With Nintendo, characters at least feel like they go together naturally, where as they don't seem to here.
It seems like more of a case of "Who is our audience for this game?" They don't know. The Nintendo crowd and the Sony crowd are pretty different. So they're trying to use their more mature properties in their Nintendo-style game.
On top of that, they don't seem to understand style or substance. Or what makes a character worthy of being in a game like this. For example, Parappa looks terrible in 3-D. They should have just kept him in his 2-D form as a throwback/nod to the fans. Fat Princess hasn't been around long enough to be a "Classic Sony Character" so we're at the first five characters and they're already scavenging for characters.
But hey, maybe I'm wrong.
And if there's no Crash or Spyro, this is wasted completely.
