Sayoonora suckas

Can’t wait to play. Looks fun.

@TG16_IS_BAE It's not really the same game. While the difference may be small, one is a race while the other is the last man standing. Also, in Super Mario Bros. 35, you're sabotaging other opponents, slowing them down, which didn't happen in Mario Royale.
TLDR: There aren't really many similarities other than the fact that they both use Mario 1 levels, and they're battle royales.

@HotGoomba That is 64 Marios too many. And as I did that calculation I realized what a remarkable coincidence that was.

Wait the download or the whole game goes dead on the 31st of March. Kind of lame but I guess they can't afford the servers for a game no one paid for?

@TG16_IS_BAE why not, it’s free for NSO members?

GOD I"M SO HAPPPY!

Does it drop at midnight?

@JSDude1 Not an NSO member and I’ll never give them my money for a temporary service.

@doctorhino to my knowledge, the whole game goes down on that date, so even if you have installed, on that date, your game will no longer work.

@TG16_IS_BAE Whilst the guy did it well, it was just conceptualising Super Mario Bros which Nintendo owns and Battle Royale style gameplay which is owned by no one. So they haven’t stolen anything, they just followed the same concept which was just as uninspired in the first instance no matter how well it was executed he was still stealing their intellectual property 🙄

After playing a few matches, I'm pretty sure Nintendo will be keeping this up after it's planned removal. It's a game rife for updates. When your down to the last 3 players, things get real sweaty. Good luck to everyone playing

@Pichuka97 Nintendo seem pretty willing to throw Mario games away recently to celebrate his anniversary.

I played it for around 3 hours now.
It is freaking great. And I don't even like Mario games that much.

This should be pre-installed rather than being a limited thing.
No way they will retire that concept in march.

@Yanina I dont got a japanes account should I get one or wait.

@TG16_IS_BAE didnt they ripped Nintendo first???

@Snatcher Should be just a few hours till it is available in EU and US I think.
I already had a jp account for exclusives (Super Robot Wars) and it is easy to make one though. 5 mins tops.

@TG16_IS_BAE You must be fun at parties.

@J-Biz Stealing implies he made money off it, which he did not.

@janpampoen No parties right now, lest we all perish.

@TG16_IS_BAE @J-Biz honestly the Mario royale dev probably stole the idea from fortnite, and epic games probably stole that idea from the hunger games series, and the author of that book series probably stole the idea from the author that wrote Battle Royale. Things like this happen all of the time. If you're upset at ripping off ideas it's extremely stupid to get solely upset at Nintendo.

I like how getting Number 1 doesn't feel like an almost impossible task like most Battle Royale games. I've already gotten #1 place 2 time tonight!

While in Tetris 99, I think I got it once out of peer luck in all the time I've played that one..

@TG16_IS_BAE "that guy" ripped off Nintendo by using Nintendo's IP. If he used his own characters or those in the public domain, that game would still exist. He was using an IP owned by another entity for easy attention. Any IP owner has every right to protect their IP.

"Oh hey, let's mix battle royale genre with X franchise" is not an original idea, and there is no evidence suggesting Nintendo "stole" the idea from someone else as these things take time to develop.

Just got a win. Already level 26. Loving it so far.

Just got it! My record so far is 3rd place.

I played a few matches. I had a good time with it and I can't wait to play more upon booting it up again. Despite it being too formulaic in some places, the added twists to the tried-and-true Mario formula do help add to the fun and strategy, and it can get very intense in the higher ranks (especially since your timer can tick down faster and faster as you approach victory).

It would've been nice for there to be more use for your accumulated coins than just giving yourself a head start, though, plus I personally would like to see levels from The Lost Levels to feature.

Aside from all of that, I'd better get all the fun I can get before its closure in March 2021...which pains me greatly because I actually enjoyed this much more than Tetris 99 for being more fair and focused

Hope it's good! Or should I hope it's bad because I can't play it after March? Weird.

@StephenYap3 Yeah spending coins on icons or skins would be nice. But would also take away from the focus of the game a bit. Making it more "fuller" then it should be.

