Putting "New" in the title is always a bad idea. Maybe it sounds good now, but in ten years it won't.

Okay, did Bowser's skin just melt off when he fell in the lava??

Joke's on you, New York!

Actually, I think all the "New" names in New England (and that too) are retarded. Then again, almost all names come from boring real words (such as Detroit just being French for "the strait" as in the water between present day Detroit and Canada).
But at least the worst one ever isn't in the US - it's in Canada - Newfoundland :laff: :laff: :laff:

I'll probably get a DS for college-visiting trips this summer. Wee.

I might buy a DS Lite for this game alone... but then I wonder.. what if they port it over to consoles later on? I've never really been a fan of hand-held consoles, when I did own a GBA SP I never really played it at all.

"New York" is just cool by association. The name in itself ain't cool. And of course time is relative, 10 years is old for a game, not a city. Give it a few thousand years and "New" York will be lollin too. In fact I've seen it brought up in Sci-Fi movies where characters refeer to places like Old New York and New New York.
And yes, I know that there's a good chance that the earth will collide into the sun before the joke gets old so it's not such a serious shortsight putting "New" in city names. But with games it is.
edit: Just in case if anyone still wonders what I'm on about:
A chatroom, 2017 AD:h4x0r2015: have ya played new supermario brothers?
LeeTboi2004: THERE'S A NEW SYUPER MARIOGAME????????+
h4x0r2015: no the one from 2006 i mean
LeeTboi2004: LOLLLLLLLLL

Correct me if I'm wrong, but the DS can play Gameboy Advance games, can't it? If that's the case, surely it wouldn't be worth it when people could just buy the Advance port of the mighty Super Mario World? I can understand wanting the new Mario Bros game, but is it really worth the price if you can get SMW on the cheap (Again, assuming that this
is possible)

Surely Futurama?

Magic 8-Ball says "highly unlikely". Games are ported to handheld once the handheld is powerful enough to run them, but the reverse is highly unlikely. The game typically wouldn't go over well in a regular console setting. Besides, Super Paper Mario is coming out for Gamecube, so I can't see them porting a completely separate platformer.

Definately possible, and I have done so. Yoshi's Island is also a possibility. Feel free to play whatever Mario games you want on the system ;)
Which, come to think of it, means every major Mario game aside from Sunshine. Even the Japanese Super Mario Bros 2 can be played via import of the Famicom Mini release.

The game that came out in 2006 and then again in 2012 is doing the unthinkable. It's coming out... AGAIN. New Super Mario Bros U Deluxe is droppin' on da Switch tomorrow.

Reviews are at (
https://www.metacritic.com/game/switch/new-super-mario-bros-u-deluxe) 80%, and I'm probably gonna buy it!
