(1:30) Note that the game is Japanese original, and the Japanese text does not have plural (since Japanese don't have plural). So it's the English translator who decided to make it plural.

Yeah but why would he do that

[@Liggliluff]

@@kirbyfazendoummoonwalk9214 It is possible that the translator did it out of habit. When you translate categories, using plurals make sense since a category has more than one entry _usually._ Then the reason why "game style" is in singular is probably because it refers to the game style of the level, of which there can only be one.

Regarding MM2 underperforming, Mario Maker 1 was absolutely huge on the Wii U, seeing people buy a Wii U just to play that one game. Mario Maker 2 didn’t garner nearly as much hype though (probably due to a combination of the concept being old news and the Switch having plenty of other system sellers), but Nintendo were probably expecting it to sell like the first one.

I think that when Nintendo worked on "what do we put in 3D World", they simply never considered "should we bring these back to the other styles?" In fact, despite 3D World having such a strong presence in the game's marketing and new-ness of it, maybe they only started working on 3D World after they already finished working on the other styles, and didn't go back to them.

I like the master sword and smb2 mushroom, and I would love to have new power-ups like them, but I just wish the mystery costumes were in the game. I get that multiplayer could lead to confusion, but there could just easily be a colored outline for each character in multiplayer only (like red frog mario), and the link costume could just be removed, or the link power-up could be changed to look less like the original 8-bit link.

[@Ruizon1]

The costumes could have been left as a single player only function though... Not allowing levels to be multiplayer if costumes were added to the level.

Alternatively, maybe picking up a mystery mushroom in multiplayer will just give you the costume of the character you are playing as instead.

[@ayo.2022]

I always just thought that in multiplayer specifically, the Mystery Mushroom would be replaced with a smaller version of the Big Mushroom, replacing the player's colour scheme with their modern colours. That way you could still have a version of Small Mario with Super Mario's physics, bit with little confusion and very little extra work for Nintendo.

Ever since they announced that updates were coming to an end, I always felt that the game was incomplete only due to the absence of a few basic features. Still to this day if they just added beach and volcano themes along with Fire Bros and Porcuffers It would feel like a complete package. I'm still mad that water is exclusive to the jungle theme of all things.

[@BoshiYoshi]

I definitely believe SMM2 suffered heavily from Nintendo's "Finish it later" policy they've been doing with games lately. Really feels like Nintendo was definitely planning to continue support of the game (aka finish it) via updates, either paid or free, but the game didn't meet sales expectations and Nintendo pulled the plug on all further work on planned updates. What we got was what they'd already finished working on. I have no doubt that the SMB2 Mushroom was originally planned to be a full "extra game style" like 3D World but they just weren't able to finish it so we got what they had already finished in the form of the power up. It's a huge shame. SMM2 is the type of game that had tons of potential for continued support. The fact that Nintendo dropped it like a hot potato (and the fact that they NEVER fixed the godawful laggy online mode) makes me regret purchasing it honestly. And it also makes me worry we'll never see a SMM3.

[@biivamunner3122]

Gotta say, I’m sorta surprised that the 3D world style didn’t get a boomerang bro, since it would coincide with the boomerang flower pretty well Anyway, I’d love to see ice flower be either global across the 4 main themes, or just be a U exclusive, hidden behind being an extra form for the fire flower, like Yoshi’s and fire-Yoshi’s.

20:48 This could have *easily* been fixed by: 1. giving each player a colored border when they got a Mystery Mushroom. 2. have each player transform into a preset costume similar to what the player originally was, rather that what the mushroom was supposed to transform you into (for instance if Mario got it, he would use the costume that is just Mario with his updated color palette) 3. Have it so only YOU see yourself as the costume the mushroom gives you, but the other players appear as normal

i always assumed the reason the mystery mushroom was cut is because, aside from smash, amiibo aren't nearly as popular as they used to be, and most first party games have greatly cut back on how many amiibo are used and what their rewards are, if they have any functionality at all. nintendo used to assume all people would have some lying around - now they have to assume that people playing their systems probably don't have any.

