I agree with the OP. The letdown with this game is enormous. The number of players disappointed by this game is bigger than the number of players happy.
I bought a 3DS for Mario 3D Land and Mario Kart 7. I would have bought a Wii U for Galaxy 3 or a real Super Mario game (64, Sunshine), but actually, the revelation of this game make me want not to buy the Wii U.
If a lot of long time Nintendo fans don't even want to buy it, then the game is not going to succeed. Nintendo lost a lot of consumers with this pathetic effort.
The Wii U sales are beyond terrible, and this game will do nothing to help the console. Can you imagine people spending more than 300€ to play this game? I can't, and I won't.
I hope it fails and the Wii U fails as well this year. It may correct Nintendo attitude the next years. |
I dont see this one game causing people to buy the console but the combination of 3D World, DKC, Wii Fit, Wii Party, Wind Waker, Sonic Lost World, Pikmin 3, W101, plus the 10 or so multiplats releasing, new markwting push and possible price cut will def lead many people to get a Wii U this holiday. Its clear Nintendo Iisnt relying on 1 single game to save Wii U but anstead a steady stream of quality software. This will also give it the momentum it needs and next year they plan on continuing that with the big system sellers in Mario Kart and Smash Bros along with core supporting titles like X and Bayonetta.

DKCTP, Pikmin 3, W101 and Sonic are nice, but that won't sell me a new 300$ console.
Mario Kart and 3D Mario are bigger seller. Mario 3D world is pure crap and Mario Kart 8 is released in 2014. Nintendo is naked for this holiday and the Wii U will have a deserved flop.

Well thats where u went wrong, just because those games wont make u buy the console doesnt mean everyone else feels the same way. Also how do u know its pure crap? Because it doesnt push the console to its limits graphically? Im pretty positive it will still a very fun game especially with the co-op which is something we havent seen in a 3D Mario.
Theres still a good chance we will see a Mario Universe down the line. There was 6 years in between 64 and Sunshine, and another 5 until Galaxy. The only reason Galaxy 2 came out so much sooner was because it used the same engine as 1 and was mostly ideas they couldnt fit/finish in time for Galaxy. It only been 3 years since Galaxy 2 and id be surprised if we didnt see a huge ambitious 3D Mario by 2015.
