I have somewhat given up on 2D Mario, because I feel Nintendo has given up on 2D Mario. Neither the 2D Mario for the 3DS or the one for the Wii U were particularly that good. And then we get Mario Maker, which was a really fun game, but it also makes it seem like Nintendo doesn't want to do 2D Mario anymore, so they just let the players make the levels now.
Having said all that, I really hope Nintendo proves me wrong. I really enjoy a good 2D Mario when they actually make one. And on top of that a good 2D Mario is even more of a killer app than a good Pokemon game. But for the last couple of 2D Marios, I think Nintendo is really phoning it in.
curl-6 bet me that PS5 + X|S sales would reach 56m before year end 2023 and he was right.
