I’m liking the newer art style. Different enough from what we’ve had from all the NSMB games
I think it looks very beautiful!
I’m digging the style as well. It’s good that not all games look alike.
Yeap. It looks great and different, but not so much so that I’m concerned.
I don’t think I’ll ever get tired of these games to be honest.
Same. My wife isn’t much of a gamer but NSMB Wii and NSMBU are some of the only games we’ll play together and really enjoy. I think I’d actually pay for subscription DLC for a NSMB-style game if it gave you a few new levels to play through every month or two.
I hoped Mario Maker 2’s user-generated content would feel like that, but the levels were so small and puzzle-focused that it really didn’t work.
Super Mario Bros. Wonder how high these guys got making this game, amirite?
I guess the mushrooms are finally kicking in
Wasn’t expecting to be impressed by a 2D Mario game after New Super Mario Bros. 2 and U. Really excited for this game.
and Daisy is also there, i guess.
Yes, she is a playable character.
I’m surprised people care more about Mario RPG with different graphics than this new Mario game. 2D Mario has disappointed us in the past, but this takes leaps and risks Nintendo wasn’t willing to take before. The game actually looks really good, and it’s flaws are found in many other Nintendo games (People are finding the talking flower irritating, despite so many Nintendo titles having irritating side characters). From what I’ve seen from this game, it takes dangerous risks, has a nice art style, and actually has difficulty to it.
This one may feel… weird. But I strongly encourage everyone to give this one a chance, even if it somehow turns out being not great, buying this encourages Nintendo to take more creative risks.
(yes I will admit, this game does seem to look like you’re on drugs.)
I think people are looking for the next quantum leap for mario games. Nothing wrong with a 2D mario platformer, but it has to do more than New Super Mario Bros and Mario Maker 2. Quite frankly I am more interested in Wonder than RPG. RPG is an S-tier game, and it would be nice to replay, but, you know, it’s a super nintendo game. One that anyone could still play right this second.
I’ve seen a lot of comparisons to Rayman Origins/Legends (which I’m a fan of) and that fits. I’m just glad Nintendo is trying something slightly different and making a new 2D Mario.
The game has a lot of the modern Rayman 2D games’ energy. The flowers commenting on what is happening, the musical elements, the generally trippiness.
This looks great.I love how well designed the characters look. After so many Mario games using similar models, it’s great to see fun animations and creative liberties for these characters. Gameplay looks awesome and super fun as well. New Super Mario Bros was a blast and here’s hoping this one is too. Day 1 buy.
Loved the scene where Mario enters the pipe but loses his hat and quickly grabs it. The flowers seem pretty funny and entertaining too. Definitely feels like there is a lot more love and attention invested in this one!
So, is anyone gonna mention the elephant in the room?
Finally, no more “New Soup”
Holy cow that’s trippy. The game could be really fun as a result of that style though. It isn’t exactly like Mario wasn’t weird to begin with.
I’m all for trippy Mario games, breaks the boredm of today’s realism games.
This game is so new. like newer than new. Newer Super Mario Bros
Ngl, I always thought something like this (Mario with ‘drugs’ that cause weird-ass environment changes) would be amazing. Crazy to see that come to fruition.
I’m usually an extremely patient gamer (see: if it’s not on a system I can pick up used for <=$100, or could have at some point in history before it gained collector value, I’m probably not playing it), but I’m almost willing to make an exception here. Almost.
The artstyle update is refreshing. I’m pretty excited to try this one out!
Outstanding title
