I guess Nintendo thinks SMG is too hard for 5 year olds ?
Better stick to 2D to keep the kids happy ?

MEH.

Enough Mario. Give me my Metroid.
That said, a SMG would be way better than this overmilked NSMBS or that SM3DW thing that for me doesn't qualify as a proper console Mario game. (not that it is bad, but... erm... meh)
I don't like the idea of SM3DW either. I would rather have a SM64 sequel. And don't get me started on the NSMB series. :glare:

Metroid sucks, Mario FTW.
Go play your New Super Mario Bullshits that are very real while I play my imaginary new Metroid, please?

Also regarding sales figures on oversimplified games, every time I read companies with lack of perspective stating that they can for the moment get more profit for producing and selling cheap games for the mostly fad-driven casual masses I start hoping the massive smartphone market finally makes they go bankrupt and cheap horrible ultra-profitable hits like flappy birds populate those devices forever, because that is the future they are striving for.

So I'm not allowed to like one series over another? Literally my whole post was "Metroid sucks, Mario FTW". That's all I said.
Its fine to prefer one but saying metroid sucks is ridiculous. We get a new mario game every year but we havent seen metroid in 5.

I wasn't talking about that at all. I was just saying I prefer mario games over metroid games. "Metroid sucks" /= "Mario games aren't released enough" or something to that effect. Am I not allowed to hate on something because it isn't released as often as what I like?
You are allowed to a certain point to continue the discussion from your EOF thread in other threads, but be warned if you abuse this "right" your posts will start being removed because of OT and later you will be warned for being obnoxious.

I'd love a new Metroid game, as long as it's not like Other M and is a proper Metroid game. As for SMG3, I'm not heartbroken. I enjoyed the first two well enough, but I've never been that big on Mario and I still think Sunshine was the best one out of the 3D Mario games.

Just give me another Mario 64/ Mario Sunshine. SMG just felt to driven away although did create a new Mario experience that however did not suit me.

As long as 3 is the last or does something incredible to the Galaxy series, I am completely fine with this.

Sunshine will always be my definitive 3D Mario platformer; I seriously love that game to death. I'm not a huge, diehard fan for the Galaxy series, but I'll take Galaxy 3 over another redundant 3D Land/3D World/NSMB any day.

I agree. I'm so tired of the nsmb engine being used since 2006.

This is depressing. Super Mario Galaxy Series is the best IMO.
I think Ninty doesn't like it because SMG isn't good on N3DS and maybe not the new NX.

I think Ninty is deluded for the profits it sees in producing the cheap NSMB series that sell like hotcakes all while stupidly handling shovels to opportunist flappy birds that dig its grave.

Galaxy is so much more varied and fun than NSMB, I certainly hope we'll see more of them soon, or better yet another open world 3D mario. It doesn't make sense for Nintendo though, when NSMB is much cheaper to make and sells better. I wonder why they only mentioned NSMB Wii, and not the newest entry in the series. Maybe because NSMB sales dropped after NSMB Wii, since they started getting repetitive after that.

"He's suggesting that it might take the release of newer hardware before the 3D titles are back on the cards, partly because the improved tech will allow them to do even more interesting things with the games."
Sounds like the next home console (NX?) will have an entirely new 3D mario, that will be interesting to see.
