As far as I´m concerned, these NSMB games don´t hold a candle to the originality and wealth of content the old 2D Mario games had back in their day.

SMB, SMB2, SMB3 and SMBW were all very different from one another, each game brought a lot of new rich content, while the NSMB games even share that (imo) terrible and very annoying 'wah wah' music.

With Mario Galaxy, you can even 'feel' the passion and hard work Nintendo put into the game, very different from Mario Sunshine and Mario 64, and the soundtrack is superb...while NSMB games share many of the same tired worlds, annoying music, etc...

Though I don´t enjoy Rayman games, i applaud Ubisoft for putting more 'passion' into the game than Nintendo has with modern 2D Mario games...that´s no way to treat the franchise that made the company relevant in the videogame business.
