Legally you can't demand someone to pay a debt in america. You can get away with not paying any money to anyone (above board that is... you on your own with underground shit and those never end well for you lolz) that is owed to them. That is what bankruptcy is. Instead society punishes you in other ways. Usually credit problems. But it's part of what makes America the home of the free. You cannot bind someone into indenture servitude of any kind and that includes monetary debt.
I doubt the story's true, anyway. Guy illegally distributes a major game to tens of thousands of people, and gets off with only a slap on the wrist? Sounds like a poorly executed publicity stunt.
@@mattpace1026 Knowing Nintendo I believe it, but I still do genuinely think its a publicity stunt on their part. I feel it was more than anything a warning to other people to not leak ROMs using him to set an example, which honestly has not worked in the slightest because basically every major nintendo release is on piracy sites a week or so before launch these days and they don't punish anyone for it anymore.
I would love to see an evolution on 2D Mario, rather than just another new super mario bros game. The original on the DS was truly a novelty, since 2D games were not very popular at the time, and this return to form was refreshing, the GBA didn't even have a new 2D mario game. But now 2D games are more popular and refined than ever, with all the indies coming out. A more fluid momentum-based approach like Rayman Legends could be awesome, or maybe a more high budget cinematic take like Donkey kong country returns, tropical freeze. I would even take a new pixel art or hand drawn 2D mario over another bland new super mario.
Of all things, Paper Mario: TTYD had one! As part of Bowser's story, you play through 2 or 3 classic Mario style stages with him. Including, of course, an underwater stage.
I always thought it was a shame that there weren't more Wii U games that took advantage of the console's core feature by letting one person play as the villains.
I love how Nathaniel occasionally acts like himself throughout this video. It shows the guys at DYKG are pretty chill when it comes to their guest narrators recording their lines.
It was super cool to see Nathaniel narrate one of these! I'd just like to make a slight correction for 14:11: the Golden Plains stage in Smash Bros. actually first appeared in Smash 3DS, not Ultimate. That's probably not what the video was trying to say, but it just sounded like it.
Miyamoto is right. No wonder I remembered Wii U New Super Mario better. The gold block was pretty dumb. I get that the series is supposed to be silly, but this is just slapping on some random for the sake of doing it.
I'm always impressed how these videos always have facts I didn't know and that y'all are able to get in contact with the actual people involved. Really high quality stuff
Actually really great series, I hate that people think it's bad just because they use the same models or whatever. The powerups, levels, and gameplay are really fresh and solid and easy to get into.
I think it’s because it went 4 games without any innovation. Level design was predictable and bland. DKCR and Tropical Freeze are leagues better in terms of recent Nintendo platformers
Sure, on their own, they're all decent platformers you can have fun with. But I think people were looking more for the level of creativity and differences between games seen in other concurrent 2D platformer Nintendo series like Kirby and DK. You can make the argument that Mario was striving to be more simple, but for the same price as those other games and without very much visual distinction it's reasonable that people would think NSMB was just lacking after the fourth one rolled around.
@@sheriffmouser7569 No, I don't. There's plenty of new enemy types, there's a new powerup that lets you glide, each game does do something different (bonus world? purpose of star coins? unlockable content?), etc.
The first two games were great. But after that, you could tell that the devs were just phoning it in. Hell, the most recent game is literally just a port with the only thing to justify the $60 price tag being New -Funky- Toadette Mode.
Also, there's the fact that they haven't touched franchises like F-Zero in years because they "can't think of any way to keep them fresh" while continue to churn out NSMB games that all feel like the same game but with different power-ups.
The Vs mode in New super mario bros ds was fricking amazing. I still have a lot of vivid memories of playing with my friends and cousins in Vs to the point that we started discovering new bugs and "exploits". We pushed that mode to the limit XD
I’ve sadly not played it, but I think it’s great. The levels are unique, the coin gimmick looks satisfying and the enemy selection is solid. Not to mention they brought back Reznor. I wish they were in more games.
VS Mode from New Super Mario Bros. DS NEEDS to make a return in the next 2D Mario game! I won't accept no for an answer on this one! This classic mode from the DS game hasn't made a comeback for over 15 years! It would also be cool if they brought back minigames from the DS games, they don't have to be touch games, but can be entirely new minigames altogether!
Weird how you didn't even mention Super Mario Run, which looks like New SMB Series and it is considered as a mainline game in the 2D Mario line by Nintendo. They did even include Peach, Yoshi and even Daisy with their special abilities.
