New Super Mario Game Potentially Leaked by Nintendo Insider

This October, it will be five years since Super Mario Odyssey — the most recent Super Mario game — was released on Nintendo Switch. According to rumors, a sequel is in the works, but so far nothing has come of these rumors. That said, in the meantime, a new rumor has surfaced, and if it’s […]

comicbook.com

The leak comes the way of well-known Nintendo leaker, Nate the Hate, a source that like every "industry insider" has gotten things wrong in the past, like the Nintendo Switch Pro, but has also relayed information that went to be proved accurate. During a recent episode of their YouTube podcast, they relayed word that there is "interest" in a Super Mario Musou game. The catch is Nate the Hate doesn't know if the game is in development at Koei Tecmo. All they've heard is that there's interest in making such a game.

I guess he got what he wanted.

Edit: Unless this "interest" is the same interest that was found in articles a year ago (such as the one in this post), and this hasn't been signed off on yet. If that's the case, Nate's "leak" is way out of date.

 

[Omnipunctual Godot]

Ah, why not. Could be fun.

 

[GigaBowser]

This guys predictions are worse than Pachter.

 

[THE DUCK]

Earthshattering, who would have guessed Nintendo was working on a new Mario game. Wow.

 

[Barakov]

This guys predictions are worse than Pachter.

 

[jaysius]

Fuck no, no more IPs need to be dragged through the shit with a MUSOU treatment.

 

[Jennings]

I loved Hyrule Warriors and consider it the best experience I had on the WiiU. I'll certainly play a Mario version, but I demand it get more than the 10FPS Musou: Age of Calamity gets on the Switch.

 

[Camreezie]

Isnt this the guy with the terrible track record

 

[Woopah]

It's not a leak if it's just something he heard someone wanted to do.comicbook.com always writes these terrible, clickbait articles.

 

[Heimdall_Xtreme]

In first place

Why a Mario Musou?

 

[Dick Jones]

Whoever mentioned Mario Musou in Nintendo HQ needs to be sacked, then rehired so they can be sacked again.

[yurinka]

Wow, what a total surprise! I never would have guessed that Nintendo was going to publish another Mario game! He must be a super insider.

Now seriously, I know Nintendo has a gazillion of Mario series and spinoffs, and that they put Mario universe everywhere and that Koei Tecmo make a gazillion Musou games of everything using many IPs, but I don't see a Mario Musou.

 

[Batiman]

Musou games are trash. The most brain dead genre ever created. The idea itself sounds cool but it barely evolved since ps2 days.

 

[Captain Toad]

I loved Hyrule Warriors and consider it the best experience I had on the WiiU.

Man, what kind of crap were YOU playing on Wii U? The Wii U had a lot of great games. Hyrule Warriors wasn't one.

Everything.

No way do I want that.

[20cent]

The only good thing about Musou games is the universe or IP they stick onto them.

The "only" good things about Mario games are their gameplay.

 

[SNG32]

Honestly I’m down for this if they have Mario, Luigi, Wario, Waluigi, Toad, Peach, Daisy, Rosaline and Toad as playable characters.

 

[Kiddo Cabbusses]

In first place

Why a Mario Musou?

Yeah, seriously, how the heck are you going to mix platforming gameplay with Musou? I can't recall any prior musou where I actually enjoyed jumping for any reason other than for dodging enemy attacks or a specific attack combo. A Mario game with bad jumping and bad platforming? Naaah.

Pokemon Musou would make way more sense as a logical followup to Pokemon Conquest.

 

[StateofMajora]

This is one of the dumbest predictions i’ve ever heard from an “insider”

 

[MagiusNecros]

The only good thing about Musou games is the universe or IP they stick onto them.

The "only" good things about Mario games are their gameplay.

So basically it will be the best Musou game then?

 

[MAtgS]

Fuck no, no more IPs need to be dragged through the shot with a MUSOU treatment.

IDK, Power Rangers musou would actually make a lot of sense.

 

[TastyPastry]

imagine a 3D mario that goes back to dinosaur island and the old smw aesthethic

 

[Oddvintagechap]

a rumor of interest, that has already been expressed publicly.

how rumoring.

 

[Bonfires Down]

Are Musou games actually fun? They look like they would get old in 5 minutes.

 

[Davevil]

What i want from a Mario game
What i got from Nintendo

Yeah. And he's not only a Nintendo, but also Sony and Microsoft insider. Sources everywhere.

Marín, linkle and lana make the value of Hyrule warriors .

 

[Notabueno]

Usually I would say no, fuck no, stop fucking destroying yourself Nintendo and make a goddamn Odyssey 2.

But if it's anything like Bowser's Fury Island? If both Nintendo and Tecmo are on it and it's a Mario platformer with a Musou twist?

Holly shit.

 

[DonkeyPunchJr]

A couple days ago I had my every-four-years “let’s see if I enjoy musou games” moment so I downloaded the Hyrule Warriors demo….

Shit put me to sleep in 5 minutes. Good lord these games are fucking boring and terrible. It’s like if you took an ARPG, then made the combat as bland and easy as possible, then removed everything that was even remotely interesting about character growth.

It’s like the Monopoly of video games. Nobody likes playing it, they just get tricked into buying it because they like the IP they slapped on top of it.

 

[Icymanipulator]

I’d like to see where they go after Odyssey. Personally I liked 3D World and Bowsers Fury better. I’d like to see them expand on that idea. I really liked the cat theme and the open world. Bowser as an ever present element on the map made exploring really fun.

Rumor: New Super Mario Game Details Leak, Will Supposedly Have 4 Playable Characters

A leaker known for leaking Nintendo news claims to reveal new information on a rumored 2D Super Mario Bros. game that's supposedly in development.

gamerant.com

According to the latest rumors, a new 2D Super Mario game that's supposedly in development for the Nintendo Switch will have four playable characters. Nintendo has not released a completely new main series Super Mario game since 2017's Super Mario Odyssey, and the last time a main series 2D Super Mario game released was New Super Mario Bros. U in 2012 (discounting Super Mario Maker 2 and the mobile game Super Mario Run).

Zippo is a leaker who specializes in leaking Nintendo-related news. Their latest blog post claims that the 2D Super Mario game should be nearing the end of its development cycle and that it will star Mario, Luigi, Peach, and Toad as the playable characters. Zippo pointed out that this would be the first time Peach has been playable in a 2D Super Mario game since Super Mario Bros. 2 on the NES.

According to Zippo, this new 2D Super Mario game will be released in 2023 or 2024. If that's true, then it's reasonable to assume that a reveal could happen in the relatively near future, but Nintendo has not announced any kind of Direct or presentation at this time. Needless to say, fans should take this information with a massive grain of salt and certainly keep their expectations in check until an official reveal comes from Nintendo.

 

[N0S]

This better be the best looking 2D game of alltime.

 

[PlayedStation]

I hope they will get this out next year to compliment the movie.

Bowser's Fury was the last Mario game, released in 2021.

 

[Badlucktroll]

I would love a metroid vania mario that is similar to super mario bros 3

 

[-Zelda-]

I mean, ignoring this leak, I am surprised they have not made one of these already with all the characters they could pull from in this franchise.

Isn't Zippo one of the least credible leakers around, or am I thinking of someone else?

Isnt this the guy with the terrible track record

But he said the game would be 4 players. Who could’ve predicted that?
