Old School Mario with some new tricks
3 of 3 people found this review helpful.
I decide to buy this game because I was taking a trip to North Carolina and needed something to keep me occupied on the drive down from Pennsylvania. I knew it was up my alley because I've always been a big fan of the Mario series but this game blew me away.
Nintendo went back to what made Mario famous.. a 2-d side scrolling platformer in the vein of the original Super Mario Brothers for the Nintendo Entertainment system. The game plays as a side scolling adventure but Mario dosen't just jump and run , he now can leep off of things in mid air, and stomp things below him all by just using two of the buttons on the DS.
The graphics are done very well, and even though it is 2-d, Mario and Luigi are both very detailed for a game of this genre. The sound is also done very well, as the original theme songs are intertwined with some new beats and sounds.
Overall I would say that this game is about as perfect as a 2-d Mario game can get. If you own a DS and liked the original Super Mario Brothers then this is the game for you.
