Nintendo Secures Trademarks For Dr. Mario World And Dr. Mario

Dr. Mario Battle Royale when Nintendo?

@Yoshinator Excitebike99 comes first

I know Nintendo has to stay relevant and have games published for phones, but it feels like competition against their consoles. Let’s get a Nintendo Phone created.

@JohnBlackstar I would buy a Nintendo phone if they made that the actual Switch Mini.

@ReaderRagfihs he's a quack.

If this means Dr. Mario getting a game on Switch, here's hoping for the four-player mode from 64 to return. A fair amount of Switch games have been trying to get the system to focus on the multiplayer aspect (to my knowledge) thanks to the Joy-Cons.

Dr. Mario 99 confirmed.

Would like to see Dr Mario come to The eshop!

Don’t stop with the Doc! Bring more puzzle games (to phones and Switch)!

@Tandy255
I see you've got the same one in mind as me, being on the puzzle attack/league games!

And dr. Mario coupled with mario kart might make my mother buy a switch actually! (She's way better at them than me too!)

Damn, i thought this was going to be a switch title.

This isn't news. It would be news if the topic was "Nintendo lets Dr Mario trademark expire".

@StephenYap3 how did your request for a four player mode get "disliked?" is there a way on here to see whose liking or disliking what? Sure seems like a system that advocates trolls.

Tetris works well on mobile, Dr. Mario would be a welcome addition

@sixrings You'll find negativity everywhere on every post online. It often says more about the happiness level of the downvoter than it does about you, as it's quicker for them to simply dislike something than it is to offer an idea of how to improve upon it

@Gravitron This would be PURE BONKERS, awesome fun!

I can see a Dr. Mario game on Switch, I for one hope it's not so multiplayer oriented as other games, since I don't have people over. Ever. But I also can see its formula can't be tweaked any more, as the latest releases proved. So... I'm afraid it would be a minor game, of course digital only.

@sixrings @StephenYap3 Agreed! Tetris 99 is fun, but I had a lot of fun with 4 player Dr. Mario and 4 player Tetris on the 64.

And non-competive modes are nice so that newbies can play at their own pace and not get slammed by better players.

I love Tetris 99 but I sure would love some 4 player local competitive Tetris as well. That goes for the Dr Mario too.

@sixrings Don't know. I don't see how bringing back the four-player mode from Dr. Mario 64 would be bad, but as you said it's indicative of trolls than a valid disagreement.

I'm starting to really question the "Dislike" button on Nintendo Life now...

@Gravitron Puzzle League 99 first. ;P

@Scollurio that'd be so confusing. Unless they turned it into like a demolishin derby

I keep forgetting that Puyo Puyo Tetris does have 4 player local support. But yes, 4 player Dr Mario on Switch would be nice.

I'd be very interested in this game if it can be played offline, but otherwise will probably skip it. This is the type of game I mainly play on the bus or when I'm out.
