Well Sony in their PS1 days made some games like this, not LIKE it, but games of this type and caliber. Nowadays it's mostly huge, grand projects, though I have no problem with that. Of course they make smaller caliber games too. But remember this was originally just a popular feature in SM3DW, or bonus stages.
I remember when 3D World came out, and the Captain Toad stages were my favourite stages in the game. I also wrote on Miiverse that I would really like a full game just with Captain Toad stages... Other people wanted it too. Maybe Nintendo looked on Miiverse? I personally don't think that was a huge reason for making the game, but still, awesome. And yet I haven't bought the game. Need to get this asap.
Well this turned out to be somewhat off topic but at least I managed to get in one point in the start... I need to start to actually answer the topic questions...
Yep.
