3D Mario is now going to be split up in a multiplayer and singleplayer version. This version can't be ruined by multiplayer since that's the entire focus. That's the point.

"Please understand..."

Do we have any real guarantee they will continue with  single player Mario 3D though, or will they throw that in the trash in favour of this NSMBified laziness?

Yes, Money and sales. There is a very, very small change that Nintendo would ignore a 10 million seller like 3D Mario Singleplayer in their current state.

Maybe they figure they can just replace it with this "NSMB in 3D" crap, like they replaced 2D Mario with 3D in the 90s.
