I love how expressive everything looks. It reminds me a bit of the older Sonic games (or Cuphead) in that there's a lot of personality there that New Super Mario Bros didn't have.

It's so much more expressive and looks like it has so much more creative energy than the New smb series. Excited to play this

The smb series started in 2006 on the DS and got the rework for the Wii in 2009. I am not sure this super animated style would have been possible. I am shocked it took them this long to give us a new side scrolling Mario.

With that being said I am really excited for this game. Looks incredible and I'm sure it'll be great.

It's refreshing to see a new style for a 2D Mario game. I'm really excited to see what all the wonder mechanics are.

Fun. It looks like they swapped out shrooms with salvia.

Looks amazing! Finally an actually new 2D Mario game.

Wow didn't expect to be excited for a Mario game!

Nintendo knocking it out of the park. It is a pity that their best games are coming at the perceived end of the generation.

If you look at the super Mario bros series they ported that through four systems. I'll sure they'll do the same for all these late releases. Easy cash grab for Nintendo.
