new Super Mario Bros Wii
 
Yeah, I know milking it, but the theme of two is running rampant this e3.
2 MGS, 2 Assassin's Creed, 2 Need for Speeds, 2 Final Fantasies, 2 Halos...



Anyhow this game looks awesome for different reason.
2D is one of them
4 player co-op is another and a return of the Koopa Kids. :D

• New Super Mario Bros. Wii offers a combination of cooperation and competition. Players can pick each other
up to save them from danger or toss them into it.
• Mario™, Luigi™ and two Toads are all playable characters, while many others from the Mushroom Kingdom
make appearances throughout the game. Players can even ride different Yoshi characters and use their
tongues to swallow enemies – or their fellow players.
• In some areas, players use the motion abilities of the Wii Remote™ controller. The first player to reach a
seesaw might make it tilt to help his or her character reach a higher platform – and then tilt it incorrectly just to
mess with other players.
• New items include the propeller suit, which will shoot players high into the sky with just a shake of the Wii
Remote and Mario’s new ability to transform into Penguin Mario.
• At the end of each stage during the simultaneous multiplayer mode, players are ranked based on their score,
the coins collected and the number of enemies defeated.

You know, I'm feelin' it. Yeah, this could be good times.

I hope it has online. I don't have 3 real life friends. :baby:

Wow, they finally returned the Koopa Kids! What took them so long?

This game looks fun, and you get to dick your friends over. Win win.
Sadly there will be no online which blows.
But 80 some odd levels.

No online??? GD it, Nintendo! Lazy, stuck-in-the-eighties bastards.

Looks like a lot of fun, but I can't believe it misses online.

They add it in games like Mario Kart, Excitebots, Battalion Wars 2... But they leave it out in what might be 1 of their best for the Wii.

Still, it does look incredibly fun. It's not just Mario x 4, it's a whole different way of playing.

Nice looks like the Kooplings/Koopa Kids are confirmed.

Angrist 06-06-2009 07:09 AM
Re: new Super Mario Bros Wii
 
So eh is it confirmed not to have online? Then why did Miyamoto talk about the game not having Wii Speak? What's the use of Wii Speak on an offline game??? :confused:

It better have online.

Re: new Super Mario Bros Wii
 
Apparently, they are releasing special themed controllers for this game.

One for each of the major players.




~Edit~~
Seems like its a 3rd party shell for the actual Wiimote.

Nintendo could squeeze a dollar out of a penny. They should name E3 to E2 or ES.

Game looks decent though, Nintendo at least makes refined fun games.

Goddammit for no online. GOD DAMMIT.

Those shells are weird. I have to see the back of them to see how if they can be held comfortably.

Not that it matters to me, I'm not buying crap like that, even if it were Nintendo 1st party.

Looks awesome, as long as I don't need to point, tilt, or shake anything.

I hate to harp on it, but I've given up on Nintendo when it comes to online. Nintendo really has it's head in its ass when it comes to this stuff. I'm fine with the hardware not having the power, but you can at least keep up with the regular innovations of online. Whatever happened to Nintendo trying to create a community? As far as I'm concerned, Microsoft is the only company that is devoted to an online community.

I believe you are okay with point and shake.

I do believe you need to tilt for certain parts of the game however.

The funny thing about not having online is how easy it is to program these days.

Like, it should be -no- problem to port Mario Kart or any other online Nintendo game's network code to a different game. It's just sending messages over a network.

Yeah and they do it so randomly.

Batallion Wars 2 had online co-op, which worked fine.
Mario Strikers Charged had leaderboards.
Smash had... lag....
Animal Crossing had voice chat.

But nothing carries over.

Re: new Super Mario Bros Wii
 
No consistency. Worse then the PSN, which isn't even that great, but then again it's free. But if Nintendo is going to do it free, at least do it.

BreakABone 10-05-2009 08:44 PM
Re: new Super Mario Bros Wii
 
More info and some of the added modes sounds cool,

Quote:
In one Coin Battle stage, set in a Mario-style ghost house, I learned the magic of using ghosts to take out other players. In single-player Mario games, turning your back on a ghost caused the ghost to creep up behind you and kill you. In multiplayer Mario, it's a good way to get the ghost to fly right into the Luigi standing between you and the ghost, killing Luigi (temporarily!)
A fun way to screw over your friends.

Quote:
The game's other half is its collection of multiplayer challenge stages. It appears that most of the stages available for this are taken from the game's campaign, but there also seem to be some levels tailored made for this method of playing. The mode offers two ways to play: Free For All and Coin Battle. In Free For All, players can proceed through a level together, working with or against each other in pursuit of a new high score. Coin Battle was more exciting, challenging players to see who could collect the most coins in a stage.
Two additional ways to play besides the main 4 player campaign.

Quote:
A Nintendo rep told me that the game's campaign will include the added twist of special Toad-rescuing missions. In these quests, players will have to return to cleared levels to find a kidnapped Toad and then carry him out of the level

This game looks like fun. I don't know if I'll get it thanks to the little time I've got and the lot of games I'd like to get. But eventually I'll get it for sure. The lack of online support sucks, though.

No online is ok by me; Smash Bros sucked online. I'm glad to only have splitscreen.

Yeah but online in Kart and BWii and several other games is fine, they are so random with it.

And not exactly "Splitscreen" :p

Dyne 10-06-2009 12:52 AM
Re: new Super Mario Bros Wii
 
Well actually, it's splitscreen - the screen is split between 2-4 players. :D It's not a face-value term.

Angrist 10-06-2009 10:25 AM
Re: new Super Mario Bros Wii
 
The changes to the 'easy mode' sound good. It's now called 'Super Guide'. You only get the option after you've died 10 times. You hit a block and the computer takes over. Until you touch a button, then you're in charge again.

And if you're afraid you'll be tempted, you can turn it off in the options menu. :)

This game looks so boss.


Ice Mario is different than Galaxy.


Glory be me the Koopa Kids and what sounds like a remixed version of the SMB 3 boss battle music.

Great, until I heard the terrible cheer of Toad. Blech that reminds me too much of Mario Party. :(

Long gameplay video up on GiantBomb, which also explains some of the mechanics and features in the game:

I mean sure I was going to get the game anyhow, but the multiplayer just looks so damn awesome.

The four player tower was insane and never dawned on me for that to work.

It was pretty hilarious watching the guy playing Luigi doing a Leroy Jenkins and getting everyone else killed. :lolz:

The game looks like a ton of fun. Another thing I like is how you collect the large coins, and then can spend them to learn secrets and hints about the worlds.

And... spoilers... about the coins

The coins are also used to unlock stages in a special World 9, if you collect all the coins in World 1, you unlock 9-1, world 2 is 9-2, etc.

Its pretty sweet.
