Da Cap'n 2099 Posted January 13, 2017 Share Posted January 13, 2017 Nice to see Nintendo branching out and putting Mario in a survival horror game. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Maldron Posted January 14, 2017 Share Posted January 14, 2017 It's not survival horror until Bowser gives Mario lice. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

C_U_SPACECOWBOY Posted January 15, 2017 Share Posted January 15, 2017 I never really thought of Mario as originating parkour in videogames, but puttting Mario in an urban enviroment with his Mario 64 moveset and thats exactly what he did!!

Little Nemo McFly Posted January 16, 2017 Share Posted January 16, 2017 Sweet - classic moves. I was hoping Mario would turn a corner and we'd get to see this - It'd be awesome if there's an easter egg of Captain Lou's face somewhere - like Mario used to look human...before 'he found the secret warp zone, while workin' on the drain' and learned that 'Mushroom Land needed savin.'

Mr. Hakujin Posted January 16, 2017 Share Posted January 16, 2017 ...It'd be awesome if there's an easter egg of Captain Lou's face somewhere - like Mario used to look human...before 'he found the secret warp zone, while workin' on the drain' and learned that 'Mushroom Land needed savin.' That would be sweet. Or maybe a Capt. Lou powerup where Mario gets earrings and a beard braided and tied off with rubber bands. Also... Seeing this reminds me I never finished Mario Galaxy 2 on the Wii. I may have to dust that console off and give it a go. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Little Nemo McFly Posted June 13, 2017 Share Posted June 13, 2017 (edited) Just when I think Nintendo couldn't possibly be any dumber - they go and remind me of stuff like this... Edited June 13, 2017 by Little Nemo McFly Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Iambaytor Posted June 13, 2017 Share Posted June 13, 2017 I'm really excited but I'm also concerned, it's nice to see Nintendo actually try to do something interesting with Mario for the first time since Super Mario Galaxy 2 and he hat mechanic seems neat. But... I'm getting a real strong Sonic Adventure vibe off of this and even though it's totally unfair to hold that against it, I do. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Little Nemo McFly Posted June 15, 2017 Share Posted June 15, 2017 Eh. Gives me a 'Skylanders' vibe more than anything. What I would really love - would be a Mario Amiibo w/ that hat... Word on the street is that there, indeed - will be local coop. Of all the stuff I've seen - it's Frog Mario, that I can't wait to play as.

The NZA Posted June 17, 2017 Author Share Posted June 17, 2017 Sonic Adventure is a timeless gem it really was amazing for its time, but a lot of neat things it did were done better not too much long after - level design was woefully inconsistent, the numerous characters bogged it down, etc. i love it but it doesn't hold up great Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Little Nemo McFly Posted November 1, 2017 Share Posted November 1, 2017 I haven't played yet - staying clear of reviews n' spoilers. I might be getting a Switch next month - my gf is writhing every week that goes by w/out Splatoon 2. Honestly, I can wait - right now it's just Odyssee for me...but ho-damn. Anybody who got it - worth the hype? Howz it lookin'? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Keth Posted November 2, 2017 Share Posted November 2, 2017 This just had one of the best last levels in a Mario game ever. So much fun! The only part I felt was underwhelming was the music actually. I was looking forward to some more catchy tunes, and while it does have a couple (mainly in the form of the actual songs with lyrics) it is a quiter game and the music feels more generic. Thats a minor gripe though. The game is excellent otherwise! Plus there is a fun photo mode and Im a sucker for that. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Little Nemo McFly Posted November 3, 2017 Share Posted November 3, 2017 Already beaten?! Damn - how long did that take you? Are you going to go for all the stars? Or - whatever it is they got? Do you go for that 100% stuff? Are those 'collectible' / 'unlockable' / 'challenges' stuff - stuff you leave to pick at throughout the years?

Keth Posted November 4, 2017 Share Posted November 4, 2017 It has a TON of shit to do. I clocked in at maybe 12 hours though. Thats just me running through, doing the minimum. There is a post game though. It is chock full of content. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Little Nemo McFly Posted November 6, 2017 Share Posted November 6, 2017 I'm 4 hours in - "It looks...marvelous - it really does." That pack-in joy-con 'gamepad' thingie that's like, a make-shift controller...the joysticks are soooo tiny! The L / R, LB / RB are so damn close to each other - and tiny! Awkward as hell to do those sprinting - crouch jumps. It just never felt comfortable. After the beat the Dino Island tutorial place - I plugged in the Gamecube controller - wooorld of difference. Super tight controls - bigger joystick range - just changed the gameplay entirely, for me. You miss out on the rumble feature and motion controls - but I can play w/out that 'homing hat' and 'spin hat-attack'. You're basically committing to missing sum 'moons' / 'collectibles' the first time around - but Mario w/ the Gamecube controller is totally worth it. I already missed out on this one 'secret moon' - cuz it required me to 'feel' n' follow the rumble - so I once I beat the game, I'm gonna hafta replay w/ the pack-in controller if I ever hope to go for 100%. A Pro Controller feels mandatory...but, eventually. Shit ain't cheap! Amiibo unlock outfits! Playing as 'ol skoo' Mario. So far, the game is a helluva return to form. But, 3 / 10. Joy-con controller / gamepad was initially weird. Wake up, Nintendo! LOL - I can't wait to really open the game up. Gonna take my time w/ this.
