Why New Super Mario Bros. 3 Never Happened

Erm actually, the third NSMB game is NSMB2. Nintendo just doesn’t want to admit it. ☝️🤓

Not gonna lie, as a kid the whole reason i wanted the Wii U was because of Mario U… It was literally a system seller for me, cause i loved NSMBWii so much

[DonThe_First]

But I did hear the ORIGINAL mario Bros 3 might get remade..

[GarrettSmith-kkdh]

One reason is that they heard fans say that most of them (Except NSMB DS) are very similar which causes people to be bored and not interested into them.

3:36 that logo looks shockingly believable

[FanYTXP]

The Game itself doesn't makes any sense like Sonic the Hedgehog 4 Episode 3

Logically NSMB2 is a direct sequel to NSMB because Yellow & Blue Toads are not playable.

My theory is that Nintendo wanted to do something different with 2d mario, or it was planned but canceled because of lack of time and resources because of all the new mario content we have been getting, (also love your vids, keep up the good work, )

I think they just wanted to do something different with the 2d games

I loved Wonder, but I felt the level design paled in comparison to the New series. It felt that Wonder chose to focus on style and uniqueness (which is good in it's own right) over challenging or explorative experiences.

Mario Wonder is the best 2d Mario game since Mario World imo

[CaveMiner]

I have always enjoyed the NSMB series and was disappointed there was not a new 2D game for the switch for a long time, until Wonder

Imagine Nintendo dropping a nsmb3 trailer after this video released, boy that would be something

[nickymaker]

I have a feeling mario maker 2 did replace new super mario brothers but not an original 2d mario game. Super Mario Maker 2 can basically replicate most of the things new super mario can do and even do unique things that the new series can’t do. If they were to make another one that was once again, not too original, the backlash would have been insane. Not only cause you can get your infinite new super mario content already in mario maker but also cause mario u deluxe exists on the switch.
While a part of me is sad that the series is dead (I especially miss that triple jump you mentioned), I think this is the next step Nintendo needed for 2D Mario.

Great video, at least we have plenty of other hacks though, anyways, keep it up!

The reason they didn’t make another new supe was because of Mario maker, but that also why we got wonder. The developers stated that they wanted to outdo what the fans did.

The good news is that until Nintendo announces it, it doesn't exist, and you don't have to play it if it does end up existing. People like remakes. People like older games remade with modern sensibilities. It's nothing new, and asking "why" at this point just feels like a reason to express your personal disappointment over something that you never even have to think about

[pinto]

I’m glad I’m not the only one who noted that the triple jump was missing in SMBW. You also can’t control the jump height of the spin jump in SMBW, which is also odd. I think the next entry needs to evolve the platforming moveset to include everything from past games (e.g. side somersault, ground pound to jump) plus some new moves to make the movement of Mario feel even more dynamic.

[mk-mkwil]

I think Nintendo also started that the development time was somewhat a problem but the mostly budget to keep costs of the game development process down so that why new super Mario bros just keep the same traditional style gameplay. And wonder just proves how they went above and beyond to make some as good that much it appears and play way different than new super Mario bros games did.

My idea: Nintendo spent a while making part of nsmb3, realized that they had many ideas for a different game, and pushed the Nintendo switch, but still was adding ideas to wonder, once they realized it would take much longer than expected, decided to take a small break porting nsmbu deluxe, then kept working on wonder
