Gaming New Super Mario Bros. 2 - What do YOU want to see?

[Deltaechoe]

You know, I'm the kind of gamer that nintendo loves, cuz I know I'm going to buy this game just because it's a super mario game and I can play those all day long. Time to get my speedrunning gamer gloves back on

I think this is the most disappointing Nintendo game ever!
It's a lazy job, a Ctrl c Ctrl v game!
A mercenary move by Nintendo!
More of the same!

It looks like they spent all the time working on NSMBU and at the very ending decided to make this game to look like they care about 3DS!

Um...why do you say that? Not only does it have new levels and enemies, but it also puts emphasis on an omnipresent yet often overlooked aspect of Mario. From what they showed, the games are pretty unique, I certainly wouldn't call this a "Copy and Paste", even with the little information that's been released.

New Super Mario Bros U looks really good!
What I'm disappointed is with NSMB2!
3D effect is terrible! (worst 3D effect in all cartridge games)
The game looks pretty much the same compared to NSMBDS!
The graphics are terrible and misuse the 3DS potential!
The game lacks originality!
Where is Yoshi?
Where are the new power-ups?
Where are the NSMB Wii power-ups?

I'm tremendously disappointed and this really looks a Ctrl c Ctrl v game!

There are much more to show about this game, but what was already shown, was a terrible way!
I'm hoping that they show something that change drastically my opinion!

Game is still in development.

3D effect is terrible! (worst 3D effect in all cartridge games) Early E3 Trailer
The game looks pretty much the same compared to NSMBDS! lolnope
The graphics are terrible and misuse the 3DS potential! Early E3 trailer
The game lacks originality! lol
Where is Yoshi? If it's there (and I wouldn't be surprised if it wasn't, since Yoshi debuted in the Wii version), they probably didn't show it because it's an early E3 trailer
Where are the new power-ups? This is an early E3 trailer that was trying to emphasize the new focus of the game, chances are they didn't have time to squeeze them in or just didn't want to/couldn't.
Where are the NSMB Wii power-ups? You do realize that this is not only an early E3 trailer that showed very little, but also a sequel to the DS version, right? Why would they have Wii power-ups?

Note that I wrote these in backwards order.

You do realize that there are left only two or three months to the release of the game, don't you?!

The game will be not much different from what we saw, unless it get delayed,
what in my opinion should be considered, like what happened to Rayaman Origins on 3DS.

I think you're the only one who does not see the huge similarity with the DS version!
Yoshi would make things a little better!
Why can't the put Wii power ups on NSMB2?
All these gold things, and the focus on it, look to me a attempt to say to the public that this is different than NSMBDS.

Let's wait until Nintendo software showcase, but i guess we won't have much more than this!

Where's your source? Games change, and it wouldn't be the first time a game was shown at E3 and the final product had far more content than the E3 trailer. Not even close to the first time.

Be reasonable, there is no way they can do that with just few time!
There may be more content or power ups, but if it is true, they will be showed at this software showcase,
if don't, forget about that, it will be that piece of crap we already saw!

 

[Deleted member 194275]

oh god! HUGE quotes, no spoiler tags, pointless discussion.

The fact is "NEW Super Mario Bros" is a style of game, every "NEW Super Mario Bros" will be the same way. It is just like Final Fantasy Tactics, is a kind of franchise inside the franchise (like mario kart, like mario galaxy 1 and 2).

I fell comfortable with this game on eShop, but I cannot agree to this game as a full retail game.

Dude, the game comes out in less than 3 months... stuff might change, but not that much. And I've yet to see a 3D trailer on 3DS that looked "less" 3D than the actual game. If this game were coming out in November (a la SM3DL), then I'd find it believable that things would drastically change. But for a game coming out in 2 and a half months? Don't kid yourself.

At any rate, I don't think the game is a complete copypasta (the gold feature is really cool), but it doesn't seem anywhere NEAR as new as it should be. And you've seen the graphics on SM3DL... 2D movement or not, there's no reason this game can't look at least as good, and it just flat-out doesn't.

Yes, it will be that 2 minute trailer of presenting the new focus, and can't possibly be anything else, disregarding the stuff they said prior to the showing of the trailer.

Man, I hope Mini yoshi isn't in this version. I mean, I was going to grab the WiiU version for my little bro and me to play but... mini yoshi... so damn cheap.... uuuggghh... I guess ill grab this one instead if it doesn't have that which I doubt.

What do you have against Baby Yoshi? He was one of my most memorable things about SMW, and he only lasts a couple seconds before it grows (after eating a certain amount). In fact, it's less effective than Yoshi (unless you think Yoshi's cheap as well).

I know. But does he REALLY need to fire bubbles? Can he even eat enemies normally anymore? I mean, Yoshi is supposed to be Marios stead you know. I can see why he can eat enemies and blast fireballs and stuff. But Baby Yoshi being able to do this also defeats the point of even having a normal Yoshi. It comes off more like Nintendo is flipping anyone who said NSMB should be based on World then actually trying to base it off World IMO. That and TBH I'm really sick of these NSMBs I mean it was cool on the DS the Wii was nice but also painfully easy (my lil bro beat half of it in 30 minutes, without my help...) IMO. But that's more of my personal grip with it.

Also (might as well stir up more shit while I'm here ) anyone who says the trailers 3D sucks. REMEMBER HOW 3DS VIDEOS WORK. They are pre-rendered so the 3D effect doesn't work how its designed to work with the actual game.

I take it you haven't played much of Super Mario World, have you?

No, I've played it all my life... it was the first game I ever played... I have a tradition of kicking bowsers ass on my SNES every year out of it... why would you even assume that...

Because Baby Yoshi functions pretty similarly, from what they've shown. As I said, you can't "choose" Baby Yoshi over Yoshi, it will no doubt become Yoshi, and there aren't that many of them.

REMEMBER HOW 3DS VIDEOS WORK. They are pre-rendered so the 3D effect doesn't work how its designed to work with the actual game.

Comparing 3D trailers of games I already own to the actual games (SM3DL and Kid Icarus Uprising, in particular), I literally see no difference. They look just as 3D to me as the actual games.

? Oh. You mean when he EATS A SHELL. Not automatically. Plus, we don't knoe how many there will be in this title. If its a low amount like 1 or 2 levels with him per world or he has to be unlocked like in SMW then I'm cool with it but it shouldn't be like every. 3 or 5 levels they stick me with one. The ORIGINAL I liked but these honestly seem cheap to me. Also, I'm not saying that you can choose one over the other, I'm saying that if I'm playing and I see Baby Yosho being able to fire bubbles that turn shit into coins, I'm going to avoid giving him enough to eat to grow into a bigger yoshi and to me it defeats the point of even having Yoshi it feels like they could have just made bubble Mario or something and called it a day.

Unless there was another trailer I missed, there's nothing in the trailer that insinuates that baby yoshi appears in every freaking level...

He grows after he eats enough. He uses his powers by eating. Yoshi does the same as the previous statement, and he also runs faster than Mario and allows Mario to use his abilities/makes use of Mario's abilities. Because of those three statements, he's effectively less...effective than Yoshi.

I really don't understand the disdain, here. There's no reason to avoid having him grow since...well, if you do, he won't do anything, you'd just be holding a useless Baby Yoshi.
