Another Mario vs. Donkey Kong game is happening.

Any turboweebs wanna translate?

I have a feeling this one will be free to play if you have amiibos.

Yeah, looks like some things are new. I might get it, since I still like the modern Mario & Donkey Kong.

It has amiibo in the title, so there's a possibility the game will be centered around amiibos, though. I hope the game atleast let us to play without amiibo.

>>323746120
It's likely coming out very soon here anyway. The developers are actually American if I recall correctly.

>>323746280
I think I saw a cross-platfrom deal (like the last installment) in the trailer. If this is true then it's not free. I do think that it will be cheaper though; Mario vs. Donkey Kong: Tipping Stars was $19.99.

>>323746454
If it's a paid game then I'm sure that's a guarantee; you'll likely just be stuck with that block robot seen in the trailer. If it's free and requires an amiibo then you can view it as a $13 game (unless you only own an old Nintendo 3DS (XL) and don't have the amiibo reader).

>amiibo

in the bin

For fuck's sake, is there some kind of corporate mandate thats stopping them from making another game like the 94 and 04 ones?

>NST

>According to our source - who is familiar with NST and the project - the game is apparently finished and expected to launch at the start of 2016 in North America. It will be free to download for any player who owns a compatible amiibo, but we've been told that this is part of a special promotional campaign, which means it could become a paid-for release after a period of time. To confuse matters, Nintendo of Europe is apparently keen to release it as an entirely free download later in the year.
>In other news relating to NST, a recent job ad suggested that the studio was looking into developing smartphone games. We've since found out that the ad listing was posted somewhat ahead of time at the behest of Shigeki Yamashiro, NST's president. Yamashiro is, according to our source, exploring the possibility of turning NST into a totally mobile studio, although it is understood that no mobile games have actually entered production as of today - NCL has yet to give its blessing to the proposed shift.

>After traversing six puzzle filled worlds, while freeing cursed Mini Mario toys along the way, Mario catches up to Donkey Kong and Pauline in a darkened room, the lights are switched on quickly and Pauline and Donkey Kong are standing at the ready in front of a "surprise" banner with two Toads to greet Mario.
>The ruse revealed, Mario can then continue through more fun worlds and bonus levels knowing Pauline is happy and safe.

The original one was actually pretty good because we were finally getting a sequel to classic Donkey Kong, just like the first NSMB was good because it was the first new 2D Mario in years.

NST has always been a mobile-tier developer that's only developed casual trash since 2006. It'll probably be them and SPD's Production Group 1 (WarioWare, Rhythm Heaven developers) that lead Nintendo's charge into mobile (alongside Pokemon Go, if that counts), and neither will be a huge loss for console gaming.

Single dud costed Nintendo a lot of money
>Early in Hammer's development, NST created Mario vs. Donkey Kong 2: March of the Minis for the DS. Again, a substantial amount of cash was handed over to Silver Ant for CGI cut-scenes for the game, leading to the person in charge of budgetary concerns on both H.A.M.M.E.R. and Mario vs Donkey Kong 2 getting a slapped wrist from Miyamoto. He apparently branded the massive investment in CGI "superfluous", and NST would do no further business with Silver Ant as a result. Interestingly, since the original Project H.A.M.M.E.R. video went live, all references to the Nintendo projects that Silver Ant worked on have been removed from the company's official site.

It would be nice if they could at least reference Sarasaland in a spinoff or crossover, or hell, why not make Mario 3D World DLC where you can go there?? just make some levels with floating in space, add the magician powerup, mix in UFO enemies occasionally, have Daisy at the end, bam, you just made money from every Daisy fan in the world + everyone who bought 3D World

I think one of the worst aspects was how no pre existing amiibo were compatible.
I do not purchase amiibo but I keep hearing collecting them is a bitch and I kept thinking that in the long run, how many games would they end up being compatible with in the first place? What good is a Lottie amiibo?
The fact that they made the amiibo just because they thought it would be cute and that they thought fans will like it because it was cute was baffling.
>AK: Initially when the Amiibo was announced, there was nothing really said about Animal Crossing Amiibos or any plans for that matter. But as the Animal Crossing team, we were confident that if there was one, it would be really cute... honestly, we just wanted Animal Crossing Amiibo. We wanted the company to make Animal Crossing Amiibo, so that's why we made a game that works with them.

>>323756182
>>323755761
Yeah, Nintendo of Japan evidently didn't have enough faith in NST to develop an action game because they thought Americans don't know how to make a satisfying third person action game.

Were they right?

>>323750585
i've always wondered, what does mario assume the worst case scenario is when his lady friends get kidnapped? like what are the stakes of super mario's adventures, besides beating up the kidnapper or killing bowser again? what happens if mario fails?

what if, in the context of Tipping Stars, Mario dies in a level and DK was 'just kidding', and lives with that on his conscience?

why is it only a joke this time? was the kidnapping not a joke before? are Pauline and DK friends to arrange this?

They were investing heavily for CGI cutscenes for what was going to be a Wii game. Let that sink in for a moment.

>"Well, of course I worked on both 1080 and Wave Rave, so on the one hand I think it's very difficult for me to say, but I think that form in which we present the snowboarding game [in Wii Fit] and the power cruising game in Wii Sports Resort is something that's going to appeal to a much broader audience. And really, what I'm trying to do is find a way to bring these interactive experiences to as many people as possible," he said. "So I think for the time being I'm probably going to focus my attention on more of that, but if I find something that's particularly interesting or a way to take that and develop it into a much richer experience, I can't say that I'm not going to do that."

Its not baffling at all.
Most people do not buy amiibos for gameplay reasons.

People want Nintendo collectibles and merchandise.
Nintendo hasnt been offering anything proper since the 90s pretty much so now everybody is all over the Ameebers.

They really should slice off those NFC chips, make the figurines a bit cheaper and then sell them as collectibles.
Pretty much everybody would prefer that.

NST still exists?

Do you have to rescan them every time you want to play?
That sounds annoying as fuck and not viable at all for a portable game.

So this is that amiibo game they were rumored to make

I mean the actual acrobatics; handstands, tightrope flipping, tumbles, and death defying leaps that can actually kill you if you fuck up and fall too far.

You're a retarded memespoutter.
All the Mario vs Donkey Kong games are great.
Being different to the original doesn't mean they lack soul.
Specially Tipping Stars wit the endless content.

The absolute worst.

Peach already ursurped Pauline in this series, though. Being Pauline is suffering.

The fuck are you on about?
If anything, the fact there is now a ''Wario'' amiibo series confirms not only new Wario games, but also amiibo of Ashley and co.

That's because no one actually cares about Daisy outside of a vocal minority. Even Pauline lovers don't bitch about it as much as you do.

Source.
>new Wario games
More WarioWare, hooray.

These games have been shit since the original Gameboy one. Who in the hell keeps buying these things?

Low budget and low risk.
Chances are they only need to sell a few thousand to make bank.

>Giving away NES games if you have Amiibos
>Full NES games at that.
They just barely give you time restricted save states of NES roms with Amiibo Tap which are unlocked randomly instead of the series the Amiibo is, and you expect them to give out full roms? When they're selling NES roms for five fucking dollars? Are you insane?
