If we ran the Mario empire!

[Toddathon]

Now then, we are hardcore Mario fans, every single one of us.  So what would Mario be like if we were the programmers, play testers, sound recorders, and we ran the Mario empire.  Imagine this: A 2D super nintendo-like Mario game on GameCube.  Hear me out now, this one would be Mario revived sorta thing, and with the memory capacity, it could probably hold about 1000 levels.  About 20 designed by each of us.  The possiblities would be endless if we put our minds to it.  We could make awsome games, and the Mario fans out there would be happier.  And instead of remaking games individually, we could do it on one cart!

Well, that's something that puzzles me!  Super Mario All-Stars + Super Mario World held 5 different Mario games, remade to perfection, with 4 save slots, and that's on Super Nintendo for about 10 bucks.  Now, they say the GBA is more powerful, so why don't they just put like: SMB2, SMW, SMW2, MB, SMB3, YSt all on one cart?  If possible.

Where's the money in that?..remember..Nintendo isn't doing this out of the goodness of their hearts..its there to make money , if all those games were on one cart..their would be a smaller amount of sales..but if they were all released seperatly...$$...

If hardcore gamers ran the Mario empire, I think the characters would get more and better character development. I just realised the other day that Mario, despite being Nintendo's mascot and starring in tons of games, has very little established character. He rarely speaks and doesn't do much other than be a generic hero. Most of the time you could swap him with Link and there'd be no difference at all. Well, 'cept that Link has a big sword and stuff, but you get my point.
