I played 3D world entirely solo and I had a marvelous time. I don't get why people think multiplayer held it back.

I'd say that the "diminishing returns" on NSMB are due to the fact the Wii U didn't sell well to begin with. Even then, NSMBU was one of the system's most successful games, and Mario Maker is essentially an installment of the series because it uses NSMB's overall gameplay. For all the poo poo NSMB2 got it's the fifth best selling 3DS game of all time, so. There's still an audience there. There's still steam in 2D Mario. It's one of those cases where the prevailing attitude among fans differs highly from that of the public.

The thing though is that NSMB exists because it was a response to a niche that people were asking for and clearly still want a helluva lot. Yeah, maybe it exists because it's somewhat easier to produce, but I don't think you can say it's something that they've FLOODED stuff with so much as they wanted a big franchise represented on both their consoles for their respective lifespans. It's just that the Wii U died fast and the 3DS didn't. I mean, MK8 and MK7 aren't separated by that much time either. I don't think there's anything wrong with going back to that well if it sells well enough, and there's something timeless about 2D Mario gameplay that I can pick it up and have fun with any installment. Your mileage may very of course. But I don't think that's keeping Nintendo from taking risks; look at Odyssey.

They kind of did the whole "Bowser tries to beat Mario at his own game" in 3D World with him using the power ups, so I'm somewhat conflicted.

I just meant that in the sense that Bowser has done a boss fight where he emulates Mario before. The hat thing sounds super cool but part of me also wants to see Bowser with his own tricks.

It's almost like pedigree and consistent quality have an impact on people's expectations and reactions. EDIT - he has PS4 in his name, also.

I’m disappointed other peopl don’t seem to like the Broodals as much as I do. There’s something charmingly Looney Tunes about them. And Rango takes after Goofy. How can you not love that?

so it turns out there is a point to buying moons If you max out the moon counter to 999 by buying moons, you get a secret ending where Peach's castle now has a top hat on it. If you climb to the top and throw Cappy onto the point of the hat, it plays a special animation.

another tip for fighting Broodals: if you whack the first bomb Hariet sets in her attack phase after you've jumped on her head, it'll shoot up and knock her out of her helmet.

The filler moons aren't really filler. They're there so progression isn't gated behind skill that's beyond what kids are capable of. They allow the difficulty curve to be adjusted for children; they do those "sillier", "easier" moons, progress, learn more about the game, and get better, and then go back for the others.

Luigi's Balloon World is pretty great. Makes getting coins pretty trivial though.
