I like that the classic/mellow mode switch allows for it to be chill and accessible without removing the potential for challenge. Best of both worlds, look like.

It's also nice to see a retail 2D platformer. The attitude that the genre should be restricted to $10 indie games is toxic as fuck.

Few big companies would dare to waste milions of dolars and spend years of working on a 2D platformer.

And I apreciate that from Nintendo, a lot. 

If wasn´t for them the only 2D platformer at retail  for homeconsole with high production values in years would be Rayman Legends... before that Origins, and before that... I can´t think on a single one more.

For good or for bad, only Nintendo dares to do things like Tropical Freeze, Rainbow Curse, Epic Yarn, Woolly World, etc.

For good if you ask me.

The industry is homogenous enough already without another great genre being relegated to the indie cesspit.
