I just thought it was an insult to the games, which were more action-driven and had an arc developed over the Genesis titles. AOSTH came around at a period where the sort of comedy used to great effect in Mario Bros was starting to bore people. Captain N did'nt maintain it's darker edge either, and became slapstic.
SATAM made sure video game-based animated series got more respect and were handled the way they should have been (ok, Darkstalkers and Sonic X not withstanding), all this was was a glorified rehash of familiar concepts.
Of course, on the other hand, I love Scratch and Grounder, and the style of the show and what it was trying to do was innovative enough, but it had nothing of substance.
