    This Game Is Very Fun Mario's Physics Feel Great There Is 9 Worlds To Fully Explore And With 3 New Power-Ups My Personally Favorite's are The Propeller Suit And The Penguin Suit.
    The Levels Are Fun And Action Pack With 3 Star Coins Each Level, The Levels Are Evan More Fun With The Power-Ups

    This is one of the best New Super Mario Beros games of the whole series. Its especially fun with friends even with your brother. Messing around in this game with your brother throwing shells at eachother is so fun.

    New Super Mario Bros Wii, the lukewarm cocoa of Mario games. I'll admit I have a soft spot for this game, since it was one of the first games I had ever owned, but calling this game one of the greatest platformers on the system is a bit of a stretch.

To a console that is home to Super Mario Galaxy, Wario Land Shake It, Raving Rabbids Go Home, and Donkey Kong Country Returns...this game is certainly, the least interesting of the bunch.

    The story, Peach is kidnapped on her birthday. Go save her. This game may have stellar controls, colorful graphics, and decent level variety. But ambition? Not a trace. Once you've seen one New Super Mario Bros game, you've essentially seen the rest. Because most of the level themes and enemies are practically identical compared to the previous entries, it's hard to find a reason to replay this one unless you have family multiplayer nostalgia like me.

    This game may be responsible for introducing me to the Super Mario franchise, but without any thematically impressive cutscenes like in those other platformers I mentioned, its hard to get a feel for what this series is all about besides good level design. I want something to think about during the journey. Bowser's new secret weapon, hints about returning bosses, some new villains...a title like New Super Mario Bros feels very deciding when barely anything about the game feels new.

    I will say the most stand out features about this game include the chase with Giant Bowser, the King Bills that appear in the final stage in World Nine, and the boss fights. But other than that, it's more a Mario game to just play to win. The only reward for one hundred percent completion is endless item mini games, it's a bit lame. Unless you have some friends to join you for the ride, you're better off just sticking with New Super Mario Bros U Deluxe. Its all you need.    … Expand

    Gameplay is unfair.
    Sometime you have to make leap of faith. Sometime you can't tell if it's a wall you can bounce to or It's in background. Physics are counterintuitive（Worse than NES mario）... AVGN level of bad

    There's a big variety of levels and minigames. The different worlds have their own gimmicks and unique levels, making the game feel fresh every time. The underwater levels are quite annoying though because water restricts your movement and slows down the pace by a lot.

    The soundtrack is very iconic and exciting to listen to, it has its own personality in a cute way.

    Lastly, multiplayer works very well, and it's the best way to play the game.

    Platformers have been my go-to type of video games ever since I got into the hobby and I have this game to thank for it. New Super Mario Bros. Wii may not be the best platformer out there, but it's still very much a fun one. In this game we take control of Mario and friends to save Princess Peach.....plot summary over. (it's a Mario game what'd you expect)

    Presentation wise the game is    Platformers have been my go-to type of video games ever since I got into the hobby and I have this game to thank for it. New Super Mario Bros. Wii may not be the best platformer out there, but it's still very much a fun one. In this game we take control of Mario and friends to save Princess Peach.....plot summary over. (it's a Mario game what'd you expect)

    Presentation wise the game is pretty good though that's about it. In fact the lack of originality is this game's biggest issue. The world themes are the same as NSMB for the DS and if you know that game, you'll know that they're pretty generic. Not to mention the graphics while pleasant, aren't anything special and the innovation is non-existent. The music also isn't one of Mario's strongest, though there are still some bops in here. My favorites include the athletic theme, map overworld themes, final boss, and end credits music. If you're looking for a platformer that breaks the mold, you won't find it here. That said, this game makes up for it with its controls and level design.

    Mario and friends control really well and in a platformer that's especially important to me.. There's plenty of moves you can perform as this game incorporates moves from 3D Mario games. it may seem like a lot but it won't take long to get used to it. It's fluid, varied, and satisfying. To make things even better we have the power ups. All of them are winners. The classics are as fun as ever and the new ones are great additions. The Propeller Mushroom can be very handy to gain heights and it comes with a nifty drill move to rain death from above. The Penguin Suit has a really fun slide ability and is able to freeze enemies (which makes the Ice Flower obsolete, oops). Overall the controls are very satisfactory and the power ups are fun.

    The levels themselves are also very good. There isn't anything that special about them but they're at least mostly consistent in quality. Some worlds are more fun than others (World 5 and 8 are my favorites while 2 and 6 are my least favorites) but there is none I dislike and their gimmicks do enough to set them apart. The best way to play these levels is to speedrun them. It's really satisfying though not all levels are designed for this playstyle and I did lose most of my lives due to recklessness. Though to be honest, unless you're extremely impatient, you won't lose many lives.

