Should NC have the slideshow format that Mario Mysteries has?

I was checking out Mario Mysteries earlier, and I was reminded that the comix there are presented in a different (and in my opinion, far superior) format. Basically, it's like slideshow wherein you progress through each comix frame individually.


So, Sean Kelly, I was wondering...since you're in charge of SMBHQ now, is that something you think would work for NC? The slideshow format you used in SMM Comix?

I like it as an optional feature.

I would still like to be able to read the comix in their intended format, though.

Optional is good.
Just imagine that you have to click through all of the panels from "A Story About Something"... you would need a new mouse after that.

Agreed, having it as an optional thing would be best.

I am the one who controls NC for Jay at the moment, actually, and I have pondered this...

...and decided against it, because it'd be far too many mouse clicks, doesn't work in non-javascript compatible browsers, and can kind of break up jokes which require previous slides to be in view.
