"Mario 3D World ... plays a lot like previous 3D Marios."
So, why people are complaining about Super Mario 3D World levels having a less open world than previous 3D Mario or the presence of a timer ? Why are they fearing the absence of an overworld ?

"A game with the same exact char doing diff things is not realy a new ip, merely a spin off."
By this definition, Are Super Mario RPG and Paper Mario spin off of Super Mario series ? Knowing that primarily Mario Bros was destined to be a spin-off of Donkey Kong arcade...

Well they all do belong to the same mario brand that extends to diff game play series, but retains familiar characters so yes. I don't consider it a new ip unless they change the setting/story and characters.
