Saint Rubenio Posted June 21, 2023 Share Posted June 21, 2023 That one looks fun. Neat little platformer. The thing she does with the yoyo looks like it'd be a blast to do. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Saint Rubenio Posted June 21, 2023 Share Posted June 21, 2023 I may have taken several liberties with Jahn's character. Anyway, we now know why they tried killing Melee tournaments. They're making their own. It's all about the money, babeh! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Saint Rubenio Posted June 21, 2023 Share Posted June 21, 2023 AHAHAHAHAHAHAHA WHY DOES THE JUMP SOUND IN THAT MARIO GAME SOUND LIKE FARTS Anyway, new Mario. And it's not New SMB. So that's amazing. LOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOGI okay I'm sold Oh my God Daisy! Daisy's in a game! Okay that actually looks great. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Sooks Posted June 21, 2023 Share Posted June 21, 2023 Lmao whoever came up with the new Mario was so totally high. Regardless of what they tell you, the story is that Mario and friends have fun with substances. …that’s about it tho. I’m happy for everyone who has something to be happy about. As always, there were one or two random games that looked mildly interesting but that’s about it. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Saint Rubenio Posted June 21, 2023 Share Posted June 21, 2023 A Mario game with actual imagination instead of another New SMB? Five whole playable characters and only one of them is Toad? Motherfuckin' Daisy is in a Mario platformer even if I'm still gonna play as Loogi probably? Also the end lol. Why does the flower sound like Stewie Griffin? ...I'm just wonder... Why the fuck is that the jump sound though? I know it's the SMRPG sound, but it sounds so fucking bad compared to everything else lol Just now, Shrimpy -Limited Edition- said: Ikr? My first reaction was like: 2D Mario in 2023 after Mario Maker, really? Then they showed all this cool shit My first reaction was "that looks kinda weird" My second reaction was "THE SOUND" Then they just wowed me. That actually looks like it could be the best Mario platformer since the New SMB craze. Who would've thought, all they had to do was try.

Saint Rubenio Posted June 21, 2023 Share Posted June 21, 2023 Anyway, I am of the opinion that Mario Maker doesn't really work as a replacement for 2D Mario, because for one, most people are shit at making levels, and two, you need Nintendo Online, and Nintendo Online is as we all know a war crime. So this is great to see. ...That being said, I do feel this game probably is the way it is due to Maker. More New SMB wouldn't fly anymore, because people can make that themselves now. They had to actually put imagination, heart and effort into this one to make it stand out and feel like the Mario game that you want to buy. Which is fine by me, it's about time we got another one of those. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

And that's being generous. You could go all the way back to the original New SMB and cut another 3 years. Think about it. That might be the greatest Mario 2D platformer in almost 20 years, by default, because the competition is what it is. Not that I'm knocking it, of course - like I said, it looks great. Just the fact that Daisy finally got in a game lol Also they showed her strongmanning a Chargin' Chuck to appear to my sensibilities, which I appreciate Edited June 21, 2023 by Saint Rubenio Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

There's Super Mario RPG. It really wasn't just copium after all. Sadly this is the Mario RPG with no Loogi so uh... Meh. It also looks like it's just a graphical modernization, nothing new.

And it's hers. When was the last time? That one game on the DS nobody remembers? About time she got another game. Hey, I do!

It's clearly the effects of psilocybin- the active compound found in magic mushrooms.🍄🌈 Now the subject of genuinely serious medical research as a way of helping people with various mental (and maybe physical?) health issues. And agreed SMBW is totally twisted, but good. --- I didn't know what to expect going into this Direct, I kept my expectations low, I got little out of it. That's fine, I've that big backlog to work through. Also, I could kinda tell that new XSEED game was from the company right away. XSEED is a subsidiary of Marvelous, and those cows were sooooooooo vintage Story of Seasons, what I heard just yesterday termed "bubble cows". The big beautifully bubbly bovines shall automatically save the game from being bad.🐮 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I put him in my ranking of generic bosses out of spite, to be fair. Otherwise, yeah, he's just an exposition bot at the very end of the game, and he hardly even qualifies as a boss. He's also a judgmental, holier-than-thou jerk despite his claims to be above emotion, so like... Honestly, he's just an asshole. That's how I wrote him, initially. Then I randomly got the idea to give him character development. 10 minutes ago, Interdimensional Observer said: It also looks like it's just a graphical modernization, nothing new.

Maybe we'll get Battleaxe Peach in an actual game? 11 minutes ago, Interdimensional Observer said: And agreed SMBW is totally twisted, but good. I'd go one step further and say it looks as good as it does because it seems completely unhinged. Imagination is one big thing 2D Mario platformers have lacked in the original New SMB. They've played it safe for long enough, and I'm glad they've decided to go a bit wilder with this entry. One thing that saddens me a bit, however, is my own shallowness. When I was a kid I was so obsessed with Luigi, I would only play Mario games if I could play as him in any capacity. I am an adult now, and yet, watching this trailer, my big thought was "yeah good but WHERE LOOGI, DON'T TELL ME IT'S JUST MARIO" and I truly began to get excited when they showed Loogi playable on his lonesome. Some things never change, I suppose. ...Though the more I think about it, the more it feels Daisy might wrestle a few levels off of him. It's just too cool that she's there. 7 minutes ago, Shrimpy -Limited Edition- said: Switch 2 most likely F Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Saint Rubenio Posted June 21, 2023 Share Posted June 21, 2023 (edited) Heck I was so distracted by Daisy I didn't even realize, this is a 2D Mario platformer where we don't rescue Peach. Pretty sure not counting Mario Land 1 (Daisy in that one basically just a reuncolored Peach), this is the first 2D platformer since Super Mario Bros 2 on the NES where she's actually been a playable character. They really are throwing caution to the wind. Making Peach an actual character instead of the trophy at the end. Imagine that!

Yeah I've rewatched the trailer a couple times and I'm really wondering what's up with Yoshi now. You think maybe the characters transform into Yoshi or something? There's one bit where you see all four players as Yoshis. ...The one part that irks me a little bit is where they glide, and Mario uses his cap, but Peach... pulls a pink cap out of her ass and uses that instead of her dress. Bit lazy lol, but it's a minor detail. I wonder if that's also a power-up. There's a lot that's unclear here. Will look forward to more details. ...Also in the game's website there's a goomba wearing Blue Toad's hat lol Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Saint Rubenio Posted June 21, 2023 Share Posted June 21, 2023 Of course, it couldn't be me without some cynical remark, so... At the part with the quadruple Yoshis, you can see the game a clear FPS drop. A game like this should not lose FPS. Not only is this the last genre where you want to have FPS drops disrupting the gameplay, it also doesn't look like something that should drop FPS. Nintendo, what the fuck. It seems to be caused by the long bullet bills with colored smoke trails, but like... Still, that's not gonna be a fun area to play if it chugs like that.
