With this game we finally get a new Mainline Mario game after SMO (and a 6 year wait)! This will do the following things:

The current Console Series Any% run will turn into pre-SMBW, stay on the leaderboards until new runs with the new game sufficiently replaced that, then it will be moved to the archives just like the pre-SMO version.

The current Mainline Series 100% run will also gain the "pre-SMBW" title, also needs a new run to be officially locked down and moved to the archives.

Locking down the previous categories is not meant to lock down on competition, just fixing what would be a bit silly to focus on. Just like when SMO was added, if you already do that run adding that one more game is not hurting you and it makes much more sense this way. It's also better to help preserve what people have achieved until then without it getting lost through new achievements. Unlike categories like say 982 or 370 they don't really have that kind of historic reasoning to continue existing as we already need to alter their names for them to make sense.

If you don't agree with this, hop on our Discord server and discuss it there, we got 4 more months until these changes will happen so plenty of time to talk about it.
