Watch the 3D-trailer.Lemmy Koopa Girl said:
It's not my choice what people think of the game, but shouldn't we atleast wait to play it/read reviews before we judge it for its theme?
I think it could be interesting. But I won't call it good or bad until I've played it for myself.

Anyways, I don't think gold will ruin the game. I think it'll be fun!

3D, not E3. 3D-trailers are available in the eShop.Lemmy Koopa Girl said:
I can't if they aren't free. But if they're free, I'll watch them. I finally will be able to see what the 3D looks like.Lakituthequick said:

Trailers are always free. They are in the E3 News category (in Europe at least).Lemmy Koopa Girl said:
Ok, I'll check it out.Lakituthequick said:

Well, there is no doubt that by the end of World 1-1, you'll already have 99 lives. :thumbs up: Seriously, everything about this game is about coins. Maybe the value has decreased from all the deflation in the game, giving Mario the need to grab more of them.

Why is everybody so negative about COINS?

This game is confirmed to have paid DLC after launch. So far, the DLC consists of extra coin rush stages. Price is unknown.
I hope they accept coins as an alternate form of payment.
So far, the cooperative gameplay is the only thing that interests me about this game.

My friend says he's not getting EITHER of the new 2D Mario games. He thinks this "nostalgic fad" towards 2D games has to stop, because this isn't the '80s, and gamers must embrace the present, because clinging to the past will halt progress with games.
...fuck him.
...fuck him.
^He's completely right, tho.
Can't you have and love both genres, and get them both in large quantities?Chihiro Fujisaki said:
No true Mario fan can knock 2D, some of his best and most classic games are as such. I will NEVER believe that 3D is innately better than 2D. Judge every game as an individual game. MANY 3D games suck ass. I pick up classic SMBs, 1-3, and love every minute of it. Same with every Donkey Kong Country from 1 to Returns. Some 3D games are so bad they make me sick!

I think what your friend's getting at is not that 2D is bad but that Nintendo can't rely on it and expect to profit from it indefinitely.
There is a vast independent scene these days built entirely on 2D graphics, and many an avid gamer are knee-deep in the many spectacular titles smaller development teams have to offer. The graphics and plane of the game is not the problem. The issue is archaic gameplay and licenses that haven't done much evolving at all, which is exactly what this never-ending parade of New Super Mario Bros. bollocks is; rehashes of a trite formula that are only being made to cater to the nostalgia-blinded.Post-Damage Invincibility said:
It might've made sense to pull this shit back in the late 1980s when we had tremendous limitations to what could be added to a game, but I like to think these days we expect a lot more from our games than "the same shit + a few new power-ups"
Well then the developers hopefully won't make it same shit + a few more power-ups. The possibilities for 2D games are every bit as endless. How can people possibly argue against them after Donkey Kong Country Returns showed us how amazing they can still be?Chihiro Fujisaki said:
