==Trivia==
==Trivia==
Mamu is a character who originates in another game,''{{smw|Yume Kojo: Doki Doki Panic}}'' (夢工場ドキドキパニック|夢工場 ドキドキパニック lit. "Dream Factory: Heart-Pounding Panic"). He was the main villain in the original game, where he is the ruler of a storybook world and he sets the events of the game in motion by kidnapping two children and bringing them to his dream factory. The game was localized in the United States as {{smw|Super Mario Bros. 2}} with Super Mario Bros. characters replacing the original Arabian Nights inspired characters. The US localization changed his name to {{smw|Wart}} and instead, he is the ruler of the dream realm [[smw:Subcon|Subcon]]. In ''Link's Awakening'' he retains his original Japanese name, Mamu, in the English localization.
*Mamu is the main villain of ''{{Smw|Yume Kojo: Doki Doki Panic}}'', released outside of Japan as ''{{Smw|Super Mario Bros. 2}}''; however, his name was changed to {{Smw|Wart}} during localization. This was given an indirect reference in ''[[Hyrule Warriors]]'' with Ganondorf's Mamu palette swap.
