Those have turned up in fairy tales as well, haven't they? Mushroom Kingdom was inspired by the world of fairy tales in my opinion. That doesn't mean that it isn't brilliant. It just isn't quite as original as you think. Also, the princess being captured by the villain and rescued has been done in a million stories. I'm just saying. |
I understand that it's not all new, but a lot of it was new, and it's also very much in the presentation. Secret blocks and worlds in the sky, it was something of the extraordinary, really. This wasn't a game revolving around the sky like say Kid Icarus, it was a game about a regular jo who could jump really high. The concept of being flung into the sky defies reality and gives that sense of escapism. But marry that to whimsical music and adequate graphics and colors, and you have a win.
