I want a Mario game where he becomes a zombie and starts eating people.
Or a game where Mario is shooting really gross-looking zombies with an uzi.
Until they do something ridiculous like that, I'm kind of done with Mario. You can only stomp on turtles for so long.
Mario has done every stupid thing but his job. I don't see him fixing any plumbing around here.
Oh but maybe if they made some kind of Mario detective game, or Mario is an Attorney game, I'd play that.
You see, to me that's what's so great about Mario games. It's WHY it's actually a
successful franchise as opposed to well ... Sonic.
Mario stuck with it's roots. It didn't take itself seriously, and they have always been about having fun. That's the only key element that MATTERS in a Mario game. It's why Bowser can give some speach as a Supernova explodes around him and he falls to the ground screaming "MY EMPIREEEEE!" and then moments later is standing next to Mario and Peach at a party at the castle. Because ... it's not trying to be some ridiculous story driven crap. Just ... A fun game.
Assuming you were being sarcastic, but just incase you were somehow serious ... Mario with an Uzi ... You know what happens when you introduce guns into classic style games? You get Shadow the Hedgehog. You get
sin.
But yeah. I'd say they actually ARE doing new things with Mario, but still keeping it the same games everyone loved.
