Morgan Webb rants about Super Mario Galaxy 2, hilariously bad reasons

New Powerups

New Playable Characters such as Luigi and Yoshi

More Linearity 

Star Bits that you can use to buy new levels

Entirely new gameplay mechanics that revolve around the idea of moving around on the planet's 3D surface instead of its 2D surface in 64

Discount those reasons for Galaxy just being a recycled 64.

Removing redundancies. Things like new levels(seriously?).  Every game has 'new levels'.   I'm talking on a legitimate sense.  These above are the 'improvements' to the Mario series in 14 years. 

- Linearity

- Star Bits

-Powerups

-Playable Characters

- Walking on 3D Surfaces

I would say a good portion of those features we have witnessed games add between sequels in the same generation a year or two apart.  14 years later and one of the big innovations is 'Collecting Star Bits?'.  Since when is Linearity something that is applauded?   You're making my case for me.
