      I was thinking that a sequel where Tatanga returns and attacks Sarasaland. We still don’t have an explanation where he comes from or why he targeted Daisy and Sarasaland. Wario only took over Mario’s castle because he wasn’t there to protect it. I was thinking that the game starts in Sarasaland and Mario and friends set off to stop Tatanga. From there the alien flees and ends up in the Mushroom Kingdom and actually overthrows Bowser and takes over his Castle.

    What's also sad about Nintendo's refusal to acknowledge the Mario Land series is that it kinda takes away from Daisy's character too I think. If Sarsasaland was a more recognized locale in the Mario world and made more appearances and references in both spinoffs and mainline games, it could theoretically make Daisy herself more interesting seeing as she's supposed to be the ruler of it.
    Imagine if Princess Peach just existed in a vacuum with only the rare occasional mention of a "Mushroom Kingdom" that appeared ONCE in a short obscure gameboy game, and we knew of no other residents of the Musrhroom Kingdom like Toads, Toadette, Toadsworth, and locations like Princess Peach's castle were never truly fully realized and established... She'd just be some random princess character that just kinda exists. That's how it is for Daisy, because similarly Sarsasaland and by extension the Mario Land series gets microscopic attention from Nintendo.
    Heck- even Daisy herself is only relegated to sports and fighting spinoffs! Why hasn't she appeared in a mainline game, or Luigi's Mansion, or Paper Mario? It's all very unfortunate, and all relates back to Mario Land never getting the spotlight.

    Apparently the Sand Kingdom from Odyssey started out as potentially Birabuto...?
    That would've been such an awesome throwback and idk why they didn't go through with it.
    I like Mario Land 1 more but 2 is an awesome game that also deserves recognition. These are the games that shaped the company's handheld history (Land 1 being a launch title and Land 2 being overwhelmingly popular in its time). If not for them, we wouldn't have the GBA giving us the best potential fourth 2D Sonic games as a whole trilogy (the Sonic Advance series), nor the apex of the Pokemon franchise in the DS era (heck, we likely wouldn't even have Pokemon, or at least it wouldn't be as big of a success if the Game Boy itself wasn't).
    Even the competition it helped shape, with SEGA's Game Gear giving us titles like Tails Adventure.
    The Mario Land series absolutely deserves the recognition, as the titles that shaped what the Game Boy could do, while also being the most innovative 2D Mario titles to date in part thanks to console limitations (a true example of "restriction breeds creativity").

    I had a Game Boy before I got any consoles, so the two SML games were the first Mario games I owned. I love how almost every level in both games has its own visual theme with its own unique enemies. Most mainline Mario games, even the newer ones, have only 3 to 6 themes for all the levels in the game.
    Considering that Mario & Luigi: Superstar Saga had references to almost every Mario game to date, including some obscure ones, I'm disappointed that there really weren't references to the Super Mario Land games. I guess there are Goombas with scuba helmets, like in the SML2 whale level, but nothing else I could think of.

    This was quite an amazing retrospective.
    Looking back, it's weird how Nintendo shoved Super Mario Land to the side when there was so much hype surrounding it back in the day, like that rap song you mentioned and even in a Pepsi promotion.
    Sadly, nowadays, people are quick to dismiss Super Mario Land, even going as far as saying the only reason why the Game Boy WAS successful was because of Pokemon. -_- Nothing against Pokemon (the older gens anyway), but like you mentioned, if it wasn't for that and Tetris. The Game Boy would have flopped, and maybe mobile gaming wouldn't exist for probably another 10 years or so.
    Despite having the DX hacks, and even New Super Mario Land on the SNES, I still hold onto to my hard copies of the original for the very reason you mentioned. If there's another game that is deserving of getting the Samus Returns treatment, it's definitely Super Mario Land.

      Anybody who says that Pokemon was the reason for the success of the Game Boy is a fool. Pokemon came out in 1996. The Game Boy was released in 1989 and was already 7 years old at the time of Pokemon's release: it wouldn't have lasted that long if it hadn't been a success beforehand. If anything, Pokemon extended the Game Boy's lifespan.

    i loved the uniqueness of the super mario land series especially interesting like the characters(especially princess daisy,wario & captain syrup.:3),the starman having the can can theme,mario having a castle that outside mario party haven't seen since,wario(he also had the same designer of samus aran from metroid.) getting his start getting tatanga to kidnap daisy(be funny if daisy referenced it still being miffed at wario for it.) and distract mario to take over(which the commercials really showed with how crazy he looked.) with him deciding to make his own castle after getting defeated trying to steal a princess peach(only time she shows up in any way in land.lol) statue from captain syrup and sarasaland being based on different areas of the world.
    i remember hearing originally in odyssey along with isle delfino sarasaland was going to appear with princess daisy searching for the moons(if not a multiplayer mode that should've been luigi's spot helping her instead of a broken minigame.) and nintendo really needs to start showing focus to these(instead of 3d all stars for mario's 35th it should've been a collection of the sports,rpg's & other spinoff's.)/their other non pokemon and zelda franchises as i'd love to see more from land like princess daisy being in a 3d game(think she should've been in the year of luigi as i love the 2's moments together/show how they met after mario saved her.:3),the style of level traveling & bringing back captain syrup.(would love to see her in the warioware games/the main villain of a new wario land game with waluigi & the warioware gang helping wario.)

