I understand that the Bowser fight uses Mode 7 for the entire visible area and therefore cannot display the normal status bar at the top of the screen.
However, I sometimes hear people say they would like to see an input display to explain the operation to beginners.
(In the Japanese SMW community, a newcomer convention is scheduled for May 27, and many newcomers are practicing for the newcomer convention, so the demand for the input display is increasing.)

If the top of the screen is changed to mode 1, the Bowser graphic will be missed, but if the bottom of the screen is changed to mode 1 instead, I think there will be no adverse effect.
Therefore, I propose to display the status bar on the scaffolding at the bottom of the screen instead of the top of the screen.

Oops, I forgot that the status bar can be set to a maximum of 5 lines.
I guess it would not be too much of a problem to compromise on the specification, but this proposal would only allow 4 lines to be displayed.
