Author Topic: What would you do if you had control of the Mario Franchise? (Read 7422 times)

I have finally decided to create a topic!

Let's face it: there are a lot of things we want to happen to the Mario franchise, but can't do ourselves. So here's a topic for posting what you want to happen to the Mario franchise.

Here's my ideas:
-Make another Wario Land.
-Instead of churning out spinoffs, release them on one disk(a la Wiisports).
-Remake the first three Mario Parties on one disk and leave it at that.
-Make a Mario Kart with 100 playable characters and 100 items.
-Make Mario & Luigi 3 featuring Wario and Waluigi.
-Make a whole new Mario RPG series(preferably one that spoofs Final Fantasy).
-Bring back Stanley the Bugman and Foreman Spike.
-Bring back the bosses from Wario's Woods(they have untapped potential).
-Make a Mario fighting game(parody of Street Fighter or Tekken).
-Give Toad his own game(action/adventure/platformer, not puzzle).
-Give Bowser his own game.
-Make another Mario anthology(including the NES,SNES and Game Boy series, all with updated graphics).

I'd slow WAY down on the sports/party titles. Focus way more on 3D adventures, sidescrollers and RPGs. I'd get a line of sweet Mario action figures out there, and also start recruiting talent to make a really well-done Super Mario Bros. animated movie.

I'd obliterate Waluigi and Bowser Jr., because I find them to be awful characters. The Koopalings would have prominent villain roles, and Wario would be a little more evil than he has been lately, perhaps even return to his role as a final boss for a Mario game (though this would have no bearing on the excellent Wario Ware games, of course). Daisy wouldn't be completely destroyed, but she'd be a little less prominent, because she kind of sucks. Donkey Kong Jr. wouldn't replace Diddy, but they'd co-exist.

Yay! The Chef finally made his own topic! Well, anyway, I would have a new Super Mario Movie made. (Mabye even give Luigi a stache' and have the bros. rescue peach, and have bowser and the goombas not human.) And I would make a sequel to SMRPG.

Remake SMRPG for the GBA or DS, for His sake!!!!!!!!!!
End the Mario Party series (they're good, but too numerous).
Make the next Mario Kart much more intense (200cc or even 500cc like Ultima Shadow suggested)
Luigi's own game that doesn't involve Mario getting kidnapped
Turn The Prophecy into a game if possible...
Bring back the Mario Got Milk? commercial!
SSB for the DS would come much sooner, and I'd play a huge role in its creation
Hire someone to make a good Mario cartoon in 3D animation, that goes along with the game series (like the Pokemon show, only not anime and even more closely related to the games)
If not a show, an M&L:SS movie followed by an M&L:PiT movie would do fine if they were good.
Put a stopper in the spinoff faucet, it's been dripping for far too long (though Mario Laser Tag Online would be the best Wii multiplayer game ever)

Hooray! People posted in my topic!

I have a few other things to add:

-Make another Game & Watch Gallery with all the ones not playable on the previous editions.
-Make another game that takes place in Sub-con. With Wart as the final boss and maybe appearances by the Doki Doki Panic characters.
-Make a Gradius/Twinbee-style Mario space shooter that retells the plot of SML, with Tatanga as the final boss.
-Make a new platformer that combines elements from ALL the Super Mario games. It could have SMB3/SMW-type graphics and be made for the Wii, which could allow it to be enormous.
-Give Yoshi his own 3D platformer.
-A better Super Mario 64 remake. It would have the same graphics as the original and Mario would still be the only character. The only difference is that there would be twice as many stages and stars, the castle would be larger and the secret of "L is Real 2401" would finally be revealed...

1.Kill Waluigi! I hate him.
2.Stop Mario Party.
3.Stop all the spinoffs, except for kart.
4.Make better Yoshi platformers.
5.Make more Morio RPG's, all of them rock.
6.Release plug and play NES style thingies.
7.More Mario platformers!
8.Lastly, a better Official Mario website, in fact I would hire Deezer to make it! TMK is awesome.

I'd make 20 million more spinoffs to release in the following 3 years, collect the money, and retire to a mansion in California, thereby marking the end of the Mario Franchise.

I'd also cancel upcoming games, such as Super Paper Mario, Mario Hoops 3-on-3, and Mario vs. Donkey Kong 2: March of the Minis. When asked why, I'd simply reply " I felt they were getting in the way of my vision. " Once people rebel, I'd simply sell Mario clothing, such as Mario gloves, Mario boots, and Mario overalls. ( Truth is, people actually buy that stuff. )

If you did that, I would hate you forever and send you approx. 7 hatemails per day until one of us die.

* Shrugs *
There's always gonna be people that hate my work. =\ I wouldn't have even made my e-mail address public if I had control of the Franchise....

I'm not sure if you could stop Mario Hoops 3 on 3, Square's making it and you wouldn't be.

If I found I had control of the Mario franchise, I'd drive it into a store. Instead of saying, "Hey! You jerk, you crashed into my store!" They'd say "Hey! You jerk, you crashed the Mario franchise into my store!" Worth it for the extra two words.
