    What made the original Mario games fun.

    I think the OP really disregards how much popular media from that time especially has really strange premises. Dragon Ball is a very loose adaptation of Journey to the West about a monkey boy who likes to get stronger through fighting tournaments who ends up fighting a demon who killed his best...

    New Super Mario Bros. U Deluxe - Switch Port Rumors

    This is a bit of an aside, but I never really got the point of adding the triple jump in the NSMB games, as I can't recall a single instance in any of the four games where it is ever useful to use. You'd think maybe some of the harder secret exits or an interesting secret room may have required...

    New Super Mario Bros. U Deluxe - Switch Port Rumors

    There was nothing in my post that indicated I have any strong dislike for the NSMB games. It is a fact that they are quite uncreative, and at this point the NSMB series is over 12 years old. It's time for something new. People already pile on the NSMB games, and after Odyssey blew everyone's...

    New Super Mario Bros. U Deluxe - Switch Port Rumors

    I can only hope that this is meant to hold us while they're hard at work creating a completely new incarnation of 2D Mario that has nothing to do with NSMB. The bar for Mario has been lifted hugely once again after Odyssey, and it's time to show that 2D Mario isn't creatively bankrupt.

    Super Mario Galaxy 1 or 2

    I said myself as well I don't like Galaxy 2 as much as the first. I didn't realize this was that widespread an opinion I guess.

    Super Mario Galaxy 1 or 2

    Can you elaborate? I usually don't hear opinions of 2 that are this negative so I'm interested now.

    Super Mario Galaxy 1 or 2

    I've always preferred the first Galaxy game to the second. I think it may have something to do with how similar 2 is to the first, but I remember not being very impressed with 2. Galaxy 2 also in my opinion greatly lacks the weird atmosphere of the original. I always remember such a mysterious...

    The Aesthetic of Super Mario Land

    Super Mario Land, released 1989 for the Game Boy is by far one of the most overlooked in the entire series which is a pity since it is absolutely fascinating in my opinion when it comes to presentation and atmosphere. Unlike just about every other 2D platformer core Mario game, there is no...

    The official "Hi, I'm new here!" thread

    Thanks dudes! Yeah I have quite a fondness for Animals of Farthing Wood, the feeling's mutual to someone knowing of it.

    The official "Hi, I'm new here!" thread

    Hiya, I'm ShroomZed. If any of you are on Sonic Stadium Forums you would know me from there. Been a Mario fan for a quite long time. Favourite game would either be SMB3 or SMW. Favourite enemy is Bullet Bill and favourite character is Wario at this time being. I draw a lot and aspire to be a...
