Super Mario 128 is not a game.It was a demonstration of the Gamecube's capabilities,with 128 rendered Marios running around a grassy field.Super Mario 128 IS Super Mario Sunshine.The new Mario game that
Nintendo is making is named Super Mario Galaxy,and will only be for the Wii.I hope I cleared everything up.

Wow man, this topic is over a year old! Can I ask you to PureZC's Forum Rules to find out why I'm going to close this thread now? Thank you good sir!

Don't forget, the rules are at the top of every page so you can never, ever forget!

"Gee, thanks ShadowTiger."

Heheh.

I think the name "Super Mario 128" is something we will never see, so it is pointless talking about it like that is going to be the title.

Super Mario Sunshine was the next Mario game. After all, it was official, it was a platformer, and it was Mario. If people didn't like it as much as planned, it is quite unsurprising that Shigeru Miyamoto is willing to backpaddle and attempt to create something closer to what people enjoyed in the previous title. He has backpaddled multiple times in the Zelda series alone, but the slightly disappointing titles have remained officially part of the main series (Zelda 2, Wind Waker).

It's okay to hope that he will in good faith release another Mario game that will be more like Mario 64. But Next Generation systems have all but abandoned the "bit" rating of their consoles, so don't even bother calling it Mario 128. Personally, I think "Mario 64" was a pretty lame name to begin with. Why not give it a proper title that describes what's in the game?... Adding a number into the title only made it more awkward when the game was ported to a system with different capabilities and limitations than the N64 (Mario 64 DS).

Yeah **** the Mario sports games. They should go back to the old style like SM64, or they could use aan overowlrd map, and have level selection thingy and all hat stuff. That'd be cool, and it'd be nice to see.

Also, Nintendo should make a Mario Collection and re-realease all of the good old Mario games. Nintendo is milinh to cash cow with yet another series. They are recreating all of these games, but changing them just a little bit, and charging the full GBA price. They ahould directly port them, and untouch them just like the Sonic Mega Collection!

So... actually putting effort into a remake is using the series as a "cash cow," but porting games directly, without any new additions at all, is not?

I beg to differ. Sega are the lazyasses here who seem to hate putting out new games. Perhaps Nintendo is overdoing the whole N64 porting thing, but remember, the N64 was not a very popular system that didn't get much 3rd party support. On the other hand, Nintendo's 1st party games are usually pretty good... so perhaps they feel not many people got to play them.

This was true of Sega, too, but you don't see them putting out many good sequels. I mean, where the hell is Skies of Arcadia 2??
