i wouldn't mind but i don't think it would go over very well with the public in general as a straight 2D game.

currently playing: Skyward Sword, Mario Sunshine, Xenoblade Chronicles X

I don't mind it, and it can work (I just replayed Klonoa).

I have nothing against the look of 2.5D, and have enjoyed a number of games that are that way. However, I have often felt that the resources used to make it look that way could be better used; I would much rather have it be true 2D with 10x the levels than the visual beauty of 2.5D.

Actually, I think it's a lot easier to make it with 3D models moving in a 2D plane than it is to make it all with sprites.

I would like to see a big franchise with a sprite based 2D platformer for a home system. The WarioLand for Wii looked okay, but not half as good as Murumasa. I want a Mario or DKC or Sonic with Murumasa quality true 2D.

NSMB:Wii from what i know is being handled with 3D models moving in 2.5D... Not sprites... if i'm wrong someone correct me...

I think that they never should do a 3D version of NSMB... I keep the 3D ones separate from the 2D ones, and Galaxy 2 is on the way, so we'll get a 3D Mario and a 2.5D Mario...

BTW, i join the petition for a FULL 2D Mario, with high-res sprites and a lot of levels, that could get sold on either the DS or Wiiware...

I thought 2.5D was "isometric" stuff, like Flickie's Island and Equinox. So now it's all about 3D tricks in 2D games such as late 90's Capcom / SNK fighters?

Oh how times have changed.
