Names in other languages[edit]
Unlike most mainlineSuper Mario titles,Super Mario Land 2: 6 Golden Coins did not receive officially localized enemy indexes at the time of its release on the Game Boy and not all enemies are listed in its instruction booklets. Consequentially, most available non-Japanese names come from localizations of theSuper Mario Bros. Encyclopedia.
