That sounds awesome! Can't wait til I can actually load the page

 

[Busaiku]

Very wonderful indeed.

 

[A Link to the Past]

I really, really hope we see a World 1-3 level and World 1-4 level.

 

[Sharp]

Wow, this composition is really tasteful. Good work, Kondo!

 

[Keru_Shiri]

I'm not really a fan of scrolling stages, but this stage looks like it'll be a lot of fun! I like how the area is a warzone now. :lol

And the music is great too!

 

[RoboPlato]

I love the idea of the ruins of 1-1 as a level. This looks so awesome.

 

[Innotech]

HOLY. FUCKING. SHIT.

 

[MisterHero]

Next-gen brown has reached the Mushroom Kingdom

and hopefully it has more than a couple stages.

 

[Duderz]

:lol Great stage. At first when I saw it wasn't a Galaxy stage, I was disappointed, but this is a great idea nonetheless.

Nice arrangement, too!

 

[DarkKyo]

This update was totally worth it, and really refreshing. Hopefully this will help us get our minds off all these lame-ass roster arguments and focus on why this franchise is so fucking amazing.

 

[Fireblend]

Damn, I was just talking to a friend how nice a new stage or music would be. Sakurai read my mind. Awesome update! It's somehow sad to see 1-1 like that tho, wonder why they decided to go with the "ruined" thing...

 

[Meloche]

While it's not Galaxy music, I'll take it -- it's about time we got some Mario music. And what do you know, it's amazing! Really liking this stage, too. Hopefully there's hidden ways to get the bonuses in this one like there were in Melee though. By that I mean holding R as you selected a stage to get the alt music (a similar trick would be nice here to select the underground stage, or to start in a different section of the FE stage), or holding A to start as Sheik (really hope that's back for Brawl, and an option for ZSS as well).

With all the leaks and things lately my attention has been less focused on the Dojo, but Sakurai is doing a pretty good job of pulling me back each night. :0)

 

[fernoca]

I wonder why the Mushroom Kingdom's turned to ruins, though? Maybe that'll be explained in the SSE...

The kingdom you once knew has turned to ruins over the long years, and it is now your battlefield.

!

 

[DECK'ARD]

Love it!

This is the game that keeps on giving.

 

[BlueSummers]

Great double update! Hopefully the megaton will come on Friday now

 

[Absinthe (Permed)]

Great stage. Great music. Great update.

 

[Insaniac]

Awesome. Updates continue to deliver

 

[scottnak]

Stage/Music double update of awesomeness.
Book it!

BINGOOOOO!!

SO SO awesome. Love the ruin-ized 1-1 1-2 levels!!

 

[BuddhaRockstar]

This music is so freaking amazing!!!

The stage, at first I was like, wow that's brown, but it's really growing on me, it it going to be a ton of fun to play.

Who cares about rumors, rosters, and smashboards, this is going to be an amazingly fun game and we are all going to have giant nerd smiles on our faces every minute that we play it.

 

[Diablohead]

1-1 in ruins? awesome

 

[Danthrax]

Pretty cool idea for a stage.

Ironically, they made a level out of the only two stages I've ever seen in SMB. =\

Spoiler

kidding. barely.

 

[HURGHT]

Great stage and music. There's something a little unsettling about this, though:

The kingdom you once knew has turned to ruins over the long years, and it is now your battlefield.

 

[Jiggy]

Hey Jiggy, since this is kind of a double stage update (since the game occasionally loads an entirely different stage when chosen), are you going to count this as an unofficial triple update?

I'll think about it.

Okay, I thought about it. Nah. We've had changing stages like PictoChat, Castle Siege, Battleship Halberd, and Delfino Plaza... I realize this is a different situation, but to me it's not too much so. >_>

 

[layzie1989]

This level reminds me of these realistic mario pictures. Everything's all drab and bland and realistic. :lol :lol

 

[superbank]

Awesome. Now we need Tetris stage.

Someone upload the music to a file sharing site please.

 

[Sharp]

Oh, damn, whoever it was who just reminded me that it wasn't a galaxy stage... yeah. It's not one. I really hope we get one!

(I also was kind of hoping this was a desert level from SMB3, but oh well).

 

[HK-47]

thread title should be genius

 

[Keru_Shiri]

Anybody else dig the background for 1-2 as much as I do? Looks really expansive and awesome.

 

[Fireblend]

Great stage and music. There's something a little unsettling about this, though:

Seriously,I can't believe I'm actually feeling bad about how it's been abandoned. Damn Sakurai playing with my childhood memories :lol

 

[Oblivion]

I don't know what to think. Stage concept is FUCK AWESOME.

But those backgrounds.. :/

Also, the music... : |

 

[Tremis]

oh man, Koji Kondo, I love you! Thankyou for making my day .

 

[Toy Soldier]

Makes my day, one of my favorite updates in a long time (Mario nut speaking). Kick-ass idea for a stage, and a very cool arrangement of the classic tune. Love it.

 

[JCX]

awesome update. One of my roomates is a huge retro mario fanboy, so he'll probably love this.

 

[Rindain]

I've played that music about 15 times already. It's got an awesome jazzy/trancy aspect to it.

 

[Jiggy]

Why is the music so good. How can a remix of a song that I've heard ten million times be so good that it makes me stop punctuating properly.

 

[JoeFu]

Music is awesome, but it's too relaxing...

 

[Scalpel Knight]

I'm tired of all that character roster nonsense, so I'm hoping for a nice stage or music update tonight.

Yeah, I'm totally happy now. This is fucking awesome.

 

[TreIII]

Awesome update. This stage really looks great.

Still...I would like to see the SSB64 version of the Mushroom Kingdom come back...complete with the pipes and pow blocks! :lol

 

[Ydahs]

Awesome stage . They keep on outdoing themselves. I wonder if this stage is available from the start since I wanna try it out first.

 

[RagnarokX]

Nice stage, but too brown

 

[Rancid Mildew]

Awesome stage and amazing music remix.

 

[Dubble]

Holy freaking DAMN - World 1-1 **AND** World 1-2?!

PLUS NEW MUSIC?!?

This may be the best stage update we've seen to date. And how much you wanna bet that World 1-2 will have its own music as well?

Freaking AWESOME.

 

[KevinCow]

Forget Mario Galaxy, gritty realistic world with gray and brown color palette = true next-gen Mario.

 

[Rentahamster]

wow

 

[Iam Canadian]

I'll think about it.

Okay, I thought about it. Nah. We've had changing stages like PictoChat, Castle Siege, Battleship Halberd, and Delfino Plaza... I realize this is a different situation, but to me it's not too much so. >_>

I was actually being facetious. I don't consider it a triple update at all and I didn't really mean for you to consider it. >_>

Nice stage, but too brown

It's next-gen.

 

[layzie1989]

Nice stage, but too brown

that's the one thing i thought when I saw this level :\

 

[ShockingAlberto]

Koji Kondo still has it in him.

 

[Jiggy]

Music is awesome, but it's too relaxing...

I kind of want to play it in Delfino Plaza even more than Mushroomy Kingdom. Seriously, imagine if this remix had been the Plaza theme in Sunshine. It just seems to fit...

 

[Chris R]

You better be able to get on top of 1-2 somehow

 

[Touchdown]

Completely Unexpected! I personally love it.
