is totally true, an example of this is the game of the metroid saga that nintendo announced at this year's e3 metroid Dread is its name and has polished graphics but is in that 2d that made the saga so famous in its time and yep I hate sometimes how they take fabulous games in 2d and turn them into 3d abominations, something more current in 2d and not so much since it has a time that I could recommend is a hack that you can play on an emulator of the nintendo ds new super mario bros which is practically a new game but made by fans, the truth is very good, if from the beginning they did not tell you that fans would believe that it is an official nintendo game.
