I'm sure a large part of it is nostalgia, yeah. I can agree with that. But I also genuinely have fun with the game itself, even though I've beaten a few a dozen times over my life. There are plenty of other games that are nostalgic for me that I don't really have fun with anymore, but keep around solely for their importance to my personal history. It isn't like that with SMW. It's a genuinely fun game for me.
This and even after not playing it for a few years, it's actually pretty damn interesting to rediscover practically everything in SMW even though you already know how to play the levels.
Honestly I would like to see a complete remake of SMW. Not because it's "oh hey nostalgia" or anything like that. It's partially because I feel like it'd be interesting to see what else can be done with a game that has been around for so long. As long as it doesn't have NSMB graphics and has it's own in favor of completely new graphics I'm all for it.
