Official "New Super Mario Bros." Thread

[incubus421]

Ah, this is fantastic. The upcoming titles are looking really great. Suikoden 5, Kingdom Hearts II, Atelier Iris 2 in april, and now this is early May....hot damn, things are looking up....and the PS3 hasn't even been released yet! haha

Finally, when questioned about the possibility of a console-bound Mario side scroller, Tezuka replied, "The probability is not zero, but no further comment at this point." Then he just laughed.

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.

I'd really consider "Yoshi's Island" a *YOSHI* game and not really a Mario Brothers game.

I think that game would have sold well enough on its own without having to have the "Super Mario World 2" tacked onto the end.

[SEGA-SAMMY]

There are so many good games I want coming for the DS. This , Brain Age, Tetris, Harvest Moon. Damn.

And the Koopa kids are back which is just awesome.

[Jasoco]

I can't wait! I'm very curious about that first shot with the SMB 1-1 remake. I wonder if there's more older levels hidden in the game.

I cant wait to find out how long the game is.

[THATinkjar]

I had a dream last night that they included a remake of Super Mario World in this new polygonal look. How neat would that be? I wouldn't put it past them, I really wouldn't!

[GrandAmChandler]

Bumping this since it is almost time to play! Are you excited? I sure am!

The Bowser Castle video and music really REALLY made me want it even more. The music is awesome! Especially the new castle music. I CAN'T WAIT!



This is pretty sick and twisted for Nintendo.

Nintendo != Teh kiddy?

So twisted I love it!

[DeuZZ]

Well, the game has been leaked and I'm playing it right now. Loving it so far!

Yeah? I heard it had been dumped. I think I'll resist the urge to play it this way, though - and wait for my copy to arrive.

[DeuZZ]

Whoops, I mean it has been dumped from one of the review copies that has been sent out, not leaked.

One big minus is the way to easily available 1-ups. I'm at the beginning of world 3 and I already have 34 extra lives.

It was like that with Super Mario World, too. Does anyone really play a Mario game for its difficulty?

[Leo_A]

I have a dumb question.

I usually just wait a week or so before going to hunt down a game that just came out. Should I be able to find this in a place like a EB on Tuesday afternoon?

Guess what...there IS a console-bound side-scroller in the works for the cube. SUPER PAPER MARIO. and it looks awesome as hell

[Leo_A]

Guess I'll take my chances Tuesday. Release date is Monday I believe, which should mean in stores at Tuesday if it gets there on time.

Can't wait to play this.

[Jasoco]

According to my Kmart ad at my store, it arrives on the 17th. But has that * next to it saying "Release date subject to change". I am assuming my store won't get it until the 17th. So I'll probably go hunting on Tuesday to see if I can get it earlier. I'll lose my 10% discount, but I don't care as long as I have it. And if I can't find it at GameStop or EB, at least I'll still have my Kmart to fall back on. Either way, I'm going hunting on Tuesday.

MUST HAVE GAME!!!!

[stuffedmonkey]

I have it on preorder at EB Games in the mall near my work. Hopefully they have enough copies!
