Am I the only one puzzled by a full open world platformer 3D Mario?

How are they going to do that? Will it be something like Super Mario Sunshine?


I sure hope not as I liked Sunshine the least of all 3D Marios

But was it because of the opena nature of the game or because the water cannon?

Sounds very believable.

This line-up should do well for Nintendo fans on the fence about WiiU but I have little faith in WiiFitU or Wii Party U to bring the casuals back (not with the gamepad at any rate). 2D Mario is much more casual friendly than 3D Mario and it did little to help WiiU so I'm not counting on 3D Mario to move casuals. Let's hope I'm wrong about all that. Mario Kart being pushed back until 2014 would be unfortunate (rather see Wii Party or Fit pushed back) as it would likely be WiiU's biggest sales driver.

IF NoA brings Fatal Frame and the new X(eno) game over, those along with Smash Bros, FE x SMT and a new Endless Ocean, and new Metroid might convince me to get a WiiU. The gamepad would actually work brilliantly for FF and EO but if I have to hold it up to act as a visor in Metroid (or otherwise take my eyes off the main screen) I will be awfully pissed. Optional Wiimote controls PLEASE.

I didn't really like the setting or the water cannon

I honestly prefer Galaxy and N64 stile

I'd be indifferent, but if I'm to believe this rumor, the touchscreen will be mainly used for ship-related features. Probably expanding on the rather limited role in Prime 3... very believeable if we take the Nintendo Land mini-game into account.

If they show Endless Ocean 3 for WiiU I might just cry.

What if the planet(s) is/are so big that you actually can explore them with your spaceship? With secret caves and stuff *_*

It's the " In this game, you will be able to scan scenery with the Wii U Gamepad " that has me worried.  Spaceship controls make sense and should be fine.  I'd still rather be able to aim with the Wiimote though.   Of course, this could turn out to be StarFox U for all we know.

Tagging for a later look through.

But... I saw Kirby in that wall of text... so I'm expecting great things, great things!

I am very confident we will see Retro's game at e3. I don't really believe this rumor post, though it's not rediculous stuff.
