Template talk:Bosses
Yellow Devil[edit]
Someone keeps adding the Yellow Devil to this template and I can't understand why. Just because Sakurai uses the term "boss" to refer to it doesn't mean it suddenly fits our definition of "non-playable character that appears as a stronger-than-usual opponent in specific circumstances in one-player modes". Claiming that the game "handles boss battles differently" is also unsubstantiated; the Yellow Devil is mechanically a combination of two stage hazards (the Banzai Bill from Melee and the checkpoint from Green Hill Zone) and doesn't have anything special about it otherwise.

- Sakurai did refer to him as a boss, and he's fought like a boss too. And has already hinted at other "stage bosses" making appearances. I think it should be labeled a boss here, but I don't really feel that strongly about it. Put it up to vote, maybe? Lasifer

- I think he should be a boss. --EpicWendigo (talk) 14:53, 12 April 2014 (EDT)
Late on this, but this is something I think we should wait until more info or until the game comes out, and we learn exactly how these "boss hazards" actually function (plus see if there's a new Boss Battles mode or something that you fight them in). Omega Tyrant
