The Nintendo NX is eight months out and still literally nothing is known about it other than the fact that it will be able to run Zelda Breath of the Wild and that’s pretty much it – everything else is a rumor. Nintendo doesn’t have a whole lot of pushing power when it comes to reasons to buy the thing, so I made a list of games I would want to see on the NX. While most of the list is Nintendo games, there are some 3rd party. I’ll write about one game a week for awhile.

Mario

Starting things off, I’m just going to lump all the Mario type games together. It’s a Nintendo console so of course the plumber is going to be on the thing, but I think they should make a game like 3d world, but you cant screw over your friends… as much. They also need to stop dragging their feet and at least announce Mario Galaxy 3, but not do what they did in 2 where you have a hub ship that gives you free everything. Don’t get me wrong, it was a good idea, but it made the game a little too easy. I don’t want easy to the point where if I can’t beat the level in x amount of times I can just skip it – that feels kind of belittling, that the game tries to hold your hand. But at the same time, don’t make it super hard to where kids (who are the target group) want to rage quit.

Make another Mario party, but for the love of god, go back to the old way. I don’t want to ride with everyone in a cart – it’s not fun, it makes it harder to screw over everyone, which is a Mario party staple. And I guess another Mario Kart would be cool, and please bring back the Orchestra.
