Topic | What four games are on the Mario Games Mount Rushmore? |

SMB1 I've returned back to this post a few times and respect the framing. If no other 2D game's impacted 2D platformers like SMB1, and if no other 3D game's impacted 3D platformers like SM64, in this framing, does it even make sense to get other reps like them? Ranging from SMB3 to Wonder, from Galaxy to Odyssey...in that framing, do you need another rep? I get that argument and am riffing from here for the other two. Mario Kart an undeniably influenced kart racers so I think a rep is appropriate in this context. We can argue about which one, but whatever. So far this lines up with my votes anyway so cool. That fourth spot...I voted World, right, but also if the ideas's about how other games were impacted by Mario...shew. it might be Mario Party -- huge series of its own, plus other party games like Fusion Frenzy and Fall Guys fit this vein from after the original Party-trilogy. Did these kinds of multiplayer minigame-collections exist much before 1999? Even other Nintendo variations like Remix and WarioWare. Have we seen an influx of game creators since Mario Maker? Mega Man Maker comes to mind, but that's a fan project. Little Big Planet beat Mario Maker to the punch here too but it seems to have faded off. No particular Mario Sports game stands out to me in this framing. Like...maybe Golf on the NES? Think that had Mario in it, but eeeeeeeeh. SMRPG was huge but I don't think it's influence on the likes of South Park: the Stick of Truth is enough. Maybe this is bigger than I'm realizing though. I think Smash would be the answer if it counted, but it doesn't and I don't think it should count. I guess I'm stuck wondering now if you get away from platformers and kart-racers if Mario Party is the most influential Mario game on the industry. --- O P E R A T I O N O U S T : Nominate SHEIK! https://i.imgur.com/OpudFxm.jpg |

HaRRicH 03/11/24 11:13:08 AM #8 | I'm noticing none of these have sales in the Nintendo Store online for Mar10-day (some other games are still discounted so I don't think I'm too late).
If it's gonna have to be a full-priced game, how do these compare with Super Mario Wonder? I see SMW and NSMBU Deluxe (base game + Luigi U) are both $60. I'll probably buy one of these...was hoping NSMBU Deluxe had some discounts, guess not though. --- O P E R A T I O N O U S T : Nominate SHEIK! https://i.imgur.com/OpudFxm.jpg |

If we did a Nintendo Mount Rushmore you would have to at least consider any of them. Especially with their respective consoles. Would NSMB Wii make the Wii Mount Rushmore? I actually dont think so. Agreeing with this. Maybe NSMBW makes it on in a Rushmore-setting, but as far as Mario-favorites go I would predict it to be the third-favorite Mario game on the Wii. That's largely why I'm cynical about it being on a Mario-Rushmore if it's #3 among Mario games on just the Wii. Open to the case I guess -- Summoning Salt did cover the game before, so it's got some sense of community. We'll see. --- O P E R A T I O N O U S T : Nominate SHEIK! https://i.imgur.com/OpudFxm.jpg |

HaRRicH 03/10/24 8:04:26 PM #18 | Watched a playthrough -- I think they wiffed the ending on what was otherwise wonderful to see. They have probably one more game to justify it in the story, so we'll see the rest of what they're trying to to do.
I'm so impressed with how the characters are represented. I used to never like Yuffie and Cait Sith -- now they're engaging like the rest of the cast. That's so surprising and cool. The orchestration for Golden Saucer was bombastic. --- O P E R A T I O N O U S T : Nominate SHEIK! https://i.imgur.com/OpudFxm.jpg |

SMW SM64 MK8D SM64 is the only one you can't go without. I can see subbing out...
...but SM64 is safe. Also, New Mario-anything we've seen from that side-series so far ain't ever getting in. They just aren't good enough yet for this conversation and Mario fans sniffed that out a long time ago. Even the Wii-game came out well after Brawl and Mario Kart Wii came out nearly back-to-back -- that was the turning point for the Wii, and NSMBW was on the wrong side of those release dates. --- O P E R A T I O N O U S T : Nominate SHEIK! https://i.imgur.com/OpudFxm.jpg |

Topic | What was the biggest leap between gaming console generations? |
HaRRicH 03/08/24 1:14:44 PM #58 | I lost my post...hate that shit so much GameFAQs, come on.
Not retyping all that again, but 4 --> 5 is the answer. Ya'll have touched on the 3D-expansion of dimensions and genres already. Controllers completely changed too that generation to allow this. Joysticks and later dual analog changed everything -- there were significant shifts from d-pad gameplay. They allowed for Nintendo to have memory cards, and rumble packs were introduced first as accessories before being built in. The Playstation controller began that generation, the most definitive base controller of 3D-gaming. The Nintendo 64 made it easier than ever for four players to play together. Even in the designer-gamer angle, it's the first time I really remember being able to buy controllers (and systems) in different colors...look how far that's gone since then. The controllers have always evolved, but this generation evolved them enough to support the overall case already made for 4 --> 5. Respect to 2 --> 3 for sure, but it's not the same. --- O P E R A T I O N O U S T : Nominate SHEIK! https://i.imgur.com/OpudFxm.jpg |

HaRRicH 02/27/24 1:42:13 AM #102 | Also, two reasons why L-Block can make the mountain but Draven can't (opinion-zone):
1) L-Block was first and won at a much bigger moment for the site. 2) L-Block was still legit post-championship and even began 2008 stronger than it began 2007. Draven was not. Here's a comparison of their first matches after previously winning it all. https://gamefaqs.gamespot.com/poll/3257-division-4-round-1-l-block-m-knight-ryu-sf-the-dog https://gamefaqs.gamespot.com/poll/7296-division-8-round-1-amaterasu-vs-draven Win a contest then lose in the first round? And lose this hard? Naw. Draven will never be respected again -- even while knowing LoL-fans could still theoretically rally to another championship. Draven was such a a villain that I nearly nominated Amaterasu for beating a former champion the hardest we've ever seen, in Draven's big return, to the point that it was cathartic for the board. --- O P E R A T I O N O U S T : Nominate SHEIK! https://i.imgur.com/OpudFxm.jpg |

One's like Samus VS Midna and one's like Mario VS Toad if Mario sometimes had to be the write-in option: even if you run those fifty times each, it's hard for either of them to tell you more of what to expect in a rematch of Mario VS Samus than when they last faced off years ago.
