SMB3 vs SMW

World

I liked 3 more because I prefer its more direct nature. Level design, physics, and overall progression is a lot more straightforward. Plenty of short and sweet levels that are constantly showing off cool ideas.
I love World, but its kind of a chore for when I just want a 'pick up and play' game. The only Mario game that did the SMB1-3 style since was the Luigi U DLC. What a shame.

>durr flat level design, easy game, Yoshi, cape, feels like a real world/adventure, floaty
>hurr short levels, easy game, warp whistles, leaf, better in bursts, slippery
>DUDE MARIO 2
don't you guys get tired of doing the same shit every day

What makes you think we're here every day?

Wasn't NSMB Wii also similar to the Mario 3 formula though?

World feels better with better movement mechanics, but 3 has more level variety.

3 has better worlds and powerups, world has better mechanics.

It is more like World at its core if you ask me. Levels more lengthy and the fact that there was a focus in alternate exits and bonus levels.

A bit unrelated, but the NSMB series feel a lot more slow in terms of progression. Everything feels like it takes a long time. There's some great stuff in those games, but I can't be bothered to replay them for that reason. Luigi U balanced it by making the levels actually short and punchy. No bullshit.

World is superior in many aspects, however, Cape Mario ruins the game. He is far too OP.
Yes, you can simply choose not to use it, but that's just poor game design.
Same thing with the retards defending Super Metroid's objectively shit game design by claiming you can do a minimalist run or whatever.
Games shouldn't have a god mode button like that.

I've never played SMB3

>What makes you think we're here every day?
because I'm here all day every day and have nothing better to do than shit on threads about games I've never played.

Yoshi's Island unironically shits all over both.

Kind of true but the problem is less cape mario than the game's overall attitude toward making sure the player never feels frustrated or stressed out. This philosophy can be seen in both the level design and mechanics. SMW's mentality is to just have a super-fun time bouncing through the world and finding hidden exits and so on. Even the supposedly hard part of the game is a special optional area that isn't even that hard. SMB3 meanwhile is a traditional platform game presented as a sequence of challenges for the player to overcome. SMB3 is not "very hard" and there are lots of extra lives and power-ups, but overall it's a well-balanced game with gradually increasing difficulty and a player will feel legitimate satisfaction overcoming the challenges. Plus the level theming is great and very memorable.

The SMB3 world themes are: Desert, Water, Giants, Sky, Ice, Pipes and Dark. Each one influences the level design, with the Desert level having flat areas with quicksand, water world having lots of water themed levels, giant enemies in giant land, precarious platforming in sky plus that big tower level, Ice with slippery surfaces, puzzles and vertical segments in pipe world, and World 8 really feels like you've descended to the depths of hell to face down evil.

World has the dumb food themes that barely even have aesthetic influence on the levels much less any relevant gameplay challenges.

World. Better level design, longer levels, more difficult levels, cooler secrets.