    This game's difficulty curve is mostly balanced. There's a small difficult spike here and there but it basically starts off easy and by the end it's mostly standard. This also applies to the boss fights which aren't all that great. Each world has two fights with a Koopaling. The first fight all play mostly the same. Really easy to dodge attacks and three hits before death. The second battles are more interesting and a few can get rather tense but they're nothing that special still. The exceptions are the Bowser Jr. battles. These are still not that hard but they're all satisfying. (Especially the second one) Also the final boss is sick, If a little easy. So if you're looking for a challenge, then you'll only find it near the end of the game. Though if cooperation is your only weakness, then don't play this with three other players.

    Multiplayer is a great addition to this game. I played this with one other person and it was fun. (Especially the sabotage) Plus the mechanic that allows you to go into a bubble at any time to save you from harm or a bottomless pit is rather useful to help younger players to get into Mario...(or cheat). So definitely consider this for some good multiplayer fun. Fair warning though: More than 2 players will more than likely lead to chaos.

    The last thing I wanna talk about is the completion process. The only thing you need to do is find all of the secret exits, collect all the star coins, and AVOID THE SUPER GUIDE AT ALL COST!!!. (Trust me) I think this is definitely worth it as it forces you to go off the beaten path at times and come on, who doesn't love collecting shiny things? The reward for 100% all may not be very special but this is a case of the journey being the real reward. (But the star coins do unlock some other things that are really cool)

    Overall, I'd still say this game holds up. There isn't anything amazing or original about it and it's on the easy side but even ignoring my nostalgia it's still a consistently enjoyable game. The controls are satisfactory, the power-ups are mostly strong, the levels are generally well-crafted, the presentation is still good, and the multiplayer is fun. It's not the best 2D adventure the king of platformers has to offer, but it's still a fun one and a great intro to the genre.

    Score: 8/10 (probably a high 7 at best but I have nostalgia for this one. It's the first game I ever beat. Cut me some slack. :D)    … Expand

    This is really the start of Mario being less and less inspired in each mainline 2D game. I think the reason Nintendo hasn't released a brand new traditional 2D Mario since 2013 is because they are out of ideas.

NSMB brought Mario back to 2d in some exciting ways, NSMB2 had a unique theme even if it was a bit superfluous, and NSMB U and Luigi were just better designed and had better controls. Because NSMB Wii was designed four 4 players, the levels are empty if you play single-player. At the end of the day, this is not a terrible game by any means, you can still have some good fun with friends while playing it. It gets around a 5-6 for lack of creativity. I hope whenever Nintendo decides to make a traditional 2d Mario again that they don't just reuse assets from the NSMB games and aren't afraid to get a little weird and wacky with their art style, themes, level designs, and music.… Expand

    To say this sucks is to say you hate gaming, this is the 3rd best 2d (2.5d, whatever it's still in the 2D realm) mario game i've played. Next to SMB3 and SMB1. The story is the same, the gameplay is awesome, as typical mario games are. The graphics are suited for 2.

    This review contains spoilers, click expand to view. I didn't remember much of my experience with this game when I played it 9 years ago and I was 7 years old. Now that I finally decided to play it again thanks to a friend of mine, I can say I had a pretty good time. However, it's nothing amazing.

    The ideas introduced in this game tend to either work or don't. The Propeller Mushroom and Penguin Suit are cool, but other power-ups like the Ice Flower seem redundant (since Penguin Suits are utilized almost just as much) and the Mini Mushroom are super underutilized as opposed to the DS game. I'm also not a big fan of the level design. My least favorite levels tend to be gimmicky, like the ones where you tilt the Wii Remote. Unlike games like Super Mario Galaxy, where they managed to make this fun, (in my opinion) they aren't fun at all here. The Multiplayer just outright failed. You already know why.

    New Super Mario Bros. Wii doesn't really feel very inspired if you ask me, as it just takes a big bite out of the DS game. However, this game at least does enough to stand out from it. (Which is something I can't say for any other New Super Mario Bros. game after it) This is the first Super Mario game that didn't entirely have its own identity.

    The good parts of this game are legitimately pretty good though, and the highlight for me has to be the final boss, where Bowser grows huge and attempts to kill Mario in cold blood as he tries to escape him. The presentation is nothing to write home about, but the graphics look decent, and the soundtrack is perfectly average. (With the exception of the Staff Roll and some of the World 8 themes, those are great)

    New Super Mario Bros. Wii is a good game, but there are Mario games I would choose over it. I will admit that this is one of the better New Super Mario Bros. games.    … Expand

    Right amount of difficulty, well projected Multiplayer department with the bubble system, Yoshi, the introduction of the true Ice Flower (Galaxy doesn't count), the Propeller mushroom (one of my favourite powerups in the series), the OST... this game has everything! A must-have for every Wii owner :)

There's a new co-op mode which'll let you place with up to 4 players. It can be great fun but it can also be pretty messy. Yoshi plays just like he did in Super Mario World. He extends his disturbingly long tongue and devours any poor creatures that gets into his path. This game's level design is simple and can offer some great experiences.

