Anyway, I've heard from a Japanese guy at Nintendo that it's going to be released for the GCN, while others state it's going to be a launch title for the new console. I'm confused now.

And play Paper Mario 2...it's not a "real" Mario game, I suppose, but the original had plenty of platforming and action in it, I imagine this one will be the same. Actually, to me, Paper Mario felt more like a classic Mario game than Super Mario 64 or Super Mario Sunshine.

It could still be coming out on GameCube hardware and launch with the Revolution if the Revolution is backwards compatible. But the game may not be compatible with the GameCube controller because the Revolution is supposed to offer new ways to game.
Miyamato said he liked it when people used to move there controller when jumping as Mario the first time they played the NES. I could see the movement of the controller or some flight sticks controling Mario. For the first time we would move Mario on screen with our arms instead of our thumbs.
Then again we may be doomed to Mario Piano.

I suppose you could argue the only real "REAL" Mario games are the 2D side-scrollers. But in recent years, Mario has pretty much transcended genre. There are millions who know Mario more for games like Mario Party and Mario Kart than any of his platformers.
As for Miyamoto's controller comments.
I've longed believed Nintendo's next console would use some kind of motion-sensor technology in its controllers. Nintendo has already experimented with such technology before. In fact, the upcoming new Warioware for the GBA uses it.
Imagine a Mario game where Mario could actually jump higher if you gave the controller an upward thrust when pressing the jump button. Sure, something like that could get annoying if over-used but, in moderation, it could make the game feel much more interactive. I'm sure Miyamoto could think of dozens if not hundereds of other ways to utilize the technology in a Mario game as well. Of course there'd be much more traditional uses for the technology. Like using the controller as a steering wheel or flight yolk, essentially allowing the standard console controller to do many of the things an expensive accessory would.

The fact that Miyamoto keeps claiming the game is going to be very different from previous Mario games further leads me to believe it will go to Revolution. It makes sense since Revolution is supposed to introduce a new way of playing games.

Honestly, I want any good Mario adventure game Nintendo can give me. That's why I again suggest Paper Mario 2 to people who want another Mario game on the GameCube. It's not strictly a platformer, but it's definitely still a Mario game.

Oh, so I assume you didn't buy a Super Nintendo too even though many of the games began with "Super"?

I would be pleased by any Mario game Miyamoto is going to make, I have a blind trust about his talent. (I know, fanboyism to the extreme! if he releases a piece of crap Ill probably like it >_< )

I forgave Mario 64 for not being close enough to the old 2d Mario Bros games. It didnt have Luigi or a playable Yoshi. It dumped the powerups they had used for over ten years in the games. There was too much collecting useless items. But it was an orginal Mario title and it was the first real 3d game and it was a quality 3d game technically. But since Mario 64 established the technical qualifications for camera control, analog control, jumping in 3d, and other standards shouldn't Mario now be worried about being less of a 3d game and more of a Mario game that happens to be in 3d. Maybe the solution is for the series to go back to the 2d but that could look bad for Nintendo to back away from 3d which they are credited for creating. I don't think it has to go back to 2d, but I wouldn't mind.
Paper Mario is awesome. It brings back old themes and characters. The graphics are great. I'm not a fan of it getting gimicky with the paper thing (paper airplane?). They think it is cute to make fun of the game in the game but it is just distracting, though I appreciate their ability to laugh at themselves. I can't wait to play it. While the 3d games have lost track of their roots Paper Mario takes full advantage of its past.

i liked the super mario very much and im still playing (unfortunly on an emulator) but dont forget about super mario kart : double dash!!
that is a good game also,right?
the new mario should have the old power ups an themes AND the 2d game-play, still mario 64 was good but not good enough, and luigi should come as gameplay too, or like an alternative toad and the princess in mario bros 2, throw away those mario party's , im wtf is that? its a stupid board game!...but there is coming a new mario only Miyamato said there a problems with the controller and mario AND Luigi will be much mature then before, not too mature like killing hookers in GTA3, but im hope for some screenshots bcuz we have no E3 in Holland =(
btw im new

What was it that made SM64 not good enough in your opinion? And who and when was it said that the next Mario title would be in any way "mature"?
Oh and welcome to the forums!

Miyamoto: Well, by that I didn't mean that Mario is going to be the game for adults, but rather I wanted to say more specifically about the game, is that the character is going to look less childish. I'm not saying that Mario is going to be like Conker's Bad Fur Day. You have seen Luigi's image in yesterday's footage, and I think that you would agree that Luigi is less childish now, that's the kind of thing that I was talking about when I referred to Mario becoming more matured.

Ah. Well then thanks for that info, somehow it slipped passed me...like my life. Anyway it's nice that you bothered to find the source. I appreciate it.
So by more mature, it's meant to be less childish looking. I guess I can handle that. Just so long as Mario doesn't run any hookers over with his car.
