Forums - Nintendo Discussion - Can Mario ever be cool again?

NoirSon on 07 December 2014

Being "cool" is nice but Mario like Mickey Mouse is about that paper.

People may not like everything he does but he gets money and that is all that matters. His proteges Kirby and Pikachu are also about that "Get Money" life style.

He's always had his haters. The whole Sonic brand was based around telling kids that Sonics cool and Mario a fat plumber.

I guess times have changed. Either that or your school is odd. When I was in high school (94-98) your sexuality/maturity would have been questioned for admitting that you play MK or for that matter, any Nintendo game.

But I have question. If what you're saying is true, why is PS4/Xbone pretty much the only consoles more teenagers want to play? Wouldn't the Wii-U be the #1 console if what you were saying was true?

No, because there's still a hivemind. Pretty much everyone would play Mario Kart, but everyone would still buy CoD (which is better on the PS4/XO) or GTA (which is only on the PS4/XO/PS3/360) instead of going for something like MK.
