Forums - Nintendo - Do you expect another 3D Mario on Wii?

Mario project, that could mean like anything. From a 3D platformer to an RPG, o Mario Tennis Wii.
And Iwata said the Mario team is working on games again, but that was EAD Tokio, the guys who also made Donkey Kong Jungle Beat.
Maybe it's a new 3D Donkey Kong platformer?

Said Miyamoto:

"Making these 'traditional' games is what I am best at. Because games of that nature take upwards of two or three years to make, we always have to keep the teams working on those projects going. At any given time, the team could be five to ten people, or it could be 50-plus. People are always switching in and out of those teams.

"They are all working on more Mario, Zelda and Pikmin projects," he said. "And they all work in close proximity to me, so I can keep a good eye on them."

 

First of all: what does Miyamoto understand with "traditional games"...

I think yes, there will be another 3D mario, at least, i hope so.

I take it he means games like Mario, Zelda and Pikmin.

He said "Mario" project, not Donkey Kong.



Yes, I do.

I think it will be a straight sequel to SMG, using the same engine & assets, which will greatly speed the production time. (A few new suits, new level designs, etc., and maybe a new mechanic or two.)

I think that SMG was generally too successful (sales, critically, & aesthetically) not to do it.



I want a NEW MARIO RPG! A sequel to Super Mario Legend of the Seven Stars. jejeje MIYAMOTO PLEASE!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! JAJJAJ

SMG sequel in 2 years maybe
but before that we could see a Paper Mario RPG, which would be pretty cool

Miyamoto may be working on it, but I don't think we're going to get one.

Off topic: I'd love to see a version of New Super Mario Bros. on the Wii. I know A LOT of people who played Mario games on the Snes and the Nes that gave up the controller when Mario went 3D. A 2D game would be greatly appreciated.



It's not likely that there will be another one. Maybe another side-scrolling Mario, but I don't think there will be another 3D platformer this gen. In the mean time, there should be a new Zelda, Donkey Kong, and Luigi game. Those would be greatly appreciated by me.

Depends how long the wii lasts. Maybe we will see one in another 4 yrs. I see them making another DS one first though.



There will probaly be one more.
