I don't like the music I've heard so far in the DS version, it's hard to believe that Sega could get someone to do such an awesome soundtrack for Sonic Rush and then completely drop the ball when it came to SMB. Sega should've taken advantage of online for Party Mode as well. Also, they are charging full price for the game like it is brand new while 1/2 of the courses are from the console versions. Above all that I've heard that the touch-screen control isn't as good as the analog control... though this could be fixed by the final version things still don't look to good for SMBDS imo. Shame too, I was looking forward to it.
