Unpopular opinions about the Mario series

Im not talking about glitches after every battle Bowser teleports away! I'm serious!
 
It actually kind of is true, no offense.

Also, if you're just gonna put something like "..." in a post, then why even bother posting? It can count as spam, and it adds nothing to the current conversation.


Anyways, I don't really know if this counts, but I never thought the NSMB games were that bad.

Even NSMB2?
 
Not really. I'm not very nitpicky on that type of stuff, so that could be it. But I don't see how the coin gimmick makes it a bad thing

I never played the older games, so that's why I don't have much of an opinion on newer games compared to the older ones.

I really loved the first NSMB when i was a kid, actually.
It's fun.

It pretty much went downhill wbhen they decided to make a sequel. It would have been perfectly good if it was a single title.

Like I've said, I disliked NSMBWii, but it had enough gimmicks to keep it "new". It was NSMB2 that sucked.
 
NSMB2 didn't suck, at least not to me.

I don't see why people have to have a "brand new" game each time. Nintendo can't come up with completely new gimmicks every time they make a game, and I think you guys should just be grateful they are still making games. Saying a game "sucks" just because it uses the same gimmicks as a previous game is really stupid, in my opinion.
 
You know what? I've been watching a Super Paper Mario Let's Play recently, and honestly I think Bowser needs to take a break from being Big Bad and let Dimentio take over for a few games. He's obviously a real villain who's intelligent, cunning and just more evil than Bowser nowadays. If they gave him the 3D treatment and put him in a mainline Mario game I'm sure he would be received positively.
Make Bowser playable even. Just no more "O hai, I'm going to just wreck everything and steal a princess, pardon me" as the entire story for a game. Please. And make Count Bleck and Tippi mainline characters too while you're at it. I'm sure a small redesign would make them fit in the main series and depending on their (and Dimentio's) roles the Mario series could get a serious boost in epic.
 
I personally like NSMB2, reused assets from the Wii version and everything. It is a very fun and enjoyable game that kept me playing for quite a while, even if it may seem a tad on the easy side.

Also, an unpopular opinion is that I like the "BAH"s added to the tower and castle tunes for NSMB2.

Because clearly people expect Mario games to take themselves completely seriously.

Some games do try to take a more serious approach, but the Mario series is pretty much the definitive example of the silly side of the scale regarding video games, and even the games that do take themselves more seriously either have some more lighthearted moments or just shift back and forth on the scale.

Nintendo, just make a 3D Mario RPG with 30+ hours playtime already.

Totally not gonna happen.
Isn't Mario and Lugi: Dream Team like 35-50 hours though?

I spent 100+ hours on a single file in that game.

I agree with everything in this post. I was really liked NSMB back when I had it, and the multiplayer and minigames were also glorious.

Do you realize what you're saying?
So WHAT, it's basically just DLC for a game that was already terrible? So WHAT, it had a price tag of $40? The NSMB series has only worn out 99.99999999% of its welcome, so this game is still OK!
