Well, it's not really a Mario game... Well, it is but... Ah, I'll just explain my idea. Instead of being Mario, you have to play as the bad guys to beat some other bad guy. As you play you get new generic enemies from Goombas to Koopas to Monty Moles. You play as every generic Mario enemy and even some of the more famous bosses, like Petey Pirahna and Gooper Blooper, and of course Bowser. It would be a side-scrolling and it could even just have the graphics of games like Yoshi's Island. On some levels you could even have teams to use and some you would have to go through with just one. As you play, you can choose certain ways to go on a level to unlock new paths and new characters. Each character would also have their own special abilities that you can use to unlock these paths andsome secretpaths could unlock more characters to help you and of course, there would even be bosses.It could maybe even have some kind of multiplayer battle and co-op and maybe even Wi-Fi. I dunno, it just sounded really cool to me and it would be nice for those like me whose favorite characters are just enemies who don't get enough attention. It would have RPG elements, but it would still be a platformer. Kind of like Super Paper Mario for the Wii. Give me some ideas and tell me what you think. Also, if this could happen, I think it would be kinda cool if they made a series out of it that are completely unrelated but let you play as enemies in other Nintendo games but the games would still have the same gameplay as the original game, like a Zelda would play more like a Zelda game. Okay, I'm done. Just tell me what you think.

Also, please don't wall of text me. I didn't realize it was that long.

I don't really know what to do with it, and yes. It did make much more sense in my head. I guess I didn't really explain it very well, did I? I just don't know any other ways to explain it other than that. I just randomly thought of it a while back and didn't exactly know what I was actually thinking about. It was just a spur of the moment thing. I probably just came up with it because I like Monty Moles. Well, I guess what I really meant is that it's a 2-D platformer with characters that you can switch between, like Super Paper Mario.

I just remembered that his wasn't my original idea at all. My original idea was that there were several generic enemies that you would play as and each had its own story. I threw that idea out. I just don't think that would be a very fun game.

Yeah, after I wrote that and posted I sat there and thought "... Wait. Maybe they could be 2D but have a 3D kinda look." I guess sort of like the graphics in Pokemon Mystery Dungeon. You could kinda tell that there was some 3D look to some things. I just don't think that it should have the kind of graphics of New Super Mario Bros. just because I think it would have more content with 2D graphics, but I don't know how much space DS games can have so I could be wrong.

I came up with this entire idea just because I randomly decided that I wanted Monty Mole to be playable in a non-super-spin-offy-sports-game. (what?) It may be a stretch, but if they did make one of these, I also think it would be cool to put the game on consoles. Just my random ideas.

Hmm.... Maybe. i dunno. It just seems like each story would be too short and they couldn't fit all the characters... Hmm... Got any ideas how it would work?

I think you should do your idea, and try and control the bad guys to kill Mario or something.

I kinda thought about that but I thought it was a bad idea. Mario always wins. Usually all he has to do to the enemies is jump on them once and they die.

Yeah but it could be a game where you end up losing. There are not many games like that but ppl would end up saying: all this effort to lose against mario in an FMV? but if it ends in a funny way, even better.

Then I thought about that. The big fight at the end would be pretty lame. You die in the fight and you lose a life but you're winning the fight and suddenly you get beaten. Plus each level would have Mario as a stage hazard as he tries to get to the final castle to save Peach. I just don't think Bowser would just decide he wants to kill Mario for no reason... UNLESS IT WAS AN ESPIONAGE GAME WHERE YOU SPY ON MARIO!... (that was really lame, but I just felt the need)

ive had similar ideas before of playing a sidescroller as bowser.

So yours could be like you either play a solo mode where you do whatever could be rpg ish could be like a sidescroller where you use your cahracters special abilities to kill other bad guys like goombas or good guys like toads.

then their could be a mode where you lead an army like you say could be like advance wars like on a grid type map and have turn moves

I'm doing good so far. No bad comments. I, personally, like my idea more than Spaghetti-Os, and trust me, I like Spaghetti-Os. (That's my catch-phrase)

I just read your idea for this new game and I just thought about this: A new strat mario game where you make army's of goomba's,koopa's,paratroopas etc. and that you touch enemys to control them (you can draw circles around enemy's to choose more then one enemy to control.) But it is still has to be a platform game. PS: I dont think miyamoto would like making a game where you need to kill/defeat mario. Maybe it will screw up the story :/
