Unless you're careful, there's a tendency for games like Mario that can be played by children to gradually become childish. Those making the game tend to unconsciously make them that way.
Taking how Mario's line can be scripted as an example, they even propose to write, "Where'd my mommy go?". When someone in their fifties like me hears their player-character speak childishly like that, it doesn't quite sit right. After all, Mario wasn't a game only for children in the first place. As I make a game, I try to keep in mind that guys in their fifties will play it, too.
We go back and forth about other issues, as well. "Can we make Mario speak?" "No, Mario is the player, so he shouldn't talk." Like that. But he does say things like "mamma mia," so someone will be like, "Wait wait... He's talking, isn't he?!" (laughs)
But that's not necessarily a bad thing. When it comes to whether a game should be childish or less childish or Mario should talk or he shouldn't... (IWATA) those things aren't essential (END IWATA)
Exactly. I realized when I talked to Koizumi-san that those things aren't essential. Whether or not the game world resonates with you as you're playing the game is what's most important. For example, when you watch a big-budget movie, you may be amazed by all the pyrotechnics, but at the same time, something isn't quite striking home with you.
Genius.
Hey Namco, maybe you should take a hint from what Google are doing to celebrate Pac-Man's 30th birthday, make the game playable on Google!
Seriously - go to google.com, and you're able to go play the original game.
Yeah, I saw that just now on GAF. Seems pretty interesting.
That's a Square game, and they've had tons of DLC on all platforms, including Wii, before.

Ah... Good times, good times...
Nintendo did the impossible, or the most difficult thing for any developer to do: surpass or improve on perfection!
I usually don't like Edge reviews, but what they said in their review of SMG2 is right-on:
"This isn’t a game that redefines the genre: this is one that rolls it up and locks it away."
Well said!
Hope they could do this with Zelda!
