Nintendo went pretty hard for Mario's 35th, releasing Mario 3D All-Stars, Mario 35, Bowser's Fury, a Mario Game & Watch, Mario Lego sets, and a bunch of different in-game tie-ins.

What do you think they'll do for the 40th this September? It's a far more important milestone than 35, so the hope is that they'll go all-out. But aside from rereleasing Mario 35 as Mario 40, I'm not sure what they would do. We likely won't see a new mainline Mario game, since that team just released DK. And I don't think we'll get Galaxy 2 (mostly because of the Yoshi controls). So what do you think they'll do?

 

[DeafTourette]

I think it'll be Galaxy 2

 

[T4keD0wN]

Dunno, i think they shouldve saved the Mario-Peach relationship status reveal for it.

 

[TintoConCasera]

Maybe one of those wacky multiplayer games like the Tetris or F-Zero one. I'd love to get a Mario Bros (the arcade) one but with many people at the same time, shit would be crazy fun.

 

[Scrawnton]

Mario 3D Allstars will be "unvaulted" and it will now include Mario Galaxy 2 exclusively for Switch 2. It will be added to the game as DLC. It'll cost $30 to upgrade to the Switch 2 version that includes SMG2, or $70 for all the games if you don't already own it.

 

[Dacvak]

Mark my words, Galaxy 2 ain't happening. Same as Metroid Prime 3.

 

[bender]

They'd both need work but a Galaxy 2/3D Land would be sublime.

 

[KungFucius]

I think it'll be Galaxy 2

too Wiierd of a game.

I'm thinking they announce Mario Maker 3 with a movie tie in for spring., Though I want the next 3D main. It's something I would buy for the kids, but don't really care about and I am one who has played Mario for 40 years.

Download and repackage a ROM of Super Mario 3 and sell it for $80 (after they order a cease-and-desist to the ROM site for hosting it).

Sounds right. Nintendo will insure its anti consumer to the max lol.

 

[PauloRoberto]

Probably sue someone...

The unfunniest post on the internet.

 

[ResilientBanana]

Charge $90 for something

 

[MrTroubleMaker]

Officially say Mario is balls deep in Peach

none of that NOA

I expect a big update to Mario Kart World for the 40th. Maybe all the SNES homage courses in the game will become regular tracks. I could also see a Switch 2 Edition for SM Wonder that adds iconic couses from past games with new Wonder Flower events.

 

[TheChadOfGaming]

delay it until next year and drop the new movie and 3d mario game

 

[pqueue]

have mario come out as gay.

 

[TheMule1983]

Raise the price on all Mario games.

 

[neocycle]

Mark my words, Galaxy 2 ain't happening. Same as Metroid Prime 3.

 

[thismeinteil]

Probably just rerelease Super Mario All-stars (the one without SMW) for Switch 2 and charge $70-$80 for it.

 

[Unknown Soldier]

They really should re-release Super Mario 3D All-Stars. That fucking game goes for like $200+ these days, what the fuck Nintendo why was that a limited release what the fuck is wrong with you

 

[Dirk Benedict]

They will reveal a special price increase for the anniversary.

 

[MSduderino]

How will they go all out if nothing of note can happen?

 

[DreamcastSkies]

I think it'll be Galaxy 2

I'd love a really well done way to play Galaxy 1 and 2 on the Switch 2. I've heard mixed things about Galaxy 1 on the Mario collection and that release had a really limited run from what I understand. Mario 3D World is my favorite of the 3D Marios but I think Galaxy 1 and 2 are the best 3D Mario has been.

 

[Sorcerer]

Nintendo will probably have a direct addressing Mario's 40th, but you will have to pay to view it. LOL!!!

 

[neocycle]

why not buy separately?

 

[Robb]

I can see a lot of Switch 2 Editions and updates being part of it.

Super Mario 3D All Stars Switch 2 Edition that includes Super Mario Galaxy 2.

Super Mario Bros. Wonder Switch 2 Edition with a new added DLC adventure.

Free visual updates for Mario Maker 2 (including mouse controls), Mario and Luigi Brothership, Paper Mario TTYD, Luigi's Mansion etc.

A re-release of the "Super Mario 35" battle royale, but with 40 players this time instead.

Maybe a tease of the next 3D Mario and/or the upcoming movie.

They'll probably show some event planned for their theme parks as well.

 

[64gigabyteram]

The unfunniest post on the internet.

truth typically isnt meant to be funny

 

[Windle Poons]

Knowing Nintendo like we do, they'll release Mario 3D All-Stars again.

 

[Baemono]

 

[amigastar]

Maybe announce a new 3D Mario?

 

[alphachino]

Maybe they'll increase their prices by 40% for a week to celebrate!

 

[Pejo]

Probably sue somebody and brick their Switch 2.

I'd like to see a new 2D Mario with a cool new art style or aesthetic. The 3D stuff hasn't impressed me for a while now.

 

[Moses85]

 

[tr1p1ex]

Raise prices.

 

[I'm nobody]

Kill him off ?

 

[Quantum253]

They had the 25th Anniversary Wii Mario All-Stars limited edition. It sold okay, but odd enough, it never really retained value post-launch.
I would think it would be a Switch 2 Mario pack limited run.

 

[Danny Dudekisser]

It is about fucking time we got Galaxy 2 brought up to the same visual standard as Galaxy 1. I really was shocked that they never offered that as DLC or something.

Almost as shocked as I am now, realizing that it's been 5 years since that last anniversary collection came out. Fuckin' weird-ass decade it's been, man.

 

[DKPOWPOW]

nothing

DK has replaced him.

 

[L*][*N*K]

 

[existensmaximum]

I'm not expecting anything or be honest. Something underwhelming, at most.

 

[FoxMcChief]

Make Sony release their games on the switch. I don't count Horizon LEGO. Because fuck you.

 

[RCX]

Maybe sue somebody?

 

[Connificent]

Charge $90 for something

8bitdo controller

 

[Dice]

They'll release a phone wallpaper.

 

[Trunx81]

Mario 3D Allstars is 5 years old already? oO

 

[Robb]

Maybe sue somebody?

 

[Cakeboxer]

Anything that makes them money so i guess a remaster.

 

[SCB3]

Probably sue somebody and brick their Switch 2.

I'd like to see a new 2D Mario with a cool new art style or aesthetic. The 3D stuff hasn't impressed me for a while now.

So Wonder?

 

[Hudo]

What I want: Super Mario Galaxy 3
What I'll get: A wallpaper for my phone (only available via the Nintendo App, of course).
