What a horrible review. Did they actually play it? At E3 I played it with 3 other guys from VGC, and with some strangers, and with a guy from Nintendo. Every time it was pure heaven. What could be more fun than playing a new 2-D Mario game, which always has the best level design, and on your very first playthrough, have 3 more people in your way trying to help, and sometimes failing horribly? That's... the point.

I hate to say this, I really do....

 

But I expect some degree of backlash against this game. It's a new 2D Mario going up against teh REAL HARDCORRRRRRRRR GAMEZZZZ!

In a holiday season with MW2, Assasin's Creed 2, Uncharted 2, etc...I expect a few in the gaming media to view this game through total fanboy glasses instead of judging it for what it is. Look at the ridiculous preview at IGN for MW: Reflex.

me to - 2d platformers aint 'cool' anymore.

if a game hasnt got at least a couple of the following: realism, online or HD it will struggle to impress the media or so called 'hardcore gamers'

NSMBwii has none of the these, its a game that brings nothing new to gaming and thats how its gonna be reviewed (unfortunatley).
