So just another reason to subscribe, you can't enter that giveaway yet, but if we do happen to hit 50k, yeah be ready for the biggest giveaway we've ever done on this channel. Now let's get into this, you see there's been rumors dating back I believe all the way to March about a 35th anniversary collection for the Mario Brothers series. Now part of this rumor involved a new Paper Mario game which we obviously have in Paper Mario the Origami King which came out last month on July 17th and that led a lot of credence to these rumors but then we heard nothing else since and as the months go by we keep wondering what the heck is going on, are we even getting any of this? Well finally, a major Nintendo leaker, a major leaker in general has spoken up and this is someone who is just as reliable as King's L maybe more so because he has an even longer history dating all the way back to the NeoGaff days back when that was the go-to place. Now he's over at Reset Era, I understand if you don't like these forums but they happen to have a couple really reliable leakers. This person's username anyways is Nate Drake which is obviously PlayStation related but he tends to know a lot about Nintendo and is really up there with the Emily Rogers of the world in terms of nailing a lot of stuff. He's nailed correct direct dates, he's nailed correct announcements, the correct release months for certain games before they were announced. He doesn't speak up very often just like Emily Rogers doesn't but when he does it's important to listen and maybe he's speaking up because people are worrying about what Nintendo is doing the rest of this year. Well fear not, we now have some direct words from him and needless to say it's looking very very interesting for the rest of this year. So Nate Drake first came out responding to Lee Loosh 0612 on Reset Era who said if we go by Nate's words the Mario collection should release in less than two and a half months from July 20th so it should be announced in the first half of August at the latest. He actually goes on to say September was actually the plan for a Mario release. Such a game doesn't actually need a direct it feels more like a Twitter announcement a la Paper Mario. So basically saying we're getting some sort of Mario something you know probably the collection because that was the response that was about a Mario collection. It sounds like a Mario collection releasing in September was the original plan and likely it might still be the plan and he doesn't feel like it's going to be announced through a direct. So there you go that's exciting but wait there's more because well of course there's more. He went on to respond to some other people. Plinko said am I correct thinking the 3D collection it's much more of a holiday type game than 3D world because remember there was the 35th anniversary collection packet like Super Mario All Stars collection pack whatever you want to call it that had like basically Sunshine Galaxy games Super Mario 64 all of them remastered and then there was also the 3D collection like the the Super Mario 3D world right deluxe that that's supposed to come out and he says the 3D collection should be the first release of the two. So that means he's talking about the 3D collection releasing next month in September. So hold on to your butt cheeks because it gets even crazier from here. He does mention he's unsure of course of the exact day in September it would release. Dark Cloud went on to say the 3D world doesn't make sense for this year anymore. Smart Nintendo should release it in January or February and then nature goes on to say that actually very may well happen which suggests that as far as he's aware there is no actual release date for the 3D world deluxe game and it very well could be something that's pushed into early 2021 to kind of get momentum kickstarted which would not be unusual for Nintendo even though that misses the 35th anniversary because if you remember they used you know New Super Mario Bros. U Deluxe they kind of kickstarted last year so it's not uncommon for them to push like a Wii U port or whatever to kick off a year so it actually would make a lot of sense and Natrix says you know that that hey that very well could be the plan because he doesn't actually know when that second one is coming he just knows when the 3D collection pack is coming. Beyond all of this that might not be the only Mario goodness we're getting this year because obviously if the plan is to release the game in September that can't be the major holiday game so what the hell is Nintendo doing this holiday and I've been leaning hard on Breath of the Wild to just a guess I don't really have any evidence to support it but Natrix actually commented on it so in responding to C to Sabasa who said this is the first year in years that we are approaching August and still not sure what Nintendo is releasing this fall I really hope that it has more than Mario collection in a 3D world port that's only what's coming then this has been a shitty year for Switch Natrix responds they will be leaning on Mario pretty hard this holiday now if you read into those words it could just mean there's nothing else coming and you're just going to get the 3D world port and the Mario collection but since he previously said that it's possible the 3D world port isn't until next year then what the hell are they going to be leaning on this holiday because you can't they have to have something new release this almost is a hint a slight hint that there's something else Mario related coming out this holiday whether it's a new Mario Kart 9 that would be pretty big maybe we're looking at Mario Odyssey 2 after all Mario Odyssey got zero DLC see Breath of the Wild actually got some DLC Mario Odyssey did not get any DLC they literally could have been working on the next Mario Odyssey practically from the moment the first one released so we have to sit here and wonder what is he referencing here that they're going to be leaning on Mario really hard this holiday so 35th anniversary collection packs releasing in September well okay that's not a holiday game yeah they'll maybe they'll bundle it in for a holiday or something but you know and they'll probably do a Mario bundle as well like they've done Mario Kart you know eight bundles in the past but what are they going to actually do this holiday that involves Mario I don't know and I think that's the crazy part as we enter into the rest of this year is it definitely appears at least according to Nate Drake then Mario Mario and more Mario is the plan and we got Paper Mario giving it this all-star collection 3D pack coming really really soon all these remastered stuff should be absolutely fantastic but then what do we get after I don't know and this is where the speculation begins because Nate Drake just kind of opened the door on pretty much any possibility for this holiday because it's hard to believe that they would just lean on 3D world in a collection pack right if they're leaning hard on Mario what are they leaning on are we getting a new Mario sports game perhaps are we getting a new you know a new Mario supercharged or something are we I don't know like what are we a new Mario tennis like a new to go down that Mario sports stack of games what are we getting I don't know but something Mario and to me it feels like you know with next-gen platforms coming it needs to be a bigger Mario game that's why I was leaning more towards Odyssey 2 or Mario Kart 9 but maybe you know that was Nintendo just doesn't care what the competition's doing so it could just be any sort of Mario game they could toss out there you know are we getting a new Mario and Luigi game you know I don't know a new Super Mario RPG just surprise us out of the blue and release a new one of those like that would be totally unexpected so there's just so many possibilities and I guess I want to throw it out to you guys I want what do you guys really think about all this because obviously I'm really excited for the 35th anniversary collection especially like getting the galaxy games in in HD getting all these games in HD but likely like remastered Mario 64 and Mario Sunshine like that's going to be really really exciting to see what they decided to do with that and how far it was pushed in the remastering of those games because we've seen some crazy stuff with the Unreal Engine 4 remakes and the fans have put together that Nintendo has shut down but still we've seen some really interesting stuff from that so now we have to wonder what what's happening now the rest of the year is the 3d world deluxe pushed I think it's pretty obvious 3d world's coming there's obviously been another smaller rumor attached that they're gonna release 3d land and 3d world together as a second collection pack on its own that could be a thing as well but again does that really sound like something that carries a holiday even bringing 3d land into HD I just don't think so I don't feel that that's the punch you use for the holiday so if they're going to rely on Mario super heavy obviously they're going to assume that the collection pack is going to sell well during the holidays but they have to have a banger game coming out and I've said all along there has to be a big game and Nintendo's biggest IP is technically Mario so a new Mario game would be baller for this holiday and that could be something that they might save for an actual Nintendo direct but yeah he basically 35th anniversary collection seems to be dropping in a tweet he feels but whatever's coming this holiday which he's not really given us much info on that's what really really has me excited you guys let me know what you think about this down
