prediction: new bash article will be the least successful bash article yet

live2play4288d ago (Edited 4288d ago )

"If there’s anything we learned from games like Super Mario Sunshine, it’s that odd-sounding changes to a working formula are more likely to put people off than get them interested."

"the core fanbase might be getting a little tired of the same-old stuff"

so the fanbase is tired of same ol same ol, just run and jump and you want things to change

but when they introduce something to do rather than run and jump, you dont like it?

how the hell is it an odd change? they didnt change anything you just need to collect 1 million coins

its still just mario

so its a "working formula" but it needs to change to succeed. because according to you, it will be the least successful because it doesnt do anything new
i thought you said the formula worked?

face it your just trying to come up with something to write a crappy article to get hits

between nsmbu and nsmb2
the latter actually ADDED a change to the working formula
the former just did what previous entries did, add more/different power ups, just changed the backgrounds

nsmb2 actually included a new mechanic to the WORKING FORMULA

legendoflex4288d ago

"New content" =/= "odd changes to a working formula"

ronin4life4288d ago

Why the disagrees? @.@;
I don't know myself how this will do, but isn't it setting pre order records(or is this something I'm completely mistaken about@.@???)?

Goodbye New Mario, I Won't Miss You

Super Mario Bros. Wonder is the first Mario 2D game in almost two decades without the New Super Mario art style, and it looks all the better for it

Am I missing something? It looks exactly the same, just higher resolution… Is this sarcasm?

specialguest297d ago

Yes, you're not observant if you think it looks exactly the same. It immediately appeared different to me from the start. Mario's 3D model will always be the same, so not much difference there. However, the animation they've given the Super Mario Wonder makes it look more like a CGI Mario animation where as the New Mario Bros game looks more like typical video game animation movements

__SteakDeck__296d ago

@specialguest Yeah those animations are insane.

FinalFantasyFanatic297d ago

You really didn't notice the difference? It's really obvious, I was surprised when I first saw the trailer.

Asplundh296d ago

"Am I missing something?"

Your glasses maybe?

Juancho51297d ago

This Mario game looks great, getting a switch for this and Mario RPG. CANT WAIT, TITS JACKED.

Profchaos296d ago

Yeah I liked how much more emotion could be conveyed through the new style at first glance I didn't see much difference but then rewatching the trailer I'm seeing more and more animations that remind me of the Mario artwork from the manual of smb3

Outlawzz296d ago

I hated the new super Mario bros Style. This new one seems a lot more expressive and less generic. I hope it's a good game

shinoff2183296d ago

I prefer the 2d Mario's. Me and my girl have played them all together and mario galaxy , Mario odyssey. The 2nd player option is extremely eh

If they're not important enough to be held on their own official storefront then they're not important enough to give your money to Nintendo.

Buy these, physically, used or simply emulate them.

This article comes off as nothing more than advertising games that Nintendo, themselves, don't care to offer you... buy now!

ocelot07783d ago

Wait hang on where all the outrage? I swear when Sony tried to do this with PS3 last year. There was outrage from all corners of the gaming universe.

Why does no one care Nintendo is doing it?

MadLad783d ago (Edited 783d ago )

There has been.
A lot of it.

Simply type in "3DS" in Google and tell me what you see.

ocelot07783d ago

Oh I have a fair few websites reporting on it. But where is the outcry on here? I remember their was 2-3 approved top voted articles when Sony announced they where closing the PS3 store. All slating them and not caring about customers.

I should of worded it better. Where is all the outrage on n4g?

MadLad783d ago (Edited 783d ago )

N4G is a fanboy site, mainly frequented by only Sony.
Microsoft is their direct competition, so you'll typically only see articles that are made to rile up those fanbases.

Nintendo does it's own thing, so they're rarely brought up, aside from their fans. The most you get is the same typical two or three posters claiming Nintendo is only for infants.

If you come to N4G for educated discourse and reasonable discussion, this isn't the place. Sad as it is.

pietro1212783d ago

It's lame that it is shutting down. Now I feel rushed buying all the rpgs I missed out on the system.

XxINFERNUSxX783d ago

You guys know that even archive.org has 3DS roms, and all other console roms. I'm downloading 846GB of 3DS roms and will add the best games to my soon to be soft modded New 3DS 😁. Might as well throw in DS and other emulators in there to. Guys this would be the best way to play and enjoy the 3DS. Just need to buy a bigger micro SD card and format it to FAT32, which you can if it's even 256GB or larger there are ways.

XxINFERNUSxX783d ago

This should help if you want to soft mod it excellent guide and up to the latest and probably last 3DS firmware update: https://www.youtube.com/wat...
