Wow, weird thread... Yushire, if I rfecall correctly you used to post loads but you have been missing in action for ages now, welcome back!
OT - Yes, people are hyping this games, but essentially in a sales sense. But it is unfair to compare to WSR and Muramasa (or Madworld). This is a ... Mario! No hype needed. Now, it clearly won't sell DS like numbers but it'll sell. And I think everyone is pretty clear on that.
Now, you call this game core but Mario is pretty main stream so will surely bot fall the Metroid route. And I think Nintendo will take all the hype they can get.
I think the only doubt is its eventual impact on HW numbers. Here, you hear a bit of everything and I am sure some might be disappointed due to exagerated expectations.
Elaine: I will never understand people
Jerry: They're the worst.
