What games do you have for your 3DS?

[powerrave]

And who are you to say that to me? Fan girl.

There are a lot of Mario games, but 3D Land is probably one of the best. Hell, I like it more than Mario 64.

And Luigi's Mansion, it's like what the Ghost Busters game should have been.

[powerrave]

That's great... But I have no interest at all.

Ah, 3D Land's a really good one. Can't believe I hadn't checked it out until fairly recently actually- the Statue Tanuki costume's fantastic.

It was great in Super Mario 3 as well.

Aye. Too bad they were so rare there, though.

Especially not the overdone Mario stuff.

Mario has a lot of games, yes.. but they have different types of games in the Mario franchise and it has been around for 30 years.

To be honest I sort of agree with Powerrave here, Nintendo does kind of need to stop with this New Super Mario Bros stuff and make more varied titles, seeing as about half of their stuff is practically the same game, both mechanically and thematically, only with some different levels (which are still tired) and some different bosses (which appeared in the old games so they aren't really "New" either). Time is better spent on properly getting their spin off franchises or, I dunno, METROID going, instead of producing quite so many identikit titles. Stuff like Super Mario 3D land is good, likewise with the Mario And Luigi thing they're working on atm, so more of that would be preferable to yet another 2D platformer that doesn't quite match the quality of their old ones.

This I can agree with. As much as I liked NSMB and that it was a good idea at first, the novelty's kind of worn thin now. It's had its time, so I think Metroid and The Legend of Zelda deserve a bit more of a focus, now.

They make 1 New Super Mario Bros. game per console. It's not like Call of Duty where they make the same game every year.

I agree with you two. IMO Nintendo needs to give the Mario franchise a complete year off and focus on giving its other and old franchises such as Earthbound, Metroid, Kirby, Kid Icarus, F-Zero and few others more attention otherwise the entire Mario franchise will be milked dry soon.

Oh and since we are on the topic of Mario, I LOL'd at Mario & Luigi Dream Team UK release date. Anyone who can guess why gets a picture of a cookie.

You realize that Nintendo is a large developer that's capable of working on various projects at a time, right?

The Mother series of games is usually made by Creatures Inc. (Pokemon) and HAL. Metroid has been made by Retro Studios (Donkey Kong Country Returns, Metroid Prime 1-3), Nintendo SPD 1 (Fusion, Zero Mission), NST (Metroid Prime Hunters, Mario vs. Donkey series, Wave Race), and Team Ninja (Other M). Kirby is almost always made by HAL. Kid Icarus just had a game on 3DS and is made by Sora (which is a small development group that is busy working on Smash Bros. for WiiU and 3DS with Namco-Bandai's Tekken team). The last two F-Zero games (AX, GX) were made by Sega.

Nintendo can deliver quality Mario games while still releasing games starring their many other popular characters.

Recently downloaded Mega Man 5 and The Legend of Zelda- Oracle of Seasons on the Virtual Console. Both are pretty awesome, beaten Star Man on the former and currently in the Second Dungeon for the latter.

[Chaosmancer]

And now I have Animal Crossing New Leaf, arrived yesterday. Pokemon X is on pre-order, and I may get Oracle of Ages/Seasons at some point.

I hate posts like that.
ALSO to be on topic I might get 3DS, but I'll probably just wait for a 3DS emulator. :P
