Mario, Link, Others Come to Scribblenauts Unlimited

cool :D

I never understood this game. I always found "jet pack" and "laser gun" was all you needed and just generated giant orange flaming angry winged elephants to ease the tedium.

If I can't have zombie Mario and Luigi chasing Peach, then this game is dead to me.

Cool hands on demo of Scribblenauts Unlimited from The Nintendo Canada Holiday event in Montreal:

Hey, that's actually cool.

Mario pipes ;)

Oh my, I am going to absolutely love this! :D

Slow newsday, eh?

The internet would be a much more enjoyable environment if sites started banning people who thought they were witty and insightful by posting the equivalent of "THIS ISN'T NEWS" whenever they saw a news story that didn't appeal to their exact tastes.

Gotta love Nintendo's approach. So this is how their 'creative cauldron' board meeting went earlier this year.

Nintendo Exec. 1: "Sooo... we've got this new Scribblenauts game planned. Don't know how to really 'big up' its profile for the U's launch though, if you know what i'm saying?"

silence.

Exec. 2: "OH I AM A FUCKING GENIUUUS! I know exactly how to 'big up' its profile!"

sudden intake of breath. all the other Execs are now leaning in with exasperated 'o' faces.

Exec 1: "HOW?"

Exec 2: "PUT FUCKING MARIO IN IIIT!"

all execs jumping and shouting, one foot to the next.

Exec. 1: "Why did we not think of that befooooooore!"

cue massive sales.

Well, Scribblenauts is published by WB games, but the spirit of this point. Nintendo fanboy appeals seem to be a huge part of most companies' Wii U plan. It's pretty clear 3rd parties don't see enough potential in their games without overloading them on Nintendo's mascots. You see the same thing with Tekken Tag 2.

Image if this came out in 2007 when we wanted it? Would be a totally different story.

What's with the attitude? :) Just curious.

Loved this on the DS but I still haven't seen something that remotely interests me in buying a Wii U.

"Dig Deeper into Princess Peach"

PREGNANT ZELDA

Oh god what have they wrought

Remember when Link was in Soul Calibur? I'd love to see this kind of thing happen more with Nintendo characters.

Can't say I'm looking forward to this game, though. I was pretty excited for the first Scribblenauts but lost interest after a couple days of messing around with it.

Man Ive wanted to play any of the Scribblenauts game but always seem to forget about it or playing something else.

Should I assume the Steam version of the game will include an assortment of Valve characters? A weighted companion cube could be useful...

I like that their design is like Paper Mario. Where is that new Paper Mario game anyway?

Sticker Star is supposed to be out before the end of the year. I forget the exact date.

But Scribblenauts Unlimited is looking pretty awesome.

Nov. 11th for Paper Mario, one week before the Wii U launchs. I know what I'm doing during the final waiting week.

@DeF: Hm, can't say if no object editor would sway my decision one way or the other right now, but I guess I won't write off getting the WiiU version until it is out.

Yoshi's dead eyed stare is freaking me out.

I hate you Wii U! You're not my real nintendo console!

So do we have to update Links profile pic with the scribblenauts version?

Durgers or bust.

I actually love the way they look in Scribblenauts' art style. Would be cool to see them in their own game, like... say... a Paper Mario game.

This is barely news.

holly shit that is so cool!

Awesome, now where's DK, Samus, and the rest of the gang?

Really like the Scribblenauts art style applied to Nintendo characters.

Yeah, works nicely.

Imagine how pumped the artists at 5th Cell must've been when this went through.

Every time I think I'm out, Nintendo...

The concept of these scribblenauts is great but for some reason it doesn't keep my interest for very long and I just mess around in the intro/sandbox area of the game making god fight godzilla with lightsabres or something.

I never comment on news stories, but I feel this warrants a "Cool, maybe I'll play this Scribblenauts games since I missed all the other ones."

So...Cool, maybe I'll play this Scribblenauts games since I missed all the other ones.

Wreck-It Wraph?

Yeah. A little TOO Wraph.

i dont think the intended audience for this game its going to buy the pc version,(a 20 something buying this game on steam seems pretty weird)

Is the part in parentheses an aside or are you reiterating the first statement?

That's pretty adorable. I'm not getting my system till the Monday though, and would feel real dumb preordering and buying a game the day before.

Well crap now I kinda want to WiiU

@JackSukeru said:

I kind of lost interest in the WiiU version once I learned that it would also come to 3DS. I ended up buying both of the games that came out for the DS, so it really feels like a portable series to me.

Anyhow, I'm still looking forward to killing more babies with bugspray when this does come out.

the 3DS version doesn't have the object editor, though.

the issue with this is that you assume this is a game only for kids.

Wonder if the PC version will have the Team Fortress 2 crew in it?

"Exclusive" and "Unlimited" are odd words to put so close together.
