That's a cool article. I knew about most of those, but there are a couple I didn't know anything about (Adventure Island, Kirby's Adventure, etc)

Wow there are some videos of the Kirby game. That looks great! It looked like it even had a Smash Bros. like multiplayer mode to it too! Sweet! I hope that's being ported to Wii now.

That explains why I've never heard anyone talk about Mario 128, it wasn't even a game to begin with. Interesting article.

Man, I would have happily sat down $50 for Raven Blade, that game looks great.

It always confused me why people thought it was anything more than a tech demo to begin with. :shrug:

Also, Unity looked awesome from the one screenshot and description given.

I always knew that, but then Miyamoto didn't help with his "Oh we're making Mario 128" comments. He was of course refering to another game (Galaxy) but for some reason used that name to mean "the next Mario" even though that was a tech demo.

But he did promise a second GC Mario, so the article is not really wrong there.

A second GC Mario? Super Mario Sunshine was the first, what was the second? If you mean The Thousand Year Door, I wouldn't consider that as a classic Mario game, as Mario 64 and Galaxy are. Paper Mario is really its own thing. Then again, I'm probably way off the mark here.

Umm, did you actually read what I wrote there?

Wow, Kirby Adventure could have been an awesome game...

In Super Smash Bros. Melee, there was an Event Stage called Super Mario 128...
would the "100 Marios" been the same?

But most of those games aren't looking so great...
