Hub world with open exploration, a la 64 and Sunshine. I want that so, so bad. The Galaxy games were great, and 3D World was fun (if a huge step backwards in every way imaginable), but I don't like linearity in my 3D Mario games. That's what the 2D ones are for. And as long as I'm dreaming, make the hub world really big and make it like an adventure game with abilities and whatnot. Super Mario Adventure, man.

Unfortunately for me Nintendo and just about everyone else prefers a linear, simplistic Mario, so I'm out of luck.

Don't lose the hope. 3DWorld was not the huge hit Nintendo expected, so the message was clear: not to continue with the same style 3DWorld.

A third of the people with Wii U's bought the game.  I kind of assumed that made it a success, brought down only by the small install base, and that Nintendo would continue with those types of games because they're easier and everyone still likes them.