@@kingstarscream320 Lol okay, here's the script before edits. Gotta break it up into parts because YT won't let me copy-paste the entire thing. Too long. Here's part 1: Did you know? [0] The developers of New Super Luigi U cheated to make the game easier than they wanted you to think it is. [1] Luigi U was originally released as DLC for New Super Mario Bros U, but with harder levels that only give you 100 seconds to reach the flag pole [1] -- but the devs made Luigi seconds 35% longer than Mario seconds. [7] In an interview, they said even though they're the guys who made the stages, they were having trouble beating em that quick, and worried it'd be too difficult for the fans at home. [3] They considered making all the stages shorter, or doubling the timer to 200 seconds -- but they didn't wanna redesign the whole game, and 100 was such a nice round number, so... they fudged the numbers. [4] We timed it ourselves, and the seconds in most Mario games -- including New Super Mario Bros U -- aren't real seconds. [5] Each tick is really only about three-quarters of a second. But for the Luigi DLC, they made each tick one actual second. [6] In other words, 100 Luigi seconds are equal to 135 Mario seconds -- which makes the game a lot easier than you're led to believe. [8] Not only on Wii U, but also in the Switch Deluxe edition. We recently replayed all the New Super Mario games, read a bunch of old interviews, and did some digging to find some secrets, easter eggs, and behind-the-scenes for the entire series. [9][248] We're also gonna look at the Japan-exclusive arcade entry, as well as Super Mario Run -- it might not have "New" in the title, but it's basically the series' mobile entry, so we'll cover that one too. [10] First off, let me just say -- I know these games aren't the most highly-regarded nowadays -- [44] and a lotta folks say they can't hold a candle to Mario's 3D adventures. [39] But let's get one thing clear right off the bat -- in terms of sales, the New Super games are way more popular than 3D Mario. [40] The first one sold over 30 million copies [41] -- which is more than the entire Metroid and F-Zero franchises combined. And the sequel on Wii sold another 30 million. [42] Everyone and their mom played these games. With those kinda numbers, you might be wondering why they haven't made a new one in almost a decade. [43] We'll get to that later, but first let's get into some trivia. [38] For most people, when they think of Mario, they think of Shigeru Miyamoto. [203][246] But when it comes to the New Super series, they should really be thinking of another guy [204] -- Takashi Tezuka, who's basically been in charge of 2D Mario since the Super Nintendo. [205] According to Miyamoto: "Mario was created not only by myself, but also with Mr. Tezuka. I am kind of shy accepting all of the compliments myself all the time." [201] / "Tezuka's sort of my right hand man at Nintendo. And he's responsible for New Super Mario Bros. We talk a lot about the game, but basically he's in charge." [202] One thing that might surprise fans of the New Super games is why they have that distinctive art style. [207] Every 2D Mario that came before was made out of 2D sprites, but New Super Mario was more like 2.5D, and used 3D models as well as sprites made from pre-rendered 3D models. [208] All the sequels used that style as well -- at this point, it's become the series' iconic look. [209] But it wasn't actually an artistic choice -- according to Tezuka, it was mostly just because it was easier. [211] Back when the first game launched, he told Nintendo Power: "[We chose that style because it] makes certain types of expression easier. We can rotate characters, make them bigger, make them smaller, etc. [206] Those types of things are more difficult with 2D sprites. Also, current development tools tend to favor 3D graphics." [210]
Part 2: After the game's release, Nintendo ran into a little trouble in the European Union. [213] Their ratings board originally said New Super Mario was acceptable for ages 3 and up, like pretty much every Mario game. [314] But it later got bumped up to a more restrictive rating. That was all thanks to one of the bonus minigames, Picture Poker, where you play five-card draw and bet coins in a casino. [212] Europe said if you're gonna gamble with Luigi, you're gonna have to be at least 12. New Super Mario Bros on DS was originally supposed to have two-player co-op -- a few screenshots can be seen in an issue of Nintendo Power printed about six months before the game hit store shelves. The magazine says: "New Super Mario Bros features a two-player co-op mode -- a first for the series. Not content simply to keep Luigi out of the limelight, Mario now uses his brother as a human shield. Maybe next time Luigi should leave his hotshot sibling to rot in the haunted mansion." Well that's pretty much what happened, because co-op ended up getting cut, and replaced with a small versus mode with only five stages. [59] You can play single-player as Luigi with a simple code, [34] but he has the exact same physics as Mario -- no high jump or anything -- so it's just a cosmetic difference. [36] Gaming press reported seeing an early build where Bowser was playable as well -- possibly as a reward for beating the game -- but it didn't make it into the final game. [255] That idea for full-on co-op eventually made its way into New Super Mario Bros Wii but instead of just two or three characters, it had four -- Mario, Luigi, Ala-Gold the yellow Toad, and Bucken-Berry the blue Toad. [45] Although we should note those Toad names are contentious -- they're commonly used by fans, but the Super Mario Wiki refuses to acknowledge them. [259] Those names come from a Destructoid article claiming a Nintendo of America employee shared them off-camera, but some fans thought the article was a joke. So we checked in with Destructoid's author for more details, [257] and he said they were nicknames used by some members of the Japanese Mario team, but Miyamoto made it clear that he didn't want