Title: New Names
Post by: ShadowBrain on January 01, 2008, 12:12:22 PM
This is a strange thought that just popped into my head: What do you think they would've called Super Mario 64 if they didn't use the "64" suffix? Then, of course, I thought of all the other games: Mario Kart DS, Super Mario Bros. 3... heck, pretty much any game with a number in it and nothing else. So, basically, what do you think would be some good alternate names for games with only a number or some other system indicator (Super, 64, DS, Advance, Wii--that last one... I don't know how they can get away with that)?

I don't understand the purpose of this.

This topic seems to me like asking "What if the French Revolution never happened?"

SM64 would most likely be called Mario, But it's 3D, So You Shall Spend $70 on This Now.

Ultra Mario, Super Mario Ultra, Super Mario 3D- Something like that.

"Luigi Is Missing."

I'd say in terms of Mario 64, "Super Mario: The Imprisoned castle"

Here's a couple:

Super Mario 64: Super Mario Bro. 5 (since SMW was kinda like SMB4)
Super Mario Sunshine: Super Mario Bro. 6 or Super Mario Tropic
New Super Mario Bros.: Super Mario Bros. 7 (like you didn't see this one coming)
Super Mario Galaxy: Super Mario Bros. 8 or Super Mario: the Final Frontier
Mario Pinball Land: MarioBall or Good grief this stinks

Well, it's called Super Mario 64, because, well, I guess because of the n64, but it also had 64 bits.

Did anyone tell you why the Nintendo 64 was so named?

Woah, I forgot about this thread... well, I guess I don't really have anything to add, other than that I stand by my "Super Mario Island" suggestion (in lieu of SMS).

No idea what the post was supposed to be about, but I think this is the first time I've ever seen someone not knowing about the Enter key.
Title: Re: New Names
Post by: ShadowBrain on June 14, 2008, 07:38:27 PM
I think that's the fastest ban I've ever seen. That, and the fastest consideration as a nomination for the WTD Award.

He's 6? Look what parents are letting their kids do nowadays.

I looked at the website in his profile, and the bottom of the page said (c) 2006. That means there may have been a 4-year-old web designer out there not too long ago.

No way a 6-year-old could come up with a title as good as "Mario Hoops 3-On-Wii".

Someone should explain this ban. Guy seemed pretty cool from that one post. And if lying about your age is a crime, I'm pretty sure I saw someone here with a negative age......
Title: Re: New Names
Post by: Ultima Shadow on June 15, 2008, 04:40:47 AM
I've got a negative age, but I'm sure I wouldn't be the only one.
Title: Re: New Names

Negative as in, negative on the number line, or negative as in, "I wish I were younger"?
Title: Re: New Names

Oh, great, now he's in Minus World, or whatever, like that grandma from Willy Wonka!

Well, bad grammar's not a sin, but the guy posted something completely irrelevant on a semi-dead thread with nigh-unreadable font arrangement.

So have 200% of all other noobs. Who knows, maybe he just misunderstood the point of the thread, and maybe he really doesn't know about the enter key. But banning someone for that one post is like, I dunno, harsh much?

Man, I'm using a different computer right now with a wider screen... it looks even worse.

Hey, is/was he/she/it a previous member that got banned and tried to get back on?

It's probably Boogalus.
