Lol this one I wasn't even there for. RIP.
Makes me wonder if I should have made it this early.

Seems like people forgot this place existed..

I'm still hyped for Mario and hyped for this sports game.

Woah costumes confirmed?
Lookin' fresh.

Oh hey, we still trying? Cool.

Anyone play Puzzle & Dragons Mario? It is a lot of fun collecting shit to upgrade your Goombas into Giant Paragoobas and what not.

>>171661663
Oh I haven't heard about this game in a while. Wasn't it like tetris but with Mario?

>>171661860
Well, not really. It is a match three game where you move pieces freely, but in a time limit. To set up combos and attack enemies.

It is a capsule game like Monster Strike or FE:Heroes, though the 3DS game with Mario has no microtransactions.

You build various teams of four, usually a leader like Mario or Fire Luigi and a bunch of enemies. You can upgrade and combine to make cool shit.

Woah that sounds pretty darn cool.
Always dreamed of my own army of Shyguys or Koopa Troopas

Why are the new Mario Tennis games considered so blah when the GameCube Mario Tennis was amazing? Are they genuinely worse? I haven't played them.

>>171663106
I enjoyed it a lot. All the fun systems of capsule games with none of the "wait until you can play again" or "buy thirty orbs now".

Never touched the other game in the two pack though.

>>171663483
As far as I know, Mario Tennis on 3DS and WiiU lacked fun modes. It went to traditional Tennis

I don't know anything about the latest 3DS one

>>171663483
I think even in the newest game, Mario Tennis Ultra Smash, they took out unique Character special shots for that dumb Mega Mushroom gimmick

Tfw when they're Nintendo themed threads that survive slowly for several days. We need more late night people.

>>171666092
It's just new thread era. Mario fans don't even know this thread is here.
Keep persisting, advertise a lot when Mario Kart 8D comes out, keep a tourney/community code in the OP when it does
it'll build up

Although we're probably not autistic enough to keep up with Sonic and we also don't have waifus like fire emblem
no offense by that stuff, i love sonic and fire emblem

>>171666342
Yeah you aren't wrong, but another thing is that the Sonic general had a ton of stuff happen to get them that much traction. I think "The Ride" was them and the archie comic illustrator going through all comics start to finish. Which picked up alot of Sonic fans to their board.

I haven't a clue how we'll pick up the plumber fans...this series consistency is solid. And not many fans have seen many Mario comics.

But yeah in all honesty we're still starting out..this 1st thread had like 25+ people so that was pretty good.

Road to Smash 5 lingers near.

>>171668748
I'd say in another 3-4 years we'll get something. Sakurai isn't working on the game anymore, so no more influx of Fire Emblem characters.

Also I wonder how the mechanics will play like...

>>171672090
It is just so sad. They legit used to be great titles.

I'm gonna try this new one, but I worry. More sports means less depth in each game.

>>171671006
I really don't know what went through their heads. Most underwhelming Sports game from Mario by far.

I don't know what that says about Warioware. Twisted and the original were so good though.

He is so stylish. I wonder what Shy Guys think of him.

I love that Galoombas become distinct from Goombas.

>>171702461
They might think "Man I need to hit the gym".

You'd think galoombas were weak and pudgy, but they are so much more durable then their cousins for some reason.

What do you think of these guys? They are pretty ubiquitous.

>>171706587
Goombas but more coordinated

>>171706587
Biddy Bugs, even when they are only several years old they're are still used often. I think they appeared first at Mario 3d land.

They're pretty much stepping tools. The new koopas.

>>171706587
>>171707219
Dumb question, but what genuinely new enemies were introduced in the last 5 years that stuck around? I imagine a lot more than I think. Whenever new Mario games come out, the spinoffs latch onto new characters.

>>171706458
They renamed the unsquishable Mario World goombas.

>>171709306
Hmm can't really say since there wasn't alot of new Mario content being released in that time span and 5 years aint that much time to tell if something stuck around.

Unless you just mean things that are obscure but do get appearances. Like Broozer and The Bully getting showcases in Paper Jam.

I guess I underestimated how small a time frame 5 years is. I meant like, this guy. Though I've not seen him in anything outside of his game.

>>171711215
One thing that I like about Mario is there really isn't any pattern to their enemies, if they need an enemy to do something for a level or a game, they'll invent it wholecloth to fit that niche perfectly.

