Super Mario + Go

Post by hailthorn011 »

So, as many of you know, Mario has branched out into several sports. These include: Football (Soccer), Baseball, Basketball, ect. But what sets these sports games apart from more traditional sports titles is the Marioization (Yes, it's a made up word) of these games.

Could you imagine that sort of thing mixed with Go? Sure, it would not be traditional Go, but I think this would appeal to a broad audience.

A tiny problem: goban looks eerily similar to the blocks that Mario breaks all of the time...
