I have been hearing about this game for years and all this time it`s been available on VC... wasted time!

He also said one of the working titles for the Mario game was Retroverse, so it sounds like it would be (I'm assuming 3D) reimaginings of classic levels from the old games or something. Which would be pretty fucking awesome...

... if this guy weren't a total crackpot, which he almost definitely is.

Edit: Oh, and Retro's game is supposedly StarTropics U. LOL.

O_o please! i f*cking loved that game!!

Certainly hope the Mario Kart one is fake.



Monster Hunter: pissing me off since 2010.

The trouble is, most of this guy's "info" could be written by any well-informed, up-to-date Nintendo fan.  It's just vague enough that almost any of us could write it up and have most of it seem convincing.

Obviously, the info about Mario and Zelda in particular is just common sense. "Big, grand adventure.   Makes use of GamePad.  Been in development since finishing the last 3D Mario."  I mean, duh. Obviously. If the new game didn't meet any of those requirements it would be unusual.

Zelda... 2015. Yes, probably. Since Iwata and Aonuma were concerned enough about the wait that they decided to tide people over with a full Wind Waker HD remake. It stands to reason, it probably is a 2015 title.  Supposed to the "grandest in the series", "may or may not be in the E3 Direct."  Come on.  This is all info we pretty much already know, as people who have been with Nintendo for a long time and have come to understand how they operate the production of their top franchises.

I remember the 3D mario team started work on Mario U as soon as they where finished with 3D Land not after Galaxy 2

Unless I'm wrong, I was under the impression that EAD Tokyo was split into two teams following Galaxy 2.  The smaller, B-team made 3D Land, while the main A team began work on Wii U Galaxy successor right after Galaxy 2, albeit likely starting out on Wii dev kits and then up-scaling when Wii U specs were finalized in 2011.



The Screamapillar is easily identified by its constant screaming—it even screams in its sleep. The Screamapillar is the favorite food of everything, is sexually attracted to fire, and needs constant reassurance or it will die.

Mario would never be called Retroverse, but I do think it will be a retro-inspired, open world 3D title called Super Mario Bros. 4.

They should call it Super Mario Adventure or something simple like that.  Retroverse is a terrible, terrible title.

Super Mario 4's not a bad name, either.  I think they trademarked that back in 2012 didn't they?

hmm I can't find where I read it but what you're saying seems like the right thing to do or ells they wouldn't have had the time to finish the game in time for this year

so they've had since 2010
