Okay, then what about the whistles? When you get those, you could finish the game in 1/10th the time it would take to beat SMW.
Also, I hardly think SM3 was more challenging than SMW. The only thing that made it seem more difficult were the semi-sloppy controls compared to SMW. Fix those, and they're pretty much even in terms of difficulty.
