Review Approach:

This is my first review, hope you'll like it!
Today I am reviewing New Super Mario Bros. Wii, a game for the Wii. Duh.
New Super Mario Bros. Wii is the sequel to the 2006 DS game New Super Mario Bros. This game added many new features, the most notable of which is the co-op multiplayer, which is a hell of a good time in my opinion. This game, as always, has excellent level design, however some of the newer power-ups leave something to be desired. I would have wished for more tactile control on the propeller power up. Also the Penguin power up's sliding move is quite slippery and not as controllable as the regular slide move. I really enjoyed the other modes in the game, Coin Battle is among my favorite mini games in any game, not just this one. Oh, and for the post game, there is a secret World 9, and you can unlock levels by collecting all the Star Coins in a specific world. And if you get stuck on a certain level, Luigi will beat it for you! Awesome!

Verdict

What I Liked ...
  • That Luigi "Super Guide" mode.
  • The levels.
  • The replayability.
  • The minigames.
  • Co-op mode.
What I Didn't Like ...
  • Some power ups.
  • The unnecessary motion controls.

Gameplay
This is a Mario game, so it must have extremely solid, well crafted gameplay. And it does.
9
Presentation
The presentation is extremely good, it even beats some of the newer side scrolling Mario games too.
8
Lasting Appeal
This is one of the games that people remember the Wii for, but not one of the ones they usually talk about when they discuss it.

Overall

This is a game I highly recommend for the Wii. You should play it if you haven't already.

I think this is the most positive score for a new soup game that I've seen.

this game was included with the Wii Mini (red) if you bought one.

Overall not a bad game but compared to Galaxy it was kinda boring unless you really liked the multiplayer mode.

  1. Hardware

    Tribit StormBox Micro 2
    Cramming a ton of features into a small package is a difficult feat on its own, but the Tribit StormBox Micro 2 manages all that and then some.

    Epomaker CoolKiller CK98 Keyboard
    Did Epomaker learn its lessons from the last RGB-ified outing, with the new CoolKiller keyboard?
  3. Nintendo Switch

    Dredge
    Indie title Dredge sails you out on a fishing adventure; but what looks like a cosy trip in the open seas can turn into a fight for survival after dark. Will you conquer the seas?

    ShowGunners
    Turn-based is definitely not my go-to, but ShowGunners definitely piqued my interest so I had to give it a whirl!
  5. Computer

    Case of the Golden Idol
    Case of the Golden Idol was one of the most acclaimed games of 2022. With its first DLC releasing today, does it still live up to the hype?
