• from mario wonder interview
  • https://www.nintendo.com/us/whatsnew/ask-the-developer-vol-11-super-mario-bros-wonder-part-2/ "New Super Mario Bros. was the first 2D Mario game to use 3D models. The adoption of 3D models provided a natural change and was seen as a significant evolution in 2006 when it was released. In addition to the visual changes we incorporated back then, we wanted to implement more engaging and functional ways of using 3D models in this 2D platformer. Therefore, at an early stage of development, we set ourselves the goal of discovering how this could be achieved."
  • https://www.nintendo.com/us/whatsnew/ask-the-developer-vol-11-super-mario-bros-wonder-part-3/ (square brackets are mine) "Kondo: Until now, we've [sound designers] typically joined during the latter half of development, and even if I thought it would be fun for the visuals to change in response to the sound, it wasn't something we could really implement. So I was itching for a chance to do it. In the previous game [presumably NSMB, although the accompanying video shows NSMBW] too, I joined in the final phase of development, so the most I could do was make Goombas jump in time with the background music."
• nsmb was supposedly a candidate for being pre-installed on ique dsis, but they went with nintendogs https://x.com/chinesenintendo/status/1393775378729111554
• nsmbw iwata asks https://iwataasks.nintendo.com/interviews/wii/nsmb/1/7/ says that they had to scrap multiplayer in normal levels due to the levels becoming so complex
