Yes, as I play it I'm like, WOW, this game really is ALL THAT. Now, the only weakness I can really offer (aside from a few odd graphical issues when enemies are on the same "line" as a character) is the linearity of that little world map, but even that's not a very strong argument because of how out of the way you can throw yourself in various areas. Exploring the holy Smithy out of places yields gambling houses and Yoshi races and all manner of mini-games.
The insane fun element comes from wandering through an area and then BAM BAM BAM 3 mini-games in a row, and this happens THROUGH THE ENTIRE GAME. I've lost count of the crazy minigames, and they are ALL fun! Like, at least as fun as any Mario Party minigame (sans the multiplayer part of it).
Oh dear, what if a multiplayer Mario RPG was concieved? None could stop it!

"On two occasions, I have been asked [by members of Parliament], 'Pray, Mr. Babbage, if you put into the machine wrong figures, will the right answers come out?' I am not able to rightly apprehend the kind of confusion of ideas that could provoke such a question." ~ Charles Babbage (1791-1871)
