Should there be a Direct sequel to Super Mario Bros USA?

Many elements from Panic at the Doki Doki have made appearances in modern Mario games but outside of remakes, the exact style of gameplay and that gameplay alone has not had an entire game based upon it, so that being said, should there be another game that plays like SMB2/USA should be made? I think a cool thing is adding more characters and seeing how they can be made unique, I think it shouldn't have the same exact setting however
 
I agree completely, especially about not having the same setting. Maybe Bowser finds out about Wart and teams up with him somehow. Throw Tatanga into the mix too for good measure.
 
Absolutely. The second game is such a fresh departure from the other series games with its re-enterable rooms, lack of a time limit, needing throw crap at enemies to kill them, finding power-ups being Mushrooms in Subon with doors, focus on vertical platforming, and its unique way of killing bosses makes me really want a revisit with its gameplay style. Would be nice to shake it up after the flood of New Super Mario Bros. games.
 
id be up for it! and the reverse too, subcon looks pretty interesting so id just love another game featuring that setting (wouldnt be the same without a lot of the same mechanics still though)
 
Well Birdo stays, the core concept of multiple playable characters also came from there. If NIntendo is willing to use it as referenes, I do think they can do more.

I think if Bowser isn't going to team up with other currently active villains like Wario, KRool, King Boo and King Bob-omb, the idea of bringing back Wart to be Bowser's companion wouldn't be liked by NIntendo. Likely Bowser would still work on his own even if some past villains return.

And if NIntendo isn't willing to have someone else beside Bowserbe the villain in Super Mario titles, it's more likely for Wart to have a different role in new games.
 
I would love a game of SMB2's formula in a future game. Unfortunately, SMB2 is the "black sheep" of the Mario NES saga.
 
SMB2 is probably my fave of the NES Mario games, so hell yeah I think there should be a sequel/spiritual successor to it.

And honestly, I know we're all talking about 2D games here, but I'm still disappointed that SMB3DW didn't really take anything from SMB2 even though it had all the same playable characters.
