SSB:B sonic inclusion is the greatest thing to happen out of those by far.
Mario Kart i am not sure about, i am also a purist (well kind of, i played MK64 first and have only played the orignial once) i remember MK64 with more fondness than with MK:DD, but when i think about it properly DD is a much better game than 64, not just because of the two person idea (though that idea was excellent, kind of like the second player addition to Galaxy...novices can help you without having to do too much)
But i am still sceptical about motorbikes and flips etc, it seems to complicate things too much, but i am probably wrong again as to how much greater this will be, particularly with proper steering.
Project Hammer looked dull from the beginning to me, no more comment on it.
DDOC looks amazing, who gives a t$%* about slightly pixellated characters, the idea behind the game is great and i really hope it works well (ie the controls/game mechanics need to be great)
