Mario Chat / What defines a Mario game?

« on: June 23, 2000, 07:14:49 AM »

1. The style
Some people say that the DKC series are Mario
games.I disagree. The world in those games is
a lot less cartoony and shares little of the
features of the Mario games (smiley clouds, pipes...) and none of the characters
 the enemies are mostly just slightly
deformed animals)

So that discludes all of Rares games

2. The format
The games that were released for PC
(Mario Teaches Typing, Marios Missing,
Marios Time Machine, Marios Early Years,
Marios FUNdamentals) were all edutainment
titles that were heavily dissaproved by
Miyamoto. Same goes for Marios Hotel on CD-i

Also mere cameos by Mario characters do not
make a Mario game. It doesn´t maatter if it is made by another company (like SMRPG)as long as it remains faithful to the "Mario Spirit" and is approved by Miyamoto.

Mario Chat / Marios Birthday...

Wasn´t DK released in -81? Doesn´t that
mean that Mario will soon be 20?
Do you think that Nintendo will celebrate
this in some way? I personally think (hope)
that they would release Mario All-Stars 2 for
Dolphin or GBA. It would contain all the good
games from SMB3 to SMRPG to Wario Land 3, and
as well as graphically updated, they would also contain new features(like 4-player mode
in SMK and rideable Yoshi in SM64).
What is your opinion on this?
