Well that eliminates the rumours of Mario Sunshine being the next Mario platform game. :p

Well, after reading that list of their made games, it doesn\'t take a genious to figure out what kind of game it will be....

Well I have only played the sims, The sims:House party,simcity, and simcity 3000 and I thought they where some fun games. I thought the sims was a crappy game until I played it at my cousins house and got addicted to it and the sims house party was perfect. I am for some reason excited to see mario sunshine.

Heheh, yea.. I wouldn\'t be surprised if it turned out to be a strategy/sim game of sorts, coming from them :)

I haven\'t liked Maxis\'s console games in the past, however all of those were first released on PC. Perhaps if a game from them has been designed from the ground up for console, it\'ll be a good one. We\'ll see, right?

I don\'t know. While this could be a mistake on IGN\'s sake, I kind of doubt it, just considering the nature of the whole thing. In whatever case, this is strange news.

It would be very interesting to see a Mario game from Maxis. I would really like to learn what they\'ll be doing, assuming this is true.

Come on, Mario has always been the ARCADE version of the REAL THING.  You know, you don\'t actually shoot fireballs from your fingers, that\'s purely an arcade aspect of the game.  You really shoot them out of your butt.  Haven\'t you ever seen the job description for a fat italian plumber?

Requirement

Little to no education at all
Knowledge of green piped waste systems
Mushroom and flower eaters will be hired on site
You will need to purchase a golden cape as well as a pair of blue overalls
Muilation of a raccoon is required and its tail removed and placed upon the small of your back
You must be able to carry large vegetables as well as large blocks
Destroying bricks with your skull is covered by our health insurance plan
You will be paid with pennies that you locate on the job site
Growing and shrinking will be perfored upon the consumption of our "special" mushrooms
