The play control is classic nintendo style with some twists added in. The multi-player is pretty awesome... if you can manage to work together.. instead of leaving someone behind so they fall down a pit or die in a fire. Looks like there's tons of mini games and different things to do in single player mode. So far really good! Review ID: 10000000014258374 Was this review helpful?

I have no qualms with saying this is a far better game than the Nintendo DS version, and it could easily be the finest Super Mario Bros. 2D platformer Nintendo's ever created. You should absolutely get a copy, no question. But, and it's a big "but," Nintendo did not use this opportunity wisely. For as big a project as this could have been, this game's impact is weakened by many factors. It plays it safe with established gameplay with very little in the way of new innovation. It also lacks online multiplayer in a generation where such a feature is expected. I had a great time plowing through all eight worlds (and then some), but the nagging feeling of it seeming like a step backwards kept creeping in. As a gamer I love New Super Mario Bros. Wii, but as a critic I just couldn't let the issues slide. 7.5 Presentation Nintendo gives us the status quo here, not going above and beyond in features. 7.5 Graphics Very modest visuals: 3D characters, 2D backgrounds, with the occasional lighting effect. 8.0 Sound The Mario soundtrack has some great old favorites and some fun new ditties. 9.5 Gameplay Brilliant 2D platforming and challenges makes this the best of the 2D Mario best. 9.0 Lasting Appeal The multiplayer aspect makes this a game you'll come back to again and again. 8.9 Great OVERALL This game is on sale at my eBay Store at a good price: http://stores.ebay.com/Ma Review ID: 10000000014304156 Was this review helpful?
