They really should develop the Horse racing concept rather than stick it to a mediocre forgettable sports compilation on the 3DS, but I don't have high hopes either way for this Nintendo Direct.

 

[Ray Trace]

Playable Baby Luigi.

 

[Cocoa]

I hope they decide to bring back Mario Strikers one day.

 

[Mcmadness]

The days of a dozen Mario sports games are over. Game development costs are way too expensive for that now.

New baseball would be nice tho.

Huh? What'd'ya mean?

 

[Mount Wario]

Mario Spikers please.

Or just a new Mario Strikers whatever.

 

[Toka Hebizuka]

Make a sequel to Hoops 3-on-3, and make sure it's made by Sqaure Enix so the soundtrack can be just as good.

 

[Windy]

Grezzo has ex-Square Enix employees. Who once involved in Hoops 3-on-3.

 

[Toka Hebizuka]

yeah but they don't have the composers of Mario Hoops 3-on-3

 

[Windy]

At least Grezzo cooperated with music by Square Enix.

 

[LeftyGreenMario]

Huh? What'd'ya mean?

I don't know either. Nintendo's starved for cash I'm guessing.

 

[Cocoa]

Nintendo's starved for cash I'm guessing.

If that's the case then Mario could be in deep shit

 

[LeftyGreenMario]

I'm kidding, haha. No way is the owner for two of the largest media franchises in the world is gonna be so strapped for cash they're unable to make video games.

 

[Cocoa]

You really had me going there, ngl

 

[LeftyGreenMario]

To be fair, Nintendo's behemoth status didn't prevent AlphaDream from going belly-up. I hope the other studios usually responsible for sports games are fine. Squenix seems okay? Camelot, dunno but seems moderately successful. Bandai-Namco? Seems fine.

Horse
