Message: [QUOTE="Ikagura, post: 74597, member: 6930"] I think DS and Wii were fine but I legitimately though that Super Mario 3D Land and World both basically replaced NSMB as it was a new yet similar formula. In fact 3D Land was to me the 3rd NSMB game until they announced 2 and U. They even had the whole "collect 3 giant coins to unlock stuff/go further" thing that NSMB was about. NSMB Wii was because the return of Mario couldn't just be in handhelds (although usually handheld was the last bastion of 2D games back when home console had little to no 2D around the late PSX and PS2 era) and having 4 players at the same time on screen was a new gimmick. Only big downside is that playing the game in solo basically meant having huge empty spaces built with 4 players in mind. In fact NSMB DS was planned to have two players at the same time in coop but ultimately got relegated to versus multiplayer (which is considered as one of the best mode in any mainline Mario game). The game had some unique gimmicks and sections made for a strictly single player game which is why it felt a bit duller in Wii. I totally understand the nostalgia regarding Wii which was fairly more popular than DS but this being the main base for U and 2 when these could've had more differences just wasn't great. This video basically sums it well despite how the rest of the series kinda retroactively made people's perception of the first game less good.
