I'mma be real; NSMBDS being called "safe and bland" kinda riles me up. Like, it was literally made to reintroduce 2D Mario when there hadn't been a new one since Land 2. Of course there wouldn't be a major gameplay shakeup because doing that wasn't the focus.
Plus, it's always used retroactively. I can see how the later NSMB games got repetative, but NSMBDS doesn't deserve the same level of flack on account of being the first one IMO.
all of this is looking over the fact that nsmbds was my first mario platformer btw; i'm tryin not to be biased here
