Super Mario Galaxy 2 to have a “veteran” appeal

Nintendo has been under fire ever since the introduction of the Wii, potentially sacrificing their hardcore gamer audience for a broader, casual audience. Even Mario games have become more simpler to finish than older installments of the franchise. Speaking to Nintendo Power magazine, Shigeru Miyamoto had this to say about the “veteran” appeal of the upcoming Super Mario Galaxy 2:

“I do believe that there is a lot here to appeal to the more veteran and more experienced gamers, and I think it’s a title that they will obviously enjoy, but I really took it into consideration and tried to do our best to create a game that’s accessible to new gamers as well,” Miyamoto explained. “And, you know, we also built it with consideration that we believe that people who played through the first Mario Galaxy have become better players.”

It’s not always about the difficulty of the game, it’s more of an expectation that the developer has for the gamer. If the developers decide that because their audience might not understand some of the concepts presented in the game, then those concepts could be greatly altered and change the overall experience and richness of the game. Miyamoto usually never lets us down and always delivers us fun games, so we can only hope that he is trying his best.

Super Mario Galaxy 2 will be out sometime next year for the Wii.
