Don't believe me?
Fun gameplay: well this is mostly based off of opinion, but the platforming/rpg hybrid is awesome.
Concepts: Character switching, flipping to 3d, RPG and platforming?
Story:
Tippi used to be lady Timpani, and count Bleck used to be lord Blumiere. Blumiere's father banished Timpani, so Bleck made the logical assumption that a world without her was not worth living in and he should destroy all the universes. Meanwhile, Merlon finds Timpani (in another dimension) dying, so to save her life, he turns her into a cute little bug thing called a pixl and she loses her memory. Count Bleck (who has been joined by Dimentio (master of illusion and trickery), Mimi (Shape-shfter) Nastasia (With hypnosis powers), and O'Chunks (Stupid brute)) hypnotizes Peach to marry Bowser to summon the chaos heart which can destroy all the universes, so Merlon sends tippi to get Mario and assemble the pure hearts (Crystals forged of love which can stop the chaos heart). On the way, Peach and Bowser join his party and become playable characters along side him, and Luigi gets hypnotized into a villain, but dimentio kills him and sends him to the Underwhere (Videogame afterlife) where Mario and his crew are looking for the second to last pure heart. He joins their party. They get the last heart, and go to stop count Bleck. They use the pure hearts on count Bleck, then Dimentio betrays count bleck and takes the chaos heart for himself. Then Dimentio combines himself, the chaos heart, and re-hypnotized Luigi to create a monster. The combined love from every dimension reactivates the pure heart, thus allowing Mario and his party to stop super Dimentio. Dimentio leaves behind a shadow of his power to finish the job. Since the pure hearts are inactive again, Count Bleck and Timpani (Who got her memory back at some non-specific point) get married, thus reforging the pure heart and stopping the chaos heart for good... And don't even get me started on some of the side characters like Luvbi.
Interesting characters: (See Story)
Good Music: Listen to that final boss music... and Mr L's theme... and the underground theme remix thing... I could go all day.
Graphics: For a cartoony wii game, pretty good.