And then later, they may or may not become staples, far removed from their origin. It creates this weird world full of nonsense charm.

Like, you can see this guy was to be like Thwomp but not, so they did exactly that.

Shit like Swoopers exist because they needed something that Swooped. Why is there a football guy on Dinosaur Island or whatever? Well, so you have an enemy that doesn't die to one jump and kind of knocks you around. Duh. So, there ya go, Chargin' Chuck.

If you were some sort of heathen who hasn't played through SMB all the way through before, what version would you recommend playing?

>>171714472
I think the Super Mario All Star's one is a great place to start.

>>171714472
I personally don't like the artstyle or OST of the Super Mario All-Stars versions of the games and go with the NES version on the Wii Virtual Console, but you can probably just play any version you want. Don't take world warp pipes faggot, just collect 1-ups and power through the levels and it's not bad.

I'm gonna have to git gud. It is so sad, but I was always trash at the original.

Thanks for the advice. I got a cart for All-Stars, so I can play it on the SNES.

Why is Mario Sports Superstars so sterile? Even Golf's worse than World Tour, which is already on the 3DS to begin with.
>no customization despite it being a staple for handheld Mario Golfs, not even Miis
>no items
>all courses are 9 holes
>only 4 courses when WT has 10 18 hole courses and the entirety of Golf 64 as DLC
>no Toad, Kamek, Paratroopa, Toadette or Nabbit when the first three are available as characters in other sports

>>171721079
I guess maybe that's how these sport packs goes

It has multiple sports, but less content/quality compared to an individual release

>>171721079
Dang why must all the recent sports games from Nintendo be so downsized and bland..

>>171721324

I wonder how often Jr. has to get the big pot of voodoo to get Bowser's flesh to grow back. He falls into lava a lot.

>>171726636
I wish Nintendo went further into that.
I'm just gonna go with Magikoopa and their magical healing rainbows do wonders for bowser. Also that Bowser seems to be immune to lava at points.

We're not dying until Friday! I want to play Mario Sports Superstars will you guys, even if it's a huge pile of shit.

>>171727990
You are a faithful one, anon.

Does anyone know if MSS has region locked online with friends?

>>171729816
Not sure, but I downloaded a European .cia since that's the only version that's out for now. Game wouldn't let me go online, since it constantly asked for me to agree with the online terms of service, even though I already accepted.
The same thing would happen if I were to download the American or European version of Golf World Tour instead of the Japanese one, but that game's region free. So it could be possible that Sports Superstars is also region free.

Alright let me ask a question that I have been seriously thinking about for the past couple days. I have Mario Kart 8 already for Wii U. I have not purchased any of the DLC. Should I sell it and use the money to pay for Mario Kart 8 Deluxe, or should I just wait for Mario Kart 9?

>>171735097
Well, Mk8 hype died long ago, and Mario Kart 9 aint happening anytime soon due to dlc (like Smash in a way with Smash 5)
So yeah you should go for deluxe, high chances of everyone in this thread playing it with each other.
But I'm pretty sure Mario Kart 8 Deluxe is only for the Switch though, so you should research that before you make your choice.

>>171735296
I'm going to get the Switch very soon, so that isn't an issue for me. I suppose you are right in saying Mario Kart 9 is not coming for a while. I'll just sell MK8 and buy Deluxe then. Thank you for helping me decide anon!

Dang it I need some shut eye, here's some bump art for the road, hopefully to keep this up until people wake up.

We are slowly but surely approaching death. But we also approach new life in the form of Mario Sports Superstars and Mario Kart 8 Deluxe. I wonder if we can hold out.

Please live.

So, the Koopalings or Koopa Kids or whatever, they're officially back.

Do they do anything?

>>171745184
What do you mean? They've been back for a while.

>>171745630
True. But do they have personalities yet? Or are they in nonspeaking roles only?

>>171745820
Oh, yeah they have personalities. You can see their personalities in the RPGs, mainly Mario & Luigi: Paper Jam and Paper Mario: Color Splash.

Oh good. I remember in M&L Superstar Saga, they just appeared out of nowhere and didn't saw shit.

It was kind of creepy in hindsight. Anyway, call dibs on your favorite Koopaling.

Can someone who knows anything about music tell me what songs, genres and styles Mario music is aping?

I mean the normal Mario music, not like ghost houses. Upbeat shit with horns.
