NSMBU is to Super Mario World what Sonic 4 is to Sonic The Hedgehog 2. A mediocre product designed to play on your nostalgia in order to make a quick buck. Nintendo and Sega are businesses after all.
I'm pretty sure it is impossible to say that based on 3 shown levels and the fact that the game isn't out yet. Whether you wanted a different kind of Mario or not I am sure NSMBU will be an excellent game. They haven't made a bad Mario platformer.
Also true story, I thought SMW was the best 2D mario for years. However, I also believe that NSMB Wii trumped it and is now the holder of that title. The thing that really made SMW have such staying power was its overworld design...which they really need to bring back for a game.
