Michael Perry writes: "This year's E3 was a feast for the eyes, showing off some very impressive games for all three major home consoles. While the Microsoft and Sony E3 press conferences were stuffed full of gaming goodness, the Nintendo press conference seems to be left in the dust. If you actually look at what Nintendo has coming out for the "hardcore" you will realize they are doing a better job of tailoring towards that crowd that they have in the past. Don't believe me? then feast your eyes on this amazing list (in no particular order) that Nintendo has to offer for gamers like me and you (pointing my finger at you). I'm almost positive this list will have something for all gamers to enjoy, well, all gamers that aren't worried about losing weight, waggling, or getting their heart rate checked."
Cultured Vultures: Put on your freshest dungarees and chow down on the ripest mushroom as we reel off the best Mario games ever made to celebrate Mar10 Day.
My top 3 are Mario 3, Mario World and Mario 64. Mario Odyssey is also excellent, and I enjoyed Sunshine but didn't care for the Galaxy series.
Super Mario Bros. Wonder is the first Mario 2D game in almost two decades without the New Super Mario art style, and it looks all the better for it
Am I missing something? It looks exactly the same, just higher resolution… Is this sarcasm?
Yes, you're not observant if you think it looks exactly the same. It immediately appeared different to me from the start. Mario's 3D model will always be the same, so not much difference there. However, the animation they've given the Super Mario Wonder makes it look more like a CGI Mario animation where as the New Mario Bros game looks more like typical video game animation movements

You really didn't notice the difference? It's really obvious, I was surprised when I first saw the trailer.
This Mario game looks great, getting a switch for this and Mario RPG. CANT WAIT, TITS JACKED.
Yeah I liked how much more emotion could be conveyed through the new style at first glance I didn't see much difference but then rewatching the trailer I'm seeing more and more animations that remind me of the Mario artwork from the manual of smb3
I hated the new super Mario bros Style. This new one seems a lot more expressive and less generic. I hope it's a good game
I prefer the 2d Mario's. Me and my girl have played them all together and mario galaxy , Mario odyssey. The 2nd player option is extremely eh
Nintenderos: "We kick off our interviews this year with a very special one with George Kamitani, president of Vanillaware. In case you didn't know this study, it is the one behind games of the stature of Muramasa: The Demon Blade, Odin Sphere or Dragon's Crown. In addition to, of course, unforgettable titles like the wonderful 13 Sentinels: Aegis Rim published by Atlus a few months ago."
How many times must I hold this sign up my arms are getting tired!
Unless capcom decides to do a port and add some extra features to the Playstation 3 and allows me to transfer my Unite character to tri~ even though it probably wouldn't be possible.
With games like Muramasa, No More Hero's and Metroid Other M coming I think the Wii is looking better but still not exactly the ideal choice for the hardcore fan. Look how long it has taken to get a decent line up like this. It may not happen again after it passes as well which is also something to keep in mind.
I will say at this point I don't regret owning a Wii in fact had a I not had one I would have bought one just to play Muramasa however I don't know of the majority of the hardcore fans out there who own a Wii feel the same.
Interesting read
Nah, the Wii will never get the hardcore title.. It's just.. not a serious console..
I like this- I am still holding on to my Wii. Someone told me last night Nintendo was going to start fading out and I just laughed at them. There are some titles only Nintendo should do.
