Nintendo's thinking about enhancing the originals. Only graphics.

Awesome. I'd be fine with just improved resolutions, but that's cool.

As long as it still kinda retains that old school 'feel', I cant complain too much. And if the price is right (ie: Monthly fee or yearly fee instead of pay per download, i hate that...) I'll do it.

But damnit Nintendo, make new games that can still feel Mario'ish. You tried with the GC and the effort was good but jsut wasnt as great as past games. Hopefully they dont lose their touch with the hopeful Mario launch game.

It was a collection of classic Sega games with updated graphics and stuff. I've never actually played it, but from all that I've read, the classics were basically ruined. Not in the "Oh no! They don't and sound exactly the same way!" kind of ruined, but in the "These games suck" kind of ruined.

Basically, they killed the gameplay.

So...
