Mario Chat / Re: Am I the only one who misses Mallow and Geno?

Well I cared for Mallow as a character, I fought with him on my side basically for the sake of guiding him home. As for Geno, I cared for him as a fighter. I wanted him to be the strongest of the group or at least keep him with me ever since I got him. Geno was the coolest character since Bowser.

Mario Chat / Re: Waruigi: Great addition or cheesy add in?

 I dunno, Wario was in Mario Land 2. I thought he was just a cheesy add in like Tatanga, but then he starred in more games to come.

 Waluigi's art looks official, and I think Camelot had Nintendo's permission or help. I think we'll be seeing this lanky fellow in a Super Smash Bros. sequel or the next Mario Kart. So keep those fingers cross-ed.

Mario Chat / What new Mario game are you anticipating?

« on: May 29, 2000, 08:06:56 PM »

For me, it's gotta be Paper Mario. 3D with a 2D look, kinda like Parappa the Rapper 'cept with no songs and controllable actions.

Some aspects of Mario 64 are there too, such as the main hall of the Princess' castle is holding a party or some kind of meeting for a truce, I see mushroomers and koopa troopas in the same room without attacking.

 Bowser has grown since Super Mario Bros. 3 (in terms of 2D Mario games) Mario's early encounter with Bowser is when he literally crashes the party. Mario may be a plumber, but I still wonder if he still remembers some skills of his old job (1).

Some people still don't know that only the fixed camera and battles are 2D. The field is 3D (well, you can move in 8 directions. That's 3D control).

 People who think this game is gonna suck have obviously never seen it in action.


(1): For those who don't know, before Mario was named Mario and his occupation was a plumber, his preliminary name was Jumpman the Carpenter. No wonder he had a Hammer in DK.

Mario Chat / Something about Mario Golf and Tennis

 How is it that Baby Mario is in the Camelot developed Mario Sports games? Is the Mario universe progressing behind our backs?
