    Default Official "New Super Mario Bros." Thread



    Link

    From Kotaku:

    This is exactly what I’ve been waiting for — pure 2D platforming action and it’s looking white hot. No water squirting backpacks, no go-karts, no role-playing, just straight up running and jumping. Nintendo has published some new screens and tons of art work for New Super Mario Bros. and it instills so much old school confidence.

    Hammer Bros., Bloopers, Pirhana Plants, they’re all here. Whet your appetite for no frills Mario-style platforming shipping May 7 for the Nintendo DS. Great for waiting in lines at E3!

    It's not a classic Mario style game, but it's got the look and feel of a classic 2D Nintendo game. It's a little on the easy side, but it's fun.

    I have had my eye on this game since it was shown with the DS at E3, it's looking great.

    I would love it if they would rename it Super Mario 4. That would be awesome. Any word on the storyline? Is it set in the mushroom kingdom? It seems as though it might be. Are the koopa kids in the game?

    Oh look, Mario's standing on nothing (probably a result of shooting off a fire flower - I didn't realize those were phosphorous grenades!). Grainy looking (probably dithered) fish too. But hey, it'll be great.

    Would have to be Super Mario Bros 5. Confused? That little launch game for the Super Famicom involving a dungaree plumber and a dinosaur was called Super Mario Bros 4 in Japan

    It is on the easy site until world 7 and 8. It gets harder the second time through. Levels 7,8,9 in each world are a lot more challenging. The bosses are also more difficult the second time though.

    I would say it is more Yoshi's Island than Super Mario World, but it has elements in both. Well worth the purchase, it is a great game, even if it is a little easy. Besides you do need something until May 7, and it might as well be a Mario-style game.

    I thought SMB5 was that Mario vs Donkey platformin' game. Have they announced what screwball use of the stylus will be forced on the game?

    I actually meant SMB 5. I realized it right after I posted it, and didnt bother to change it. It really is super mario brothers 5 though. Or would it be 6? Yoshi's Island is its own series right? Or is Super Mario 64 super mario 5? I am gonna look at this new game like its SMB 5. Yeah, that will work...I think.

    Finally. I love the newer Mario games (yes even Sunshine) but it'll be good to get back to basics. Am I the only one who is having some trouble warming up to the polygonal 2D graphics though? I would've preferred the standard animated look of the other games. A little dissapointing. :/

    I think I know where you are coming from. While I am sure the game will look pretty good come May (remember, the final few months are when all the little touches are added), I would have preferred sprites. They look cleaner, they look better. While I can understand the move to polygons (I'm sure we are going to see some neat effects and plenty of new moves and gameplay additions as a result), you just can't beat a good sprite.
