I didn't get "dumbed down" at all. I got accessible mechanics and a better visual design that makes it apparent you're doing something right. Probably the more zoomed in look of the fighters and emphasis on combos. Basically saying it is more open to newcomers. Doesn't mean it's dumbed down at all. I think MvC3 is open to newcomers. But a skilled person will still mop the floor with them.
It's a good thing when developers pull off the difficult task of making a game accessible and easy to pick up and play, but still deep enough that hardcore players will remain engaged. We'll see if they can pull it off.
