Didn’t Mercury Steam do a Metroid 2 remake for 3DS? Maybe they’re porting that to Switch to follow up on Dread’s success. I never owned a 3DS but I would love to play that.

It isn’t a given that a game company will always get to work on a new game right after they release one, much less two new games.

I pretty much agree, maybe if they’d managed to somehow capture the weird feel of Mario RPG’s prerendered sprites in real time it would have impressed me more? Not sure, but it definitely looked more generic than the original game in terms of graphical style. Plus I’m just not that excited to play it again for some reason, even though I loved the original.

However, Super Mario Wonder looked so creative, the surrealism drew me in and it seems like the perfect direction to take 2D Mario in. It’s the one game in that Direct that I saw and was like “I need to play this”.
