The Underwater Stage is actually fun! |
|
Mario's a Steel Diver! Speaking of Mario's vehicles, I would be remiss to not mention the Marine Pop. I only make the distinction between this and the Sky Pop (despite them controlling and playing practically the same) because the Marine Pop takes a terrible truth about gaming and throws it out the window. What am I talking about? I'm talking about the underwater stages in video games. Where you're forced to stop your running, jumping and coin-collecting, and partake in some slow, awkwardly controlled swimming stages. Maybe it's just me and my anecdotal evidence, but by and large swimming stages are like, the least fun stages out of all platforming games. The best we can hope for is great music while we paddle along (thanks DKC!), submerged in H2O, somehow without the need to come up for air. But Super Mario Land says "screw all that" and gives Mario a killer submarine that is fast, responsive, and comes with an unlimited supply of torpedoes. Awesome! ...I'm not sure where Mario got this from, though. Maybe it was Slippy's prototype for the Starfox Team's Blue Marine?
