Super Mario Galaxy 3 Hinted For Nintendo’s Next Console

Super Mario Galaxy

Shigeru Miyamoto has hinted at a Super Mario Galaxy 3 for Nintendo’s upcoming console, the NX. Miyamoto said that he and Yoshiaki Koizumi, director of Super Mario Galaxy, are “always looking to challenge Galaxy and do another 3D action title.” It’s been more than five years since the last Super Mario Galaxy game, but that’s apparently more due to a lack of resources rather than a lack of will.

“[A new Mario Galaxy] is always in discussion,” Miyamoto said in an interview with Eurogamer. “But even with Mario 64 there was a lot of feedback about motion sickness with the 3D or maybe us making it too difficult.” Miyamoto said Nintendo wanted to focus on games that were accessible to everybody, which is why the company made new Super Mario Bros. titles instead. “Going back to our roots and making New Super Mario Bros., anyone can play that,” he said.

Nintendo’s recent Super Mario 3D Land and Super Mario 3D World were an attempt to combine the two game styles. “We’re always thinking, is there a middle ground where people who do enjoy the 3D worlds of Galaxy and those who enjoy New Super Mario Bros. can both enjoy it? We’re always looking at those opportunities,” Miyamoto said.

“On the other hand, me and Koizumi-san… are always looking to challenge Galaxy and do another 3D action title,” Miyamoto said. But it all comes down to resources. “However we can’t make so many games at once in parallel.”

So might we see a new Galaxy game for the Wii U? “[The] Wii U’s definitely good enough in terms of hardware performance, it is more the workload of the team,” Miyamoto said. “If you look at Star Fox Zero, the TV and GamePad are both rendered in 60 frames, so in total that’s 120 frames. It’s really just a matter of the CPU speed at this point.”

That’s where Nintendo’s upcoming NX console comes in. “As the hardware technology gets better and advances, I think there will be a lot of opportunity for both options,” Miyamoto said. Reading between the lines, it’s likely many of Nintendo’s developers have been assigned to work on the NX, leaving less of them to work on Wii U games. If there is to be another Super Mario Galaxy game, it’s most likely Nintendo will want to save it up for the NX.

ReFantazio Takes a Different Approach to Romance, Setting Itself Apart from the Persona Games

Atlus’ highly anticipated RPG, Metaphor: ReFantazio, appears to incorporate familiar systems reminiscent of the developer’s acclaimed Persona series. The game features turn-based battles that heavily rely on exploiting enemy weaknesses. Additionally, players have the ability to summon warrior spirits during combat. However, the most significant aspect of this game, which will be discussed in this article, is the bonding system. Through this system, players can spend time with important characters and gain deeper insights into their personalities and stories.

In contrast to the Persona games, the bonding system ends at that point. Unfortunately, players will be unable to pursue romantic relationships with their beloved waifus, which may come as a disappointment to those who have developed strong feelings for Hulkenberg, the party’s charismatic red-haired elven knight.

According to Siliconera, the absence of romance came up during a recent question and answer session. Atlus emphasized the continued opportunity to develop meaningful relationships with your allies while also introducing additional narratives through substories. In addition, familiarizing yourself with the supporting characters will grant you access to new archetypes, which serve as the game’s character classes.

In the Persona games, romance is not obligatory; rather, it serves as a means to customize your playthrough. However, it is quite unexpected that Metaphor has chosen not to pursue such a venture, considering the significant amount of discussion it typically generates!

Were you anticipating any romantic elements in Metaphor? If you’re not satisfied with your pre-order, feel free to share your thoughts in the comments section below.

It appears that many

are eagerly anticipating the launch of the highly anticipated PS5 exclusive, Stellar Blade. Shift Up, the developer, has shared a lengthy video showcasing the “secrets” found in the physical box of the game for PS5. From what we can gather, these secrets include a reversible cover/dust jacket and a download code for cosmetic items.

We must clarify that while we do appreciate the variant cover, it may be more appealing than the game’s standard art. However, it is not something we would typically classify as a “secret.”. However, what’s interesting is that Shift Up has confirmed through the comments section that this will be the case in all regions. Additionally, the visually striking action RPG will remain uncensored worldwide.

It’s refreshing to witness a developer going the extra mile for physical collectors, and it’s evident that the developer is determined to leave a favorable mark in the console realm. Stellar Blade is set to make its highly anticipated debut this Friday, April 26th, exclusively on the PS5.
