List of misconceptions: Difference between revisions

On the Super Mario Wiki, it is stated that the [[Puffer Fish]] enemy appearing in ''[[Super Mario Galaxy]]'' and ''[[Super Mario Galaxy 2]]'' is actually a [[Spiny Cheep-Cheep]], this is false as the two enemies barely look alike, not to mention their behaviors are very different. Spiny Cheep-Cheeps usually home in on the plumbers and attempt to hit them upon sight (similar to a [[Rip Van Fish]]) while Puffer Fish attempt to charge at them before self destructing. Previously, it was mistaken for a [[Porcupuffer]] (another Puffer Fish found throughout the series). The official guide by Prima Games for ''[[Super Mario Galaxy 2]]'' also made this mistake, however, the official guide by Prima Games for ''[[Super Mario Galaxy]]'' as well as Nintendo Power simply refer to it as a Puffer Fish confirming it to be a separate enemy. The English ''[[Mario Portal]]'' also incorrectly referred to the Puffer Fish as Spiny Cheep Cheeps (though this source has been proven to be unreliable as it gave enemies the wrong names or referring to them as the incorrect species such as it incorrectly calling ''Super Mario Galaxy'' [[Monty]] a [[Rocky Wrench]]).
