They’ve really slowed down on releases of mainline Mario games. Suppose that’s a result of them flooding us with New Super Mario Bros games for a decade. We got Wonder 3 years ago, but it’s been like 9 years since Odyssey. Wonder when the next 3D installment will drop.
it’s been like 9 years since Odyssey
That can’t be right, Odyssey is a new game. I’m pretty sure it’s 2, maybe 3 years old, tops.
The team that made odyssey, made donkey Kong game, so presumably they’ll be working on a Mario game now. But probably at least 2 years out, 3 seems more realistic.
i would rather they make another DK game, Bananza was good
I want a DK64 sequel 😭
Was it really that good? I was lightly considering it, but I’ve not really enjoyed any of the DK games in the past (except for DK Land 2 on the Game Boy for some reason).
Bananza is different from those because its a 3d platformer like Mario Odyssey, so if you liked that one you will like bananza, plus its very well regarded
Donkey Kong was worked on by the Odyssey team, I thought. That makes it the next Mario, essentially. There was also Bowser’s Fury which is like 1/3 of a Mario game.
Nintendo used to have pretty clearly-defined separate teams: EAD, SPD, etc. Those seemed to have been ended and moved around (and physically moved to different buildings) around 2016. Seems like they have 11 internal groups EPD1-11 now. You’d think that’d maybe mean more games, but so far it has not.
Handy summary I found.
(EPD 8 made Bonanza)Like, what have EPD10 been doin’?or EPD3 now that there hasn’t been a main Zelda entry for awhile and the last ones were pretty small in scope (and I thought Grezzo worked on Echoes Of Wisdom anyway).
image for ants… no f’n idea what any of those pixels are supposed to represent
sadly it was like this when i saw it, its basically the release titles for the Wii U, Switch and Switch 2.
For the Wii U it had 7 mario games, for the Switch it was 6 plus 1 zelda game and the switch 2 5 mario games (some dont see yoshi and dk as mario games tho) plus 2 non mario games
its making fun of mario fans (plus smash bros fans) in twitter who complained that nintendo was forgetting about mario
…and here I am not playing Mario since the SNES.
You mean Captain Toad, the true worker and representation of the working class in Mushroom Kingdom. He deserves a new game.
i don’t understand the image, i just want to find out there’s been secret sequels to the real mario 2 this whole time and have a bunch of new classic mario to play instead of this newfangled 3D or wall jump air twirl stuff
