NSMB will get a sequel this gen. Take a note.



A game I'm developing with some friends:

It is largely a technical exercise but feedback is appreciated.

@ famoursringo, can I point out it was IW who wanted to do the modern setting don't give Activision any credit, they have enough money already

Credit where it's due. I loathe Activision too, but even if the setting was IW's idea, Activision went along with it as publisher and came up with the unique idea of letting two completely different developers tag team a franchise (after stumbling over CoD 3's 7 month dev cycle).

NSMB already did.  It's called NSMBW.  And the next sequel will probably be on the DS2.

Two things about Nintendo's sequels:

1. They never come out just a year after the last game.

2. They always pack in enough new content/features/gameplay changes to justify a new purchase.

Mario Party.

Which was last made in what? 2006? early 07?   It seems Nintendo's killed that franchise.

Has only seen one version on the Wii. I wonder why there haven't been more...

Edit: Triple rejected. And as the slowest poster, I feel guilty.

Yet they did so for two generations before this. It's not like such behavior is unprecedented on Nintendo's part.
