I'm NOT happy that "3D Mario" now means "Galaxy". Does he realise that 64 and Sunshine had unique, worldbuilding, nonlinear qualities that people also liked? Or that random platforms in space, while easy to develop, is no longer innovative?


Galaxy was used because it's mostly what's on current gamers' minds rather than those older ones like 64 and Sunshine.  Just like Galaxy was made with Sunshine/64 in mind.

If other companies dared to bait and switch the core gameplay of their franchises like Nintendo did with 64 to Galaxy they'd be flamed to death.



I want a Super Mario 64 sequel, one with a bigger castle more levels, more pitfalls, and stuff

I'm not exactly sure what this has to do with what I said.

It's nothing like 64/Sunshine and can't be used as a word to stand in for it.

Then Super Mario Bros. 5!



3D Mario's are always fun, so this will be too. No need to worry at least you judge a game by how it looks, or worse, by how it doesn't look.

I never said that.  I just said that Galaxy was made with Sunshine and 64 in mind.  So the next singleplayer 3D Mario game will have Galaxy in mind when being made.  So your point really doesn't make much sense with what I was trying to say.
All I was doing was saying why he only talked about Galaxy.



What makes me angry is he essentially confirmed that this game is focused on multiplayer, and it's only being made because they want super easy Mario.

Fuck that Nintendo. No way in hell I'm buying 3D world now, you don't need to make everything for moms and old people, you have actual fans.
