I think the problem is its "isometric 3d" for most of the game, and the camra is locked.

To mimic the old 2D marios, and the stages are mostly setup to again memic the only 2D games.

Which is why some would say its not a "true 3D mario" game.

I've read similar reasoning from people who called Metroid: Other M a 2.5D game, although in that case it was highlighted as something positive, as opposed to Super Mario 3D World where it's negative.

If I remember correctly, I called that a nutcase theory.

Maybe "true 3D" is a bad word for it... because there are 3 dimensions inside the game, its just very limited movement area's compaired to older 3D games.

Should we call it a limited? small? 3D platformer instead? Older 3D games had much much futher reaching demension  (x,z,y), and bigger level designs.

 

I just think its a step backwards compaired to older games.

The thread title highlights the root cause. It's terms like "real 3D Mario", "true 3D Mario" and "3D World is a 2.5D game" that cause things to blow up. There's no point in having the word "true" in the thread title, unless you want to be obnoxious or ironic.

^This. You can ask for something without trying to tear something else down.

I honestly didn't realize that there were people who thought 3D world/Land were addiquit replacements for games like Sunshine/Galaxy...

and to go as far as saying they don't even want another 'true' 3D Mario game? That's heresy. Like people who think Bioshock 2 is the best in the series.



Bet with Adamblaziken:

I bet that on launch the Nintendo Switch will have no built in in-game voice chat. He bets that it will. The winner gets six months of avatar control over the other user.

I agree with you Turkish!

It's been nearly 15 years since Super Mario Sunshine.

Almost 20 year since Super Mario 64.

And how many 3D open/hub world platformers has Nintendo EAD produced in the last 5 years? 10 years? 15 years? Just about none. Kind of shocking when it was the bread and butter of the N64 era - and that is what's so fondly remembered from that era.

If they can attempt to revive the space combat/rail-shooter with Star Fox Zero - they can just easily do the same for Super Mario 64.



I predict NX launches in 2017 - not 2016

Probably because Bioshock 2 is actually the best game in the Bioshock franchise.

This, along with timers and the clear objective of "reach the finish" make 3D world too different in my opinion. Not bad, but not a true 3d Mario game

Galaxy 3?... how about a new theme? do we really need another Galaxy sequel?

There is now 3 categories of mario games

-the classic mario platform games (all 2d marios including new super mario games)
-the platform/exploration mario (64, sunshine, galaxy)
-mario 3d land/world which is mario classic but in 3d.

For me the platform/exploration version is the best. That is not even a contest.

But for people who loves classic marios, 3d world's more traditional approach is better.

Anyway, we want another platform/exploration mario
