>stop playing with each other
That's the entire point. Nobody was playing with each other, except those five people. What does that say about the general, do you think?
You cannot say /smbg/ played together constantly when it was actually an extremely small group of people. You are outright lying to that Anon.

Many people joined and left before the games ended. You would know if you weren't shitposting all the time and joined.

This is a small general, idiot. And the question was "Any of you dudes" play? Yes we played for multiple months straight. There wasn't a lie there you shitter.

Honestly surprised SM64 Co Op games ever got off the ground in the first place. Well, I guess they barely did. Every single time anyone has ever suggested /smbg/ do some kind of group activity it gets shot down. To the point that people don't even bother anymore. When's the last time someone tried to get a game of Mario Kart going, for instance? I remember when another anon was trying to get people to play classic Mario games with some browser based multiplayer emulator. Absolutely zero takers. And let's not forget the people who complain whenever the /vg/ cup rolls around. How about the collab pictures? Only one ever got done, then any calls for more got shot down as "/kdg/ shitposters invading."
I recall a few people having a bit of a fit when SM64 Co Op information was added to the OP, which of course has now been taken down anyway.
I'm willing to bet any of the people posting right now never actually joined a game of SM64.

I just realized it's kind of weird knowing they weren't in Banjo-Pilot or were any shown at all when the game was Donkey Kong Pilot
>>
>>
>>555994141
Diddy Kong Pilot, you mean. But yeah, weird that there was no sign of them. Hell, at one point the game was going to have a bunch of Mario characters.
Taj was seen in Donkey Kong Racing previews, but that's about it.

I hate when people say "mario is freedom", that doesn't make any fucking sense.
If anything mario should be hope, mario is a everyman doing incredible stuff, being a fat newyork rat and italian doesn't limit him when fighting magic beyond his comprehension because he has believes (hopes) in himself, that hope mario have spread around the cast like luigi for example, luigi is a faggot but mario has enough self confidence to push his brother into doing new things.

people rag on the new Glitzville theme for good reason. It's a damn Chinese cacophony that clashes heavily with the rest of the Glitzville themes, which were all rock and blues in the original.
>>
>>556069125
>https://www.mariowiki.com/Glitzville
>Oolong Town
Glitzville was always Chinese-themed. The remake just made it more apparent. It's not the devs' fault that Treehouse censored and changed the town name for no reason.
>>
>>556070534
That's basically irrelevant.
The original OST was far more palatable and less drowned out in instrumentation, even if you wanted to argue that the original Glitzville theme didn't fit the Chinese aesthetic.
And again, it's overall more cohesive because every track in the level (main theme, pit theme, mystery theme, grubba's theme, rawk hawk's theme, macho grubba's theme and macho grubba's fight) are all cohesively rock/blues inspired.
with Glitzville in the remake, it bounces around genres too much, so you have Grubba's bluesy theme playing after the most ching-chong-ping-pong erhu in the world.

Really miss my nigga

>>556062225
Because some negro thought "hmmm what if I shove the bombastic instrument heavy style of Shinigami King and Sticker Fart into the TTYD OST? And make up a bunch of new songs for TENSE and SERIOUS moments?"
>>
>>
>>
>>556097650
Did I say it didn't?
It had its own distinct style of electronic and synth sounds. Shoving real instruments, adding more instruments that were on the original and even adding new sections after a loop is dumb.
Literally compare Petal Meadows and you'll quickly notice how much more cluttered the Switch one sounds.

I know, and I think that's a shame. It would play into their strenghts significantly better, but I know ultimately Nintendo was interested in making a movie for the sake of advertising their video game business instead of being something actually well-made.

>only Mario can beat Mario
>>
>>
>>
>>556245542
>Mario as an IP
Isn't that dishonest though? Mario has sold a lot of games but he also releases a lot of games.
Minecraft selling over four times the top selling Mario game did means that Mario has been beaten. Same for GTAV selling nearly 3 times as much as the top selling Mario game.
When you consider how some people have bought a good few dozen Mario games over the years it means that Mario's total sales numbers should be divided by a couple dozen if you want to compare it singular games like GTA or Minecraft.
>>
>>
>>
>>556258342
>unlike GTA and Minecraft he does not require that you work for him 24 hours a day, 7 days in a week to make the most of his games
Considering the amount of grinding people do in speedruns of his games to the point where people can make careers off of replaying the same Mario game over and over again, and the time trial grinding in Mario Kart, this is false.
>>
>>556246614
>Mario has sold a lot of games but he also releases a lot of games.
...Yes that's how it works in IP, idiot. People buy Mario's games the most officially and proven. People could just not buy those released games, but the masses still do.
Steve Minecraft, the GTA V trio, Miis, and Arthur Morgan lost. Cope.

They all outsold the most sold Mario game meaning that they won. It doesn't matter that Mario consistently sells less but releases more games. If I released 1 billion games in the Mega Fuckigi franchise that all got one sale each that wouldn't make Fuckigi the king of video games.
>>
>>556262410
>Mario doesn't ask them to do it
He does in Mario Kart. He wants the players to get the lowest time possible in time trials. Odyssey was also built around appealing to speedrunners by expanding Mario's moveset to be closer to the speedrun game.

Didn't read your cope. Mario is still the best selling videogame franchise officially.
