I literally just beat the original three months ago or so, so needless to say I don't want to immediately play it AGAIN! However, I have spoiled myself instead by looking at the leaks, and without spoiling anything, YOU'RE IN FOR A TREAT. Also the soundtrack is a bop.

Distant sparks call to a Pratt still unnamed

Search your soul and reawaken the undying Praaaatttttt!!!!
I've finally found a way to work through my backlog. It's called the Wheel of Suffering! The first game I got was Mario Bros 3, so that's what I'm playing!
@NeonPizza "I usually can't stand easy games, I always figure, what's the point?" If you want to try something where taking one death leads to you doing everything over, try Celeste Farewell Golden Berry. That's a wallop! In all seriousness, I see what you're getting at. I will say it is a bit nostalgia fueled, but the point still stands: modern Marios are easier. However, there is a good reason to remove the "send back to the beginning of the world after a game over" feature: it doesn't lead to anything new. You're just playing the same level over again. Yes, you get more practice, but after a while you go from mastering a level to just playing it over and over as you fail to beat one boss (cough cough, Mega Man). Also, there are collectibles, and being forced to collect them every single time would be a nightmare.
That box art though "Ok, place these graphics here..." "How's it looking? We have to show it to the boss in five minutes!" "Umm, there's still lots of transparent space... maybe if I place some boxes here an there... no I don't want the fill to be white-" "We have to turn it in now!" "Ok, let's go!" In all seriousness, my hype levels are EXTREME!
I want Detective Pikachu, but it comes out in four days (wow already!?) and I don't want to take on anything too long so I'm ready for Mario Wonder. Although, Wario Land 3 may not be the best substitute... (like Wario, it kinda stinks).
So far, here's my opinion: the controls are meh, the AI's are indeed annoying, some puzzles are impossible without two players at least, but besides that, great game so far.
Finally going to give this game a try. My friend will play it with me! I just hope there's some way to deal with the other two kirbys... (kirbies? I'm not sure.)
Luckily, I managed to catch this reveal live with help from a friend. And I have to say, WOWSERS TROUSERS, did not expect that! To bad I literally just beat it...
@Tott Good idea. Honestly though, I have zero expectations and want nothing from the direct. Mario Wonder is enough for me right now, and while I wait I'm sure I'll find something else to do.

Ok, now this is just ridiculous. 1.5 terabytes? For a Switch? 99% of people don't need this.
Though it is good for the 1% that need it.
