What do you want the next sidescrolling Mario to be like?

What do you want the next sidescrolling Mario to be like?

sidescrolly

maybe make it similar to 64, sunshine, and odyssey since they made the 3D games similar to the 2D formula for a while.

So large 2D evironments filled with secrets, challenges, and puzzles? Basically a Mario Metroid?
I'd honestly love that.

yeah, basically.
give him a large moveset as well and it's golden.

New level themes mostly. Don't just rehash the same grasslands, desert ocean, etc. locales, especially since 3D Land/World did better at level themes (hub maps aside).
At the very least make new assets and music.

Lots of bing bing and wahoo.

fp?p

From here on out, all Mario games should be 3D non side scrollers just like all Zeldas shouldn't be over head

It would be neat if they went with the artstyle of pic related. There's just something charming about that style that we only ever saw with the older games (and SM3DL's cutscenes too)

But if the supposed rumors of Nintendo remaking SMB2 for 3DS is true then that just might happen

I want to see a natural progression from World to this game. NSMB series was fine, but its entire thing was that it was built on ideas of the old games. Nothing felt original.

So basically totally new everything. If it isn't a series staple, cut it and replace it with something new. I'd love to see new Yoshi-like mounts or some totally original powerups that isn't just an animal.
Also a hand-drawn art style would be nice.

Cartoon Mario like Shake-It or Cuphead. Or 2D Mario with full 3D graphics, like the intro to Galaxy 2.

The choice is yours.

that sounds nice
but just an fyi super mario world IS super mario bros 4
in japan

>Mario pulls a Wonder Boy III

It needs to have the parkour elements of Super Mario Run and the option to play as Luigi or any character whenever you want like 3D World.

Didn't they say they're done with the "New" Super Mario style for 2D games?

not nsmb graphics. not nsmb music. that's it.

All the NSMB games barring 1 are actually really good. The aesthetics and sound just make them seem lamer than they are.

>mario pointing to get yoshi to open his mouth
hmmm

New, varied world types.
Art style is SMW/YI. Anything newer is bad.
Have powerups revealed in earlier worlds be relevant in later ones.
Don't drive every powerup into the fucking ground the moment it's introduced.

This art style is not only being used for certain Odyssey promos but pervades 3DL, 3DW, and Run. It's time to take the final step and make it the main art style of the 2D games, instead of the drab 2.5D shit we've been lumbered with since the first NSMB.

Don't want one

There are zero rumors of that. 3DS is finished

yoshi looks like he's slobbin on some bowser knob

sweet if true. not that 'new' is bad, it's just that new is old.

wow this is unfortunate

>What do you want the next sidescrolling Mario to be like?

Stop being like Mario 1 & 3. That was worst sin of NSMB

World may be a step back in power-ups and shit, but the levels are much more expansive, challenging and non-linear (outside of items again)

I don't know if it should be step back like Sonic Mania, and pull 32bit sprite art, but something resembling the Mario World aesthetic would be great.

SMW graphics are really odd and off-model. I doubt they would do it.

>mario's nose is pressed into bowser's leg

what the fuck

Super Mario World II: Not Super Mario World 2

SMW was literally perfect

Those are Bowser's scales, look at the other leg

A remake of Super Mario Land.

Super Mario 4

No Mario for starters unless he's the final boss

yeah but even alot of the modern 2D "on-model" art looks so stale

They need to enlist a team of Nintendo's best programmers to study Super Mario Wold for like 3 years straight. Writing papers about every single level in depth. All the nuance, all the secrets, etc.

Then and ONLY THEN should that team begin work on the next 2D Mario game.

No, that's actually not the same thing going on there.

If you guys are so certain it's easy to come up with new world variety, why don't you actually propose some instead of just saying "Make new?"

I will never be able to unsee this and I demand that someone create artwork to cement this moment

Retire Mario to 3D games only, because it's where
he works best.
Then make Wario the face of Nintendo's sidescrollers.
Also make a rip-off of either Sly Racoon or Trilby:Art of Theft starring Waluigi.

>make Wario the face of Nintendo's sidescrollers.
I'd be 110% down with this.

The 3D games offer a lot of archtypes that you never see in 2D games. Space, industrial, city, Japanese, etc. Pretty much anything that isn't the NSMB worlds would be a good start.

>people ITT who think World is superior to 3

Easy way to do this

Avoid sticking to Forts and Castles/Airships as the "midpoint" and "endpoints" of a map. You could have courses that are in an expansive castle, a factory, Skyscraper or what have you.

This post is obvious bait
