less laughter posted:And Pokkén Tournament and Star Fox Zero. I mean, yeah, those are hype and all but the only fighting game i'm into at all is Smash (I will watch the hell out of the Pokken tournament at EVO tho) and the rumor about SF0 being delayed again due to QA issues is making me doubt the title will be that great.

They just sapped all that was interesting out of Paper Mario in the newer efforts. Paper Mario has always been a love letter to Yoshi's Island and Super Mario RPG, but Sticker Star kind of ruined that. And now they're doing it to Mario & Luigi too.

It's baffling because I feel like a Mario RPG is easily the most unconstrained thing you could make. Just basically anything could be used in it. You could go to space, you could have Mario get shrunk to a tiny size, you could have Mario go into a volcano or a swamp or a castle or a lake or whatever the gently caress you want. A world of candy sure. A giant mushroom tower FINE a magical race of talking mushrooms OF COURSE I mean, poo poo, Cucumber Quest is a perfect example of taking a Mario RPG's aesthetics and applying it to basically whatever you wanted. They should just hire that gigi D chick to do a bunch of concept art for a Mario RPG and then just make that.

Definitely. I mean I have an idea as to why they'd make these choices. You look at some of their most creative titles like Galaxy and they don't sell as nearly as well as New Super Mario Bros. NSMBW is one of their best selling titles, ever. So let's standardize the look and feel of Mario games across the board so they're more accessible to fans of Mario. It's like a branding thing I guess.

Bowser has some over the top cartoon expressions in Paper Jam, you're just posting his normal talk cycle jeez. Not arguing the entire point as I do miss stuff like Cackletta's huge battle sprite and stuff in general but goofy expressions and whatnot are still everywhere.

I actually am legit surprised to see someone complain about the Dream Team/Paper Jam art style though, the Mario + Luigi sprites/models/whatever are especially great People would probably stop complaining about the NSMB games so much if they looked like that

Spellman posted:No seriously, they're about to break out into a fight there. But yea I mean he gets angry, but it's very subdued compared to the older games, even Dream Team. But his Dream Team sprites were reused? Dream Team was kind of where they started making the sprites a bit more consistent with the main series. I kind of get what you're saying, but you're not really using a good example there.

I was scrolling through my news feed and saw this: http://mynintendonews.com/2016/02/17/an-analyst-said-nintendo-cannot-be-acquired/ Nintendo Cannot Be Acquired. Apparently it would be super costly for anyone to try. It's also cute that Nintendo doesn't want to buy other companies as well.

(legend of zelda) without its famous franchises i don''t think nintendo would be as successful as it is. meanwhile sony and microsoft generally get away with not having any specific landmark franchises but are still successful bc they'e quality, versatile gaming platforms. idk i just think nintendo should take that into account and really start delivering on that front if they wanna bounce back from the wii u

I like having Nintendo around as a hardware maker, honestly. I am curious though, if Nintendo were to just sit one out and make a game for Sony, just for Sony, how much control over that game's development would Sony have?
