You must be referring to the fact that all the Mario games since 64 have been fruity nonsensical Japanese things (ie spraying water everywhere) rather than the fact that this new game looks exactly like the old ones.

Nothin' wrong with that. It looks/plays like the old Mario games, and adds in new elements that aren't just attempted rehashes from the 3D ones. The way I see it, it's finally taking Super Mario World forward and making the next great 2D Mario. Much in the samy way Sonic Rush did that with its 2D roots.

Yeah, that's what I meant to say. I must have stuttered. On the keyboard.
I wonder what other power-ups the game will have.

Whups, haha, don't I feel foolish.
Does this mean I'm gonna have to blow into the mic to power up the flying cape or draw the arc I want to throw my fireballs along?

As far as I can tell, the only actual DS functionality it's using is the second screen for numbers, progression and storing powerups. Everything else is just on one screen and mixes 2d with 3d with no extra gimmicks.

Not necessarily. They didn't fuck with Mario and Luigi at all, so you never know what they could have in store. Honestly, I can't see this as being anything but good.

He's just enthusiastic. He always was.
Well, that and he needs his fist up there to hit blocks.

Well considering he dies from touching turtles you can never be too sure.
See, I always assumed they bit him somehow, but on the Super Mario Brothers Super Show it depicted them punching him sometimes.
I guess that was less violent.

In Mario 64, doesn't Mario raise his right arm when he jumps (just a single jump)?
If you notice, when Mario turns left, he still raises his right arm up when he jumps.
It's a 3d model and an attempt at seeming "more realistic" I guess. :/

I will be buying one for this, plus the numerous other games. It looks so pretty now.

I haven't heard of any kind of new DS coming out. Got a link or something?

That is pretty sexy. The DS right now is small enough for me, though, so I doubt I'll be trading it in.

I don't really like the Cobalt.
However, there's no Japanese release date yet, so that date is VERY likely to change.

The official release date in Japan is "May," so take that as you will. It's also keeping the name "New Super Mario Bros." ... I really hope they change that for the US release. Cobalt Katze fucked around with this message on 02-16-2006 at 10:40 AM.
