I've been watching some New Super Mario Bros. Wii gameplay...
PNQ1: Does four-player co-op really work as an enjoyable experience for all?
The footage I saw seemed to imply that there was always going to be one player far ahead and one player straggling behind. Someone is always going to be stealing the powerups, and someone is always going to be mucking up the plan by warping ahead (pipes, whatever) before someone else is ready.
Furthermore, given my bile for the two generic Toads as Players 3 and 4...
PNQ2: Would a focused two-player mode go over better?
