Man I like that picture. I like the colors of their new shells.

Lemmy is really puny in 3-D. And they changed Iggy's hair.

Interesting.

Not sure anyone's mentioned this, but Iggy's hair now looks like a turnip sprout.

Yanking on it would remove a turnip from his SKULL, or DECAPITATE HIM.

Iggy's brain = turnip?

Now that would be an interesting way to defeat a boss. Pull their hair until their brain comes out.

It's Mortal Kombat.

Mario Kombat?

So I've heard that the case for this game will be coloured red, is that true? Because that's going to look really ugly amidst the sea of white-cased Wii games. It's bad enough the Lego games have yellow spines.

It's a good way to make your product stand out at Christmas time.

Because being a new Mario game isn't enough of a selling point?

Guitar Smasher · « **Reply #560 on:** October 26, 2009, 11:27:16 PM »

Of course it's the main selling point, however parents might not be aware of its existence (assuming they miss the advertising somehow). It'll be the first game they see on display, and hey it's Mario! - instant purchase.

Stratos · « **Reply #561 on:** October 26, 2009, 11:29:57 PM »

Star Wars Force Unleashed has a yellow spine as well and Geometry Wars Galaxies has an all black spine.

I think it would be cool to get certain games with special colored cases. I miss how you could get the special colored carts on NES and N64 like the Zeldas, Battletanx, Turok and others.

Does anyone remember that petition that was floating around asking Nintendo/Rare to give Perfect Dark a silver cart?

Mop it up · « **Reply #562 on:** October 26, 2009, 11:35:51 PM »

Well I think that red case is ugly and it isn't going to get on my shelf. I'm going to get a white case to replace it with.

I think all games from LucasArts have a yellow spine.

As someone with OCD those coloured cases bother me to no end. I hate how many different coloured Nintendo 64 cartridges there are, I almost don't want to put them in with the rest of the games but my desire for alphabetical order overpowers my desire for like colours. At least with the NES Zeldas I can justify putting them both on the end since both have a large "Zelda" on top. The only coloured SNES cartridge I have is Doom which I really need to buy some cheap sports game so I can put the Doom board in it and put a Doom label on it.

Stratos · « **Reply #563 on:** October 26, 2009, 11:48:53 PM »

I think there was at least one non-Lucasarts game with a yellow spine, but I can't remember which that was. I quick look in my collection doesn't reveal it to me. TT games can't count. What of the LEGO Batman or Rock Band games?

Can I have your extra colored case if you do switch it out, Mop it up? I like them.

Mop it up · « **Reply #564 on:** October 26, 2009, 11:52:53 PM »

I don't know if I'd trust you with a red-coloured cartridge which says "Doom" on the label but is actually Madden Football '96. What is stopping you from selling it claiming it as Doom? I don't want to be a part of that scam.

TJ Spyke · « **Reply #565 on:** October 27, 2009, 12:00:54 AM »

It doesn't matter to me, and i've never gotten people who bitched about boxart (especially people who say "I won't buy the Player's Choice/Greatest Hits/Platinum Hits version of a game"). However, I think this would be the first Wii game to not have the standard White label on the front.

I don't care about the SNES one. I meant the NSMBW case if it does turn out to be red. I like different colored plastic cases like that.

I actually have a Bugs Bunny Crazy Castle 2 for GB case that is currently housing Pokemon Silver. I found the chip on the tennis court back in highschool and my sister gave me a game she stopped playing to stick the chip in and see what it was. I had to reposition the battery so it could save, but I got a free Pokemon game out of it, and it was perfect because I already had Gold, so getting Silver that way was great.

I think more people get upset about when you have the non-player's choice box with a pc sticker attached to it. The last time I bought a pc game it had a sticker on the box since the price drop was in effect but they hadn't run out of old stock yet.

It's a collector's thing, so it can't really be explained. The thing with the Player's Choice and Greatest hits games is that collectors want the original release, and sometimes the version that isn't Player's Choice or Greatest Hits is less common.

Oh I'm sorry, I misunderstood. I'm still going to keep the case for collection reasons, I have to keep all original packaging.

The ONM UK question & answer articles reveal that you will fight each Koopa Kid twice: one in a fortress and again in a castle. They also change their fighting styles for the second battle apparently, sort of like Punch-Out Title Defence, which is neat. There are four other bosses elsewhere according to them, though they won't say who. Sounds as though the boss fights could be the best in recent years for a Mario game.

I expect to die many times thanks to inept co-op buddies. This will be great.

Four Other bosses? ... from SMB 2? maybe? hopefully?

The 4 characters that were supposed to be playable: Peach, Daisy, Baby Mario, Baby Luigi

Stratos · « **Reply #573 on:** October 27, 2009, 03:15:53 PM »

Well, there are several options for other bosses.

Birdo, Wart and Mouser from SMB2 USA and also the Renzor from SMW.

How's that sound for guesses?
