KHuutra just back off.Causal to me is making games for kiddey dumding it down more a new audience.

Look, if you don't want to continue the conversation, you're free to leave the topic at any time. I'm not going to drop this point, in this topic, until you explain to me how adding co-op to a non-casual series makes it casual. You say co-op isn't casual. You say Mario isn't casual. Yet you say adding co-op to Mario makes it casual!

How can this be?

 

Co-op IS a casual feature. It allows inexperienced gamers to join their more core friends to work together and beat the game. Plus just the idea of playing with a group of people is something that would be more attractive to a "casual" gamer (i.e. casual gamers don't tend to like playing games alone). So yes, this is a casual feature, but that doesn't mean it can't appeal to hardcore gamers as well.

 

 

I dissagre. I dont consider Left 4 Dead casual and thats coop.

Seems to me here a lot of the people who dont care about this game are not Wii fans. I mean some guys selling his Wii and comes in here saying he wont be getting it. I mean LMAO. Then some other guy, sony fanboy, goes off about he dont want it because all the PS3 games are better. I would think the OP's question was for Wii fans that dont want the game. If your not a Wii fan then why would you care anyways?

Day one perchase for me.

Left 4 Dead is not casual, but the co-op feature within it has the effect of including casual gamers that wouldn't normally try the game if it were single-player only. That is, they would be willing to try the game if it meant playing with a more experienced friend. A co-op feature will not instantly change a harcore-content game like Gears of War or Left 4 dead into a casual game, but it does open up the game to more people.

As for NSMBWii, the co-op feature will no doubt do the same thing and moreso than a game like Left 4 Dead, because the content is casual-leaning in the first place. There is no doubt that Nintendo has purposfully intended to use co-op as a way to attract casual audiences.