those Toads to have names, ever. [258] So whether they're really named Ala-Gold and Bucken-Berry, we'll leave that up to you to decide. [256] Regardless, all four characters controlled identically and didn't have unique physics or abilities. [46] Other characters like Wario and Waluigi were considered, but fans would've expected them to have special skills -- and Nintendo didn't wanna do that. [47] According to Miyamoto: "Mario and Luigi are the same as always, of course, and suggestions for the other two characters included Wario and Waluigi, Toad, and Princess Peach. The thing is that with Wario he'd need to have a fart attack, [49] Peach would have to be able to fly with her skirt, and so on. [50] With this game we wanted every character to play the same way." And I mean, okay Miyamoto, I suppose that does keep everyone on a more even playing field... but c'mon. [51] It ain't e-sports -- it's a party game. Peach flying and Wario farting would've been way better than two Toads. [52] After Mario Wii was already finished, the devs kept on playing it for fun, and during their play sessions they came up some ideas for a Challenge Mode. [11][250] But it was too late to add it into the game, and DLC wasn't really a thing back then. [250] They still wanted to share those challenges with fans though, so they posted them on Nintendo's official Japanese website. [12] There were a total of 89 challenges, all ranked from one to five stars -- like finishing levels with zero points, self-imposed limitations like winning with mini-Mario, [13] and speedrun times for every stage. [14] Nintendo released the challenge list in English too, but for some reason they later deleted it. [16] They also banned that webpage from the Internet Archive, so it's completely wiped off the internet with no way to find it. [21] Lucky for us though, one of our viewers printed it out on a piece of paper about a decade ago and sent us pictures -- so here they are if you're curious to see what all they were, or if you're a hardcore fan who thinks you've got what it takes to complete them. [15] Having to get those challenges off a website wasn't exactly ideal though -- which is why the devs built them directly into the next game, New Super Mario Bros U, [17] as a separate mode available right from the home screen. [20] There's actually less of them -- Mario Wii had 89 challenges, while Mario U only has 67. But they take place on their own custom courses, so it's definitely a more fleshed-out experience. [18] This situation of supplemental content being online instead of in the game itself was actually reversed for Hint Movies -- they were included in Mario Wii, but only on the internet for Mario U. [229] In case you don't remember, if you go to Peach's Castle in Mario Wii, you can watch videos that teach you how to do Super Skills, speedruns, and secrets. [223] There's some really tricky techniques in there -- so tricky in fact that some fans thought they were tool-assisted or made by bots. [224] But it was actually Nintendo's debuggers, with the director and other high-level staff breathing down their necks to make sure they did everything perfect. [225] Every time they went through a pipe, they had to go right down the middle; [226] if there were a group of coins floating in the air, they either had to skip them for speed or grab em all. [228] Only getting some was unacceptable, and meant they'd have to reset and start over. The debuggers replayed again and again until all 65 Hint Movies were absolutely flawless. [229] They did something similar for Mario U, but instead of Peach's Castle, Nintendo put all the Hint Movies on the game's RUclips channel. [230]
10:02 I actually played this game! They had it in the local Fun Factory here in Hawaii! I’m pretty sure it was in Japanese so I had no clue what to do, but I did hit the jackpot once while it was there, I thought it was pretty fun! And no, I haven’t been to Vegas nor do I gamble, so it wasn’t a gateway for me as a kid😂
I feel like this newly revealed discrepancy between Mario seconds and Luigi seconds has massive implications for the study of relativity and of physics as a whole.
Did you know? The title "New Super Mario Bros." is actually a lie, as the Mario Bros featured in the games, Mario and Luigi, are the same characters from the original game.
I'd always assumed that the visual gimmick of NSMB was entirely because SM64DS had already released at the time and they just wanted to reuse assets. Obviously a lot of assets are made from scratch, but some others are definitely in the flavor of SM64DS specifically.
Honestly James story is Soo interesting. If he hadn’t gotten caught. Leaking a full game 2 weeks earlier would be legendary although scummy af. His punishment is actually VERY TAME. I mean Nintendo goes CRAZY over just fan games. I’m surprised they didn’t just absolutely deny him the right to live lmao
Yeah, that part tends to get downplayed in the story - that it was a bad thing for him to do. Nintendo's got a lot of positives and negatives with the community, and I'd even argue they're too tough on fan games but the relationship only works if they don't have to be spending a lot of effort fighting the community over stuff like pirates. Getting his stuff back was amazing actually, pretty classy, but legit crime committed there and not like it was a mistake.
They should make Wario and Walugi bad guys in one of these games. And if you choose either Mario or Luigi to play as, you save either Peach or Daisy. Give those characters some love, since fans talk about them a lot.
I still desperately wish that Nintendo would produce "New Super Mario All-Stars" - a fully revamped & modernized version of the SNES collection. It would be great to see overhauled visuals and improvements to the overall presentation (which can give a stronger connection to the series and the numerous ways it has been expanded upon). But also, it would be interesting to see how the old SNES and NES games could be improved - maybe with new content in the form of extra levels.
