the one Wonder-mode where the perspective turns isometric is so bizarre and insane, can't imagine what other poo poo they're putting in this. gotta have a 2D classic stage in wondermode there.

Weird that they ditched the level timer but there’s still a limited lives system (most franchises have done away with the latter by now)

I hadn't caught that...yeah that is weird. Makes sense they need something for coins to do, but they could've just made coins used to buy badges or new costumes. Interesting...

I am putting myself to the fullest possible use, which is all I think that any conscious entity can ever hope to do.

Mons Hubris posted:

Ok yeah Wonder looks pretty good. I wonder (no pun intended) if you'll have to use certain badges to get some of the collectibles. Should be interesting.

Yeah, I think there are going to be collectibles and routes that are only possible with certain badges. My hope is that they're aiming for replayability and levels have multiple (significant) paths through.

The powerups are getting like Mega Man variety and utility. The Wonder-mode stuff, especially the perspective change, makes me think of Eternal Darkness.

They ditched the lives system in Odyssey (I think Bowser’s Fury as well), also plenty of other franchises that had limited lives for their entire run have started doing away with them as of late (Sonic and Kirby for example) so that means literally nothing

It’s not really an issue though, just a small oddity (also somehow you missed the part where I mentioned them getting rid of another mechanic that’s been in the series since the beginning)

There's snot bubble jumping too.

I've seen fun you people wouldn't believe.
Tiki torches on fire off the summit of Kilauea.
I watched disco balls glitter in the dark near the Brandenburg Gate.
All those moments will be lost in time, like crowds in rain.

Time to sleep.
Don't think I would have ever guessed that Super Mario Wonder would be a strand game.

When you run out of lives doesn't the "Continue" require you to restart the level entirely, but if you die in a level you go back to a checkpoint?

It usually puts you back to when you saved last which is classically only after Castles, Forts and sometimes Boo Houses

Speaking of, I’m curious if they’re going to keep that mechanic or just let you save anywhere right out of the gate (or just do an auto-save after every level like 3D Land/World did)

Mario getting EQUIPS that do poo poo like "you get a grappling hook" or "charged jumps" is so sick. Feels like people doing runs of the game with Invisible Mode or "never stops running" will be incredibly funny to watch

Haven't seen the video yet, but I played a lot of Mario Bros Deluxe on the GBC and I was convinced that it was possible to beat every level in SMB while always running to the right at full speed.

Or I did my darndest. I think there were a few Bowser castle stages that I couldn't speed through.

If you die too many times, I wonder if they will shame you with the white tanooki (or equivalent)

Imagine that being visible to everyone else playing online, I would delete my account and pray my family didnt see it

Worst thing about that in the early games with it is that just having the shame box appear made it so the completion stars on your save file didn’t sparkle. It was hosed up

My disdain for you all knows no bounds.
Lives are also probably for multiplayer to give more of a failure condition since if you die in a level solo, you get kicked out, but that won't happen unless everyone dies or runs out of lives in a multiplayer session.

Lol at this new Mario having more non-cutscene voice acting than any Zelda except maybe AoC

Game looks sick though. The Koopas hip-checking each other was a nice touch

I haven't bought anything in the New smb series since the original DS one. But other than the talking flowers, this looks fun. I hope they have a toggle turn those off. But at least it seems like they got rid of the dumb dance Koopas had to do every few seconds in most of them.

New smb games have their charns but in retrospect were fairly underwhelming. Except new mario bros U, that one stands out as a great game
