Because they're a bunch of insecure "hardcore" or "serious" gamers who define good games as the ones with swords, guns, no neck muscle-men, or fast cars in them. Words like mini-games and family terrify and enrage them. They're the same people who told us how great Lair, Haze, Alone in the Dark, and the Force Unleashed were going to be. =P |
Conversely I think people - myself included are worried Nintendo may have overly kiddified this franchise to the point of hurting sales. It may be a great and fun game, but so was Zack & Wiki and Dewy's Adventure amongst others that suffered poor sales because it looked like a kiddie game but wasn't really. This definately looks like a game targeting children (to me at least). Maybe it is, maybe it's meant to be broader appealing but I think with a cover like that, the assumption will be it's meant for children only.
