I disagree, the NSMB series as whole doesnt come close to Mario 3 or World, but maybe standards have dropped over the years.

Considering that to me SMB3 is the greatest game ever made and SMW is in my all-time top 10, topping that is a tough act to pull off. In fact, I doubt there will ever be a game made that will be more perfect than SMB3. That being said, I've played both NSMBWii and NSMBU, and they're both solid games that I'd rate at least a 9/10. And I do have very exacting standards when it comes to games. I'm as picky as they get, and there's few games I would ever consider worthy of a 9/10 score, and maybe a dozen ever worthy of a Perfect 10. Of course, I rate games heavily on gameplay and how much fun I had, so while some people might consider NSMB's sequels to be "uninspired" I think they're a blast, and they're some of the best 2D platforming I've experienced in the past decade (though to be fair 2D platformers aren't as common as they used to be) and are every bit as fun as I'd expect from a Mario game.

It doesnt have to be perfect but it does have to be close. Im not saying the newer games are bad im saying they lack the feeling that they actual give some kind of a crap. NSMB for DS is one of the most overrated games IMHO. THey actually removed alot of stuff from Mario World. THey added one powerup that you used in about four levels? and a bunch of minigames (i did enjoy Luigis poker, hell i think i played that more than the actual game). NSMBWii, thought the MP was horrible, but the game itself was a better game than the DS one. Better level designs and such. NSMB2, pretty clear they rushed that out to have something for 3ds, its still fun. NSMBWiiU just burned out at this point. ANd honestly Id say Rayman Origins is a better game than all of them. There not bad but IMHO there are better games in the genre if people actual got out their comfort zone and cared to look. Or ill just stick to the better Marios and save money.
