2 D Mario games are likely to continue for as long as they can continue to milk the Mario IP . The above sentence may make me sound like a cynical bastard , but let ' s look from a company POV . New Super Mario Bros U was the secondbest selling game on the Wii U , so obviously there ' s still plenty of interest it ' d be insane not to cash in on that . As long as people keep buying 2 D Mario platformers , Nintendo will happily keep making them so you keep giving them your money . <| sep |> Its being released tomorrow or 1125 . Go back to this comment when you see the patch notes <| sep |> Are you being racist right now ? I am ItalianSerbian and take that offensively ! <| sep |> Does offline mode no longer exist on Steam ? ?<| sep |> Ah thanks about the heads up on the shut down . Totally missed that .
