A Brand New 2D Mario Is In Development.




Hi, guess who's back? 


Yes, I know, I know, so many people have been asking for it. Frontiers article verrrrrry soon, I promise.


But first, the most unsurprising scoop ever. 


2D Mario action games are like, a thing every one knows.  


So then, it shouldn't be a surprise to anyone that a new 2D Mario is in development at Nintendo EPD in Kyoto. 



I have heard a few things about it:


-It will be it's own thing. The "New Super" moniker is being thankfully retired.


-It will feature a new art style that will take some people by surprise.


-It's "very far" along in development. Might be completed soon. 


-Online multiplayer will be included.


-Will feature the return of Foreman Spike.


-Will release during the 2023/2024 fiscal year. 



Given that we do have a Super Mario Bros. movie coming next April, my guess (And this is just a guess) is that it'll release sometime around then.


This will be our first original 2D Mario over a decade. Exciting.




More soon!

    Zippo, sometimes it's OK to give up. Now would be a good time before you dissappoint a lot of people again, unless that is exactly what you're after.

    Hey Zippo... I couldn't help but notice that there's been NO SIGNS of Foreman Spike in Super Mario Bros. Wonder. Was he a scrapped concept for the game since he's yet to appear? Or is he intended as DLC at some point since there are no secret characters so far in the game? Just curious on where this was coming from for his appearance in this game.

    Not accusing you of anything on this, but rather curious now about what is the deal with his "supposed return to the games" now.

The Next 3D Mario Is Ready To Go.

Image
  2024 is here, and after an insanely long six years of waiting, I'm now hearing that the next 3D Mario, set to launch with Nintendo's brand spankin' new console, was finished over the holiday season. This is standard Nintendo practice, many of their big games are done well before release. As was said before, this is EPD Tokyo's first full attempt at an open world game, and the game is said to look " Absolutely jaw-dropping". I can confirm a few other new things as well: Donkey Kong will appear in the game in some form. I'm unsure if he's playable, a boss, or an extended cameo of some sort. Given how Mario and DK have appeared as a pair in pretty much everything as of late, which includes the movie, LEGO sets, a remake of Mario Vs. DK, and now in theme park promotions, it only makes sense to continue that trend.  Luigi, Peach, Captain Toad and Pauline will all appear as well, though I'm unsure what roles they'll play in the game.  The other, mu

Nintendo Direct Watch Season Begins NOW.

We're starting 2024 with a bang. Didn't expect that, did ya?  Yup, I'm hearing from the usual sources that Nintendo is planning a Direct to air this very month. It could air from this coming week, to the end of the month.  Expect this to be "cleanup" for the Switch. Nintendo has been pretty silent since September, so expect more details on Paper Mario, Peach Showtime and a few other things. There's still a few surprises left in this old thing.  They have an obviously insane   of them, so it's smart to get Switch stuff out of the way earlier than usual this year.  Stay tuned here for more.

Mario Kart X Will Release In 2025.

Image
Now that Mario Kart 8 Deluxe's Booster Course Pass has finally come to an end, in spectacular fashion I might add, now the question being asked is "Well, what's next?"  Well, I finally have some more insight on that. The tenth (no, not ninth) installment of the Mario Kart series will release in 2025, which will be Switch 2's second year on the market. The intention is to release the title sometime before the system's second holiday on the market.  The title is being developed primarily by Nintendo EPD Production Group 9, with Bandai Namco Studios once again co-developing.  Additionally, Nintendo are sparring absolutely no expense with this game. This is apparently one of the most expensive games Nintendo has ever put into production. The next 3D Mario title is said to be "absolutely dropping" and this apparently looks even better. The game's visual fidelity is said to be a very high priority for them, meaning the game is gonna look good, damn goo
