I am the only one who thinks this game looks like it could be easily a Wii game?

Way to show the raw power of your new console nintendo...

I would much rather have something like this instead of that same old NEW super mario bros-style:

This would have felt fresh! It looks fantastic!!

I really like this look.  I would love Nintendo to implement it in a 2D mario game myself.

I'm actually ok with the lack of color saturation.  It'd be a new look.  Sort of like going from Wind Waker to Twilight Princess.

I hope so. At the moment, it's the only reason I feel compelled to purchase the system.

I also believe this game will be better than the 3DS game, even if it won't be as addicting - I mean, DLC and challenges in NSMB2 could become quite addicting.

This is definitely THE reason to get Wii U for me. Scribblenauts also looks fantastic to play with the gamepad.

Those screens, especially the first one, are wonderful looking! I have Murumasa, so I know a bit about nice 2D visuals. You keep mentioning Rayman as well so I think I am going to need to rent that soon.

Beat Muramasa twice and that looks better than NSMBW imho as well

its a 2d Mario, those games never show off the power of the console.  Never have and i suspect it wont, thats what 35 Mario is for

This thread is not about other games looking better then NSMBU, so can i ask you why do you keep bringing up that other 2D platformers look better then it?.

spurgeonryan said that that this game is about as good as 2d platformers can look, i disagreed and gave him examples of games that do look better. There a problem with that??
