Forums - Nintendo - I still think that the real 3D Mario will be announced and released this year.

Have you ever had a hunch? Like a hunch that you just know is true? A hunch so strong, that it's literally factual in your head? I have that hunch.

Real gamepad-using 3D Mario 2014.

2D Metroid 3DS 2014.

Majora's Mask 2014.

There's little evidence other than there literally do arguement against these things happening.

Tokyo EAD 1 hasn't made a serious game since the original Galaxy. Tokyo EAD 2 are the ones that made Galaxy 2, SM3DL and SM3DW.

For Metroid, it's one of the few staple Nintendo franchises not yet to grace the 3DS and there hasn't been a 2D Metroid since Fusion. When planning out the release schedule for old IP's on the 3DS year to year, 2014 makes sense as one of the last IPs left.

Grezzo finished OoT3D about two years ago, and Aonuma has already strongly hinted at Majora's Mask releasing on the 3DS only after a completely new 3DS Zelda game comes out. That 3DS Zelda was ALBW. This coming year fits in perfectly with the developement schedule.

I expect to see all 3 of these games at e3. It's honestly not even a question in my mind. 100% irrefutable to me. I want to say "it just makes too much sense," but it's more than that. I just... I just know it. It's not even exciting to me. When they are revealed, I won't be excited, I'll just want the reveal to finish so we can get to reveals that would actually surprise me.

Do you guys have any hunches that may as well be fact to you?

Would be amazing if true, but I'm not holding my breath.

You don't have to! Just remember me when it happens :)



I would LOVE to play a non-linear 3D Mario game that is like Mario 64 and Mario Sunshine in that regard!

Definitely possible, I have a hard time believing the last few games they put out have been using all of their resources. Something big is coming for sure :P



Mario 3D World is a better game than Sunshine, far better actually.



If it's in anyway like Super Mario 64, I'm all in.



I hope we get a 3d Metroid for the wiiU instead... We already got a 3d mario last year so one year break never hurt anyone and a Majoras mask for the wiiU as well

You expect a 3rd mario game for Wii U in under 3 years, not a chance.
