Ya I agree to an extent
With the first New Super Mario Bros. on DS, it was the first original 2D Mario in about 14 years so it felt pretty fresh.
New Super Mario Bros. Wii introduced 4 player, simultaneous co-op so again it felt pretty fresh and new.
The 3DS & Wii U entries however didn't really add anything new or shake up the formula which makes the "New" series not really feel new anymore despite still being great games.
I feel like Mario Maker is a step in the right direction and can bring some new concepts/creativity to a series that has become too formulaic.
When the herd loses its way, the shepard must kill the bull that leads them astray.
