Look?

What does "(look)" mean? Equazcion (talk) 01:35, 25 Nov 2014 (UTC)

The Nintendo character vanity items aren't console exclusive, but their appearance is different because of potential copyright issues. I guess "look" could be changed to "appearance" or "color" instead to make it clearer, since I thought it was just vandalism at first. Gearzein (talk) 01:48, 25 November 2014 (UTC)
Ah, thanks. Though they probably shouldn't be here then. This template is for items that are exclusive to console/mobile -- you could mangle that into saying anything that appears differently on Console is a "console-exclusive look" but I think that's silly and not very useful, practically speaking.

Well, one could argue that a vanity item's only purpose is its appearance, so a change in that appearance makes it basically a different item, but overall the look is similar enough to not make a huge difference in this case. I've gone ahead and removed them both, as they're not truly exclusive in the same sense that the other items listed are. Gearzein (talk) 02:09, 25 November 2014 (UTC)
Good point, but yeah they're not quite different enough to worry about that, if you ask me. Thanks for making the change. Equazcion (talk) 02:25, 25 Nov 2014 (UTC)
