Title: Video inserts too much
Product review: We gave this to my 7-year-old son b/c he is a HUGE Mario fan, and he stopped playing after a day b/c he's tired of the long video inserts in the game. I guess they're trying to set up a storyline, but the kids just want to play, not sit through several 2-3 minute videos. And if you don't reach the 1st spot where the game will save, you have to sit through all of them again. I don't know why all of the recent Mario games insist on making you wade through "extras" (you have to hit the "A" button 100 times to get through different intro screens for each event on Winter Olympics...painfully tedious), but we've really soured on "Mario" games because of it and won't be buying any more.
