If Cranky Kong were around, he'd be mocking everything about New Super Mario Bros. 2. He'd probably say things like...
*What is this nonsense about collecting 1 million coins?! Waste of time if you asked me.
*This game is way too friendly with its 1-ups. Back in my day, you'd be lucky to get more than three lives, and it was better that way too.
*Warp Cannons? Find me one that'll take me out of this game, and I'll be there.
*Lose five lives and you'll get an Invincibility Leaf? Seriously, in my day, you're on your own.
*Gold Flower? More like a big piece of trash. In fact, all of these power-ups are just pathetic. Super Mushrooms and Fire Flowers are all that we need here.
