Was I really? Huh, well, it certainly is an actrion-packed scene. Something that doesn't usually happen in Mario games. I can see how I'd be initially excited for the scene, but I think that excitement died down.

Because it takes you out of the experience, and pointless cutscenes shouldn't interupt the battle in the first place.

I heard somewhere that SM64 and SMS were developed by a different development team to SMG. Is that true?

Well, Nintrendo EAD developed Sunshine while EAD Tokyo developed Galaxy, but I think a lot of the same people worked on both games.

As long as I don't think the boss battle cutscenes are "pointless", then it's a matter of opinion and could be argued (but it's useless to argue) either way.

EDIT: In which case the shorter ones should be made skippable with a simple button press of "A" or "B" (easy to press) and the longer ones would be skipped by a double button press of + or -
