System: Switch
Release date: October 19, 2023
Developer: Milestone
Publisher: Milestone


Developer Milestone knows racing games. You may not be familiar with their name, but you’ve definitely at least seen one of their titles before.

In Nintendo’s latest interview for Super Mario Bros. Wonder, the team spoke about taking inspiration from how 3D Mario games are made.

Producer Takashi Tezuka spoke about a “crisis” as the project began stemming from the thought that 2D Mario games might be too tough for some to complete. Tezuka said the team “started to think about what we could do to make players want to advance”. This led to Nintendo considering more freedom and using 3D Mario titles “as a reference point”, according to designer Koichi Hayashida.
