These days you have to. Yes I agree stay with your base etc etc but if we did there would be no smash bros no mario kart and no mario galaxy as mario would be stuck in his 2d side scrolling adventures.
You have to move with the times especially these days as more people are having shorter attention spans so a game that I used to play on Action 52 called Dino Tennis. Was fun once upon a time, people wouldnt these days.
Look at the reception of Sonic 4 ep1. People complained about it, though it is the closest to the Mega Drive days. Things have to change... and successfully. Sonic is a great 2D character which is why he hasn't exactly flourished in the new generations, and it is also why we havent seen a new alex the kid or wonder boy. They would look out of place.
Another example Duke Nukem used to be a 2D scroller. That was a while ago, so was Metroid haha
