NEW:Super Mario Bros. Wii

R E V I E W

When you think of video games, the first character that comes to your mind is most likely, Mario! Mario has been around since 1985, and is still going strong! Doesn’t this guy ever get tired of saving the Mushroom Kingdom? We all have fond memories of hours spent playing Mario, whether your 30 and remember his little 8-bit figure on the NES or you’re 7 and the only recollection you have is Mario in his 3D figure on the Wii, Mario has a Special place in all of our hearts. NEW: Super Mario Bros. Wii is modeled after Super Mario Bros. 3, made for the NES. All new moves and graphics, make this game very unique compared to the other Super Mario games.

G A M E P L A Y --- The gameplay in this game is very high-quality. Being a side-scroller Nintendo has a lot they can do! The gameplay is based on that of Super Mario Bros. 3 which was one of the best Mario games of all time! The graphics are very well designed. There are a lot of different types of scenery. All of the characters are well designed as well! The controls, when you hold the Wii remote sideways, are almost exactly like the NES controller, which will make many “old-timers” happy. In NEW: Super Mario Bros. Wii there is a lot of new power-ups! The Propeller mushroom, The Ice flower, and the Penguin suit are a few new ones! The sounds are very well structured. There are also several new moves, such as the wall-jump, and ground pound. One thing I have to say is I found the difficulty to be very easy; which is good or younger players, but older players may be disappointed. On the up-side however, the game is compatible to have 4 players! This can be very fun, and can really challenge the players’ cooperation. If you don’t have good teamwork, you could end up loosing the level.

O F F E N S I V E  M A T E R I A L --- Well there’s not much you can say here for any Mario game! The only thing I would be able to say is two or three of the bosses use a very mild form of magic, but that shouldn’t be a problem.

O V E R A L L --- Overall, on the JMRS I give it an A. This is a very fun game; great for the whole family to play and have fun at any age! The 4-player compatibility provides for a fun experience for family and friends alike! I have spent many hours playing this game with friends and family of ages all the way down to 4. I recommend this game to every person who owns a Wii console!
