Re: Anniversary: Can You Believe It? Super Mario Odyssey Is Now Four Years Old

I loved the game but I also understand that some of the kingdoms felt a little rushed, Cap Kingdom had nothing interesting about it considering it was the first kingdom you get to, the Cascade kingdom is relatively small for the type of kingdom it is and didn’t offer very much, I just wanted more going on with that kingdom which didn’t do it for me. The cloud kingdom was boring. The ruined kingdom could have been so much more. The best kingdoms I had to say which stood out was the Sand kingdom, Wooded Kingdom and the Seaside kingdom.

Though I’d love to see the first true open-world Mario game. Traveling and platforming in huge areas, solving puzzles and beating bosses of certain areas and finding Secret places…maybe like finding jungle areas where you find Donkey Kong, or mines filled with rare diamonds and gems and finding out that it’s Wario.

There’s so many possibilities with Mario. He really is Nintendo’s toy box of imagination and ideas

Re: 25 Games That Are Better On Switch OLED

All games look nicer on the Oled. Though I did notice replaying Mario Odyssey again recently on the switch oled that the grass looked a bit odd in the Cascade Kingdom, kind of a blurred or fuzzy effect which I never noticed before. But those rich and vivid colours are very nice to look at.

Re: Talking Point: A Nintendo Direct With Something For Everyone, And Quite A Few Surprises

@westman98 Actually looking the details up again, you are correct. It seems like there is a bit of discrepancy on the build of Bowsers Fury, not the tweaking of Mario 3D World port. Some say it was NST and some are saying EAD. The hack leak of the game revealed it was NST and1Up Studio earlier in the year. So sorry for the confusion there. I just assumed EAD gave them the assets from 3D World and NST and 1Up studio built Bowsers Fury.

If it was all of EAD then that could be exciting as this maybe a taste of the next Mario to come.

I knew it would be a success, I was hearing from people who were not massive Nintendo fans to begin with talking about it and saying what a great concept it was. Most of my family and friends own one. Nintendo really have captured the market with this hybrid. I assume they will be sticking with this concept now but with more powerful innards in the future

Re: New Zelda: Breath Of The Wild 2 Footage Shown, Aiming For A 2022 Switch Release

For the time it will probably take for this game to come out, they could have made a complete new Zelda game without using the same assets of breath of the wild, while I know it’s a sequel, and with the exception of COVID delaying stuff, I feel if we are going back to the same Hyrule map (on ground) it will be very underwhelming exploring the same ground and villages. Also, the art-style of link free-falling from the sky at the start looks different to the rest of the footage, something odd going on there.

Re: "Donkey Kong Country" Concept Art For Super Nintendo World Surfaces Online

I do hope if the rumours are to be believed that a new Donkey Kong game is in development, that it’s not given the “New” treatment that Mario had, it was okay on the DS and maybe alright at best on the Wii, but the series was bland and lacklustre, Mario and Donkey Kong should be inspiring and amazing. If it’s 2D I don’t see how they can better the series after Retro’s Tropical Freeze. For it to be groundbreaking again, they would need to bring Donkey Kong into 3D again.

Re: Rumour: The Next Donkey Kong Is Being Developed By The Super Mario Odyssey Team

There’s no way it’s the Odyssey team, it would seem a waste of talent to go back to 2D games from a massive success that was Mario Odyssey. At DKvine, apparently it’s a brand new team which has been selected to be developing this game. And there was also these advertisements a while back
