I'm going to remain cautiously optimistic. Rabbids mocking Mario and company might add to the game's humor ... whatever the game might be.

 

[Zyrox]

Accurate NSFL tag.

 

[Roo]

I swear to god if this game existing results in a Rabbid getting into Smash before Rayman does Ubisoft is dead to me.

The game could end up being good but man, I'm disappointed in Nintendo for letting this happen. I thought they held their franchises to a higher standard than this, and wouldn't let their most iconic brand cross over with this swill.

Disappointing.

The fuck is this shit?...

 

[Erv]

Please have a paper Mario fighting system. And not the new shitty one.

 

[Guardians]

Looks like alot of fun as expected Awesome

 

[Sami+]

Kids like them I guess. I feel like I'm not the target audience here.

 

[oti]

At least we know what game Nintendo will spend half of their E3 presentation on that no one really wants or cares about.

From the moment I heard "Mario and Rabbids crossover" I was like "uhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhh" and this picture basically clinches it. The fuck even is this game and why did Nintendo think it was a good idea? Did Ubisoft really sell them some crazy bullshit about Rabbids being huge in the West or something? A Mario and Rayman crossover RPG would've been way better than this creepy shit.

The worst part about this is that this is Ubisoft's "Nintendo 3rd Party Pitch". It probably won't sell well at all and it'll be Ubisoft's excuse to never touch the Switch afterwards. I guess I can't blame them after ZombiU flopped, but at least that was cool. At least it wasn't.......this.

It's just a rabbid dressed as Peach. I'm all for this vintage GAF NSFL train ride but let's wait for gameplay before we, you know, judge the game.

 

[Salty Rice]

Looks better than Mario Odyssey.

 

[Peléo]

I'm slightly dissapointed this has been leaked. I have no idea what would be the reactions from GAF had we not been spoiled crumb by crumb in the past few months.

 

[JustenP88]

Fair enough. If you're basing it on the rumored game style plus this picture then I can understand where you're coming from.

But I personally just can't comprehend people not liking a particular game 100% due to a character design. That's just not something I can wrap my brain around. Might be a me problem though.

If the game ends up reviewing well, approximately 0% of the Rabbids hardliners will stick to their guns. People just love a good circlejerk.

 

[FZZ]

If it's a chit chat ting better talk nice

Murder on the beat so it's not nice

In a world in which people have admitted that their interest in ARMS went from 0 to 100 thanks to the Twintelle reveal, it makes a lot of sense.

Art Direction, Graphical Quality, and Character Designs. It's not just "praise it when it's awesome, ignore it when it's not."

That's why it's so great when a dev creates an aesthetically pleasing game or has great graphics. By that same token, seeing something you don't like can repel you and you're not really obligated "give it a chance" beyond that.

I don't actually thing this render is the deciding factor for most people however.

 

[Mihael Mello Keehl]

Yall better becareful before yall make some developers cry

 

[Shadow Broker]

Not going to judge until I see more. That's all I can say. Lol..

 

[Jameson]

Gamexplain just said the pic is real, and it's a little piece of a bigger picture they already seen.

 

[Ivan 3414]

Fucking Rabbids refuse to die. Had shelves full of that shit Ubisoft shovelware back when I worked in games retail. It barely budged when we knocked it down to a few pounds.

Still can't believe Nintendo let them do this when they should've rightfully been forgotten.

Nintendo needs all the third party support they can get; this is a caveat of that

 

[NOLA_Gaffer]

This just feels like Wii U Nintendo and not Switch Nintendo. This probably went into development a while ago.

...what? Nintendo is Nintendo.

 

[Kissenkopf]

Gaf as childish als always. I wonder if the pic is NSFL or the comments here....

 

[zroid]

oh my god

 

[oti]

I bet Luigi is breakdancing or something.

 

[Indelible]

This is nightmare fuel, Rabbids were a damn mistake.

So much unnecessary salt.

 

[Neiteio]

I genuinely like this, haha

It could get a 100 metacritic and I still wouldn't buy it (if I had a switch) because rabbids look like shit.

 

[Grakl]

Yall better becareful before yall make some developers cry

Lol

 

[Dark Cloud]

Looks better than Mario Odyssey.

Alright now this is too much in the other direction lol

Yall better becareful before yall make some developers cry

lmao!

 

[L Thammy]

I am now considering retiring from the world and joining a monastery.

 

[Plinko]

Nobody doesn't ask for a lot of games it doesn't mean it's bad....like seriously get over it. It's one picture. You didn't see any gameplay and it looks good.

"Get over it?" It was a joke. Stop taking things so seriously. I'm actually intrigued by this game.

 

[J@hranimo]

A bunch of drama queens in this forum.

 

[Order]

This could have been a Rayman crossover.

Is Rayman a Rabbids spin off or something? Never heard of it

 

[XandBosch]

It's just a rabbid dressed as Peach. I'm all for this vintage GAF NSFL train ride but let's wait for gameplay before we, you know, judge the game.

Hey, the game itself could be a technically awesome RPG with great writing etc.

it's still Rabbids and Mario.

Disappointing.

Nintendo is not going to hurt their brand in an way with a single crossover game. Y'all need to chill.

Lol, open your mind guys. This is going to be fun.

 

[Altered Juice]

Hilarious image and hilarious thread.

 

[Neiteio]

Hahaha, amazing

This thread gives me life

BRING ON E3!

 

[SinCityAssassin]

Let the games begin.

 

[Dark Ninja]

I don't get the overreactions? Is it the fact that the game has Rabbids in it or the crossdressing?

 

[SporeCrawler]

still dont believe it. that being said i like the general direction if this is true. rabbids are kinda like minions and minions dressed up as mario characters makes sense, if you have the option to play the mario cast

 

[cw_sasuke]

...what? Nintendo is Nintendo.

Some people are just trying too hard to paint a certain picture.

We havent seen the game. This isnt developed by Nintendo from what we have heard...yet we have people in this thread being scared that this would be the BIG e3 game...right a Ubisoft developed game will be Nintendo big e3 game.

GAF acting like the Mario series is Game of Thrones or some shit and the series doesnt feature characters like Nabbit and co.

 

[Bersi]

Looks... interesting? Really curious to see this game at E3.

 

[Dark Cloud]

"Get over it?" It was a joke. Stop taking things so seriously. I'm actually intrigued by this game.

Yeah, it's so easy to tell you were joking with the hundreds of overreacting posts. Whatever.

I don't get the overreactions? Is it the fact that the game has Rabbids in it or the crossdressing?

It's the Rabbids. Rabbids are known for dressing up and it was leaked they would dress up as Mario characters.

 

[Okami Haundo]

I still can't believe that Nintendo approached Ubisoft and told them to make this game! I heard they had plans for Super Mario RPG 2 but canned them for this idea. Rumors also suggest that Miyamoto likes Rabbids more than Nintendo's own IP. He has plans to use them in Pikmin 4 and the new Metroid will be a Rabbids crossover.

 

[DMONKUMA]

I do honestly hope this isn't their big surprise announcement for E3. I want to see something a bit more exciting...

Not bother by the pic tho.

 

[Stumpokapow]

In case no one has confirmed it, someone sent me a slide deck from this game a while ago (which I had no way to authenticate or disprove) and it had a bunch of art like this. Again, I'm not in the gaming industry and I haven't seen the game myself, I'm just saying it's consistent with what I've seen.

Farrrk don't tell me that

 

[Spirited]

To be serious for a second, I'll wait to see reviews before I dismiss this completely. It's not like the designs are that bad.

 

[Onivulk]

I don't know why God left. But, I know why he isn't coming back.

Well now you have to share it with us.
