Aug 28, 2023This is one of the best games on the DS system no joke. This game has such cool bosses comapred to the basic ass koopalings thay ate used in every game after Super Mario World. Easy 10/10 becuase thos game introdiced 2 of the greatest power ups ever to exist.

Jun 29, 2023It's alright i guess the controls are good and the levels look cool, i like that this game has unique bosses and not just the koopa kids. But the game feels a bit too easy and it's not really too memorable
-
Jun 6, 2023Prettified reboot of the classic games that doesn't quite have the edge and inventiveness of its SNES forebears, but is a pleasing little platformer in its own right.
-
May 29, 2023A real great game for a mario renew, a lot of elements will remember classic games, the giant mushroom makes it kinda too much easy (i literally defeated bowser in seconds without taking damage using it), all said, it's still a must-play DS game.
-
Apr 23, 2023Perfect DS-Game and probably the best of the New Super Mario Bros. series. It has unique bosses and a diverse level design. It captures the feeling of the classic games while staying „new“

Apr 5, 2023A very simplistic but fun experience. This game is a good one but after you beat it, it'll just be an ok game. Nothing more, nothing less
-
Apr 5, 2023New super Mario bros is a great experience for the series as Mario is saving princess peach a simple plot and it's gets better this game They remade the Mario series in a amazing way to get Mario fans really happy the levels are incredible the graphics are great too look at and the gimmicks are good and the bosses are impressive one of my favorite 2d games
-
Mar 31, 2023Not really much wrong with this game. All the levels are amazing although I do find the water levels most boring. The ship and castle levels are probably the most fun. The variety of levels make this game amazing. The variety of enemies if also impressive. Bowsers castle is also an amazing level. It's just an iconic game that has so many amazing levels to play.
-
Mar 15, 2023The best experience the New Super Mario series can offer. On top of unique levels with little empty space, there a bunch of side modes that give the game extra value. Star Coins are a well designed collectible, as are most of the secret exits; though the game does occasionally get pretty specific and obscure with a few of its secrets.
-
Mar 14, 2023This game basically made my childhood. Great in terms of gameplay and graphics, would recommend to a Super Mario fan.

Oct 6, 2022(8.5/10) - I can't remember if I ever beat this one but I remember playing this all the time. The minigames and re-done soundtrack are highlights.

-
Jun 20, 2022it's a good platformer i love it a classic mario game for all ages it has fun levels and powerups
-
May 27, 2022This game deserves to be counted as one of the great 2D Mario games, up with Super Mario Bros. Super Mario Bros. 3, and Super Mario World. It gets a lot of undeserved hate, simply because of it being a "New" Super Mario Bros. title, but this was a really great game.

Apr 29, 2022graphics are really good for nintendo ds, the gameplay is smooth, the difficulty level is balanced, i like it, it's not as difficult as mario bros nes which is really hard to finish
-
Apr 26, 2022This is a great game, despite what anyone may say about the New Super Mario Bros. series. The levels are phenomenal, and there's just enough collectibles to keep you playing for a while. It does get pretty difficult at times, but it is just difficult enough. I would recommend this to anyone who owns a DS.

-
Apr 10, 2022my first ever game on the DS! quite fun and it was a lot harder than i expected. mario's slippery mechanics took me a while to get used to. the bosses are trivially easy if you bring a fire flower with you. the rng on some of the levels like the meteor one was annoying. nice platformer which introduced me to mario
-
Apr 4, 2022Después de casi 10 anõs sin una entrega 2D Mario vuelve en ese juegazo para la DS! Fue tan bueno que Nintendo hasta el dia de hoy sigue vendiendo mods de ese juego a 60 pavos, pero bueno una cosa no tiene que ver con la otra. Ese juego, el primero, si que estaba genial y era muy fresco en su momento.
-
Jan 14, 2022I love this game. New levels, worlds and power ups. Mini-games is good too. But world 8 is TOO hard. I don't play multiplayer, so I won't write about it.
-
Dec 13, 2021The Best game you could get for a Nintendo Ds, New Super Mario Bros DS has modes that others don't have.
I loved the Mario vs Luigi mode, and also some of the minigames.
The levels are creative, some are unique, and of course new items like mega/mini mushroom, blue shell is fun to use with.
If you want to get started on platforming, start with this one. -

Nov 8, 2021Great game. Actual bosses, cool secrets, fun power ups. all the others, while fun at times, are pretty corporate in their design and execution. It's just boring at times.

Sep 28, 2021Brilliant game! It's clearly the best game of the series and it's a classic. Nice music and lovely level design.
-
Aug 12, 2021This is one of the best 2D games ever. The level design, the length, the music, the power ups, the multiplayer. If you want to play a 2D Mario game, this is a must play.

