I know Nintendo liked to think they were appealing to the hardcore Wii audience, but I don't think these games are enough in 2009. Wii Sports Resort, Wii Fit Plus, and NSMBW will all sell quite a bit, but they are ALL for the casual audience. I'm sure Mario will be fun but it really seems like it is a much easier version of the old 2D games and one meant for the whole family to play. It is designed to be played with multiple people but doesn't even have online capability. While I think this is a better lineup than the Wii Music/Animal Crossing debacle of 2008, this is still a fairly week finish to the year for Nintendo. Now 2010 on the other hand sounds like it could be their best year yet on Wii.

People really will bitch about anything. New Super Mario Bros. Wii is my game of the show, and I'd rather have that than a dozen Mario Galaxies. Your complaints are all invalid - itn'st not easy, and online would add absolutely zero to the fun of having everyone in the same room. Frankly, no matter what Nintendo had people like you wouldn't be satisfied because you're not really looking for good news anyway.

The point of having online is to add to the fun of not having everyone in the same room. As awesome as it would be to have a crew of buddies ready at all times to play NSMBW with me, it ain't gonna happen. And I suspect single-player gameplay will be relatively disappointing for a Mario platformer.

No big deal for me. Lots of great third party stuff to buy instead.
