    I’m liking the newer art style. Different enough from what we’ve had from all the NSMB games

    I’m surprised people care more about Mario RPG with different graphics than this new Mario game. 2D Mario has disappointed us in the past, but this takes leaps and risks Nintendo wasn’t willing to take before. The game actually looks really good, and it’s flaws are found in many other Nintendo games (People are finding the talking flower irritating, despite so many Nintendo titles having irritating side characters). From what I’ve seen from this game, it takes dangerous risks, has a nice art style, and actually has difficulty to it.

    This one may feel… weird. But I strongly encourage everyone to give this one a chance, even if it somehow turns out being not great, buying this encourages Nintendo to take more creative risks.

    (yes I will admit, this game does seem to look like you’re on drugs.)

      I think people are looking for the next quantum leap for mario games. Nothing wrong with a 2D mario platformer, but it has to do more than New Super Mario Bros and Mario Maker 2. Quite frankly I am more interested in Wonder than RPG. RPG is an S-tier game, and it would be nice to replay, but, you know, it’s a super nintendo game. One that anyone could still play right this second.

    Huh. I’ve replied to a bunch of you guys’s comments and loads of them doesn’t seem to have posted or at least are invisible to me, to anyone else seeing this. Is there a comment from me under the the guy talking about the game being 2.5D?

        Hopefully this one comes through. I think its something to do with Jerboa, as it keeps coming up with an error languagee_not_allowed, bug possibly?

          Oh that’s definitely the issue. Try posting from the website and setting the comment’s mange to english? The person you’re reply to may have deselected undetermined in their profile.

            That’s what it was in the end, I rewrote all the comments in the web browser, I hope Jerboa adds a setting to choose a language by default to post in.

    I love how well designed the characters look. After so many Mario games using similar models, it’s great to see fun animations and creative liberties for these characters. Gameplay looks awesome and super fun as well. New Super Mario Bros was a blast and here’s hoping this one is too. Day 1 buy.

      Loved the scene where Mario enters the pipe but loses his hat and quickly grabs it. The flowers seem pretty funny and entertaining too. Definitely feels like there is a lot more love and attention invested in this one!

    The graphics in this look very intriguing. I’m not sure it’ll be my favourite 2d mario game but I am sure I will enjoy it thoroughly! I’m happy Nintendo didn’t abandon the format, I was somewhat worried they were going to only make 3d Mario games going forward.

      It looks like Mario Maker means Nintendo can’t release a standard 2d Mario any longer. They had to go back to the drawing board and amp up the custom gimmicks of each level.

      The trailer blew me away with style and creativity. This will most likely be a day one purchase for my house.

        If you move in 2D it’s a 2D game. 2.5D is fine if you really want, but there’s no actual functional difference between having 3D models vs pixel art. The gameplay is what defines the game.

    As someone who enjoyed the “New Super Mario Bros.” games, this looks absolutely fantastic. 2D Mario has always been my favorite, so I’m super pumped to see something new that’s not “New”. Even though I enjoyed the “New” I think it’s time to move away from “New” to new. Ya know?

      Yeah, at first I didn’t like the new style, but as the trailer went on I started to like it more and more. It’s a refreshing update, but it almost reminds me of the style of the older games too in some ways

        Only thing I don’t like is the voice-acted talking flowers. I don’t need a voice to pop up and go “wow this is weird and wacky” when something weird and wacky happens.
