Forums - Nintendo Discussion - Miyamoto: Mario Shouldn't appear in so many games

Honestly I'm happy with NSMB and Galaxy but I think that they shouldn't make another mario game for some time now...if ever they want to make another 2D platformer in the near future it should be Donkey Kong.

stop it with mario parties, stop it with baseball, soccer, basketball, golf, tennis, DANCING, olympics, and focus on pure:

-Racers

-RPGs

-Platformers (duhhh)

-Smash Bros



Translation (via Yahoo's Babel Fish):

"Mario is a very important personage in the world of Nintendo and we want that it appears in our titles. In fact there is a pile of games in which it fits very well. Nevertheless, if it appears in too many titles, then it will lose its singularity, and for that reason we want to be very strict with the next appearances of Mario in our games.”

 

The Wii has not seen a Mario Golf and only a NPC re-release of GC Mario Tennis.

There has only been one Mario Party (compared to three for the N64 and four for the GC). 

And my guess is that Sluggers will not return next generation. And possibly not Strikers. 

 

In other words, Mario is returning to Mario games and highly successful spin-offs -- 2D platform, 3D platform, Kart and Smash Bros.

I am Mario.


I like to jump around, and would lead a fairly serene and aimless existence if it weren't for my friends always getting into trouble. I love to help out, even when it puts me at risk. I seem to make friends with people who just can't stay out of trouble.

Tag:I'm not bias towards Nintendo. You just think that way (Admin note - it's "biased".  Not "bias")
(killeryoshis note - Who put that there ?)
Switch is 9th generation. Everyone else is playing on last gen systems! UPDATE: This is no longer true

but i love Paper Mario, Mario Party, Mario Kart and Smash Bros!!! D:

i have a bad feeling about this... :(



Miyamoto's the man!



The more Mario games like Galaxy 1-2, MKWii, NSMBWii they release the better I'd say.



If it isn't turnbased it isn't worth playing   (mostly)

And shepherds we shall be,

For Thee, my Lord, for Thee. Power hath descended forth from Thy hand, That our feet may swiftly carry out Thy command. So we shall flow a river forth to Thee And teeming with souls shall it ever be. In Nomine Patris, et Filii, et Spiritūs Sancti. -----The Boondock Saints

hopefully that doesn't mean they won't use every other character EXCEPT Mario in sports titles :P

I would still like another Mario Tennis, but please, bring back the unlockables.



the words above were backed by NUCLEAR WEAPONS!

bye Mario Party, welcome wii party