[@TackyRackyComixNEO]

They could've just made the costumes unlockable, though, via either special levels or as a reward for clearing the 100 Mario Challenge. They had that as a feature in SMM1, no reason a similar system couldn't be implemented here if they actually brought the item back.

[@leowatley]

@@TackyRackyComixNEO that's true, but getting the rights to the non-first party costumes would/could be a hassle, and if they included some, but not others, the outcry would probably be greater than just cutting them out altogether. also,. since 100 man was cut, and the mode was switched to being an endless mode, setting the unlock thresholds would be a challenge to balance. yeah, they could have set it so when you clear a string of levels you inlock one, but in smm1 it was clear six, unlock one, so, again, people would be annoyed no matter how they set it up. plus, since they are only smb1, the amount of usage they would get is minimal compared to other objects/items they could work on. i do believe they were going to add more characters, like they did with link, but covid and sales below their estimates were probably the reason they were axed. i could definitely see in smm3 adding 10-20 costumes that added a new moveset to, not just smb1, but all game modes, and i think that would be a much better use of dev time (i.e. game changing elements that can be used in all styles as opposed to cosmetics used only in one style). i'm not saying i don't wish they had been included, but i can understand why they weren't.

Honestly, the best explanation for a feature in SMM1 not returning in SMM2 is that players used it in a way that didn't 100% align with what Nintendo envisioned, so they threw another tantrum and took their metaphorical ball home with them.

The thing about underselling in SMM2 sales is that Animal Crossing is the #2 most sold game on switch and yet it had the plug pulled on it quickly.

Hi @OdysseyCentral I love your content and find it super interesting and informative I have a video idea: Since you ranked all the taunts in Ultimate, how about ranking every character’s victory screens? Also i was curious, have you done a face reveal before/ are you planning to do one or no and why/why not? Love your videos, keep up the great work to 100K!!

[@Odyssey_Central]

I do actually want to rank all victory screens here soon! (Possibly my next smash video) and as for the face reveal I have done one but it’s quite old, I’ll show my face whenever I think it’d add something to a video

Another factor with the Mystery Mushroom is the 3rd Parties represented in Smash. By the release of the first game, we only had Sonic, Pac-Man, and Mega Man. And now, we have a lot of 3rd Parties and instead of negotiating with all of them, Nintendo was like "screw it" and decided to remove the Mystery Mushroom as an easy way out.

[@Pvale777]

You'll do what at 100k? Also I could've sworn you had more subscribers. Your videos definitely have a very high quality.

I think covid played a major factor in stopping the support for this game as as well. This game got 2 major updates with the second and the last one was right in the beginning of the pandemic. They probably had to put out what they had finished and scrap the rest do to the work from home orders at that time But the lower then expected sales played a factor in this as well.

[@bonedude666]

A SMM2 mystery I think about is why they got rid of the rave effect. It was the best one in SMM1, so why remove it? And if you're gonna say "PeOpLe SpAm It AnNoYiNg!" No. In the 2 years I had SMM1, I probably only ever saw 10 levels _total_ use it, and they were all "Don't Move" courses, so it's not like people hated how often it was used.

[@Odyssey_Central]

A lot of the sound effects from the original were cut oddly, definitely would be a good one to cover if I make another of these!

15:56 I think that Nintendo should have given each style a unique form of the fire flower SMB - superball SMB3 - hammer suit (I'm talking about the original one, not the shitty Builder Suit we have in 3D World) SMW - They could have invented a form like a laser/ninja flower or something NSMBU - Ice Flower SM3DW - Boomerang Flower (I know it's already in the game but if it was a form of a power up and not a power up by itself it wouldn't feel like the 3D World style gets too much attention)

[@bonedude666]

A laser flower actually sounds pretty cool. Maybe it could move in a straight line and pierce through enemies and blocks.
