"The original concept was that the Mario Bros. games would be games that two people always played together, but of course, the Super Mario Bros. series turned into more of a single-player game. People would play the game and...people playing alone had a serious look on their face. They were working very hard...and it was a big challenge for them. But as soon as we had multiple people playing the game their expressions changed dramatically. Because it is multiplayer, it has some new facets, in the sense that more advanced gamers can take care of novice players that might be playing with them, and ...carry them through the levels. One of the things we tried to achieve [on DS] was a balance of difficulty that would be easier for some of the newer gamers who first joined with the DS hardware, but would still satisfy the needs of longtime fans. But we found that doing that was actually pretty difficult. ...at E3, somebody asked, is New Super Mario Bros. Wii going to be as easy as New Super Mario Bros. was on DS. I think I said that it wouldn't be as easy. ...What we've created this time is in fact pretty difficult." - Shigeru Miyamoto
