Thinking "casual"="party game" shows why you don't get why the mainstream isn't into intensive play games, and Mario 3D is that kind of game. |
It's true though. Wii Sports Resort, Mario Kart, Brawl and now NSMB. These are the best selling Wii games because they can be played socially.
Mario Galaxy has a very pick up and play design and is actually much, much easier than NSMB. The controls and mechanics are simple. It's not Metroid. It's very casual friendly. But like I said, it's not a social game, which is why it hasn't had the same success as the biggest Wii games.
