What I honestly think: two player Mario with one person using the cursor seems awesome. One player having to click a bunch of crap while running around (which is how it was when I played it at E3 2006) is just dumb. It didn't ruin the game, but it didn't make sense. I mostly agree with what I wrote above, even though it is totally pretentious sounding. I don't think it's wrong to think about games, either. But I reposted my dissertation only as a joke, since there was an argument about it last week and I missed the whole thing, dammit.
