The fact that the controls are horrible compared to Galaxy kills a lot of the game for me. Mostly eight directions feels downright bad and they say it's because of Wiimote only players. Even then, you can tilt the stick ALMOST 45 degrees the next direction, and then you will not run in the predefined eight spots.
So why not give us stick players a full analog option? It can be good to have what we have now with the Gamepad and Pro controller missing the eight spots around the sticks. But going from Galaxy to 3D World with a nunchuk feels HORRIBLE! It feels EXACTLY like two of the minigames from Mario Party 9 which were platform stages. I don't want that feeling in a 3D Mario game.
That said, I enjoy the setup and general progression of the game, feels just right. But the whole thing compared to Galaxy? Not even close in my opinion.
Yep.
