Are we gonna pretend that one of this game's biggest flaws is how utterly lacking in personality it is and that the Mario IP would inherently solve that at least partially with its world and general design briefs? (Supers, items, stage hazards...)
Admitedly, Mario Sports titles have greatly suffered from univerlisation of UI, dripfed and incomplete games, or a few games missing the mark altogether on delivering the Mario spice but yes, a Mario coat of pain WITH a decent amount of everything it implies would have led to better reception.