Have you ever played some of the New Super Mario Bros games with just the mini mushroom? Once you learn how to use it properly, it lets you skip over entire levels with ease. The mini mushroom in New Super Mario Bros. U is particularly interesting as not only does it make your jumps floatier, but you can also hover in the air for a very long time with midair twirls, perform a spin jump akin to that of the spin jump in Super Mario Sunshine (as it's the highest jump in the game), platform on water as if it were a platform, and run up walls. The downside is that you die in one hit and have to ground pound enemies to hurt them. This single power up recontextualizes the way you play New Super Mario Bros. U, making for an almost entirely different game mode! Just reach the flagpole with the last two digits of the timer being 66 and keep doing so, for a mini mushroom mode! Weirdly enough, this won't work until after you beat the first world of the game! Perhaps the developers didn't want to grant you access to such an advanced power up so early in the game, which is why you have to finish the first world in order to obtain it at all.
NSMBDS has a level in the first world that gives you very easy access to the mini mushroom. You need to beat Mummipokey from world 2, and Petey Piranha from world 5 with the mini mushroom in order to unlock worlds 4 and 7. And, I believe all NSMB games let you walk on water with the mini mushroom. I believe that NSMB2 has a level dedicated entirely to that concept.
Budget bin Mario games. Super Princess Peach for the DS felt more like an evolution of 2D Mario than the actual Mario games and was far more enjoyable.
I can't believe it, the guest narrator, the title formatting, the "Did you know?" Nathaniel says at the beginning of the video, it's like the good old days, I love this, I mean I like the longer modern DYKG videos too but this reminds me of the time when I first started watching the channel, I love this video format.
For the new Nintendo console. Nintendo should also make a New Super Mario bros 3 with stages that are longer than a average Mario game. This Mario game needs the new addition of 6 player local multiplayer
If Nintendo ever goes back to 2D Mario and wants to abandon the “New” label on the series, I’d love for them to make it look like a cartoon like Wario Land: Shake It
Miyamoto didn't like the coin block helmet because he didn't understand how it worked, but mushrooms that make you grow big or flowers that let you shoot fire from your hands is perfectly logicical?
New Super Mario Bros. series *WAS* more popular than 3D Mario… and then Super Mario Odyssey came out and pulled very similar numbers (over 25 million). Second-best selling 3D Mario was 3D Land at around 13 million, then Galaxy 1 at 12 million. Although New Super Mario Bros. U Deluxe has sold around 13 million or so on Switch, it doesn’t come close to Odyssey’s numbers.
I don't understand why Nintendo is willingly leaving the whole Subcon/SMB2 mythology on the table. They've cherry picked bits from it to merge back into the mainline Mario world, but let's bring back Wart and all the rest of that. Is it too much of a gamble? I don't think it is. SMB2 was a hit. As long as the core Mario platforming mechanics are in there, fuck it, let's get back there and flesh it out for a new entry.
10:30 You can in fact sell your coins for money but this is done via a loophole in the law and you have to go to a 3rd party (usually a building next door to the casino or other) to do it. It's not gambling, the Yakuza assure the people.
Calling the third game in the series “New Super Mario 2” was one of the dumbest things Nintendo has ever done… and now Insomniac has done the same thing with Spider-Man. 😔
2d super mario series is quite fun since the nes days, but since it was mostly absent since the 3d era and came back as "new super mario bros". new super mario bros. just expanded what the original series did but added newer stuff.
I wouldn't mind if Nintendo made some shorter levels for a future 2D Mario, just as long as not all of them are extremely short. Would be nice to have some longer levels every once in a while to flesh out some ideas.
Same, I love these classic style episodes of just explaining facts about some games compared to the newer style of digging up some extremely obscure interviews or looking into a cancelled game
New Super Mario Bros.2 Million coin challenge was a scam. Nintendo pushed it so hard. Then thanks to the backlash, they said they'd sent out certificates if you could prove you did it, still have my certificate because I thought it'd be funny. Should get it framed lol

Probably my favorite aspect about these games are the fact the Koopas do a little dance to the beats of the level's song.
And that dance even became a meme a while ago
Their dance is cute
It's not just the Koopas doing a little dance, the Goombas and power-ups also do a small leap to the beat.

The first two games were great. But after that, you could tell that the devs were just phoning it in. Hell, the most recent game is literally just a port with the only thing to justify the $60 price tag being New -Funky- Toadette Mode.
Also, there's the fact that they haven't touched franchises like F-Zero in years because they "can't think of any way to keep them fresh" while continue to churn out NSMB games that all feel like the same game but with different power-ups.
I’m checking in because of Super Mario bros Wounder
HE DID IT, HE GETS TO NARRATE A DYKG VIDEO!!
I thought he already got to narrate one
The Vs mode in New super mario bros ds was fricking amazing. I still have a lot of vivid memories of playing with my friends and cousins in Vs to the point that we started discovering new bugs and "exploits". We pushed that mode to the limit XD
Blue Koopa Shell in DS is one if the best powerups in the series
Tsuka Is really underrated, everyone points at Miyamoto as the face of Nintendo
Miyamoto just argues against innovation ever since the Wii era.
Miyamoto made Nintendo feel fun. Now that he's gone we have a tablet with corporate art style and minimalist menus with no music
@@chaytonfetterhoff5423 Miyamoto retired? Jesus
@@Max25670 Not true. Miyamoto is all about innovation. Every game of his has hardware gimmicks tacked on.

