Sure, we're gonna get Zelda: Breath of the Wild, but I think that a combination of both that AND a new Mario game would really entice people to become early adopters of the Switch. But I'm getting off-track.

Going by what I know of the basic premise, this new Mario game sounds like it's gonna be huge (in terms of sheer size). I'm super curious how such a large, open-world Mario game is gonna pan out, in terms of how fun the gameplay will be to how technologically stable the overall performance is gonna be (because the Switch can't even perform at the same levels as the base-level Playstation 4 and Xbox One consoles.). While I can get behind the idea of having a promising Mario game of it's type available on a console like the Switch, to where you could take it with you on the go if you so desire, I can't help but be cautiously optimistic for now. I need to see how the game performs when it finally comes out before I can truly decide whether or not I want to invest in it. If they do everything right, then by all means this is likely going to be a "Mario Adventure" the likes of which may put literally every Mario game that came before it to shame. Nintendo is usually quite good in delivering good Mario titles, and I really hope they outdo themselves here. Well to me I am reminded of Sonic Adventure games.

And I plan on getting Zelda na dmaybe Mario Odyssea for the Wii U. It doesn't feel that long a go I got my Wii U and I don't want to buy another Nintendo console so soon if there is still some good games for it.