Jun 26, 2021This game was another childhood staple of mine. I will admit I like it a little less than I once did tho.
-
Jun 2, 2021I spent so much time on this as a kid. I decided to play it again before reviewing as to not let nostalgia take over. What can I say, the game holds up!
-
Apr 25, 2021I don't have nostalgia for this one, but I feel the Wii U and Wii ones are just better. Sorry.
-
Apr 21, 2021Amazing levels, unique characters and beautiful graphics for a ds game. It still holds up the test of time even to this day. Really enjoyable and controls very well.

Dec 26, 2020Gameplay: 8, Graphics: 7, Varierty: 7. One of the frist platforming game i've played, it's quite hard to me, but i have fun memories with it although there aren't a lot of variety here

Dec 19, 2020This, bar none, is my favorite game of all time.
It may be just nostalgia, but New Super Mario Bros introduced me to video games and I owe it the world for that. It also has great multiplayer. -
Dec 6, 2020A great return to the classics with interesting new powerups and an intriguing level design that makes for a fun end enjoyable game all the way through. The multiplayer is fantastic, and the minigames are fun and addicting. Definitely the best of all of the New Super Mario Bros. games.

Jun 23, 2020Classic mario game in classic NDS era with clsssic fun. The game also has a good replay value with your friend thanks to the multiplayer modes.
-
May 6, 2020This game is a absolutely classic, and envelops well the magic of both 2D Mario and the Nintendo DS alike. This should be in every Nintendo DS, and its a great fun in your pocket. Sadly its a bit repetitive, easy and the final levels are poorly designed, but overall its a solid game.

May 5, 2020EL JUEGO. El mejor juego de DS. Junto al Mario Kart DS. Toda la esencia de nintendo en esta obra.

Mar 3, 2020This game is so good, the levels are very creative and interesting, the multiplayer and the mini games are so funny and I think this is one of the best ds games

Sep 22, 2019If you own a DS and need a quick, accessible and fun adventure, this is the game for you. It's charming levels and worlds mix for a fun experience along with collectibles that enhance the satisfaction of completing the game fully. The extras that add on to this game is what adds to the fun and charm of this mildly long adventure.

Nov 1, 2018Игра вроде средняя но и хорошая. Самая большая проблема игры это её сложность. Игра очень лёгкая и из-за этого затянутая. Всё трудность на самом последнем уровне и это печально.

May 22, 2018This is really the best Mario game I've ever played. Innovative level design and themes, the right amount of challenge, many things to unlock by spending Star Coins, the multiplayer is super, and if all that wasn't enough, the F**KING MINIGAMES!

Il mio primo gioco di super mario, ed uno dei miei primissimi giochi, ai tempi per me era una meraviglia (6-7 anni), ma a pensarci ora, diciamo che è un po calato di aspettativa, cioè, paragonandolo agli altri giochi di Super Mario, questo non è poi così incredibile, anzi, forse è uno dei più banali, non-innovativi, giochi della serie. -

Feb 19, 2018Sure, the levels may be too easy for you and hardcore gamers, but you have to admit, the level design is GENIUS for its time, graphics are great, powerups (oh lord) are amazing! You definitely need to try this game out, even in 2018!
-
Jan 25, 2018This is the game of my childhood, fun min-games - awesome single-player. While SMB3 Was too hard for me as a kid this was the game that I consumed my life in. If you have a DS this is a must have.
One of the easiest games that I 100%ed but I had a blast while playing it. -
Jan 1, 2018The first New Super Mario Bros game, New Super Mario Bros is an extraordinary game with great music, platforming, visuals, and stages. If your playing with a friend, you can roam around a small stage as Mario and Luigi, or if your playing with more than 1 friend, you can play a series of mini games that give Mario Party a run for its money

Jul 18, 2017De los mejores juegos de DS, con un diseño de pantallas impecable. Demasiado fácil para mi gusto, pero extenso y si te propones conseguir todas las monedas de oro entonces si que encontrarás dificultad

Apr 29, 2017This is not the best Mario game ever made but it's still decent enough to have it in my collection, can get a bit bland at times. Not a binge play, but still nice to play every once an a while

Before New Super Mario Bros. entered my life, "Yoshi's Island" was, to me, the greatest platformer ever created. That title may now have to go to New Super Mario Bros.
-
The kind of game that makes hardcore Nintendo fans get on their knees and weep in sheer joy over the eighty new levels of new 2D Mario action...The visuals come in scorching hot, with gorgeous 3D bringing the old school into a new school setting. Sprinkle in some minigames and multiplayer modes, and you have a system seller.

While it lasts, it’s some of the best platforming to date and features what I consider to be the best Nintendo DS graphics to date. While it’s a shame the new power-ups are frills and the length of the main game is ridiculously short, it’s hard not to recommend it.
