Baffled why they didn't just call this New Super Mario World.
Probably gonna get some spoiler complaints
Because it still shares much more in common with the NSMB series than SMW, with which it shares very little.
fixed the post... i took it from a videoreview anyhow

All they needed was to throw some Mario World remixes and add more secret exits and it's be enough to get away with it.
I just really want a new SMW
That's both Mondo and Tubular. Possibly even Way Cool.

Why would you do that?

I just listened to the first minute or so of the video, without looking. If only the rest of the game got the same musical treatment...
Because no game is worthy.

5 player looks great fun, from watching the Quick Look but the controller cost and logistics of having 4 other people to play with make it hard to get excited about.
Why would you do that?

When playing games with collectibles like this, I actually feel like it's better to not go back in and get all the collectibles until post-game. A few reasons.
- You will see any false/bad endings for not getting 100%.
- You will get more variety from the game (not playing the same level over and over).
- You may get more longevity from the game (incentive to replay levels post-game)

This is what I plan on doing - just play through story mode levels as quick as possible, then come back later and try to uncover the secrets and such.
Nope, 720p. The graphics in this game don't have anything to do with power. It's just the NSMB art style that doesn't look so hot.

Guess you're right. I'll be honest the gameplay doesn't look so hot either.
But people will still buy it in droves, I imagine.
Then Nintendo will make another one....
OMGGGGGG.
It depends on what you say mandatory.
"Every game should have a multiplayer OPTION ?" Yes for console games.
"Every game must have at least 2 players to be able to finish" No way for any mario game except MAYBE mario party
A thousand times no.
This is what led to arbitrary crap multiplayer modes in games that didn't need them.
Such as Dead Space 2.
Awesome video! Gameplay looks solid for the most part, but that music, holy wow. It's bad enough that it almost feels like a troll.

This among other things is also what led to Insomniac not making true Ratchet games anymore but focusing on social and multiplayer aspects in their games instead now
going OT though with that
every game = every 2d mario
I don't see the problem for a 2d mario to have it as an option
Bowser's model looks really amazing, wow!
A lot of the comments on youtube say the same thing, so I'm wondering how more casual players perceive it.
That looked ridiculously easy! Just saying, no bashing intended...
Nice! IGN has some videos of it too!

I can't believe how bland NSMB music is. Galaxys is like in the top 3 of the generation and great music has always been important for Mario. Fire the music dude and let the Galaxy guy do all the Mario games thanks!
I couldn't help it and watched 30 seconds of the final Bowser battle and I have to say I'm probably too easy to please, but Bowser does look damn good!!
I really like Bowser's model it looks so detailed. My God!! the lighting when he shoots his fireballs!!
can't wait to see the rest of Nintendo franchises in HD!!!!
the next Smash Bros is going to be an eyergasm :O

Currently polling second in Australia's federal election (first in the Gold Coast), this feral may one day be your Bogan King.
Wasn't going to spoil, but
that's a pretty disappointing Bowser fight. I liked the trend of post-fight platforming runs that both NSMBW and NSMB2 had. This looked dull.
There's some more footage of it here:

Plus that videos shows that the
Propeller suit is back

You did in NSMB Wii as well...
Really? Man, I must've blocked that game from my memory. All I remember was the terrible shell power-down

That was only in NSMB DS wasn't it? NSMB Wii had the penguin suit, which was sort of similar, but more controllable.
The fudge? You did not play NSMBWii. Criminally few people seem to have bothered.
