For F*cks sake, Nintendo !

Why bother? DDR is out dated now, why dont they just stick with donkey konga?

 

Prepare for Mario Baseball, Mario Strikers and Mario Party 7 also.

 

Spoil sport......I am off to Hong Kong Friday and Barry @ GameChoiceClub will let me have it on the 11th when I return even though officially not out until the 14th......sush!!!!

Should be a laugh as don`t have any of the others and being a MARIO fan.....has to be done!!!!

 

ch-ching cash (in)

 

In all likely hood it went something like this

Nintendo: "hey konami, we'd like you to make some bemani games for the cube"
Konami: "how about... NO"
Nintendo: "we'll let you put mario in it, so that people will buy it! It worked for EA and that basketball crap, and for Namco with link in SC2"
Konami: *rolls eyes* "fine we'll make a DDR with that fat ass plumber of yours"
Nintendo: "Isn't DDR somewhat dated"
Konami: "LOOK!!! Do you want the bemani or not!!"
Nintendo: "ok we're sorry..."

Maybe not word for word, but ya know, haha

 

just give us a break with mario, will you?!
i don't want those ''insert mario face here'' anymore, if you want to do a soccer game, or anything, it's allright, but why do you have to put mario in it goddammit!? where's the time when you made games such as icehockey, Punchout, exitebike and all? there was no mario, and it was still good! (ok, mario made a cameo in punchout, but that's all).

And yes, i do love Mario, i do love his adventures, i do love mario rpg/paper mario and mario kart too, and i do have mario tennis, but i'm just tired that mario do all sort of things with is
funny friends.

 

...I agree, after all Luigi is a far better dancer

 

Mario football wouldn't even be surprizing. i doubt mario wil have is own fps game though.

 

Aparently the next mario hasnt yet got a set path and story to it. So it could end up being a gun instead of the water gun thinggy.

 

There is a Mario Soccer game coming, so I guess the FPS can't be far behind.

Now, seriously, this is something I have been sayng for a while, but everyone tell me to get lost: Nintendo needs to stop puting Mario and company in every game they do. It's not that those games are bad (actually, they are good) but by placing Mario in everything all they are doing is aiming for the Nintendo fanboy instead of the casual gamer or, I don't know, gamers used to sports games with real teams and players.

Placing Nintendo characters on third party games should not be the solution for low sales of third party software, but unfortunatley I guess it does work.

 

i think the same thing.

 

why do they even try..

 

A Mario FPS wouldnt have guns. They would have "melee" weapons like the super hammer, Shooting weapons like the fireball flower, and other things. Doubt it would work real good, though.

 

marios great and all, but dont start miliking him and putting him in every type of gener, cant wait for mario snowboarding, but realisticly, id say theyre best off doing like they did with 1080 and attempting a semi realistic sports game instead of using there characters to sell it, i mean tennis and gold were good and all, but it was developed by camelot and not them. Hopefully theyll come full circle with revoloution, cause gba and ds seem to be all that feel left of old nintnedo atm.

 

Let's just hope they don't try to do a Mario Dating or Mario Grooming Simulator...

 

Same here. Mario was cool back in the 80's when I was a kid playing my NES, but the new mario is just bloody awful. I'll probably be flayed alive by Nintendo fanboys by saying this, but Mario just isn't cool anymore.

 

I have my reasons for hating Mario. I understand you guys.

I do find most Super-Mario platform games to be real masterpieces of gaming - and I'm sure sure as hell I'll keep buying them.

I, however, hate Mario Kart. Go figure that one, huh?
