The thing about New Super Mario Bros is that it strikes me as what would happen if Nintendo never did Super Mario Bros 3 and just kept going in the same way they did 1 and 2 for the rest of the series. They add new minor mechanics but overall the game stays largely the same and doesn't do anything to surprise you. I still play it, but the "new" title really just doesn't fit it anymore.

Actually, Sumo Bros are the ones from Mario World that stomp the ground and drop lightning/fire on you. Those guys on the ship were Sledge Bros.

Apparently, the developers had planned to make Miis playable in every level, but decided against it at some point, possibly because Miis look really ugly in a platformer.

They made a big deal about "New Super Mario Bros Mii" at E3 one year. There's no reason they couldn't have kept that feature.
