mm, Mario 64 DS was pretty lousy. They added minigames and a shittier control scheme.
And more characters that you never bother with.
Sunshine had some cool ideas like the old-school levels in 3D, but the whole water thing kind of took away from the fun of playing a Mario game.
We\'ll see what comes down the pike next.
There\'s been no word on Mario 128 except for two rumors. One is that it\'s become a true sequel to Mario 64.
The other is that it is still somehow based on the tech demo showing tons of little Marios running around. This was put into use for Pikmin, but from Miyamoto interviews, I get the feeling he\'s still working with this idea for Mario.
Who knows.
I\'m waiting for the new Mario DS game that\'s a 3D sidescroller.
That\'s the way to be.
