This page was voted on for deletion at Wikipedia:Votes for deletion/2-in-1 Super Mario Bros./Duck Hunt. The consensus was to keep it. dbenbenn | talk 23:53, 5 Feb 2005 (UTC)

Does there really need to be a Wikipedia article on this? Super Mario Bros. has an article, Duck Hunt has an article. Why can't in both articles it be mentioned that they were both on a 2-for-1 NES cartridge that came boxed with the system? As it is, this article is an orphan K1Bond007 20:14, Dec 23, 2004 (UTC)

Not all games should be cataloged, but this is an important piece of history in the Marioverse. --A Link to the Past 07:37, May 8, 2005 (UTC)

The Super Mario Bros./Duck Hunt cartridge

Why is the article name 2-in-1 Super Mario Bros./Duck Hunt? I have the cartridge right next to me, and the only thing that can be drawn from it is Super Mario Bros./Duck Hunt. Of course, I tend to be on the unpopular side of opinion, and someone's going to get mad at me and say, "Well, no one's complained about it before; why break precedent?"—thegreentrilby 17:50, 30 April 2006 (UTC)[reply]

I have uploaded a photo of the top of the actual cartridge, which shows the title of the game.—thegreentrilby 03:26, 1 May 2006 (UTC)[reply]

Redirect?[edit]

I redirected this page to Nintendo_Entertainment_System#Bundle_packages based on input at Wikipedia:Articles for deletion/3-in-1 Super Mario Bros./Duck Hunt/World Class Track Meet. This was reverted because "The reason for redirecting 3-in-1 was lack of notability, while this cartridge is very well-known. There is a huge gap between them, and the same logic cannot be applied to both."

I disagree with that statement because the entire content of this article is duplicated in the NES article (as in the case of the 3-in-1). Additionally, this article, as it currently stands, has no indication that the 2-in-1 cartridge has any external coverage or societal impact that isn't already covered in the NES article and those of the individual games.

Does anyone else have any input to offer? — Scientizzle 23:43, 11 July 2007 (UTC)[reply]

A discussion is needed, so... there was no input on this, showing little editorial interest, and that despite peoples' protests to merging or deletion, they don't quite care enough about making the article suitable for Wikipedia, just to make it FOR Wikipedia. - A Link to the Past (talk) 04:45, 17 September 2008 (UTC)[reply]
