There are still fans of Super Mario bros Z (or SMBZ for short) who want more episodes to be released even after Alvin Earthworm cancelled the series. They're multiplying OMG! In case you fans didn't notice, he closed his deviantArt account after leaving it inactive for so long. He likes to do his furry art more than sprite animating because the latter as we know it is very tedious work. I'm not quite a fan of furry art, but it's what he started over ten years before starting SMBZ and it's like his signature hobby. Scratch that, it is.

The constant demand mentioned in his rather tragic announcement referred to one of the factors that contribute to his stress in life, along with his kitchen porter job. Sure, it sucks that the series can't be concluded properly and I strongly agree with that. But as far as I'm concerned, Super Mario Bros Z is cancelled PERMANENTLY!!! Because like I said, he closed his old account on dA and sprite animation may be a thing of the past altogether.

Now all we can hope for is that Nintendo and Sega work together to make an epic Mario & Sonic RPG. As Alvin's biggest fan, I ask you all to get over it and find better things to enjoy. Have a nice day.

It is always good when people don't understand basic English with how it is used in day to day life.

If by tedious you mean that it requires no talent, then I agree with you.

There is nothing tedious about tweening stolen graphics across the screen.

These hate bandwagons really do become ridiculous. I never watched the myself as I wasn't interested in them but jeez people.

Also that moment when people are complaining at something requiring no skill when it is obvious that they are saying it in a way to claim they will never make one themselves out of some principle of the skill required rather than the likely truth of them being unable to make it.

Or furry art. He's been doing that a lot more than he's been working on SMBZ.

Thought I'd bump this thread to prove something. This is what Alvin/Mark said in his own words.

I'm sure some of you remember my Super Mario bros Z series. After I cancelled that after losing interest in working on it, my inbox was figuratively bursting with people either begging, demanding or sending death threats to me to continue the series. I however have not succumbed to such things. Entertainers should be allowed to do what they want for themselves, not for the fans. Especially since Nostalgia Critic and SMBZ are available to watch without fee. So they have no right to demand anything. I am aware a lot of people enjoyed the series. I just lost the passion for it and need that spark again in order to continue with it.
