this man fucking invented Mario
Miyamoto has created like 3 subgenres, not even Kojima has done that.
No problem, it's Nintendo Dads episode 283 on Youtube, right here: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Q5gq9cv3zb8&t=3s
Apologies for the initial typos in my post, btw, they're edited now.
Please don't bring that here. There's a whole thread for that.
Or do it if you want, this is not my thread...
You should see some of the posts. Dudes talking about "what has Miyamoto done for me lately". We have to hear how Neil has won more GOTY awards than everyone else so he's better.
On top of his design track record I greatly admire how well Miyamoto has handled the recent transitions of power within Nintendo. He doesn't have the veto power he used to but he can and does still happily advise other devs to help however he can. It's refreshing relative to a lot of people with great power in this industry who can't take any criticism or change.
While That thread is something.
it did make me reailze how many talented people aren't recognized for their achievements or work compared to a few Who are front and center. Director and producers seem to be The ones that get all the credit. Then theirs actors and composers who are also recognized after those 2 positions.
So when are we expecting the 3D Mario Collection announcement, per Nate's recent speculation? I'm thinking no earlier than last week of July and no later than first two weeks of August.
He's not even in the top 5 producers from Naughty Dog, imo. Jason Rubin, creator of Crash and Jak, is the ND's most important creator.
Yeah, I think Andy Gavin and Jason Rubin are really good creators. It's too bad they left after the Jak games
Man, Nintendo better be delivering some news soon. We are halfway done with the year, and I'm uncomfortable in trusting Paper Mario: TOK will save me. I need additional encouragement.
I'm waiting until June is over (only 2 more days), so I can get some Square Enix announcements. And maybe a faint hope of any announcements from Nintendo.
I'm waiting until Square Enix announces the physical version of Final Fantasy Crystal Chronicles Remastered Edition for Southeast Asia since it's unknown whether or not the Japanese version has English built in or not (or even better, make the physical version available in North America and Europe). And I'm secretly hoping for some Dragon Quest news, like a progress report on Dragon Quest XII, or maybe a Western localisation of the Dragon Quest Dai game, or another remastered version of Dragon Quest VIII that I hear people requesting like crazy, etc.
Agreed. I expect Paper Mario to be at least an 8/10 and at best a 9/10, and the 3D Collection has me excited beyond belief, but I'm still starved. My eyes have been glued to Microsoft for the past few weeks as we approach what is supposedly an excellent July showcase.
Yeah. The highlights of speculation in here are a collection of relatively low effort remasters and a couple Wii U ports. Unless marketing picks up and reveals something more, this end of year is looking pretttttty trash.
fact: our only major new core "gamer" games for the year is a Paper Mario game that countless people have bitched about and will continue to bitch about and a game that's literally named "New Pokémon Snap"
if you aren't into Animal Crossing this year has been the trough of ho hum
Are we sure the New Pokémon snap game is actually called "New Pokémon Snap"?
I thought the "New" part was just a placeholder for an actual title. I mean I don't really care if it's called "New Pokémon snap" but it's just the impression that I got.

Mario couldn't save Wii U, how could he save the planet Earth? He should stick to saving small tropical islands like Delfino.
placeholder titles don't usually get fully designed logos but I would be delighted to be wrong
I'm close to caving in to buying a Wii U just for those two games.
I've discussed what to expect from them before on here -- and in greater detail on my podcast.
Basics being: Mario 64 likely a similar case as we have seen with Turok/Doom 64 to Switch.
It may be time to invite Grubb back to my show and discuss Nintendo's 2020 plans and marketing approach, thus far.
I can't imagine we won't see these games a bit later on on Switch. Nintendo has exercised it's Wii U porting muscles countless times now with great success.
I see - I'll have a listen to the podcast. I would have hoped for a bit more for an N64 game. This is sounding more like a novel collectors item than something I'd be personally excited to play. I remember most of these games too well

Our original plan was to have him return after the MS July event, but talking Nintendo may be more timely.
If Mario 64 is in fact a fairly simple remaster as Nate says, that's just more evidence that the collection isn't Nintendo's holiday title.
Dare I say, this seems like a hint to me.

On New 3DS, SNES Classic and Wii U virtual console.
Sincerely,
Nintendo.
Haha, nah. More timely in the sense that they are silent and discussing their marketing approach for 2020, thus far, would be a fine topic now as we are building to Paper Mario.
I don't think the title is gonna matter too much since it's been 20 years. But I feel at that point, keeping it just "Pokémon Snap"'might work too lol.
oh well, perhaps I got the wrong impression.
They sold Metroid prime trilogy for 20$ on Wii U i think they can sell little remasters for an anniversary for 60$. Anyway that's what the rumors were saying it think, not just ports.
Idk but seems interesting enough and is grabbing some atention, but i dont think so

NateDrake I don't suppose the Mario 64 used is the DS version? Because we've played the N64 original a billion times across at least 3 systems (N64, Wii VC, Wii U VC), while the DS version is fairly newer and aside from an awkward Wii U VC release, never had a proper console release, and with true analogue stick support to boot. Plus it has far more content. They can even remake the mini-games for portable mode.
I havent thought about the DS version but that would be a great idea! fix the controls a little bit, add the minigames and that would be perfect!

Even a 1080p up-res of DS would be eons preferable. I would hope they could at least clean up the visuals a bit, like adding texture filtering which would make a huge difference.
I don't know, the DS version always felt off to me. I'm not just referring to the awful controls. Give me the original in widescreen and full HD. I don't need or want the DS extras.
Same. I won't begrudge anyone else for being interested in it as an option, but it should only be exactly that at most, a separate option in the menu, not forced on anyone.
Mario's got a party to get to. Let Samus handle this one!
I believe it is based on the N64 version, though them using the DS would be a better decision.
