True. But I think the PSV is favoured by VG journalists. It doesn't help the device, but still.

 

Funny thing is, PSV games are compared to PS3 games and get trashed and 3DS games are compared to PSV games and get trashed even more. That's how it feels to me.

NSMB 2 is still a fine game, no doubt, but time was when a new Mario platformer was something of an event. In his review earlier this week, Oli claimed to be "blasphemously bored" for portions of the game, and as a fellow Mario fan I'd be inclined to agree. When an argument can be made that it's not even the best platformer of the week - Jonathan Mak's musical oddity Sound Shapes may be flawed but it's undeniably the more inventive game of the two - then you have a cause for concern.

You are right.

Yet Eurogamer.net gave...

• New Super Mario Bros. 2 = 8/10
• Sound Shapes = 7/10
