Nintendo: Let the Games Play Themselves

Like Strangler said, people paid for the game. It sucks to be stuck in a certain part. Anyway, chances are that people are going back to that part to solve it themselves.

And you're right, movies/books and games aren't the same. With movies and books you can always skip a part if you don't like it. With games that was never possible. If you got stuck in the beginning, you couldn't enjoy the reste of the game. Until now.

Explain to me again why that is a bad thing?

I didn't say it was bad.

I just think it's an option for sissies. Especially considering Mario games are not that hard to begin with.
