I didn’t know Edge Magazine still existed!

@Tyranexx Ok. Thanks for clearing that up. Wasn’t there...WAIT...IT JUST CAME TO ME!!! I’m getting confused with the first Mario Maker! 😂

A holiday themed game, released after the holidays, on a system that was never embraced by the masses and is now dead. I admire the developers for doing this, despite what’s stacked against them. I hope it’s a good product and its well received, by the public. I thought Nintendo ended the WiiU eShop?

@JedRock I’ve definitely been thinking about it.

@Zebetite The virus already seems to be closing in. I’ve had six relatives get it, three currently dealing with it, one passed away. Their not my closest of family, but it’s still family. What I’m trying to say is, the government CLEARLY isn’t trying to help. What are people suppose to do? Out here in Cali, a lot of shops are closed down. Or, they stay open for five hours a day, close on certain days. It makes handling day to day business a pain. I drove out of my way go to a business, recently, only to see that it closed down. This has happened to me multiple times. And these places usually aren’t part of some huge corporation. How are people suppose to survive? There’s also the issues with people who’ll have to pay rent owed. If the government won’t cut a check, so people can stay home...🤷🏾‍♂️ People are going to get desperate.

@Zebetite People need to live! Take precautions and go on with life! I live in California and these laws are ridiculous and makes it seem like we can’t govern ourselves. It’s also killing businesses. A lot of these politicians are using this virus to turn into some kind of wannabe dictator. I knew California was headed for trouble when the governor said that he’ll turn off the utilities to any non essential business, open during the pandemic. And he’s done it. And months later, hear we are with more lockdowns and restrictions. Trying to cancel holidays, while he gets to eat a fancy restaurants, at a table with more than five people. Congrats to this gentleman for realizing a dream in these incredibly uncertain times. I hope it’s a BOOMING success.

sighs I wish the stars would aline and Rare gives the people get what they want. I’ve grown tired of seeing these guys occasionally pop up and everybody gets all misty eyed and nostalgic! 😂 Seriously, though. It would be great to see a PROPER return! I still remember the awesome trailer for the last game. I wish I was as fond of the final product.

@Bobb what do you mean?

I remember owning a 3D version of this game. I wanna say it was on the 64, but I don’t recall Capcom being very supportive of the 64. Maybe it was the PS2. Anyway, I remember it being too tough for me to enjoy.

@Stocksy the vitriol is kind of surprising. I wonder if there’s an undertone of jealousy in a lot of these comments. If this was somehow going to be released on the Switch, as part of their “partnership,” people would lose their minds.

I could be wrong, but it feels like a Netflix has fallen off. I’m not seeing a lot of buzz surrounding them, these days. My debit card expired and Netflix couldn’t charge me. Didn’t think twice about not renewing it.

Another bare bones collection that shows their ego, because they know the masses will eat it up! I’m guessing. I bought the All-Star collection! 😂

Looks awful (judging screenshots only). It’s like I’m looking at something from two generations ago.

Dope article! I somehow missed part one. I’m just now seeing the community, article...thing. Sorry, I don’t know the proper term! 😂 I’ll definitely look into some of these!

I used to love the animated show. Never knew what I was really watching, while I ate my breakfast! I might get this. I’ve never been a big point and click person, but I’ve been curious about it.

I overlooked Dragon Quest Builders, the first time this article was published. I was too busy looking for Origami King. I’m glad boredom brought me back!

@Toy_Link ok. Thanks for clearing that up for me!

@Toy_Link I’m confused. So Nintendo was also suppose to be a part of Epic Universe? I thought it was strictly a Universal thing. Or, was Epic Universe supposed to be next to Universal? I remember hearing about that park, but I thought it was it’s own thing. Is the setup something like Disneyland and California Adventure?

@Noid I guess I’m delusional, but I thought I remember reading about Donkey Kong and Zelda being apart of this.

I loved the buildup to the actual release. I found the creator interesting. Pixar playing a part helped my excitement. Too bad the negatives were a no go for me.

The 64 era hasn’t aged well. Still my favorite! ☺️

Never heard of the series. Just reading this article gave me shovel ware vibes. Then I see the comments. I wonder if the developers name triggered something subconsciously! Maybe I’m aware of their work and didn’t realize it! 😂

@Miyamotosan There was somebody (a fellow commenter) who convinced me to buy it. The reviews and people’s opinions had me on the fence. The comment and the fact that people seemed to not be to fond of the Wii entry (the only Mario RPG game I’ve played AND LOVED) convinced me to eventually get it. After seeing the comments on the Wii entry, I’m thinking, ok, so is it the game that people genuinely wasn’t to fond of? Or, do the fans want Nintendo to give them more of the same (the SNES version) with updates? I’m leaning more towards the later.

If Origami King was on sale, I would buy it. I plan on buying it anyway, I’m just not ready to play it.

I bought S3 back in March. I love Picross. Even the 3DS game. But, after awhile, the puzzles in S3 started to feel like a chore. The rules aren’t that clear on how to solve the more complex puzzles. I resorted to using hints, which takes away from the fun, and even then it felt like guess work in order to continue. Whenever I got stuck back in the day, it felt it took clear and logical thinking to get myself out of whatever jam I thought I was in. Sad, because when I did play, it was a nice change of pace, when compared to other games I have.

