credits that appear superimposed over scenes required more expensive optical effects than shooting art cards directly, so this may have been a factor in older movies.

This is driving me insane
Alright everybody tap into your childhood for a second. Does ANYONE remember how to beat Forest of Illusion 3 the secret way on Super Mario World? it would be greatly appreciated if someone could help. the juggresurection IstKrieg! 13:33, 23 April 2008 (UTC)
 * GameFAQs - http://www.gamefaqs.com - would be more likely to help you out with this one. Neıl ☎  13:37, 23 April 2008 (UTC)


 * Well, I'm a self-proclaimed expert at this game, but I don't know the names of the stages, but I'll try anyway. If you are talking about the water stage - there is a fake wall near the end (right before a whole lot of sleeping fish) that you walk through. If you are talking about the floating bubble stage - you have to go into the pipe right before the goal as large Mario to break blocks that seal away a key. If you are talking about the Lakitu stage (on the far left of the map), then you will need to steal a Lakitu cloud and fly over to the one pipe you can't jump up to and go into it. Hope this helps. 206.252.74.48 (talk) 15:16, 25 April 2008 (UTC)

Enter the bubble! Most enemies in this level appear in bubbles, and only be popping them can you set them loose. The enemy you see coming at you at first is a Bob-omb, an old Super Mario Bros. 2 enemy. Jump on it and then throw it before it explodes, kind of like a Goomba. Now head right, avoiding a Goomba bubble, and jump over the pit after the pipes, taking the first Dragon Coin as you make your jump over it. Now, here you should jump to the jumping board and bounce up over the pipe. Hit the ? Block for an Egg to come out (Yoshi or a 1-Up Mushroom if you already have Yoshi).

Now jump into the pipe to the right to play the matching 1-Up game. When you reappear, go right and jump a gap to reach a Rotating Block pair. Hit the lower one to knock a red shell into the upper one, setting loose a jumping board. Carry it right, drop it, and then bounce to the yellow pipe. Jump right to the second Dragon Coin and then jump the gap. Here, run right before the Goombas fall down and you'll pass right through the midway gate, meeting all your checkpoint needs.

Jump over the gap to the right and then onto the pipe. Jump through the third Dragon Coin to land on the other pipe. Now go right, under some bubbles, to reach a green pipe. Jump over it and hit the ? Blocks for coins. Continue right to more coin blocks, in the middle of which is the fourth Dragon Coin. After it you'll find Chargin' Chuck. Jump over him to the pipe, drop to the fifth Dragon Coin, and then jump to the goal gate.

 * Good job quoting the directions to the regular exit. But he asked for the secret exit. (It's down one of those pipes near the end) --tcsetattr (talk / contribs) 19:17, 25 April 2008 (UTC)
