NSMB Wii competition winners

Posted 19th of December, 2009 at 08:23 pm by Infernal Monkey Infernal Monkey is online now

Wow, remember this competition? Apologies for the delay! Back in 1942, we asked you there - on the other side of the monitor - to come up with a brand new suit for the next Mario game. In fact, here's the exact question to make this opening look a bit longer than it should be; In 25 words or less, what kind of suit do you think Mario should have next, and what special power would it give him?

We received over 50 entries (51!), here are the two winners.

Wiggler suit - letting you climb up and down walls and on top of ceilings.
Get hit and you'll turn red and start running involuntarily.

Mario should have the Lightning Suit which allows him to shoot bolts of lightning that can paralyze enemies and power mechanisms for different uses.

Congratulations! You'll also get one of those crappy little Mario toys! Huge thanks to everyone that entered, and again for not storming the stage! Also while you're reading this sentence, there's still time to enter our Christmas competition (see here). Cheers.

Evil Donkey Kong not included!

Still think my Reggie Fils-Aime suit should have won.

I can't believe I'm actually one of the winners.

Edit: Should I get killed by the first Goomba on purpose or not?

Looks like I'll need to buy this now. I thought my Mushroom suit was good. :P

TetsuKunio had a much more original suit than mine. I'm curious what some of the runner-up entries were.

I especially liked the Wiggler suit idea.

I'm so happy I won, I'm all excited and tingly.
I can't believe it!

Mario would look so funny in a Wiggler suit, I'm glad you guys all like the idea.
