Talk:Geemer

Geemer

In Super Metroid, there were purple Zoomers, so the color is not proof that these are Geemers. PikaSamus (talk) 10:16, 16 September 2014 (EDT)

Apparently, according to the tips, they are indeed Geemers. Berrenta (talk) 10:26, 16 September 2014 (EDT)

Ah. I see, then. The purple ones were called Zoomers in Super, so I assumed it was the purple Zoomer. I support now.PikaSamus (talk) 10:36, 16 September 2014 (EDT)

Since I'm the one who attempted to move the page in the first place, I think I should clarify why I decided to do so. I'll try to make this quick. During the development of Super Metroid, the Zoomer enemies from the original game were renamed Geemers. But the English localization team decided to keep the name Zoomer for the weaker ones, and call the stronger ones Geemers. This mistranslation also carried over into all translations of Metroid Prime. But as of Other M, both variations of the species are known as Geemers. The Smash Run enemies are based on their Other M appearance, and are (most importantly) called Geemers in the Tips section, clearing any doubt. So I obviously support this move.