@TG16_IS_BAE
The old "everyone with a different opinion than my own is inferior" card.

Good attempt, but you're not winning this round.

You don't need to create a separate account as long as you don't have any eShop credit you can just change your Nintendo Account country at accounts.nintendo.com/profile/edit
If you do have eShop credit you loose it if you change your country (it warns you of this beforehand)

I know they are saying this is a limited time thing. But ten dollars says that they just leave it on the shop either way.

@doctorhino limited availability usually means not being able to get the game past the cutoff date. We've had a similar case with Jump Rope Challenge recently. Several smaller bonuses for NSO subscribers (like Smash item packs) have been temporary, if somewhat recurrent, offers as well.

Server support only seems to be an issue for freemiums that pack up shop; otherwise, digital storefronts don't even mind storing backup copies for all the games that were delisted years ago - those only go down if the storefront itself does.

Well that’s way to temporarily increas NSO membership. I may grab me a month or 3’s worth to give this a try at some point.

I predict levels from Super Mario 2 and 3 in the future.

8th on special battle!! This is going to be addictive!!!

Give us Mario Kart All Stars on Switch!!!

• Mario Kart 64
• Mario Kart: Double Dash
• Mario Kart Wii

@doctorhino,

So you are complaining about a game they have let you use for free, even though they said it was going to be like this from day one, sounds like entitlement to me buddy.

Playing this right now. Consistently top 10 right now. Anyone know if there's a way to change targeted player? There are some that are better than others for sure.

Going to give this a whirl once my schedule is a little less hectic!

@tee-cup @StephenYap3 Hey, what are the general rules? So far I just bumbled through and managed to get 10 and 5th best.
Coins get you ahead? Do all defeated enemies get sent to others screens?
The timer runs down quicker in some cases?

I like it and It’s addictive.

managed to get 1st place a couple minutes ago, feels good

I was sceptical. But, this is genuinely really fun.

A part of me doesn’t want to play this and think it’s like offering a kid a lollipop and taking it away from him while he still enjoys it, another part of me wants to play this and sees this like ice cream or Szechwan sauce for McNuggets: enjoy it while you can and take it as much as you can before it’s gone so that you get so sick of it that you don’t miss it.

I am often the latter. 😁 and I don’t get sick of it.

Hoping Nintendo drops this limited time policy.

It's not available here yet but I will try it once my work week is over.

@Jayofmaya Tetris 99 let's you target a specific player using one of the joysticks, not sure if this has the same feature.

Hope they patch in a play with friends option.

@Jayofmaya, enemies you defeat are sent to another player's screen. You can select who to target with the right stick, just like Tetris 99. You can use 20 coins to get an item with the X button. Not sure if coins have any other purpose.

I am really enjoying it! I have won once and got a lot of second places. It gets intense!

Downloaded it last night from the Japanese eShop. Once I learned to work around the input lag, I came in 1st pretty quick. I love having a battle royale game I'm actually good at.

I’m here to check if it’s a lag-fest

I won't try it, what if I enjoy it? Then I can only play it until March. Games for a limited time only, no thanks.

It's a brilliant little game and a crying shame they already plan its shutdown. Stuff like this is imo a great incentive for Nintendo's online subscription.
Tetris 99 and Mario 35 are unique experiences that managed to provide a unique online spin without sacrificing the game itself.

And again, it's absolutely baffling that they already have a definitive termination date set...

@jco83 @MrGrim Thanks! I managed a second place position after knowing what I was doing. Got my first knockout, too, sent over a bowser to another player. The right stick let's you prioritize attackers, those with most coins or those with the least time.
You need to pick up extra flower power ups (on top of your current one) for extra 15 seconds, also take out as many enemies (not just to send them but for extra time). Time became crucial for me to get into the top 5. Oh and also aim for the top of the flag pole as usual, extra 15 seconds that way.

This is so much fun it's ridiculous.

