Super Mario Switch- A New 3D Adventure

[Lozjam]

So, with the reveal of the Nintendo Switch, we have a very exciting showcase...

A new 3D Mario is coming! And it's actually in 3D this time!


What do you guys think of this title so far, and what would you like?

It looks like this game has a mix of exploration 64 type levels, and linear galaxy levels. Which is exactly what I would like with this title!

My first impression was Super Mario 64/Sunshine with prettier looking 3D World graphics. I need to see more before determining if it's for me.

 

[Justac00lguy]

Well still no way to determine whether it's like the Sunshine/Galaxy or like 3D World. Hopefully it's the former.

 

[Spirit]

Too early to tell but what we saw didnt look amazing, the surfaces didnt look very textured and there was a lot of empty space.

Looked like a 3D World / Mario 64 combo.

 

[Dio]

Hard to tell from the footage but I would say this was more of a proper 3D Mario like we wanted rather than another 3D world style title.

Will have to wait and see to be sure though.

 

[Din.Farore.Nayru]

I agree with Deus. When I sent back and watched clips of just the Mario pieces of the Switch reveal, I wasn't getting 3D world at all from it. I'm thinking we'll be getting a Super Mario 64/Galaxy/Sunshine game. That's what I'm hoping for.

Someone mentioned something about it being a mystery Mario game? Does anyone know anything about that?

Hope it's another Super Mario Galaxy!!!!!

I don't get why some people still refuse to recognize 3D Land/World as true 3D Mario games when they are by far the most accurate 3D transitions of the 2D games. 64, Sunshine, and Galaxy 1 and 2 may have come first, but they are not the one true way to do 3D Mario games. They were a nice deviation and they definitely still have a place in the series but they weren't perfect. As for this game, I hope it's a combination of both. Though, after the latest GameXplain analysis, I don't know why but I have this feeling that they might be doing away with levels and make the game one giant seamless platforming adventure.

Super Mario Switch is a cringey name

They're still making these? :/

I know right? Almost as shocking as McDonald's still selling Big Macs.

Too true. I just wish that they'd focus on some different franchises, all the Wii U ever got was a bunch of Mario games. Where's Metroid? Where's Kirby? (not to mention Zelda)

The last proper Mario game was in 2013 so I don't see the big deal.

 

[VikzeLink]

I personally prefer the 3D-Mario games (SM64, Sunshine and the Galaxy games. 2D-land and 3D-world are not the same thing). I know they don't sell as well as the 2D ones, but I hope Nintendo can see past that and at least give us something akin to those games.

 

[DJ Twitch]

If the game isn't built on some gimmick and plays like a genuine successor to 64, Sunshine and the like, then I'm sold. I haven't paid the slightest attention to the Mario games these last few years, and I hope this can finally redeem the series.

Also, I hope that title is a just placeholder/working title.
