Don't get me wrong, I thought Galaxy and 3D World were great (never played Galaxy 2 or 3D Land), but I can't tell you how happy I am that Nintendo is finally making a 3D Mario that returns to its more open ended roots after more than a decade and a half of more linear platforming, especially since SM64 is my all time favorite game. Honestly, I feel like SMO will be my personal GOTY. But hey, this is GAF, and unless you're Sony or go out of your way to include forced diversity in your games, they'll never be satisfied. And this is coming from someone who actually likes Sony.
Btw, I know it's a little off topic from my post, but I think itd be cool if maybe we had our own gaming forum. You know, a GAF alternative to just discuss games where free speech is welcome and you don't get banned for the dangerous crime of wrongthink. Or maybe another Subvoat, as I know quite a few of you prefer a Reddit like layout over a forum layout (I'm old school, so I actually like a good old message board). I don't know, is that something you guys would be interested in?

As if the autistic NEETs of GAF don't have plenty of free time to put into any game.

I like that style better. Galaxy had a lot of memorable levels, but they felt so shallow and linear compared to sunshine or SM64.

I want to care, but until Nintendo gives me a reason to care by actually having the Switch be available in a store, I'm not gonna bother.

Have you been to a store lately? I see them all over the place now. Thing's outsold the PS4 and XBox One the past two months, people gotta be finding them somewhere.

Every time I'm in a store that would sell them, like Target or Best Buy, they don't have any in stock. I'm not going out explicitly searching for them. Just if I see one, I'd probably get it.

Galaxy 3 would be great, but IMO, it's been way too long since we've had an exploration based 3D Mario.

Yep. We need a real successor to SM64. Sunshine is a great game with too many unfortunate gimmicks. (Like Yoshi, ugh.) I liked the water pak a lot, but the best parts of the game were the special levels where you didn't have it.

Play Galaxy 2 if you can, it's phenomenal even compared to the first.
I would've loved another Galaxy but a 64 style Mario is great too.

Sunshine is the most underrated Mario game, gaffots seem to hate but I thought it showed true innovation in gameplay with the water hose as devs weren't forced to make the game work with some hardware gimmick like they did in the later games. The cap in Odyssey seems like a true innovation in gameplay along the same lines.

Yeah, I fucking love Sunshine and I'll never agree with all the hate it receives. The tropical setting was wonderful, and I adore the jetpack gameplay. As much as I love Galaxy, I actually prefer Sunshine.

Eh, for ONCE, I agree with the gaffot. Exploration-based 3D Mario games are not as fun to me as platforming-focused ones, because the gameplay has even less in common then with the basic, original Mario gameplay from the classic early games. I like my Mario games to be fast-paced, run-and-jump affairs like 3D World. So Odyssey being like 64 is a bit of a letdown for me.

I don't give a fuck about your shitty forum, nor its faggot members. Also, lol at SM64 being the last good Mario game. Thousand Year Door? Sunshine? Superstar Saga? NSMBWii? Double Dash? Galaxy? Nigga, you have shitty taste.