“They also banned that page from the internet archive” is the most Nintendo thing they’ve done that I haven’t heard yet
I’m hoping one day we get a 2D Mario inspired by Tropical Freeze
Yeah hopefully the next 2D Mario is its own thing and not tied to the NSMB series
@@ImPhynsaI love the NSMB series, I don’t care what anyone says.
@@ImPhynsa Wish granted.
It's awesome watching this AFTER the Release of Super Mario Bros. Wonder.
NSMB2 is definitely the most underrated Mario game, the level design is great and there's a lot of unique gimmicks
I’ve sadly not played it, but I think it’s great. The levels are unique, the coin gimmick looks satisfying and the enemy selection is solid.
Not to mention they brought back Reznor. I wish they were in more games.
Ain’t this Nathaniel B
Between Wario farting to New Mario 2 being about collecting coins, I'm starting to wonder if Miyamoto forgot that the Wario Land games exist.
Wario wasn't really a Miyamoto thing. He was a creation of R&D1, where Miyamoto is more associated with EAD.
Yeah what the other guy said- he may not remember because he never made them in the first place.
VS Mode from New Super Mario Bros. DS NEEDS to make a return in the next 2D Mario game! I won't accept no for an answer on this one! This classic mode from the DS game hasn't made a comeback for over 15 years! It would also be cool if they brought back minigames from the DS games, they don't have to be touch games, but can be entirely new minigames altogether!
It was so much fun!!!!!
Ain't you Nathaniel B?
Hold up ain't you Nathaniel B?
Who’s here after the reveal of _Super Mario Bros. Wonder_ ? 😉
If Wario had to have a fart attack, where's Mario's world famous car and Luigi's vacuum he can't have a game without?
Hearing the truth of the piracy story was so awesome!
Weird how you didn't even mention Super Mario Run, which looks like New SMB Series and it is considered as a mainline game in the 2D Mario line by Nintendo. They did even include Peach, Yoshi and even Daisy with their special abilities.
It was originally in the script for about 3 minutes but got cut in editing. Didn't have anything super interesting to say tbh.
@@DJIVision Fair enough
@@DJIVision Prove it
@@kingstarscream320 Lol okay, here's the script before edits. Gotta break it up into parts because YT won't let me copy-paste the entire thing. Too long. Here's part 1:
Did you know? [0] The developers of New Super Luigi U cheated to make the game easier than they wanted you to think it is. [1] Luigi U was originally released as DLC for New Super Mario Bros U, but with harder levels that only give you 100 seconds to reach the flag pole [1] -- but the devs made Luigi seconds 35% longer than Mario seconds. [7] In an interview, they said even though they're the guys who made the stages, they were having trouble beating em that quick, and worried it'd be too difficult for the fans at home. [3] They considered making all the stages shorter, or doubling the timer to 200 seconds -- but they didn't wanna redesign the whole game, and 100 was such a nice round number, so... they fudged the numbers. [4]
We timed it ourselves, and the seconds in most Mario games -- including New Super Mario Bros U -- aren't real seconds. [5] Each tick is really only about three-quarters of a second. But for the Luigi DLC, they made each tick one actual second. [6] In other words, 100 Luigi seconds are equal to 135 Mario seconds -- which makes the game a lot easier than you're led to believe. [8] Not only on Wii U, but also in the Switch Deluxe edition.
We recently replayed all the New Super Mario games, read a bunch of old interviews, and did some digging to find some secrets, easter eggs, and behind-the-scenes for the entire series. [9][248] We're also gonna look at the Japan-exclusive arcade entry, as well as Super Mario Run -- it might not have "New" in the title, but it's basically the series' mobile entry, so we'll cover that one too. [10]
First off, let me just say -- I know these games aren't the most highly-regarded nowadays -- [44] and a lotta folks say they can't hold a candle to Mario's 3D adventures. [39] But let's get one thing clear right off the bat -- in terms of sales, the New Super games are way more popular than 3D Mario. [40] The first one sold over 30 million copies [41] -- which is more than the entire Metroid and F-Zero franchises combined. And the sequel on Wii sold another 30 million. [42] Everyone and their mom played these games. With those kinda numbers, you might be wondering why they haven't made a new one in almost a decade. [43] We'll get to that later, but first let's get into some trivia. [38]
For most people, when they think of Mario, they think of Shigeru Miyamoto. [203][246] But when it comes to the New Super series, they should really be thinking of another guy [204] -- Takashi Tezuka, who's basically been in charge of 2D Mario since the Super Nintendo. [205] According to Miyamoto: "Mario was created not only by myself, but also with Mr. Tezuka. I am kind of shy accepting all of the compliments myself all the time." [201] / "Tezuka's sort of my right hand man at Nintendo. And he's responsible for New Super Mario Bros. We talk a lot about the game, but basically he's in charge." [202] One thing that might surprise fans of the New Super games is why they have that distinctive art style. [207] Every 2D Mario that came before was made out of 2D sprites, but New Super Mario was more like 2.5D, and used 3D models as well as sprites made from pre-rendered 3D models. [208] All the sequels used that style as well -- at this point, it's become the series' iconic look. [209] But it wasn't actually an artistic choice -- according to Tezuka, it was mostly just because it was easier. [211] Back when the first game launched, he told Nintendo Power: "[We chose that style because it] makes certain types of expression easier. We can rotate characters, make them bigger, make them smaller, etc. [206] Those types of things are more difficult with 2D sprites. Also, current development tools tend to favor 3D graphics." [210]
Part 2:
After the game's release, Nintendo ran into a little trouble in the European Union. [213] Their ratings board originally said New Super Mario was acceptable for ages 3 and up, like pretty much every Mario game. [314] But it later got bumped up to a more restrictive rating. That was all thanks to one of the bonus minigames, Picture Poker, where you play five-card draw and bet coins in a casino. [212] Europe said if you're gonna gamble with Luigi, you're gonna have to be at least 12.
