As long as it's not a Galaxy world I'm happy. 3D Mario really is better in big open environments.

The "kind of different" is that the screens appear to have more depth, and the angles are obviously intended to showcase the 3D effect.

Agree with this. Mario 64 was so much better than both Galaxy games IMO.

Point to note, Tokyo EAD, the team behind Galaxy 1 & 2 are helming this effort. That in itself makes it worth it.

Looks a lot like galaxy, which isn't a bad thing :)Although looks like they are changing it up to be a bit more like NSMB based on the stacked ? blocks and mini mario so should be good.

So, based on the screens, and what Iwata-san was describing it to be, is Mario galaxy, on 3DS, without space, and possibly a tanooki suit? ...SOLD.

I seriously hope not. Mario is way better with more linear gameplay based on platforming. It's not a good idea to go back to the big open levels based primarily on exploration. The galaxy formula is fine and I hope this game stays with it and improves upon it. Even if they don't necessarily stick with the space setting. As long as the platforming and level design is as good as the Galaxy games with just as much variety in the environments I'm happy. Linear platformers>>>>>>>non linear platformers.

Ok after reading this post I had another look at the screens.....you may be right! Unless the one that looks like little mario is just the result of the camera angle or a level specific thing. But damn I'm intrigued now! To be honest I think Mario should have done this years ago. I find it really stupid how the health system is based on coins, and there are coins everywhere! Makes the game too easy. If they are switching to a 2D Mario style health system then I'm very interested. Limited mushrooms and other powerups in the levels should make for some good challenge.

I definitely get more of a Mario 64 vibe from those screens, that would probably be a better fit for the 3D effect. And yeah it does appear to have the 2D mechanics of Mario growing.

I sense new gameplay mechanics. I'm pretty sure that this is the first time the growing mechanics are used in a non-2D Mario game. Opens up a world of possibilities.

I have to ask because I'm really confused. How are people getting more of a Mario 64 vibe than Galaxy? The screens don't exactly show huge explorable environments. The graphics look like Galaxy and those few screens certainly don't look dissimilar to the level designs you see in the Galaxy games.

For you it might not be a good idea with open levels as in SM64 or SMS, but for me it is as I liked that better.
There was a feeling of freedom and it was a joy to just explore the levels, in Galaxy I feel that this is missing.
The other thing with the open levels was that there were many different stars to get and you could often go about it as you wanted.

Iwata : You may notice something that looks like a tail at the bottom on the logo. You may wonder what that may indicate. We will reveal the answer at the E3 this year.

What do you mean like Galaxy? Is it supposed to be rather linear and not as open world like as 64 and sunshine? I kind of wish it was open world like those, but this does look amazing never the less!

I think I'm probably more excited for the '2D' Mario ("New Super Mario Bros" type game) than the 3D one (though of course both will be awesome).


Hadn't seen this elsewhere on the forum, so in case anyone's curious:

"When Super Mario becameSuper Mario 64, the range of players narrowed greatly," said Miyamoto. "When asked 'what will we do on 3DS,' the answer is, of course, we'll make both (2D and 3D). They both have their own appeal.
"In 2D Mario it's difficult to tell when they [objects/enemies] will hit the player, so we were only able to use these [depth/visual tricks] lightly. However, we'll be able to use this type of thing quite a bit on the 3DS."
- Iwata: "You went more in-depth than I'd been expected. This is the first I've heard of this."
- Miyamoto: "No good? Don't tell any game magazine people."

This screens look so awesome! My future 3DS library is gonna be FULL of Nintendo titles and some Capcom ones for now (SSFIV3DS and the 2 Resident Evil ones).
