Considering how long the Wii should last, I think it could be on the Wii in 3-5 years, towards the end of the generation, kinda like SMB3 or Yoshi's Island, which were released really late the last 2 times Nintendo's consoles were really long-lasting market leaders.

It really hurt comparing SMB2 to Sunshine like that. I think the games were great and people are just haters, but tried to rationalize their flawed hating. If you're referring to other flaws, I'd love to hear them.

While Mario Sunshine was very much a Mario Game if you played through the whole thing. Other than that I see where you are going but and I agree but I take a different path to get to that conclusion. I hope like SMW and SM64 they allow you to do the levels more openly, than Galaxy. You know more exploration and what not. |
I'd say SMB2 was definitely a Mario game, but was released early in Japan with different characters as Doki Doki Panic. Miyamoto made both games either way, but didn't decide to make it Mario until it was released worldwide. He's always switching up characters and design at the last minute like that.

Yoshi's Island was released after Super Mario World, and I'm just not crazy enough to try to predict 2 Mario games in advance to force a comparison.
