Hm? I like Mario Tennis GB(A), but I wouldn't call it part of the "Mario Universe" or anything. Even in that game, Mario (and the Mushroom Kingdom) were legend-like and not a normal thing at all.

Like I said before, the RPGs, Mario Kart and the latest Mario Party have always been doing a good job of using the Mario universe in a good way.

Yeah, but what I'm getting at is that the main games could use some plot involvement during the gameplay to compliment it, jumping straight into the next stage is one thing, having a decent story is another thing. For one I'd like to know the real reason why Bowser STILL keeps kidnapping Peach (one reason is to best mario, but c'mon that shit's getting old).

Bowser wants to marry Peach :p

Yeah the RPGs spell that out quite clearly.

Late to say it, but just because I said it in a hostile manner doesn't really give you the right to even tell me I should go to 4chan.


going back to the subject of bowser and all, I would like to at see one game where he doesn't even kidnap peach at all and he just destroys the mushroom kingdom in a new plot twist.

at least peach would be playable along side mario and luigi.

Kind of shocking how a 3DS game can look so FLAT

Epic Mickey 3DS looks more 3D than this game and that's basically made with Genesis sprites

They should seriously do the NSMB games like Donkey Kong Country Returns or Sonic Generations - fully 3D with using the backgrounds and foregrounds as opposed to "3D character 2D everything else" if they're going to use 3D models

Or hand-draw all the sprites like Wario Land Shake It and at least try making it look nice

Otherwise it just looks ugly

I'm sure the game will be fine but it just looks bland and uninteresting in the screenshots so far

This topic needs to just be merged with New Super Mario Bros U.



EDIT:
Super Mario Land 2: 6 Golden Coins

Reznor! OMG! I can't believe I'm psyched to see them back.
Also, NSMB2 being all coin-themed just cries for Wario.

NSMB2 looks great, lots of interesting powerups, the golden Mario looks awesome. However a lot of the animations looks incredibly similar to the first, running and jumping and such. I wouldn't be surprised if they simply upgraded the sprites from the first for 3D.

It looks like you'll be able to get 99 lives in this game real quickly.

Personally, I'm a fan of games where I can replay levels and try for a higher personal best, so this game looks like one I'd enjoy.

I'm far more impressed with NSMBU than NSMB2 personally.

Then again, NSMB2 seems alright given that I know what the whole gold thing is for. Maybe this will mean that coins will get a new purpose to the game?

NSMBU seems to have more interesting levels, but both games are looking fine enough <:

mean, really


its exactly,¨EXACTLY the same shit, plus recyled stuff from super mario world.

and they are not even trying. these are exactly the same animations aplied to the same models.
