Oh look mister high and mighty telling us who qualifies as a mario fan and who does not. Dude, get over yourself.

It has nothing to do with me, it has to do with people who pretend to know what makes Mario great, yet know nothing about what, at its roots, made Mario great.

I'm sick of people letting Nintendo go on a total lack of effort when it comes to the imaginative and mystical side of Mario, and make fun of people who look at other things than gameplay, when the other things than gameplay were what made Mario great in the first place.

Get out of your cave and get with the program.

Well shit, blame it on our CoD-gaming generation, where we love playing the same bullshit for years on end. In my honest opinion, Gamers are not very keen on sudden innovation(or in this case, change) and Nintendo is a business, why the fuck would they do a 180 on the very popular and still high selling (platform)Mario franchise and jeopardize it? Maybe a much-more story focused Mario that is also a platformer, could sell well but who knows?

Who are you to tell us what makes a game great? That is a ridiculously subjective part of the game and ENTIRELY up to the gamer. I could say "RE5 was awesome cause it had so much action. I love action and zombies!" Another gamer will say, " I love RE5 cause black chicks are hot." You can't tell them that those two specific aspects of the game aren't what makes the game special TO THEM, doesn't matter how or what genre the franchise started in.

Matter fact, why not start one of those petitions you Nintendo "hardcore" fans seem to be bring up about EVERYTHING. Go ahead, I'll wait here.
