I hope Mario gets eaten by Bowser in the final cutscene of the next Mario game along with a message "THE END". That way we will simultaneously get closure and humour.
Humour yes, closure no. Mario & Luigi: Bowser's Inside Story proved that.

Personally I prefer the 2.5D to full on 3-D in platforming so i respectfully disagree with Yahtzee on this point. Though I agree on the L4D2 points.

Good point on the toast part, an excellent time waster if anything else for L4D2. I can relate to that, loved L4D1 and L4D2 basically gives me more to enjoy.

i think that Yahtzee had a good point addressing the 4 player co-op problems in new super mario, but i did think its was alot more fun when i was playing with just a really good friend(not gay). I would like to hear how he felt about playing with only one or two more players, also what about the "coin battles" where its more or less encouraged to be an ass hole?

Good points made in this one. I can't really say I disagree with anything mentioned. Our culture and what we are starting to welcome as acceptable, or even "good" is becoming very depressing.

I really think Mario Wii should be the LAST 2d mario game.

I got it because i never had a chance to play the originals and i'm not a big fan of emulators, although i would of bought them just as readily.

It's nice to have a new well polished mario game if you aren't already bored to death of the series, but where can they take it now?
I just can't see them releasing another one, it'd have to be almost exactly the same. It's not as though Mario gets by for it's level design anymore.

I think i could tolerate Galaxy 2 and maybe one other 3d one. The rpgs are all exactly the same so we have enough of those. Seriously though Nintendo, give it a break and think of a new series for a change. Metroid and Zelda are only heading down the same path.

While I enjoyed NSMBWii (despite its flaws), it is true that Nintendo needs to come up with a new gameplay mechanic.

If the crappy Mario's Time Machine was ignored, I'd say a nice time travel bit...

I didn't read this article... Well, I read the first paragraph, and the first sentence of the second, but anyway, I didn't read it, mostly because I played New Super Mario Bros. Wii and liked it, and Yahtzee gave a pretty lame reasons for saying the game "had no right to exist". Seriously, even if you don't like Nintendo, and I can understand why, saying that a game shouldn't even exist, unless if full-out sucks like "Ninjabread Man", is just plain cruel.

But, like Yahtzee said in his Brawl Mail Responds video, if my opinion is different from his, I shouldn't let it get to me, which it hasn't, thankfully. Still, I found it very hard to enjoy Yahtzee's videos after that... And the Monkey Island review.

Also, this:

Just throwing it out there.

"Super Mario Galaxy 3: coming out in 2013 or so on the Wii." I can see it now. Nintendo has milked nostalgia for its worth in this generation. Now it needs to follow the GTA, Prototype, inFamous, (etc.) agenda of exploration (Galaxy 2 has even shown signs of exploration with the comet medals). Perhaps something like Sunshine where every spot has a blue coin or shine.

Imagine this: Super Mario All-Stars 2, coming out on the Wii 2 (as it will probably be called), with all 2D Mario Bros. and Mario World games AND Mario 64.
