And don't forget about the "tanooki" suit in SMB3 that enabled mario to shapeshift into a japanese religious statue just like a tanuki can.

I do believe they already did. Funny how bad of a translation studio they have. They ruin the whole film calling them raccoons and not tanuki. Just like in Spirited Away. They didn't know if the "golden seal" meant a stamp seal or a actual golden seal (as in the animal). Seriously that is stupidity. Because how hard is it to actually watch the film before translating it?

http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Tanuki

Notice the first sentence is: "Tanuki (狸 or タヌキ, Tanuki?) is often mistakenly translated as raccoon or badger, but tanuki are in fact two subspecies of raccoon dogs (Nyctereutes procyonoides)."
