New SMB was neat at its release, but it doesn't hold up well. The game is pretty basic by Mario standard and easy as it gets. By going the 3D route, they opened up nearly infinite possibilities for new ideas that largely went wasted for the sake of keeping things simple for the damn non-gamers. In fact, I'd go as far as to say there was little to nothing in New SMB that couldn't have been done one Super Nintendo easily.
With lots of outlets calling New SMB2 the hardest in the series, clearly this game is going to kick ass. They're actually using the hardware to do some cool stuff this time out. I'm excited.
