Ok, I can kinda appreciate EXACTLY what you're talking about now. So yeah I agree to an extent on the whole art debate. What I do not agree with at all in any way shape or form though is that NSMB is not art or visually interesting or relevant. It caters to a wide demograph, which is rare for any game to do and for NSMB to do it so successfully I think is a testament to the creative teams at Nintendo. Also, having played NSMB from the first on the DS to the latest on the WiiU, I can tell you there has been a refinement - some of the levels on NSMBU are just sublime, really well thought out and beautifully presented. I think we'll just have to agree to disagree on this one. |
@Fox and Majora. I think we're finally getting somewhere.
Though for sure I can accept that the art direction pleases some, I do believe that if we dug a bit deeper we would see that Nintendo, as a market leader and producer of this multi-million dollar grossing series, may have a thing or two to learn when it comes to art style (visual and musical).
The one thing I need you to know (because I don't want you to be surprised) is that I played through the DS, Wii and 3DS version, and only played through the first few levels of the U version (haven't bought it yet). So tread lightly there.