    To answer a possible reason as to why these games don't get more love, I think it's due to them being VERY weird if you try to explain their aspects in the current context of Mario:
    - Daisy being Mario's love interest
    - Wario's absence from the other mainline games aside from the side games and spin-offs (the sport, party, and kart games)
    - The idea of Mario having a castle and/or private island when normally he just has a simple house
    - Not much alien iconography usage afterwards
    - Some of the very obvious real world parallels and concepts, plus a couple that MIGHT be copyright issues (mostly the Jason enemy type), although like you said Odyssey uses a lot of the same types of ideas
    - There not really being any obvious ties between Tatanga and Wario aside from one old character encyclopedia that only HINTS that Tatanga partnered up with Wario as revenge against Mario. (Also is weirdly only noted as "Alien" in preview material)

Did a reading of it on my channel just because. kiro talks, if you make a video on the Wario Land series, I give you permission to use the audio from said video where I read the essay and add in images or video clips you think would work with it. Could even say something like, "Take it away, wariodude" if you think my take on the game is better than anything you could say about it.

    Even as a Gen Zer I love Super Mario Land 2. I just played some of it yesterday on the new GameBOY Virtual Console and I gotta say, I love how uniquely weird it is. The references to fairy tales, pop culture, and even Nintendo's old "R&B" LEGO competitor from the 60's are so funny to me. I also love how it's the only Mario game that really has Mario setting a goal for himself rather than saving or doing quests for others; it's good variety from the usual princess-saving, and it shows he has a backbone for himself despite his selflessness. I even love the rabbit power-up! It's such a neat little thing, I'm considering getting that DX fan-remaster for my computer too.

    even just throwbacks like mentions or references to sarasaland or mario land (the place) would be awesome. imagine odyssey dlc or odyssey 2 where we get to explore mario land and marios castle or having a new super mario bros game have you go to sarasaland and getting to see new levels for their cool themes in the modern mario style

    Cool fact: Ragumo (the mole enemies from Super Mario Land 2) are actually confirmed to be relatives of Monty Mole in several Japanese sources (in Super Mario-kun volume 6, they were even redesigned to look more like the Monty Mole design from said manga). I really thought it was cool that this obscure game expanded upon the Monty Mole lore by making a new relative to them that live in Mario’s private island for some reason. Still, it was really cool they were expanding the Monty Mole lore even early on considering the first Monty Mole species was not even Monty Mole and was Rocky Wrench (unlike the Galaxy games which just made a random ass completely separate mole species (Undergrunts) not even confirmed to be afflicted with the Monty Mole species, probably due to them being lazy and hideous) (also yes I do hate the Galaxy games)

    Smol correction, those are not teeth in the whale level. Ribs instead. That aside, these games were a lot longer-lasting on the OG system. You had to account for battery life for one and irate (grand)parents disliking the music. Since Nintendo can't appreciate them though, these are games you have to play any way you can. And 6 Golden Coins is definitely amazing.

  • @BlinksAwakening
    @BlinksAwakening Год назад +3

    Isn't it obvious why these have only been rereleased once since their original release? It's because only the 3DS thus far has offered anything resembling a virtual console for original Game Boy and Game Boy Color games. Sure, the Wii U had GBA games, but took no part in the original GB or GBC games. I imagine if Switch Online does get a GB/GBC service, these games would quickly join that service.
    So really the only rerelease I think we can feasibly say we've missed out on for these games this far, would have been DX color rereleases for the GBC like Link's Awakening saw (though rom hackers have made this a reality in recent years regardless). And I think its clear that Nintendo does still respect and acknowledge the Land games in the modern age, ever notice how Super Mario 3D Land was on a portable system, and Super Mario 3D World was on a home console? That's not a coincidence, its an homage to the fact that the original Land was on a portable while the original World was on a home console.

    • @retrofan4963
      @retrofan4963 Год назад +1

      It also doesn't help that unlike Sega with classic Sonic games, Nintendo rarely make Mario compilations, which would really benefit for classic Mario games in the Gamecube era before Virtual Console. But they never did such a thing. The only time they ever did close to such a thing was in Super Mario All Stars for SNES and Super Mario 3D All Stars for Switch, only two times. If Nintendo commonly makes Mario compilations so often, obviously we would see classic NES and SNES Super Mario Bros games more often, but also take the opportunity to include the Super Mario Land games more often like how Sonic Mega Collection and Sonic Gems Collection include the Sonic Game Gear games. Nintendo really has no excuse. They purposely starve the audience on classic Mario games for every opportunity that they can even take notes from Sega to fix this, but they didn't. They only mainly rely on Virtual Console and recently Nintendo Switch Online to port classic Mario games.

      He's a "rival" in some sports/racing/party games, but even at this point Wario is barely even a villain, only having 3 villainous roles. (SML2, Warios Woods, and the Japan only "Mario & Wario.")
