9.5 from IGN

Either way I always wanted this game, and now I want it even more.

Might even be better than Yoshi's Island he says. *strokes chin* Then again Wario Land 2 is actually the greatest "Mario" game IMO.

I'm more amazed IGN updated on a weekend rather than the score.

They are very desperate for the exclusive review. The game isn't even out until the 15th. Everyone has permission to post a review this week I believe, but most won't because it'll likely be lost amongst E3 news.

One of my co-workers just got the game for his review, and he's going insane over it. Looks phenominal.

Yay, I get paid right before it comes out. may as well grab it

I'm amazed Nintendo didn't change the name. "New Super Mario Bros."...... cheesy!

Teuthida · 05-08-2006, 05:18 AM

Don't remember the exact quote but someone said with naming conventions like that he should have seen Wii coming from a mile away.

Anyway, my frothing demand for this game increases.

Yeah, but what's a better name? "New" Super Mario Brothers is likely to capture the most market share. People will recognize it and buy it out of nostalgia.

Sure, you could slap a number on the end. But they're not Capcom.

DarkMaster · 05-08-2006, 12:21 PM

They should've called it Super Mario Bros. X5 Alpha MAX

Teuthida · 05-08-2006, 01:06 PM

"New" is an ephemeral name though. Nothing is new forever. Does this mean this is the last SMB they plan to ever do and thus shall always be the newest one?

bobcat · 05-08-2006, 05:58 PM

Mario Bros DS? That was already taken b4.
Or Super Gianni Sisters!

Sequel: Newer Super Mario Bros!

No, the sequel will probably be called New Super Mario Bros 2. Just like Metroid Prime got a sequel called Metroid Prime 2. >.<
