HEY, WHERES THE GOOD OLD FASHOINED HUMOR!?!?!
With the new charaters, It was pretty wierd. I'm used to seeing charaters like Peach and Mario (which means I'm used to seeing fat, ugly people) and then seeing these ones. WHOA MAMA!!! The damsal need to be ugly or something in order to get me over my insanity.
But there's one thing that drove me nuts even more. THE MUSIC! I was expecting funny sounding waltzes and goofy jazz jigs, not that wierd, ancient junk done by Rare's Dave Wise (I liked the DK songs better). I mean they could of threw in the Dr. Mario Fever theme or something like that.
The story was kinda of bland, since I more about comedy and mischif than listening to the same old bold-hero-saves-the-world kind of story.
The game did have good graphics though, but the building looked dull and the charaters were a little "wierd", but hey, I played Super Smash Bros. Melee and it made that game (Melee gets knocked here) look like the charaters were made of plastic.
Overall, this game is exremly serouis, and if you can't stand epic stories, then you might want to play a Mario game.
