This feels embarrassing to play. Like a baby sensory video or Teletubbies type shit. Nintendo jumped the shark.

Ooh how exciting!

I just hate that it looks like a fucking Phone game.

Did the trans flag color pallete not give it away??

>>716460553
Also dear god why do these things have the soulless nintendo treehouse voices. I want to choke the mother fucker who voiced this shit

I liked it. I'm glad that they finally are changing the art direction in Mario games. I'm especially glad that the New Super Mario Bros era is over and we got a fresh take on the 2D platforming side for a change.

>>716462226
>lets change the art direction to faggot shit that lacks any of the Japanese game industry charm

>>716460412 (OP)
They really did. This one was aimed at 4 year olds who just got into Mario through the movie

That's exactly what it is. >>716460553 is supposed to be a streamer reacting to you.

you're 48 man, maybe it's time to stop being edgy, yeah kids game is for kids, big news

I think Nintendo doesn't realize that pure platformers only have value if there's challenge.
There are so many better genres when it comes to spectacle and charm.
But they can't simply change mainline Mario into not being a platformer, because that's what Mario fundamentally is, so they have to just dilute it as much as possible.
If they could get away with turning Mario into Animal Crossing they would.

Mario has always had mass appeal across all age gaps. It's appeal has been universal because it's cute for children and just charming enough for adults. Wonder feels just way too on the nose and is trying way too hard, all the japanese style tonal nuance nintendo is known for is completely gone.

I like the art style, the wonder seeds can be interesting at times but yeah there isn't much going on for the game. I would not rank it very high, it's not that memorable.

It was really fun, I liked the new power ups, worlds, and levels. I also liked the online functions and how players could help each other or you could see other people playing too.

i’m usually guilty of loving bing bing wahoo games but this one genuinely felt like it was made for small children

I really enjoyed TTYD on switch.
Which Paper Mario should I play next?

Mario hasn't had a good 2D game since SMB3. NSMB was average.

>>716460412 (OP)
>$60 for a 2D side scroller

>>716464942
64. If you already played that then you can join the rest of us in eternally seething that they only made 2 good Paper Mario games before intentionally imploding the series.

>Teletubbies type shit
ok? teletubbies are fucking awesome so i don't see your point

>>716467942
I remember buying super paper mario with TTYD being the only other one I've played at that point and being severely disappointed at the different fighting style

>>716460412 (OP)
the one smart thing they did was let you turn the cringe flowers off.

DK bananza is so much worse, you can't turn Pauline off. nintendo games are just getting so much worse. infantalized brainrot slop.

>>716473689
just change the language, I don't know who was responsible for english casting but I guess they told the VA to speak as if this was an anime.

Not taking the news well, are we?

As whimsical as the Wonder Flowers are, they really do make a good chunk of the levels feel like one very easy victory lap. Putting that and the quipping flowers aside, everything else in this game is a big improvement from the past stale couple of games.

It was really good but the challenge levels at the end were gay as fuck. They aren't hard, they just waste your time. Fuck up at the end, do the whole thing over. Same in 3D world, odyssey, bananza. I hate that type of difficulty design.

>game has 12 playable characters
>8 of them are super easy baby journalist mode
>the game is already so fucking easy its impossible to lose

I liked Wonder for the most part.It would've been nice if they put more effort into the boss fights, but they almost never do in Mario platformers. Still a nice game, and a step up from the stale vanilla NSMB formula.

>DK bananza is so much worse, you can't turn Pauline off.
I wondered about that after seeing some footage. Damn shame.

Forced soul

>>716474246
>forced soul
>it was great but not in the way that I'd prefer specifically so that means its forced

>>716474383
Nintendo won

>I'm gay
Yes.

>>716474505
What does you being gay have to do with anything?
