Not open for further replies.
Voted for the last option since (a) haven't played SMM2 because no Switch and (b) haven't played SMM because no Wii U. Even though I have played SMMfN3DS, that doesn't help because there were no amiibo costumes in that version, which is the closest (but not exactly) like the Master Sword. Anyways. If I did play SMM2, I would like the it, but wouldn't care what game style it was in.
 
Option 3. I like these things. But being exclusive to the SMB style not only makes it easier to look good, but also allows the devs to go all out on it, since it shouldn't require that much effort graphically, unlike if it were, say, in the NSMBU style.
 
Your Holiday poll is here!

Would you like to receive a Mario game for the holidays?
  1. If I receive a newer Mario game I would like it.
  2. I prefer receiving older Mario game than new ones.
  3. I prefer receiving another gift pertaining to the Mario franchise (plush, clothes, action figures, etc)
  4. I would be happy to receive a Mario game as a gift, however I would prefer a game from another franchise.
  5. I would be happy to receive a Mario game as a gift, however I would prefer a gift unassociated with video games.
  6. I would dislike receiving a Mario game as a gift.
  7. I do not care which gift I get.
  8. I do not celebrate Christmas.

Option 4 for me, I'll be more or less happy with a Mario game, but I'm currently craving for more Fire Emblem and Zelda right now...
 
I'm going to say that I certainly prefer other Mario merchandise, especially plush, than receiving a game, but it really ultimately depends on what Mario game it is. For this year, I'd be most content with a plush of a character I don't own, though I think the only characters I don't own from San-ei is Monty Mole and some unreleased ones. If it does mean I'll get the UFO catcher Baby Luigis, Mini Marios, or other rare plush however, I think I'd want those over, say, the next Mario Kart on Switch. Not to say that I wouldn't be happy with another Mario Kart on Switch though...but...I like my modded 8 Deluxe a lot.

I really have far too many games to play honestly. I typically just stick with a few. Hell I haven't even touched my last game I bought, Luigi's Mansion 3, since launch, since the games I stuck with I give far more attention to.
 
I do not celebrate Christmas. Even then, it's far less likely to receive video games mainly because video game culture is far less focused on Nintendo compared to the likes of PC and to a lesser extent, the Playstation.

Thank you for reading.

I would go for option 1. but I don't have a Switch yet so I'll take option 2.
 
I'd love a gift related to the Mario series, but I'm not expecting one (except possibly from the Secret Santa here). There's not any new games I'm particularly itching to get though, a physical copy of Paper Mario 64 or Super Mario RPG would make me happy (both of which I only own digitally). I definitely am not expecting either of those though, I haven't asked for them and they're above the usual price range of gifts I receive from my family. Some plushies/figures would be cool but again, I haven't asked for them as I'm typically content with the gift cards I usually get.

I can sort of empathise with you, but does this really matter? I'm doing my first playthrough of PM64 on the Wii U VC right now and the fact that I don't have a cartridge doesn't take anything away from the experience. Maybe the eShop could go down one day but I doubt that'll be anytime soon.
 
Oh I just one day want to have physical copies of all the Mario RPGs.

Actually that reminds me I also no longer have physical copies of M&L:SSS+BM or BIS+BJJ because I stupidly gave them to a friend in hopes of exposing them to the series, but we don't talk anymore. I have them digitally too though.
