From the article:
"New Super Mario Bros. Wii has the potential to merge casual and hardcore gamers in a single Mario platform-to-flag-pole bound. How many times do Wii Sports-loving players say, "I like games, but they're too complicated these days. I used to play, like, original Mario and stuff." Then, they proceed to force their skilled friends to go yet another round in bowling or attend one more session of Brain Age Academy. Nintendo's 2D Mario solution seems like the perfect middle for all types of gamers and there's no excuse for casual gamers to sit out since every one of them cites Super Mario Bros. for NES as the game they used to play before the Splinter Cell's of the world made things all complicated and scary."
Super Mario Bros. Wonder is the first Mario 2D game in almost two decades without the New Super Mario art style, and it looks all the better for it
Am I missing something? It looks exactly the same, just higher resolution… Is this sarcasm?
Yes, you're not observant if you think it looks exactly the same. It immediately appeared different to me from the start. Mario's 3D model will always be the same, so not much difference there. However, the animation they've given the Super Mario Wonder makes it look more like a CGI Mario animation where as the New Mario Bros game looks more like typical video game animation movements

You really didn't notice the difference? It's really obvious, I was surprised when I first saw the trailer.
This Mario game looks great, getting a switch for this and Mario RPG. CANT WAIT, TITS JACKED.
Yeah I liked how much more emotion could be conveyed through the new style at first glance I didn't see much difference but then rewatching the trailer I'm seeing more and more animations that remind me of the Mario artwork from the manual of smb3
I hated the new super Mario bros Style. This new one seems a lot more expressive and less generic. I hope it's a good game
I prefer the 2d Mario's. Me and my girl have played them all together and mario galaxy , Mario odyssey. The 2nd player option is extremely eh

Super Mario U is a great one that reminds me alot of Super Mario World on snes. When ran in 4k@60fps on pc, it's hard not to love it.

Well if Little Big Planet went 3d with Dreams then I guess marios going 3D maker next, looking forward to that
I think going forward it would be redundant to have another NSMB game on the Switch as the Mario Maker series can accomplish almost anything the NSMB series have level-wise.
I’d rather have a Zelda Maker. The dungeon builder on the new upcoming Zelda: Links Awakening looks like a testing ground.

Aonuma hinted at the possibility of Chamber Dungeons evolving into a Zelda Maker game in an interview with Kotaku during E3. Reporter Jason Schreier asked Aonuma directly if a Zelda Maker was in the cards, to which Aonuma replied:
“I can’t predict the future, but if people do love this idea of arranging dungeons, I’ll keep that in mind going forward.”
2D fun all over again.
Day 1 for me. :)
Is looking at MW2 as being the best selling game in 09, I feel this game will be. Either this or WSR.
