Anybody else excited for Super Mario Bros. Wonder? I think the animations look really slick and it’s awesome to see 2d mario that doesn’t look and play like a game that came out for the Nintendo DS in 2006.

    The character design and animation looks wonderful and fun. Really makes it feel like the “next generation” of 2D Mario. A huge improvement over the NSMB style which they have reused for far too long now.

    Plus, the game itself just looks extra wacky and off the wall, and looks super fun because of it. Tons of new ideas were shown too, making really seem like how Odyssey was for 3D Mario. Really looking forward to seeing more!

      I think you spoke on the most important point. New Super Mario Bros lasted its tenure for far too long, basically killing the entire 2D Mario franchise. This breath of fresh air will continue to inspire future generations of developers to continue to care about 2D Mario. Feels good, considering my entire childhood was spent playing 2D platformers on Nintendo consoles.
