Buy or Sell: PS4, Xbox One, Vita, Super Mario 3D World

GotGame: Is the PlayStation 4 a better buy? Should Nintendo have instead developed a Super Mario Galaxy sequel? Is the PS Vita dead in the water?

I feel like the headline should have had Beyond Two Souls...

Anyway, the best buy would probably be the PS4, depending on which games you're excited for.

The thing that really kills me about 3DLand isn't the level design or gameplay I see everyone else whining about... it's the overall aesthetic. Gone is the brilliant fairy-style art design and music of Galaxy, and in it's place is the same soulless much of NSMB.

Instead of getting a spiritual true 3D Mario game sequel for the Wii U like Mario 64 was to the n64, Sunshine for the Gamecube and Galaxy for the Wii...we're getting Super Mario 3D Land Wii U. That's my problem with it.

Did you see a game like Sunshine before the game came out...no

Did you see a game like Galaxy on the DS before it came out...no

Problem is it feels like no thought has went into it at all. How can you add co-op for example, up to four characters, but not let people play online.

I refuse to class the game as the TRUE 3D console Mario game like 64, Sunshine and Galaxy

Super Mario 3D on the 3DS was far from soulless. (Which is this game is based on)

What you're thinking about are the new super Mario Bros series.

Am I the only one thinking that it's a bit too much with Mario in so many game. Wish Nintendo would innovate and do something not Mario just for one year. Anyway the gameplay videos of 3DLand looks sooooo boring, I would rather put Mario Galaxy 2 in my Wii U and try to finish that one.

Willygunz3944d ago

Never judge the gameplay of Mario on first few levels nor levels that are on Demos as they are always easy, basic and not really challenging at all.

When has any Main Series Mario Game been bad?

SELL: what a stupid article!! let's be SO CALLED fair and have siskel and ebert like debate on the video game companies properties!! this would have been done much better, by both SISKEL AND EBERT, IF THEY WERE BOTH STILL ALIVE!!! No wonder Iwata has no faith in the video game media, NEITHER DO I!!

Agreed. Great for multiplayer.

If they do make a sequel, they should incorporate Bowser’s Fury’s game design into the mix. Think Bowser’s Fury’s overworld where you can find warp points to linear levels like Mario 3D World.

I still say the series peaked with Galaxy. They've put out good stuff since then, but nothing really matched up.

Movieworld614d ago

Absolutely no way odyssey should be above either galaxy. Laughable

Forget Odyssey 2 - It's Time For Super Mario 3D World 2

It's time for Nintendo to give the Super Mario 3D World formula another chance with a new game built from the ground up for the Nintendo Switch.

richardmmorales639d ago

Rather have a new Super Mario RPG.
Super Mario RPG: Legend of the Seven Stars is my favorite Mario. I'd event take a remaster/remake.

Babadook7638d ago

My favourite Mario’s are Mario 64 and SM World SNES. Neither Odyssey nor 3D World were great imo.
