:eek:

Sounds really good. I wonder what Mario 128 will be like.

This is good news, I was dissapointed by SMS, I hope this "Mario 128" will be better.

You roll Marios around on a board...

where did you hear that?

That was the SpaceWorld demo, remember???

That's what C-E said, that it was based on that demo... perhaps just speculation though.

Well, Mario 128 was originally a demo for the Gamecube Hardware, and it featured 128 Marios going over a round board.... each doing a specific thing. It was interesting, and I wonder how they're turning that into a game...

They better not make some sort of stupid game like that. I want a real Mario game for once.

Yes, when Shiggy hinted that he wanted to do things he couldn't in Mario Sunshine... well.... it's a possibility.

The demo just showed the power of the console... Like how many moving things could be going at once, each made up with a bunch of polygons and whatnaught.... I wonder how they will make that into a game, though. Its probably going to be totally different.

Mario 128 was weird.... Pikmin 2... bleh... I didn't like the first one

DarkMaster · 12-10-2002, 05:54 PM

you mean this piece of crap?

lets pray that this isnt the game

Jason1 · 12-10-2002, 05:58 PM

maybe it will be like Sim-Mario or something...kinda like the Sims only with mario...*shrugs* something to that effect maybe...?

I think Mario 128 will be online. It just seems like a game that could show what the 'Cube can handle

and about Pikmin 2. Hopefully they will add more replayability. After I beat it the first time, I didn't ahve an urge to replay the game again.

Mario 128 online? I bunch of Marios running around the screen with an online mode doesn't make much sense...

Shigeru Miyamoto comments, "'Pikmin 2' and the 'Mario 128' game that was shown at the [GameCube] unveiling are both in development." Miyamoto elaborates a bit about the latter title, stating "I believe that with this game you'll be able to feel the "newness" that was missing from Mario Sunshine."

This "newness" factor is kind of exciting. Wonder what it could be?

However, right now I'm much more excited about Pikmin 2.