Very fun! I ran into an impossible to win scenario already. If only I hadn't lost my mushroom power. It seems a bit cliche that all the top 5 players are usually Japanese. XD I can get into the top 5 but it's nearly impossible to win against them, they get like 500+ coins and send over tons of enemies. Time to git gud.
This is my best run:

I hope Nintendo drops the March 31st date because this game is awesome. I've never had more fun playing the original SMB.

@JR150 What on earth are you talking about? Nice, hefty assumption there.

@Ashunera84 So many bootlickers in this forum, just coming out of everywhere.

@Cool_Squirtle The corporate boot licking is strong today, yikes.

@doctorhino We don't really know what the ultimate fate will be of the 3D All-Star games. Sure, the compilation itself won't be available after March 31st. Doesn't mean those games won't be available separately in some fashion after.

As for Mario 35, I suspect if it really takes off and shows to have a thriving community and that community is vocal about wanting the game to continue, Nintendo would probably seriously listen

Had a go on my lunch break. It's a lot of fun!

Well, that's a bit awesome, isn't it?!

Came third after finally figuring out what the hell was going on. There is no handholding whatsoever, as far as I could tell, so I had to figure out what coins and the 4 options at the top of the screen meant.

I win in my first match! Very fun!

@TG16_IS_BAE is the type of person that walks into a party and turns the music down

Well, I guess we all know now why they sued that online multiplayer Mario game, lol

Awesome fun. But, at least for me, there are some input issues. There is some lag that break the gameplay for me.
hope it gets fixed soon... does anybody else have this issue?

@johnvboy it's wasteful to make a good game and throw it away on a given date no matter how much people like it. Especially when crap like Super Kirby Clash sits around forever.

But you know just make it a personal insult against me for feeling that way. That's cool too.

@Skeletor1979 6 months is quite a length of time, when you think about it. I'm not defending having an end date.

I got to play two quick rounds before work this morning, and enjoyed it.

@TG16_IS_BAE no, just have a basic understanding of property laws and the reasons behind them.

Do you think it would be a good idea to let anyone use any IP for anything they want?

@doctorhino,

Not a personal insult to you, just a general feeling that even when Nintendo offer something for free people still complain, like the online play that was free for years, once they stopped people moaned, wrong in my honest opinion.

@johnvboy I don't know what world you live in but calling someone entitled is a personal insult. Same as calling someone a brat basically.

It's just my opinion they have something badly lost in translation. I think yo them limited time makes it special but to us it just seems like a tease. I would pay for this game if I knew I wasn't going to lose it and if people still wanted to play it would work.

@RPGamer oh you mean red Luigi?

@doctorhino,

How do you know it will not be offered for sale after the initial free period.

As for calling you and others a brat, my point is people are basically looking for things to moan and complain about, and in this case it's not justified, you and others seem to think you have a right to expect Nintendo to dance to any tune you want, so do I think this is a form of entitlement, yes I do.

@johnvboy Dance to any tune? I mean, have a backbone, it's called judging something for what it is. Ripping a Mario game out of existence is something I am against, yes.

@doctorhino,

So if people accept a free item from a company, but that item has a limited lifetime, then they are somehow weak, or as you put it " have no backbone " for putting up with this.

Nintendo are real criminals here giving people something for nothing, how dare they not offer this free gift forever.

@johnvboy no dude I was talking about you not having a backbone for not being able to just objectively judge an item just because it's free. I'm done though, you obviously arent here to have a real conversation, just throwing "it's free so shut up" out there over and over

@doctorhino,

You are here just to complain about stuff, and if you think me accepting something for what it is, what it was advertised when it was announced, is me having no backbone then fair enough, I am just grateful for free stuff to enjoy on my console, time limited or not.

@Ashunera84 Yes.

@HighFlyingBird Not surprising how much you corporate boot lickers will defend Nintendo. They aren't above basic criticism.

@TG16_IS_BAE let me ask this another way.

You think plagiarism is good?

@0nett Not an argument, an observation.

@Ashunera84 Generally speaking, sure.

@TG16_IS_BAE plagiarism is theft of someone's completed work.

Just being clear here, you think this is a good thing?

@Ashunera84 You bet! I love plagiarism.
