Mario has been hard since when? You could skip almost every single level in Super Mario World by just getting the ever present cape. Very few Nintendo series have ever been about difiiculty. For the most part they are just about having fun while playing. To that end, I fail to see how an auto-play option hurts anything. I am interested in it just to see how the game designers intended the player to beat various parts vs how I chose to do it. Don't like it? Then don't use it. Youtube offers identical functionality with more hassle.
