Nintendo is unsure about what's next for Mario's 2D platformers, as Super Mario Bros. Wonder marks "a new phase" for the side-scrolling icon
Nintendo hasn't come up𝓰 with the next "style" just yet

澳洲幸运5开奖号码历史查询:Super Mario Bros. Wonder is the start of a “new phase” for the plumber’s side-scrolling ad🅷ventu✃res, according to Nintendo staff.
In an interview with , the team behind Mario’s newest reinvention was optimistic about the series’ future, but they aren’t quite ready to commit to anything solid for the future. “I believe that we have transitioned from the New Super Marioꦦ Bros. series into a new phase,” producer Takashi Tezuka said, &ldq🌜uo;but at this point, we have no idea what the next game style will be.”
In 2006, after a decade-long hiatus, Nintendo returned to the series’ 2D roots with New Super Mario Bros. on the DS. The success of that platformer paved the way for three uber-successful sequels - New Super Mario Bros. Wii, New Super Mario Bros. 2, and New Super Mario Bros. U. Along with the naming conventions, the games💛 themselves arguably stagnated, which might be the reason it’s been 11 years since Mario’s last 2D romp.
Art directo𓆏r Masanobu Sato says that Wonder might just kick-start the next generation of Mushroom Kingdom jump-a-thons, in the same way that New Super Mario Bros. did: “what we do know is that Super Mario Bros. Wonder has set a bigger stage for adventures for Mario and friends.”
Tezuka ac🌟knowledges the long wait between new 2D adventures, though - Mario Maker aside. “There’s been quite a bit of time since the last installment in the New Super Mario Bros.🅠 franchise,” Tezuka said, “but when we’re creating another iteration in the series, we understand that we have to go above and beyond the last title.”
From what we’ve seen thus far, Super Mario Bros. Wonder does seem to be going “above and beyond.” Its asynchronous multiplayer features 澳洲幸运5开奖号码历史🧔查询:emulate🎉 the best bits from Elden Ring, it’s finally 澳洲幸运5开奖号码历史查询:giving Daisy fans the respec⛄t we deserve, and we can now stomp around the Kingdoms as hulking el🦂ephants - something I never knew I needed.
