I want this, I don't want that. How many people "didn't want" 3D World until it came out and they couldn't stop gushing over it? Why can't we just let EAD Tokyo, a developer with one of the best track records in the industry, do their thing and make an outstanding game we're going to love regardless of whether or not we "wanted it" before we played it?

We all know that we want a Super Mario FPS edition deep within our hearts

Because everything Nintendo does is wrong. Simple as that.

I want Galaxy 3

Galaxy 2 is the best platformer yet but that might change once I beat 3dW

I'm not crazy about Galaxy 2 either…it felt like a "level expansion pack" more than a true new game. Sure it was a more refined version of the gameplay and level design mechanics from Galaxy…but I felt like it didn't have the heart that Galaxy had. I also prefer Galaxy's hub world, OST, and "story" to Galaxy 2. That being said...I can acknowledge that both Galaxy games are closer to the "core" of Mario gameplay in terms of having a definite goal and direction…and I can see why Nintendo was drawn to that as it is closer to 2D Mario, just as 3D Land/World are closer to 2D Mario in design as well. However…I was put off by the linearity in both. Galaxy 1 was fine…it was new and fresh and something different at the time. But what I really want is another sandbox, open-world, NON-linear Mario game…one about exploration…a true sequel or spiritual successor to Super Mario 64. Unfortunately, I don't get the sense that Nintendo thinks that's worth pursuing anymore as they don't seem to consider that style to truly be the "essence" of Mario. To Nintendo, Mario seems to imply stricter linearity…and more focused gameplay. Which is understandable, but it's disappointing to fans like me who consider Super Mario 64 one of the greatest and most exciting games of all time.

I still believe they'll make a game called Super Mario Universe…as the title writes itself and they could make it a grander Galaxy successor…keep some of the gravity and planet mechanics and some of the linearity from the Galaxies…but I would hope they'd also make some larger environments that are more open to explore. The Galaxies did have a few levels that had some room to move around…like the Honey Queen bee level…but those were few and far between. Plus, Galaxy never let you move backwards…once you launched yourself forward to a new section of the stage, most of the time you couldn't go back. I just didn't like the lack of freedom…and the lack of open area to run around and explore. Let 2D Mario or the 3D Land/World hybrid exist for the linear design of Mario, but I think it's time for them to go back to Super Mario 64 and create a proper successor to it. (I didn't like Sunshine, so I don't consider that a proper successor, sorry :p)

I don't want Mario Galaxy 3 either. I'd much rather have a new Metroid or the new Zelda. Or F-Zero or Starfox. Or Kirby. Or Anything else but Mario, please. He's getting used WAY too often lately. Which in itself wouldn't be so bad, if Nintendo would balance that with other big games of different franchises. Only they don't. And that's coming from me as a life-long Nintendo fan.

You'd think after Mario Galaxy 1, Mario Galaxy 2, New Super Mario Bros., NSMB Wii, NSMB 2, NSMB U, Mario 3D Land, Mario 3D World, Super Paper Mario, Paper Mario Sticker Star, Mario Kart Wii, Mario Kart 7, Mario Party 9, Mario Party Island Tour, Mario & Sonic , Mario & Sonic Winter Edition, Mario & Sonic U, Mario Tennis 3DS, Mario Dream Team Bros., as well as the veritable PLETHORA of e-shop VC games released, Nintendo would at least consider a new F-Zero, Starfox, or Metroid game. Also, Endless Ocean U, yes please.

You don't mind if I quote you, do I?

Lol knock yourself out. 

I wouldn't mind another Galaxy, but I would prefer a new idea. 3D World was great, but it didn't exactly do that. It just took older ideas, and improved on them or tweaked them.

Why not? It will probably be awesome, what's to lose?
