I'm also very tired of Mario as well, It was a great game but it lately it IS the definition of over use.
we said that when mario64 was announced.
danm it turned out to be a great game... (i havn't played mario anymore after sunshine)
anyway if there is 1 game the definition of over use and the name "money milking game" then that is CoD or 1 of those EA sports games that return every year whitout updates.
