New Super Mario Bros Wii Collector's Edition with additional characters?

Nintendo Dpad:
"Recently at E3, New Super Mario Bros Wii was unveiled, but for whatever reason only a select few characters were to be playable. Well rumor has it, Nintendo may have not let all the cats out of the bag and a collector's edition with additional characters looks to be in the cards."

Hope this is true. This game is already a must buy and there is so much potential for additional characters.

Product5382d ago

Agreed. More characters would be awesome. I really hope this is true.

PhDInParapsychology5382d ago

I'd like to see some different versions of characters in the game like Mario 64 Mario, Paper Mario, and of course classic 2D Mario. That'd be sweet.

Goomba125382d ago (Edited 5382d ago )

Game sounds good. I'd have to root for Shy Guy being playable. What an under-rated character. Then again so is Goomba.

2D Mario would be good.

desolationstorm5382d ago

I just always thought it was weird that they put two different color Toads. They could put other characters in, at least have 4 different characters not just a different color one.

lizard812885382d ago

hard pill to swallow, since they said there are going to be just those 4 only in an interview...
i really hope they do add some more in.

Arkem5382d ago

Correct me if I'm wrong but isn't this the first time Nintendo releases a Collector's edition? Due to that idea it really makes me wonder if this is true.

Product5382d ago

I'm with you. If true though it would be awesome.

I mean Gamestop isn't known for their reliable information, but this did come up so i guess we should atleast think about the possibility.

Goodbye New Mario, I Won't Miss You

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?

specialguest314d ago

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

__SteakDeck__314d ago

@specialguest Yeah those animations are insane.

FinalFantasyFanatic314d ago

You really didn't notice the difference? It's really obvious, I was surprised when I first saw the trailer.

Asplundh314d ago

"Am I missing something?"

Your glasses maybe?

Juancho51314d ago

This Mario game looks great, getting a switch for this and Mario RPG. CANT WAIT, TITS JACKED.

Profchaos314d ago

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

Outlawzz313d ago

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

shinoff2183313d ago

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

Super Mario U is a great one that reminds me alot of Super Mario World on snes. When ran in 4k@60fps on pc, it's hard not to love it.

89% Metacritic another stellar creative game.

SkatterBrain1773d ago (Edited 1773d ago )

Well if Little Big Planet went 3d with Dreams then I guess marios going 3D maker next, looking forward to that

King_Noctis1773d ago (Edited 1773d ago )

I think going forward it would be redundant to have another NSMB game on the Switch as the Mario Maker series can accomplish almost anything the NSMB series have level-wise.

jjb19811773d ago

Could you imagine a Mario 64 maker? Phenomenal.

Jin_Sakai1772d ago (Edited 1772d ago )

I’d rather have a Zelda Maker. The dungeon builder on the new upcoming Zelda: Links Awakening looks like a testing ground.

Aonuma hinted at the possibility of Chamber Dungeons evolving into a Zelda Maker game in an interview with Kotaku during E3. Reporter Jason Schreier asked Aonuma directly if a Zelda Maker was in the cards, to which Aonuma replied:

“I can’t predict the future, but if people do love this idea of arranging dungeons, I’ll keep that in mind going forward.”
