New Super Mario Bros. 2 is not what I want

^But it isn't what we know and love, that's the whole issue I have.

And it really aggravates me that dedicated fans like D21 (who is on my 3DS friends list, we are friends I love his swapnotes) just don't get it.

If NSMB2 ends up winning my heart regardless of the graphics, then all the power to Nintendo, but as it is, the way these pics show, it is not the Mario we know and love from our childhood, it is a new one ridden with cheesy storylines, cheesy voice acting, CHEESY art on backgrounds, cheesy cheesy cheesy, I (censored) hate it.

3D Land, Galaxy, Luigi's Mansion, Mario 64, Sunshine, whatever new Mario game they come up with for the Wii U, etc.:  Push graphics. 

New Super Mario and Paper Mario (to a degree):  Retro graphics

Mario Party, Mario Golf, Mario Tennis and Mario Kart:  Standard graphics

@bold. Yeah! I know (good point). But does Retro graphics need to = cheesy graphics??? :(  D21, put yourself in my shoes. I don't know by now if you know how much I love Super Metroid and the original Punch Out!! Now, what if those games, retro as they are, were to get proper revivals (not Other M, not Punch Out!! Wii), I mean games that don't feel rushed, with good music, that feel just complete. What would their graphics look like??

And since those are 2D games, why not put the effort in? If they could do it 25 years ago with an 8-man team, why can't they do it today with 20-men teams, large budgets and great software tools. It's just all beyond me, ... unless what Lord C. says is true.

@WiiBox3, thanks WiiBox3, that's probably what I'm gonna do! I already semi-regret my 3D-Land purchase, it was so-so.
