Super Mario Bros. Wonder Is NOT Gonna Be Easy, Plus More Details.




Super Mario Bros. Wonder is the first brand new 2D Mario in over a decade, but if you think this game is going to be a walk in the park, then you're in for a rude awakening.


It's a Mario game, so of course it's going to accessable for everyone, but I'm hearing that Nintendo has ramped the game's general difficulty up quite a bit. So much so, that humorously, the game has apparently been absolutely decimating testers and people working/localizing the game. Talk about a challenge!


In fact, internally, Nintendo has called Wonder "The Next Super Mario Bros 3." 



In terms of control, physics, and core difficulty, SMB3 is apparently the main game Nintendo decided to base Wonder off of. Also, I'm not sure how many people who read my blog have actually played Mario 3, but it was HARD. Those last few worlds will wreck your shit, I'm serious.




We can already see the inspiration in a few ways. Firstly, take a look at the trailer once again. Notice how much faster Mario and Co. are, they've not been this fast since at least, Super Mario World, I'd say. The also platforming seems to be much more precise and tight, rather than the NSMB series' loose controls and physics. Huge improvement, in my mind. 




We can also see the inspiration in the story so far. It's following a similar beat to the story of Super Mario Bros. 3. In that game, Mario and Luigi travel Mushroom World to save the rulers of kingdoms that neighbor the Mushroom Kingdom. We'll once again be doing that here. This time, we're traveling to the neighboring Flower Kingdom, where it looks like Bowser and his troops are invading the kingdom for some sort of mysterious purpose. 


Lastly, I've been told, that there's going to be LOT of power ups, so get ready to see some of your favorites return. 


Including:









And that's just a few of the power ups we'll be seeing in the game. All in all, the game is obviously sounding amazing, I'm also elated to hear that the difficulty has been ramped up. It's been ages since the last challenging Mario game. I'm chomping at the bits for the next big bit of info to show up. More soon.

    I'm guessing they just accepted the fact that the Super Leaf is just Tanooki Mario's power up now as opposed to turning him into Raccoon Mario?

    I'm hoping the massive amount of Power-Ups is true, at least.

    "In fact, internally, Nintendo has called Wonder 'The Next Super Mario Bros 3.'"

    Zippy, if you're gonna make up stuff, don't make it sound extremely corny. Goodness...

    Sadly, the information about the powerups you got was incorrect :(

    People who have played the leaked ROM only mention the power-ups that were shown in the trailers. See this comment: https://www.reddit.com/r/SuperMarioWonder/comments/178ju69/finally_100_percented_the_game/k502p38/

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.

Image
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...
