post any random Mario thought on your mind

Seriously, I sorta get what Nintendo said about how that there are two turn-based, traditional JRPGs that feel a bit redundant; people without turn-based JRPGs as their cup of tea would be appealed by neither of them. It would be much more interesting if we saw another take of a Mario RPG that doesn't fall under the traditional, turn-based type, and a western-styled RPG for a Mario game would be one of them. Have a Mario looter game. Or an action RPG. Mario + Rabbids felt fresh and new. We can have a new take on the Mario series.

as much as i would kinda be interested in a new gameplay idea personally, i honestly do think that the safest move for n right now is to keep the classic m&l and pm gameplay formulas as they are: m&l because alphadream going means we're unsure so it would just be reassuring to fans to see that it's how they've always loved it (and they don't seem to want it to change) and pm finally get it back after 16 years, which most fans have always wanted for that time
 
Just have a merger of Paper Mario and Mario & Luigi worlds. Paper Jam can be an unwitting reboot of the two franchises. Then they can proceed being some weird hybrid. Or just reboot Mario & Luigi and have indie developers create the new Paper Mario games, as we've seen if Nintendo themselves are really allergic to pre-SPM Paper Mario. Indies are capable of picking up where Nintendo left off like Bug Fables or Under Hero, but if Nintendo gives other indies resources for a Paper Mario game, they have the Mario IP to work with, which the branding itself will attract the Mario fans.

I would like to see that fill in the vacuum left by the Mario & Luigi series.

Diablo, Super Mario bros edition.

Well maybe not Diablo because screw Blizzard but get them torchlight peeps to work on it.
 
I would absolutely adore a Mario game in the style of Diablo/Torchlight.

yeah but then the indie pms might lack the "nintendo polish." i mean i'd be up for nintendo letting fans make fangames as long as those games are distinct from official titles and aren't going to be comprimising their profits significantly, but i want the official paper mario series to continue. all that needs to happen is for nintendo and intelligent systems to listen to what fans have wanted for 16 years: bring back ttyd's formula
