Yeah they add a tad too many different gameplay mechanics. Sonic suddenly turns into a werewolf and becomes a beat-up platformer? That's not really a bad thing, but does change drastically the formula, which expectedly gives mixed results from long time fans.

Mario's the perfect definition of "ain't broke, don't fix it" The core gameplay mechanics in Mario have always been mostly the same but the formula works and is targetted as pretty much everyone regardless of age so it is well recieved after 30 years and new gamers are still likely to like it.
