^I love this post. Five stars.
As a dedicated Nintendo gamer, I can tell you, I am starting to be either frustrated at Nintendo, or upset at myself.
1) Frustrated at Nintendo because they are not giving me what I'm expecting, i.e. top top quality on their AAA game here.
2) Upset at myself for not realizing this sooner, that NSMB is not made to push gaming, it's made to push a buck.
Having said that, I'm sure the platforming side of NSMB 2 will be fun, it will be great, it will likely see a much needed return to faster-paced classic 2D mario action, but when it comes to presentation, I am completely underwhelmed, EVEN when it pertains to the simplistic theme of NSMB. The presentation reaks of cash-in.