New Super Mario Bros on DS was originally supposed to have two-player co-op -- a few screenshots can be seen in an issue of Nintendo Power printed about six months before the game hit store shelves. The magazine says: "New Super Mario Bros features a two-player co-op mode -- a first for the series. Not content simply to keep Luigi out of the limelight, Mario now uses his brother as a human shield. Maybe next time Luigi should leave his hotshot sibling to rot in the haunted mansion." Well that's pretty much what happened, because co-op ended up getting cut, and replaced with a small versus mode with only five stages. [59] You can play single-player as Luigi with a simple code, [34] but he has the exact same physics as Mario -- no high jump or anything -- so it's just a cosmetic difference. [36] Gaming press reported seeing an early build where Bowser was playable as well -- possibly as a reward for beating the game -- but it didn't make it into the final game. [255]
That idea for full-on co-op eventually made its way into New Super Mario Bros Wii but instead of just two or three characters, it had four -- Mario, Luigi, Ala-Gold the yellow Toad, and Bucken-Berry the blue Toad. [45] Although we should note those Toad names are contentious -- they're commonly used by fans, but the Super Mario Wiki refuses to acknowledge them. [259] Those names come from a Destructoid article claiming a Nintendo of America employee shared them off-camera, but some fans thought the article was a joke. So we checked in with Destructoid's author for more details, [257] and he said they were nicknames used by some members of the Japanese Mario team, but Miyamoto made it clear that he didn't want those Toads to have names, ever. [258] So whether they're really named Ala-Gold and Bucken-Berry, we'll leave that up to you to decide. [256]
Regardless, all four characters controlled identically and didn't have unique physics or abilities. [46] Other characters like Wario and Waluigi were considered, but fans would've expected them to have special skills -- and Nintendo didn't wanna do that. [47] According to Miyamoto: "Mario and Luigi are the same as always, of course, and suggestions for the other two characters included Wario and Waluigi, Toad, and Princess Peach. The thing is that with Wario he'd need to have a fart attack, [49] Peach would have to be able to fly with her skirt, and so on. [50] With this game we wanted every character to play the same way." And I mean, okay Miyamoto, I suppose that does keep everyone on a more even playing field... but c'mon. [51] It ain't e-sports -- it's a party game. Peach flying and Wario farting would've been way better than two Toads. [52]
After Mario Wii was already finished, the devs kept on playing it for fun, and during their play sessions they came up some ideas for a Challenge Mode. [11][250] But it was too late to add it into the game, and DLC wasn't really a thing back then. [250] They still wanted to share those challenges with fans though, so they posted them on Nintendo's official Japanese website. [12] There were a total of 89 challenges, all ranked from one to five stars -- like finishing levels with zero points, self-imposed limitations like winning with mini-Mario, [13] and speedrun times for every stage. [14] Nintendo released the challenge list in English too, but for some reason they later deleted it. [16] They also banned that webpage from the Internet Archive, so it's completely wiped off the internet with no way to find it. [21] Lucky for us though, one of our viewers printed it out on a piece of paper about a decade ago and sent us pictures -- so here they are if you're curious to see what all they were, or if you're a hardcore fan who thinks you've got what it takes to complete them. [15] Having to get those challenges off a website wasn't exactly ideal though -- which is why the devs built them directly into the next game, New Super Mario Bros U, [17] as a separate mode available right from the home screen. [20] There's actually less of them -- Mario Wii had 89 challenges, while Mario U only has 67. But they take place on their own custom courses, so it's definitely a more fleshed-out experience. [18]
This situation of supplemental content being online instead of in the game itself was actually reversed for Hint Movies -- they were included in Mario Wii, but only on the internet for Mario U. [229] In case you don't remember, if you go to Peach's Castle in Mario Wii, you can watch videos that teach you how to do Super Skills, speedruns, and secrets. [223] There's some really tricky techniques in there -- so tricky in fact that some fans thought they were tool-assisted or made by bots. [224] But it was actually Nintendo's debuggers, with the director and other high-level staff breathing down their necks to make sure they did everything perfect. [225] Every time they went through a pipe, they had to go right down the middle; [226] if there were a group of coins floating in the air, they either had to skip them for speed or grab em all. [228] Only getting some was unacceptable, and meant they'd have to reset and start over. The debuggers replayed again and again until all 65 Hint Movies were absolutely flawless. [229] They did something similar for Mario U, but instead of Peach's Castle, Nintendo put all the Hint Movies on the game's RUclips channel. [230]
Hold up, ain’t that Nathaniel B.?
