A huge step backwards, into the 2D glory days of Mario, into the roots of Nintendo itself, is just what people want, and just what Nintendo needs. Hearing that some brat at IGN thinks this is a step backwards because it harkens to pre-PlayStation gaming gets me even more hyped. Mario Kart Wii took a step backwards too, towards the SMK roots. Even Galaxy was a step backwards in some regards, with more linear A-to-B traditional platform gameplay, and none of the un-fun, frustrating difficulty of Mario Sunshine which the hardcore loved because it made Mario more niche. Good riddance to the new school, all the hail the huge step backwards. |
Nice post, I share your sentiment.
Although new school can be cool too.
