Super Mario Bros Wonder announced (2D Mario game), launching October 20
- Thread starter IDontBeatGames
- Start date
There have been video games doing that for a hot minute (more than a decade) . Usually fighting games trying to emulate that animated spritework look.
this alone completely blows away the NSMB aesthetic
looks awesome
now they just need to do away with the DAH DAH soundtrack for fucks sake
I'm pretty sure i've seen him do this run pose in one of the 3D games when running really fast. I just can't find a gif or remember the context
ArcSys: But what about us...?
*Popularized.
yall i legit cant stop thinking about this game. it look soooooo good. i didnt think anything would be able to compete with D4 and Starfield for my attention this year, but i was sorely mistaken.
Cmon october.
Cmon october.
How was it popularized by spider-verse when it was already a popular choice in Japanese games?
This was an ill-advised joke post. The flower is weird
So, I've gotten the permission and I can finally announce that I, Birdie---or my real name, Thomas Butterson, am the one who was cast by Nintendo to provide the talking flower you see in the trailer. His name is Wordswort and there's more to him than meets the eye...or ear, as it may be.
Working with Miyamoto-san even in such a small capacity was a blessed experience. This is my first acting role in a major product, and I hope you'll cheer me on to do my best.

That run's been a thing ever since Super Mario Bros. 3. Looks better than ever here.
It's nice to finally see one of these 2D successors to the SMB games that feels like it has a good art style that gives it a personality.
Like remove all the acapella? Because what I heard here was nothing like those particular synths.
Are you for real because that would be incredible and so fantastic for you.

Wait really? That's amazing.
I think the flower sounds great too, the VA fits exactly with the Mario soundscape.
acapella in Mario has been a thing since sunshine.. not sure what the inherent problem is
the music is clearly using synthesized DAH DOO DOO DOO DOO DAH DAH DAH
sounds super dumb
when it should sound like:

The expressiveness in these animations remind me of Super Mario Flashback.

It's not 1:1 Kotabe's artwork but it's a step in the right direction.
i knew i've seen this run for years now. i didn't understand why people are acting like it was newlmao @ the naruto run
THAT'S THE MARIO RUN HE INVENTED THAT SHIT
Damn that is soooo cool, congratulations 🥳
Love the small quips, think they bring a lot of life to a regular Mario game, excited to get to hear more 😁

Im playing this game on acid to be immersed in Marios experience
Thats awesome dude, great work
I know it's not the point, but I really hope short Mario looks a little better by release.
I think those are probably a minority of complainers. It looks like a proper evolution of the NSMB style, keeping what works and stylizing it even further. Its really fantastic.
While I kind of agree with you I think Wonder is what NSMBU SHOULD have looked like after NSMBWii.I'm glad they ditched the "New" from the title. The reactions I've seen show how much that was messing with people psychologically because in terms of artstyle this game looks every bit as much like what a NSMB game would look like 10 years from NSMBU. The biggest difference is the character models and animations which is what the series sorely needed.
Some assets look ripped straight from NSMBU.
