On This Day On This Day in Nintendo History: Super Mario Bros. 3; Radar Mission; Zack & Wiki: Quest for Barbaros' Treasure; Naruto: Clash of Ninja Revolution; Style Savvy

• Upvotes

On this day (October 23) in Nintendo history...

  • Super Mario Bros. 3  was released in 1988 for the Family Computer in Japan. In this platforming game, developed by Nintendo R&D4, Bowser and the Koopalings are causing chaos yet again, but this time they're going beyond the Mushroom Kingdom into the seven worlds that neighbour it. Now Mario and Luigi must battle a variety of enemies, including a Koopaling in each unique and distinctive world, on their way to ultimately taking on Bowser himself. Lucky for the brothers, they have more power-ups available than ever before.
  • Radar Mission  was released in 1990 for the Game Boy in Japan. In this action/turn-based strategy game, developed by Nintendo R&D1 _with _Pax Softnica, two games in one! Close-up torpedo battles plus long-distance missile strategy. If you prefer long distance battles, choose Game A to strategically employ your fleet and engage the enemy in pulse-pounding missile face-off. Find and sink your enemy's vessels before your opponent finds and sinks yours!
  • Zack & Wiki: Quest for Barbaros' Treasure  was released in 2007 for the Wii in North America. In this point-and-click adventure/puzzle game, developed by Capcom, enter a world of puzzles and piracy. Will have you racking your brains as you guide budding pirate Zack and his sidekick Wiki the monkey through eye-popping levels in search of untold riches. As an apprentice pirate, Zack spends his days searching for a long lost treasure that is said to be buried on a mysterious island.
  • Naruto: Clash of Ninja Revolution  was released in 2007 for the Wii in North America. In this fighting game, developed by Eighting, the exam begins. Some ninja-in-training have incredible speed - others amazing technique, but to move up in the ranks of the ninja elite, a ninja won't go anywhere if he doesn't perfect both. Do you have what it takes to rise above the rest? You're dropped into the Chunin Exam storyline played out in the television series.
  • Style Savvy  (known in PAL territories as Nintendo presents: Style Boutique ) was released in 2008 for the Nintendo DS in Japan. In this simulation game, developed by Syn Sophia with Nintendo SPD, you're challenges to run your own fashion store as a style consultant, hand-pick your own stock, take part in Fashion Contests, choose new clothes from the online shop and even play against other consultants with multiplayer mode.

What are you favourite memories of these games? How do you think they hold up today? Hash it out in the comments.

What first party Switch games do you want to see Switch 2 Editions for?

0 Upvotes

Metroid Prime Remastered doesn’t have a Switch 2 update. The game runs at an astounding 900p. Less than the Switch 2’s handheld screen and of course much less than a 4K TV.
IMO a simple increase in resolution would be so welcome. I’m sure fans would pay for such upgrades. TBH I find it gutting knowing that people emulate games at resolutions higher than we see on Switch 2.

I’d also love to see Pokemon Legends Arceus in 4K. There are many great games held back by previous hardware that could see new success on Switch 2. It’d help the somewhat dry recent offerings tbh.

What first party Switch titles do you want to see get a Switch 2 edition?

What does it take for a Nintendo series to have a “theme” on Nintendo Today App?

0 Upvotes

I only have 2 themes selected which are Legend of Zelda and Fire Emblem which was recently added after FW’s direct.

I’ve been wanting Fire Emblem to have its own theme before the direct, but it made then they added it after the direct was finished and a great way to promote the game and showing you the characters from the entire franchise day by day.

Which had me thinking what would it take for a franchise to be a selectable theme? So many are missing like Metroid, Xenoblade, Star Fox, Pokemon.

The App currently has a total of 8 themes to choose from with 2 being the “serious” ones while the rest are bold, colorful franchises.

I sense from the recent FE drop, that they would do the same for the next single directs showcase upcoming games like Metroid Ravenous and Xenoblade Genisis.

What does a franchise have to rank? S tier? If they are popular from in Japan and the West?

I would love a Star Fox theme showing renders from past entries, digital cards, learn about a character etc. But at least they added it to the select your favorite series in content feed. Themes would feel like a huge treat.

Thoughts?

Nintendo could take a play out of their own handbook and announce Majora's Mask remaster next year.

0 Upvotes

They would basically be printing money. How sick would that be? Major's Mask came out only 2 years after OOT, they need to go the full mile and do both games since they share so much of the same world and themes.
