    Was it? The New SMB line feels more like traditional hop n bop Mario platforming with some graphical polish and a couple updated power ups while Odyssey is more of a GTA style Mario which I would argue is in the modern style.
  2. JamesRobot
    I can see the argument for both sides of the coin. If it's a new game, it's automatically modern despite the platform. If it's released for a vintage console, it's automatically in the retro "style." Additionally, what about new titles of vintage IP? Metroid Dread feels retro because it sticks to the established formula and is primarily 2D (or 2.5D, whatevs). But Mario Odyssey very much feels modern because it reinvents the core mechanics and gameplay.

    If that's the case then I'm closer to 50/50.

    I'm about 75% retro if we're including new NES homebrew in that. I'm pretty proud of myself for embracing some modern since we got a PS5 this past Christmas (at least to a small degree). I also play a little Switch. Does Metroid Dread count as modern or retro?

    Didn't we do this one already? Maybe that was on NA... Just like any other meal, I will eat the sides along with the main course. Though I usually start with a mouth full of fries before my first burger bite.

    I'm going to play Super Mario Bros with my kid, let him be Mario, hit pause over the first pit in 1-1, then dominate the rest of the game as Luigi, put up a 1 life clear and turn off the Nintendo. Luigi FTW!

    Meh. Game-play-wise it's better than Dr Mario but it's got nothing on the music.

    Mando and Rogue One both have lightsabers. Hell, Darth Vader is in Rogue One. Lightsabers= Star Wars confirmed.

    Both pretty meh. I was stoked to revisit these when the DVD double feature was released some years ago and it was a let down. They are okay if you've got any nostalgia for them but they will not live up to your expectations if you haven't seen them since you were a kid. Also, no lightabers. So they're not really Star Wars movies anyway.

    Killer for sure. I can't quite give it the 10. I've only played it once or twice. Probably due for another go round.