Miyamoto's idea of Peach being playable in NSMBWII might have inspired Peachette
Definitely was a factor in 3D World where everyone has different abilities
@@fernandobanda5734 I'm glad they made Peach a heroine in 3D World
10:02 I actually played this game! They had it in the local Fun Factory here in Hawaii! I’m pretty sure it was in Japanese so I had no clue what to do, but I did hit the jackpot once while it was there, I thought it was pretty fun! And no, I haven’t been to Vegas nor do I gamble, so it wasn’t a gateway for me as a kid😂
Nathaniel B memes incoming!
What about Bathaniel N?
I feel like this newly revealed discrepancy between Mario seconds and Luigi seconds has massive implications for the study of relativity and of physics as a whole.
Nathaniel Scuttlebug Bandy every time.
Did you see that?? Because I didn’t when I first watched it…
Did you know?
The title "New Super Mario Bros." is actually a lie, as the Mario Bros featured in the games, Mario and Luigi, are the same characters from the original game.
Rofl
Ain't he Nathaniel B?
AINT YOU NATHANIEL B
Now this is truly Striving for Originality
Totally 😉
Just can't wait for a new Super Mario side scroller
Good news
I'd always assumed that the visual gimmick of NSMB was entirely because SM64DS had already released at the time and they just wanted to reuse assets. Obviously a lot of assets are made from scratch, but some others are definitely in the flavor of SM64DS specifically.
Plenty of the minigames are reused from Super Mario 64 DS, so you’re certainly not wrong there.
Honestly James story is Soo interesting. If he hadn’t gotten caught. Leaking a full game 2 weeks earlier would be legendary although scummy af. His punishment is actually VERY TAME. I mean Nintendo goes CRAZY over just fan games. I’m surprised they didn’t just absolutely deny him the right to live lmao
Yeah, that part tends to get downplayed in the story - that it was a bad thing for him to do. Nintendo's got a lot of positives and negatives with the community, and I'd even argue they're too tough on fan games but the relationship only works if they don't have to be spending a lot of effort fighting the community over stuff like pirates. Getting his stuff back was amazing actually, pretty classy, but legit crime committed there and not like it was a mistake.
So should we not expect another Mario Kart on Switch either? All those DLC courses certainly seem to be there to make up for a lack of a new game.
They should make Wario and Walugi bad guys in one of these games. And if you choose either Mario or Luigi to play as, you save either Peach or Daisy. Give those characters some love, since fans talk about them a lot.
God damn they sent the whole nintendo ninja squad after that one James guy
Nintendo needs to make Mario 35 available again!
Nice pfp
This was awesome
I still desperately wish that Nintendo would produce "New Super Mario All-Stars" - a fully revamped & modernized version of the SNES collection. It would be great to see overhauled visuals and improvements to the overall presentation (which can give a stronger connection to the series and the numerous ways it has been expanded upon). But also, it would be interesting to see how the old SNES and NES games could be improved - maybe with new content in the form of extra levels.
Have you ever played some of the New Super Mario Bros games with just the mini mushroom? Once you learn how to use it properly, it lets you skip over entire levels with ease. The mini mushroom in New Super Mario Bros. U is particularly interesting as not only does it make your jumps floatier, but you can also hover in the air for a very long time with midair twirls, perform a spin jump akin to that of the spin jump in Super Mario Sunshine (as it's the highest jump in the game), platform on water as if it were a platform, and run up walls. The downside is that you die in one hit and have to ground pound enemies to hurt them. This single power up recontextualizes the way you play New Super Mario Bros. U, making for an almost entirely different game mode! Just reach the flagpole with the last two digits of the timer being 66 and keep doing so, for a mini mushroom mode! Weirdly enough, this won't work until after you beat the first world of the game! Perhaps the developers didn't want to grant you access to such an advanced power up so early in the game, which is why you have to finish the first world in order to obtain it at all.
NSMBDS has a level in the first world that gives you very easy access to the mini mushroom. You need to beat Mummipokey from world 2, and Petey Piranha from world 5 with the mini mushroom in order to unlock worlds 4 and 7. And, I believe all NSMB games let you walk on water with the mini mushroom. I believe that NSMB2 has a level dedicated entirely to that concept.
Ain't that Nathaniel B?!
Budget bin Mario games. Super Princess Peach for the DS felt more like an evolution of 2D Mario than the actual Mario games and was far more enjoyable.
I can't believe it, the guest narrator, the title formatting, the "Did you know?" Nathaniel says at the beginning of the video, it's like the good old days, I love this, I mean I like the longer modern DYKG videos too but this reminds me of the time when I first started watching the channel, I love this video format.
Imagine getting a game early and all your friends push you into dumping it online.
