To the topic creator, to call Sunshine a must-have Mario game and then to dismiss 3D World is criminal. Having played both I consider the latter considerably better than the former. 3D World is so much more than just a 3D Land sequel, I thought the community had figured that out by now. Just buy the game and you'll see how must-have is - I promise you will not be disappointed.

NSMBU is not must-have, but you know what, it's the best NSMB game there is. Find time for it some day, especially if you can get it fairly cheap - I think it's a very overhated game, I had a lot of fun playing through it the last couple of weeks.

The Wii U does lack a Mario game (or any game for that matter) that hits the heights of the Galaxy duo. I hope one is in the pipeline, but who knows. For now my main hope of a game of that quality comes from Zelda rather than Mario.


I won't buy 3D World, as I said, I don't like the style of this game. I don't like the camera, I don't like the small scale of the world, I don't like the multiplayer platformer, I don't like being in a small corridor in a 3D game, I don't like the ridiculous cat gimmick and I don't like the fact it does not even make full use of the analogic stick.

The thing is that the Wii U will end with the only Nintendo home console where I would not have any Mario platformer, and that's not being I don't want to buy it. I Nintendo had released a new full scale 3D Mario, I would have bought the Wii U beofre MK8. I would buy the next Mario without any hesitation if it wasn't a 2.5 Land or World game.

It almost sounds like you want a sandbox /open world system like GTA introduced. I won't say it won't happen, as the new Zelda game will have something like that. I would suggest renting Wii u's 3d mario World and giving a fair go, it's a lot more fun than your mind has decided that it is.


I don't want a sandbox GTA game. I was very happy with all 3D Mario before Nintendo went the 3D World way. Just giving me the previous formula would totally please me. I rate the Galaxy games as the best Wii games by far with Skyward Sword and as the best 3D platformers ever.
