This will be a cool one. Wonder is going to be a standout game this year. That and Super Mario RPG.

 

[sloppyjoe_gamer]

Debating if i want to avoid this and go into the game fresh......

 

[Krathoon]

I just checked to make sure I had my orders of Wonder and RPG at Walmart.

Wonder comes out in October and RPG comes out in November.

here we go

lol... merging with a castle.

 

[Interfectum]

Nabbit!!

 

[VN1X]

BOWSER IS CASTLE

 

[VN1X]

This game is the perfect Litmus test to expose those who cant see the massive improvements in visuals and art style compared to the Wii U era of 2D Mario games.

 

[Maestr0]

Smooth Mc Groove, is that you ?

 

[Interfectum]

I love how this game looks. The expressions are great.

 

[VN1X]

Those Hoppycats are fantastic lol. Love how they sneakily look at the player in order to instantly jump as well.

 

[Interfectum]

Damn these power-ups look great. Feels a little like Kirby.

 

[StueyDuck]

im almost definitely going to get this... but part of me still wants an odyssey 2

 

[Mr Hyde]

Pre-ordering right now. Game looks ace. 2D Mario is way better than 3D.

 

[VN1X]

What's with the "NOOOO" spam in the youtube chat?

 

[amigastar]

Pre-ordering right now. Game looks ace. 2D Mario is way better than 3D.

Maybe in the old days, nowadays 2D Mario doesn't do it for me unfortunately.

 

[ShadyAcshuns]

Badges!

 

[Interfectum]

Dude the badges... wow.

 

[Hardensoul]

Game Genie Mario!!

It’s so different from other 2D Mario’s! I’m interested!!

 

[Draugoth]

Yeha, this game is going to be 10's all across the board

 

[acm2000]

my god i hate the art style so much and i honestly cant put my finger on as to why

 

[acidagfc]

Those flower voiceline are so obnoxiously condescending. 'Yay, you did the obvious thing, congrats!'

The game looks great, I just hope I can turn off voicing.

 

[Punished Miku]

I already pre-ordered this and Mario RPG with a digital voucher.

 

[Interfectum]

I already pre-ordered but I'm so hyped I need to pre-order again.

 

[Krathoon]

Yoshi riding a Yoshi.

 

[Interfectum]

Holy shit live player shadows... LOL Dark Souls.

 

[VN1X]

DARK TOADS

I am hoping to the Mushroom Kingdom gods that next Nintendo console will launch with another flagship 3d Mario game. Oddysey was phenomenal. It has been over 6 years since then. Will be 7 in 2024.

 

[KellyNole]

Looks great. Hope they have a challenges like NSMB Wii U.

 

[ShadyAcshuns]

I must have that Mario Red Edition OLED!

 

[jshackles]

A new Nintendo Switch!

OLED Model Red Mario Edition

 

[Hardensoul]

Looks good!

 

[Saber]

This game looks absurdly interesting and charming. I had my doubts before, but now I'm certain it does look freaking awesome. It feels like a huge jump from later versions, just like Rayman did in the past.

i feel with odyssey they were so close and an iteration on the formula would have put them into galaxy territory of all time greatest game. They usually do 3d then 2d then 3d so i don't think your guess of it being on their next console is all that far off.

I will say this + Sonic, 2d platforming is gonna have a good year.

 

[Krathoon]

This is a major evolution for Mario. Lots of new stuff. Still weird that they took the drug trip angle.

 

[Tarin02543]

Just needs bonfires

 

[daclynk]

Me right now.

 

[Emedan]

Looks sweet, but what a Nintendo thing to implement everything online but co-op

 

[Gambit2483]

Those badges looked awesome. That grapple badge was game changing!

 

[Krathoon]

I do believe we have a Miyamoto successor at Nintendo.

Lol when you think about it, SMB is about a guy who gets super powers by eating Amanita muscaria mushrooms.

 

[Punished Miku]

Comments were enough to tell me to just skip this Direct. Don't need to spoil any fun surprises.

 

[StueyDuck]

i will say going through it again, i think the trumpet flowers talking might get become annoying. i hope most of them are just like "hey"

 

[Hardensoul]

Yea, skip. Since I’m not big 2D Mario fan. It was enough to get me excited to play!

 

[Robb]

Game looks fantastic, day one for me for sure. The badge system sounds great.

Somewhat disappointed in the online functionality. It’s a neat idea but looks very ‘cluttered’ when playing to me. Not sure I want random people just messing around in the background.

That new Switch looks sweet though, just sucks it’s coming out this late.
