I'd argue it looked very bland at E3, and only since has it really blossomed.

I was unsure if u was getting this game as it comes out on PS4 launch day but it just looks so fun so I'm probably gonna get it now

honestly the E3 trailer was so uninspired and looked honestly boring. Now this looks amazingly fun, why didn't they show this at E3?

Cuz Iwata is scared of competitors stealing their "unique ideas". Fair enough I guess but it's a double-edged sword.

Lots of people eating crow right now

The game's fun factor looks very high. It's a shame the Wii U is doing poor currently.

I won't say, "I told you so", until the reviews come out but....... this is further evidence that some people need to learn to not jump to conclusions based on limited and early footage of a game.

What else did we need to base our opinions on? It was all that was availlable at the time. It's Nintendo's duty to promote the game, and at E3, they failed.

Having said that, this is looking to be an amazing game. I can't wait to throw a Mario 3D World party with three of my friends.

^^ Exactly this! It looks super cool. Megaton of fun and new power ups!

I'm happily eating it, but tbf the E3 trailer was a bit meh. Their has been a great turnaround since the last Nintendo Direct though!
