I really don't see how this is considered a "sequel" to Super Mario Bros. 2, other than you play as Mario, Luigi, Blue Toad, and Peach in a world other than the Mushroom Kingdom (even then the Sprixie Kingdom is pretty much a clone of it).
The rest of the game is pretty much a standard Mario game. It would also be a stretch to call it a spiritual successor...
For me it's: 1. Super Mario Bros. 3 (Sorry but the graphics, different themed worlds, secrets, and the good amount of fun power ups places it above SMW for me.) 2. Super Mario World 3. Super Mario World 2: Yoshi's Island 4. Super Mario Bros. 5. Super Mario Land 2: Six Golden Coins Still awesome and stuff: Everything else Meh but still playable: Super Mario Bros. 2 (USA)
@TowaHerschel7 But I'm not talking about the soccer gameplay, lol. I'm talking about Nintendo thinking that the darker edger style, Peach's and Diasy's skimper outfits and booty shakes, and let's not forget Waluigi's infamous crotch shot not being "safe" and will definitely remove them.
When Nintendo hasn't been releasing anything news worthy (except of ports of 8+ year old games) you have to resort to "celebrities". Channeling lower-end working class drivel like The Sun or Heat Magazine.
This is why you should always buy a Nintendo console only for 1st and 2nd party exclusives. I just wish Nintendo in the future would stop with the gimmick B. S. and give us a console that doesn't scare off 3rd party devs.
@Dringo "Nintendo’s games are now longer, better, supported over time with updates and DLC, and last for years. During COVID, Nintendo and its allies have shipped more games and DLC than any other games maker." You must be from some other universe where this is true, lol.
@Archius9 I'm not necessary mad either I'm just getting tired of Nintendo as of late. I'm always getting trapped into the "hype train" when they release a new console only to be met with just Mario, Zelda, and Smash Bros. They surprised me with Animal Crossing but it wasn't much of a step up from New Leaf. Now with these ports that they are only releasing I'm questioning why I brought a Switch in the first place...
@Dringo Aww, boohoo, a multi billion company with many studios and countless employees can't churn out an actual new game because of these "hard times". Give me a break, Sony and Microsoft (hell even indie developers) seem to be pressing ahead full steam.
Honestly not surprising that Fury is going to be >30 minute dlc. Nintendo has really dropped the ball and seem to not be bothering with much of anything lately (the coronavirus must have been a god send to them as they can have a half ass excuse). Still going to get it , but I'm going obviously going to be bitter about what could have actually been.
@Tantani No, if you have seen a lot of the reaction to the DLC fighters most of it is negative because of lack of diversity with countless "anime sword fighters". "Remember is first Japanese and for the Japanese" This is wrong too, it's always what your majority/main audience wants first. In the case of Nintendo, it is westerners. Also it's pretty racist (and weak) that people always shoot down the "anime sword fighters" argument with "They're Japanese, they all like anime, so stfu lol".
@TurtleTurtle
"large part of the player base is Japanese"
North American and European fans say "Hi"
And I'm sure a lot of Japanese fans are pretty sick of the lack of diversity too.
Honestly I think Doomguy/Slayer has a better chance. But I'm not holding my breath as I've come accustomed at being disappointed when they announce another "anime sword fighter" or Fire Emblem character nobody wanted...
@DrDaisy Thanks for triggering my already heightened anxiety and kicked started my existential crisis that I had just gotten over, really appreciate it 👍
God damn my head is in the gutter lately. Well with a title like "Kingdom Come" this day and age, I'm sure there's some people who would think it's something akin to Meet N' F*ck Kingdom...
Meanwhile, Europe/UK will have none of this and will have to blow thousands of dollars just to spend a little over a day there.
Ah well, at least they have Thomas the Tank Engine World 😂
Awesome can't wait to see those that are "inspired" by Lovecraft, P.T., or Earthbound.
In either ugly outdated Gameboy style, overused 8 or 16-bit pixels, or inconsistent PS1 graphics. 😌
Meh, not my cup of tea but he looks a little interesting so might pick him up. Still hoping for Doomslayer with a classic Doomguy alt or either Crash Bandicoot or Rayman at the very least...

Re: Anniversary: Japan Celebrates 15 Years Of Super Mario Strikers
@CoastersPaul
Because we know that crossovers aren't safe and Mario & co. haven't appeared in a major crossover fighting game, nope
Re: Anniversary: Japan Celebrates 15 Years Of Super Mario Strikers
@TowaHerschel7
Yeah, because I'm the "Alex Jones" of Nintendo and Mario has definitely not been sterile and "safe" as of late. 🙄