Can somebody PLEASE answer this question?! I have this game, and the first, downloaded. I want to play the sequel, first (played the demo). So I have to play the original game, in order to enjoy this game? I haven’t been able to find an answer, anywhere?

@papermarioamiibo My first thought.

Looks like Nintendo was influenced by a certain, celestial brush wielding God! 😜

I haven’t been able to find the answer to this question. Since the game has been brought up, I’ll try again.

I have Yooka Laylee and the sequel download, ready to play. I want to play the first game, but seeing how I played Odyssey this year, I’m afraid of it being a letdown. Especially after the ok reception. But, I really want to play the sequel! Do I have to play the first game, in order to enjoy the sequel?

@Umario251 thanks for that! I’ll go ahead and get the game, once I make my way through at least half my backlog (almost finished with Okami!) One question. Why do you find the battle system questionable?

To this day, I’m on the fence as to whether or not I should buy this game. I’ve read and watched reviews. I’ve looked at people comments on it. I’m still undecided. 🤷🏾‍♂️ I’ve only played the Wii Paper Mario. I LOVED that game! It wasn’t until the release of King, that I’ve noticed a lot of people don’t like the Wii entry in the series. I might end up getting it, based on my experience and how others felt about Super Paper Mario.

Sega gets a lot of flack. Most of it (all?) is justifiable. But, I’ve always admired them for taking chances. What they did with the Dreamcast is a beautiful example.

😳 My face when I saw the number of comments! 😂

I have both Switch consoles. I got both around the same time. While I enjoy how much easier it is to carry my Lite in my backpack, I rarely use it. Matter of fact, if it wasn’t for me seeing the article on this site, about charging the console, I wouldn’t have touched it when I did. Also, it’s rare that I play my OG Switch on my tv.

@EVIL-C I think pre-sales for the new consoles in Japan have been encouraging for Microsoft. I remember seeing that somewhere.

I have lots of love for Nintendo, but these anniversary collections show their hubris. 😒 If this ends up being true, it wouldn’t be a big deal, if the collection was stuffed with extras. Same goes for timed releases.

Are we in the days on the SNES! 🤷🏾‍♂️

@AJDarkstar I was shocked by the low sales of Zelda. Seeing your comment definitely helped put what I’m seeing in perspective.

I have nothing against Reggie. But, reading interviews with him became boring after awhile. He sounded so...corporate. I get it, it’s his job. I just didn’t understand the rabid love after awhile. Always saying “the right thing” regardless of the situation.

Still playing Okami. I’m stuck! 😞

@SwitchForce I think this is the game your referring to.

@Not-Geno Co-sign! I wonder if COVID has to do with its longevity?

Not since the GameCube have I been so bored by the launch of a new console. No killer AAA games, day one. The ability to play new games on the old consoles, makes this next gen even less exciting. All this excitement about quicker load times, teraflops and playing however you want, had me thinking how happy I am with my Switch. Not since the SNES has Nintendo been in such a beautiful position in terms of library of games. Also, it started out the gate strong. I hear that the Xbox, play how you want feature, works surprisingly well. But, it can’t compete with having the Switch library on the go. In my eyes, it never will. This, coming from somebody who owns an Xbox One to go with my Switch.

@charlieonholiday I now understand all of the comments that basically said, “I envy anybody who gets to experience this game for the first time.”

Okami. I was on it heavy until I found out Roller Coaster Tyson 3 was out, and was actually good! I’m about 30 hours into Okami. I want to have it done by Monday. I have a digital backlog and I’m ready to move on. Still love Okami, though! I’ve also gotten the hang of playing RCT 3 on the Switch. It was painful! 😂

I played the original on Game Pass. I loved it, but I never got around to finishing it. Don’t know why, exactly. I loved it while I played it. I will definitely buy both on the Switch.

Edit: It’ll be interesting to see how the rumble is on the Switch version. It helped to immerse myself while playing the game on the Xbox One. Very strong!

I really enjoyed this game on the PS Vita (R.I.P.). I also bought the soundtrack.

@rushiosan it used to be so disheartening to hear somebody say, “what’s that?,” three years into the WiiU’s life.

@Jojo_Frekote I thought about trying 8 on the WiiU, but the Wii version left such a bad taste in my mouth! It didn’t help that I went to a midnight launch to get it! 😂 It just felt like the thing to do at the time! 🤷🏾‍♂️😂 I’ll give 8 a try. May as well. The Switch has done nothing but impress me so far (was able to snag an OG and Lite Switch this past March!), so why not give 8 a shot!

Playing modern Mario Kart games is like when I play the modern Street Fighters and Smash Bros. People see fun, I see chaos! 😂 And if I emerge victorious while playing, it’s pure luck! 😂

@JMR_Alden The fact that I don’t know what that is should tell you something. 🤷🏾‍♂️ All I know is, my success rate was best while playing that and the DS version. 😂 The Wii Mario Kart officially turned me off the series.

I grew up playing Mario Kart. By the time the WiiU came along, I was done with the franchise. The AI has turned me off this series. It don’t see how people win playing these games! Guess I just can’t get the hang of it. 🤷🏾‍♂️ I did love the DS and 64 versions! They were the only ones that felt like they had a nice balance when it came to difficulty.

This looks really cool, though! I wish I had a child. I would let it play this, take it away, give it the original SNES version! I wanna see the reaction! 😂
