Well so is Luigi's Mansion, but try telling me that's the same thing.

Crosseyed7's SMW 3D idea has merit... I would love to see caped Mario fly in 3 dimensions, maybe even have the Koopalings return instead of bigger versions of standard enemies for bosses.

I still don't get why everyone likes the koopalings so much. Bowser Jr. is way better.

Them's fighting words! Bowser Jr. was cute at first, but once he started dancing around in the Mario Party games and gained a full voice in Mario Sunshine, I was done with him.

We haven't seen the Koopalings in ages, save for ports. We deserve to see them at least once more. If they gain voices and become annoying (imagine Big Mouth), then we can put them to rest.

Well I like Bowser Jr. better because of Shadow Mario, and the paintbrush thing is pretty cool too.

But I like when they have annoying voices!

Yeah, sweet, let's have a bigger version of just one enemy, the Koopa, for all the bosses--including the last one with Bowser!

They were in Mario and Luigi: Superstar Saga as bosses.

I also agree that CrossEyed's 3D SMW is a good idea, and he's more or less right. SM64 was in the Mushroom Kingdom, however (a very small, very concentrated area).

The Koopalings were in Superstar Saga? I've almost beaten the game, and I don't remember seeing them.

According to MarioWiki, they're one of the last bosses you meet in the game, so I guess keep playing for a while longer. I'm surprised that I never heard this, makes me want to see screenshots.

EDIT: If you look on YouTube, you'll find them. They're indeed in the game.

I think he'll have street lamps for legs.

The Koopalings in M&L:SS have no dialog, no souls, no real purpose other than to make Bowser's Castle harder. That and, it's fan service. They may as well have brought back Wart, Tatanga and Stanley the Bugman while they were at it. I wouldn't be surprised if they were added at the last second before the game got released.

I think they ought to make another RPG. Don't get me wrong, the Paper Mario series were probably great, but why not make one that looks awesome-awesome? More similar to SMG, I mean.

I would love to see a more "serious" Mario game with a very dark and intricate story line. Some of the Mario RPGs have attempted at it, but I for one would love to see great character development and unexpected plot twists. I guess it isn't in Mario's character to be in a game like that, but here's hoping...

No. Sega did that with Sonic, and look what happened to him. Save the the big story lines for the RPGs.

*looks at Shadow the Hedgehog* Hm, good point.
