The price point is the only thing that worries me..... 60 bucks is a bit much for Mario Paint 2

I'm super excited about it, but because of the price I think I'll wait till my Birthday in October. Even if you can't see yourself making levels, having a Mario game with a constant stream of new levels is like.....well ........it's the greatest thing ever.

Maybe it's just me. I haven't played a Mario game since Super Mario All-Stars.

I'm not saying it's not going to be a hit, I'm saying I would have been more excited by this a quarter of century ago.

Meh, one copy preordered for me, one for the friend with kids. I'm balls deep in it. Adios $110.

:cheers:

I think it's going to be really good for kids, not just in terms of enjoyment but for broadening their horizons. Looking back Mario Paint was what got me into modding and programming in a time when those weren't really a thing yet. Any game that tricks kids into learning procedural problem solving is good for their little kid brains.