For the new Nintendo console. Nintendo should also make a New Super Mario bros 3 with stages that are longer than a average Mario game. This Mario game needs the new addition of 6 player local multiplayer
So awesome, very good.
If Nintendo ever goes back to 2D Mario and wants to abandon the “New” label on the series, I’d love for them to make it look like a cartoon like Wario Land: Shake It
Why so?
I don’t see them doing that.
If it’s still 3D or 2.5D, don’t get angry.
Comment for engagement's sake
Oh, I miss the old style of DidYouKnowGaming.
...so there's a Toad with "the same" name that Anakin Skywalker had in _Backstroke of the West?_ XDDDDD
Allah Gold, the Hopeless Situation Warrior of the Presbyterian Church! In a *Mario game*!?
For the next DYKG video, it should be about Luigi's Mansion and its development.
Already interviewed some of the devs. Won't be the next video, but it's coming.
YES! You got Nathaniel Bandy as a guest! He’s my favorite RUclipsr! Thank you DYKG! 😄
New Super Mario Bros. Wii is what got me into Mario and gaming in general. It’s still my favorite 2D Mario game of all time.
Miyamoto didn't like the coin block helmet because he didn't understand how it worked, but mushrooms that make you grow big or flowers that let you shoot fire from your hands is perfectly logicical?
super mario bros wonders. although mario maker 2 had original levels so it could easily count as a new one
New Super Mario Bros. series *WAS* more popular than 3D Mario… and then Super Mario Odyssey came out and pulled very similar numbers (over 25 million). Second-best selling 3D Mario was 3D Land at around 13 million, then Galaxy 1 at 12 million.
Although New Super Mario Bros. U Deluxe has sold around 13 million or so on Switch, it doesn’t come close to Odyssey’s numbers.
I don't understand why Nintendo is willingly leaving the whole Subcon/SMB2 mythology on the table. They've cherry picked bits from it to merge back into the mainline Mario world, but let's bring back Wart and all the rest of that. Is it too much of a gamble? I don't think it is. SMB2 was a hit. As long as the core Mario platforming mechanics are in there, fuck it, let's get back there and flesh it out for a new entry.
I love this series
And people who hate it because it doesn't feel like anything more than a game... welcome to 2D Mario
So did the old games
Everyone else is memeing when in reality this video is really awesome, even if Nathaniel B wasn't here. (No offense)
10:30 You can in fact sell your coins for money but this is done via a loophole in the law and you have to go to a 3rd party (usually a building next door to the casino or other) to do it. It's not gambling, the Yakuza assure the people.
"But Miyamoto made it clear that he didn't want those Toads to ever be named"
*Looks at modern Paper Mario* You don't say.
Someone needs to buy those debuggers a drink. Heroes.
Definitely.
Calling the third game in the series “New Super Mario 2” was one of the dumbest things Nintendo has ever done… and now Insomniac has done the same thing with Spider-Man. 😔
New Soup Wii is my favorite 2D Mario game so I don’t care what anyone says.
Also is that Nathaniel 🅱️?
It's messed up that James pirated the game like that, but they raided his house?😳
2d super mario series is quite fun since the nes days, but since it was mostly absent since the 3d era and came back as "new super mario bros".
new super mario bros. just expanded what the original series did but added newer stuff.
Hol up, ain't you Nathaniel B?
Wait ain't that Nathaniel b
Hearing from James' quote of 6 authorities in his house sounds scary. Nintendo is some kind of mafia.
I wouldn't mind if Nintendo made some shorter levels for a future 2D Mario, just as long as not all of them are extremely short. Would be nice to have some longer levels every once in a while to flesh out some ideas.
Is “Ala-Gold” a reference to Star War The Third Gathers: Backstroke of the West? lol
"Wario would need a fart attack." I guess nobody really played the Wario Land games...
Boo! It should've been Bathaniel Nandy
A crossover between two of my favourite channels. :)
What happened to that 1K comment that said "STRIVING FOR ORIGINALITY"?
Did they delete it themselves or was it deleted by you guys?
This is the first DYKG vid I’ve watched in awhile. I just prefer this style. Random facts and trivia, no speculation or journalistic tendencies.
Same, I love these classic style episodes of just explaining facts about some games compared to the newer style of digging up some extremely obscure interviews or looking into a cancelled game
@@Cevaro2 I have watched their other videos, though I still honestly prefer these style videos over the new ones
New Super Mario Bros.2 Million coin challenge was a scam. Nintendo pushed it so hard. Then thanks to the backlash, they said they'd sent out certificates if you could prove you did it, still have my certificate because I thought it'd be funny. Should get it framed lol

I remember reading the names for Yellow and Blue Toad were Wolley and Yvan respectively in a Nintendo Power Magazine I believe it was. I cannot remember where but it was in an interview with one of the translators. Basically it is Yellow and Navy mirrored.
Someone else commented that was an IGN poll or something asking fans what they wanted the names to be, and those two names won the fan poll.

Never heard of Luigi seconds. Noice.
I was today years old when I found out that the two toads in NSMBW were nicknamed Alagold and Bucken Berry.
