>Not really a Mario gameHow did Nintendo get away with this?
>Not really a Need for Speed gameHow did Electronic Arts get away with this?
>>12116228Well at least they didn't steal another game, change the graphics and call it Need For Speed
>>12116221Its better than Mario 1.
>>12116221It was a common thing, like margarine was sold as butter. There was no social media - people didn't knew any better.
>>12116232And 3
Did you know
>>12116243
>>12116221its a glorified rom hack, just like lost levels. neither are mainline or canon. smb3 is the real smb2
Donkey Donkey Panic
>>12116230That's exactly what they did with V-Rally.
>>12116221It was a Mario game, it had Mario characters in it and the story framing device was all Mario.
>>12116252In my time, people were calling Super Mario Land the "real" SMB2.
>Mario title>Mario characters>Mario story>Mario gameplay>Mario devs
>>12116221SMB1 wasn't a Mario game
>>12116221> Donkey Kong Jr was not like Donkey Kong (NES)> Zelda 2 was not like Zelda 1 (NES)> Castlevania 2 was not like Castlevania 1 (NES)> Rainbow Island Bubble Bobble 2 was not like Bubble Bobble 1 (NES)> Gambare Goemon 2 was not like Gambare Goemon 1 (NESWe can go on and on for that time. They "got away with it" because there was no rule to it. You didn't live it, you were not there 3+ decades ago.
>>12116973the point isn't about the gameplay being different, is that mario 2 is reskinned doki doki panic. it literally isn't a mario game.
>>12116982> Miyamoto game> Graphics from the Mario team> Music from the Mario team> Bones came from early Mario idea> Years later all baddies in it used for decades of Mario gamesGo to sleep
>>12116221Super Mario Bros. 2 USA (Mario Madness) is not just a Mario game as well as the logical continuation to SMB1. It's the MOST Mario game.Super Mario Bros. 3 is the LEAST Mario game since it returns to copying SMB1's success breaking the established formula of the Mario franchise where each title is brand new and innovative. It's just the first title with extra fluff>Same old coin blocks? No, they can have MULTIPLE coins now>Mushrooms? They can turn LEFT now (wow)>Goombas? They can FLY nowMario 1 + pointless additions = Mario 3Not only did Super Mario Bros. 3 rip off Super Mario Bros. 1, it also took the plot straight from Super Mario Bros. 2 USA! ("everything was just a dream" becomes "everything was just theatre"). Does this game have anything original?2 will always be my favorite because it reinvented the entire series. 3 will always be my least favorite because it undid everything 2 did.
>>12116520well yeah, didnt it come out before smb3? thats valid.
>>12117061>>Same old coin blocks? No, they can have MULTIPLE coins nowThat was in SMB1, you fake fan.
>>12116221>standalone hard type map packhow did nintendo get away with this?
>>12116973>> Gambare Goemon 2 was not like Gambare Goemon 1 (NES??? But it was.
>>12117094Only in the west. OP and his kind were just clueless kids who only have seniority going for them.
>>12116221SM2US is a real Mario game, nerd. Pic related
With their hands LOL LMAO
>>12116221Doki Doki Panic on its own is a Disk System exclusive based on a one-time Japanese TV special - getting retconned into a Mario game was the best thing that could happen to it from a commercial standpoint (and not just because they added a run button).Also >>12116984
>MAMA LUIGI?wtf mario is a chud?!
>>12116321*Donkey Donkey Picnic
>>12117308Probably meant Mr. Goemon, the arcade game that predated Ganbare Goemon.
>>12116221>How did Nintendo get away with this?Nintendo was a simple formula. target the family marketing niche that McDonalds for example had eploited, hang your products off kid friendly and make them simple enough for small children and then HAMER HAMMER HAMMER brand marketing around a limited table of frachise characters into the minds of small children which is where the phrase brandslop comes from. Shit like Mario is about hammering in a brand logo into the minds of kids repeatedly
>>12121643Why does OP think this is some sort of great crime or betrayal, and why do you think that any of the shit you barfed out has anything to do with that? It's a fucking videogame.
they got away with it because smb2 kicks ass
>>12116232>>12116241True
It was probably because they had nintendo devs helping work on the original? or so I've heard
