Ladies and gentlemen of the Mario Wiki Forums Mario Boards, we hear many complaints about how Nintendo is either making its games more and more generic or overly simplifying them; the most recent title to bear the brunt of criticism is the brand-new NSMB2. So, as the faithful fans of the series, let's collaboratively design our own game. I declare myself captain (sorry), but we'll have those who sign on to be artists and level designers, as well as the board members themselves, who may vote by either this poll above or by posting. We won't send it to Nintendo or anything (they never accept this stuff), but we will, when/if it is completed, marvel at what the minds of the Mario Boards can do. My first question: What genre of Mario game should we build?

We would design levels, have "official" art, and maybe have a storyline.
 
I'm learning how to programming and desgining video games at school this year, I can help make your fan game
 
I was actually thinking just of design and art, not making the game itself. Though that could be what we do at the end.
 
Making game is better than design and have downloads for PC and Mac

Also I have greatest idea, mix with 2D and 3D, have 2D stages and 3D stages, mix them together, half of stage is 2D and 3D, in turns

Like, Luigi enter the 3D world, then enter certain switches or pipe to enter another level but it is 2D, same as Super Paper Mario but with no flipping

Also one more thing, Luigi can "time travel" to enter SMB, SMB2, SMB3, SMW, SM64, SMS, SMG1/2 styled level and Mario space stuff with gravity is hard to program but I could do it. Also we can make 2D Mario games to be 3D and 3D Mario games to be 2D, Super Mario 64 can have levels to be 2D and SMW levels can be 3D. In certain area, not whole level.

4th edit, I forgot about RPG, we can add it to that too
 
I'm a little confused. Are you planning on making this a playable fan game?
 
collab in reggie for everyone that has homebrew channel

please because i suck at game maker
 
Um no, not Reggie. I want a far more diverse and innovative outline, not a NSMBW hack. This is about concept, art, and design, not necessarily an actual game.
