New Super Mario Bros. 2 is not what I want

^You're partially right, partially wrong. The thing you don't know about me is that I'm a huge fan of classic games. I play them much more than I play modern games, with Galaxy, Prime, TP and SS having been the exception for me this gen.

I didn't like Epic Yarn, I didn't like DKR, I didn't like Other-M (and I own it). So what does that tell you, that I'm a troll??

Okay, you're right that I didn't really realize the extent of the possibilities of Nintendo going back and truly reviving the series, but YOU're the one who pointed that out to me. When you made me realize it, I figured "True, Zelda, Metroid and Mario should be properly remade in 2D", because there's a market for that.

I new NSMB would sell like crazy, and I was very excited for it. I actually bought my DS lite with it (but you don't know that). In fact you know very little of me, despite the time I've spent here, and most of all you know little about the time I've spent with classic games. That's where this thing got personal, you tried to label me a troll.

But sir, you missed the mark.

I don't think you're a troll, I just think you're entirely off the mark when it comes to the importance of graphics in videogames.  The fact that this thread is as big as it is happens to be a testament to the power of graphics whores.  

It's perfectly okay to like good graphics and dislike poor graphics, but when you put too much emphasis on the importance of graphics to the point you have a 35 page thread with a poll complaining about the perfectly fine and charming graphics in a game not being enough..well..that saddens me.  Truly BAD graphics can ruin a game, Great graphics can exhalt a game, but mid-range graphics do nothing either way. Acting like a game is crap or a developer isn't doing enough to make a game awesome becuase its GRAPHICS aren't top-of-the-line, innovative, or groundbreaking is not trolling, but it's pretty insulting to people who play and enjoy games becuase of the gameplay or how fun they are.  

sad.