    New Super Mario Bros. Wii is a fun game. While its level design is not good, its ideas are safe, and the save system is flawed, the game mechanics are well done, it has good power-ups, a Super Mario Bros. 3 inspired map system, fun bosses, and great multiplayer. Just don't buy this game over 30$.

    People hate on this game so much for being similar to the DS entry into the series, but I personally think that this game is one of my favorite Mario 2D platformers of all time. This game took my family 6 years to beat, and it was all worth it. The 4 player co-op can be a little hectic in normal play, but if you do two-player, or do the special modes, this game can bring so much fun.

However it was also good that the Koopalings had returned to the Mario formula - a smart move by Nintendo for a series where all characters should at least have a substantial part in it. But there is very little replay value, and some sections of the game were really just punishing, as opposed to difficult - there's actually a difference here. Also, some of the levels are a pain to make it through, and even more so when dying on the tail end of one with no check-points. In fact, my first playthrough of this game involved getting to both World 5 and World 8 Warp Cannons just to get to World 8, get past the rather painful final boss, and complete the game, just to get it done. The controls are also pretty shoddy on this one as well. We've already had difficulty multi-stomping enemies and doing Bulldozer Attacks for a long time due to collision issues, but the shoddy controls on this title make it even more painful to do so, if not impossible. Also, overall, the game is just pretty boring in general even for New Super Mario Bros. early on, though that's not to say that it DOESN'T have meritable fun value for what it is.… Expand

    This review contains spoilers, click expand to view. I feel like this is one of those video games that is trying to please too many people at once; this is due to the fact that it plays everything incredibly safe. The difficulty isn't very hard (although, I will say, I did one hundred percent complete this game, which was quite taxing); the final boss fight is laughable (even in the second phase) and all of the other bosses are quite similar. The individual levels are fun, though, and are, clearly, handcrafted with care, showing off level design that is flexible to each player, allowing multiple play styles to succeed. Contrarily, the bosses are simple: Just jump on each of them three times; I understand that this is a Mario game, so they need to be accessible to a wide variety of audiences, including the younger, more inexperienced market, but that doesn't mean that there can't be anything for the more skilled players.… Expand

Of course, Princess Peach is captured by Bowser and you have to save her by going through 8 worlds and beating Bowser and his kids. Here's a description of each world:
    World 1: The enjoyable and easy grassland world with Princess Peach's castle in it. Enemy: Larry.
    World 2: The desert world that is a bit harder than World 1. Not really hard and partly enjoyable. Enemy: Roy.
    World 3: A fun snowy world that is easy and very enjoyable. Enemy: Lemmy.
    World 4: The beach world. I personally hate the beach world the most because you have to go under water in some levels and enemies like purple cheep cheeps are down there and I hate them. Enemy: Wendy O.
    World 5: The poisonous jungle world. I love this world a lot. A bit hard and super fun. Enemy: Iggy.
    World 6: The mountains world. Partly hard and partly fun. Enemy: Morton Jr.
    World 7: The sky/cloud world. Quite fun and in between easy and hard. Enemy: Ludwig Von.
    World 8: The volcano/lava world. This world has Bowser's castle in it. Mostly hard. Enemy: Bowser.

    Like (almost) every Nintendo console the Wii got his Super Mario Bros episode, but was this needed for one of the most iconic character of videogames ?

    Technically the game looks fine for the Wii, the childish art direction adds a lots of charm to all Nintendo's platformers but it lacks originality in the level design (almost no use of the motion controls) and the boss design as well.

On the other hand the games doesn't have any bug like always with Nintendo.

    Concerning the gameplay once again the lack of innovations can be a bit annoying if you're not a fan , but most of all I find the character a bit clumsy and jumps aren't as perfect as in Donkey Kong for example, this was really the biggest lay down of this game for me. I don't explain how they didn't nailed this part, because generally they do, for the first time in a Nintendo platformer I was frustrated by the controls.

    Story wise, well you know what to expect from Nintendo, all the Super Mario Bros could be considered as a perpetual reboot considering the lack of consideration for what happened in the past, anyway the story is as simple as it gets, if you're looking for an interesting one don't buy a Mario game. Concerning the length of the game you can expect between 12 to 15 hours to finish all the levels at 100%, which is a good average for the genre.

    In conclusion I don't consider this game interesting if you already know Super Mario Bros unless you're a Mario fan, the Wii offers better experience of the same genre (Donkey Kong, Kirby). And even for newbie, I think the first games (if you don't have the hardware there's a collection available for Wii) are better choices. I might be underrating the game a bit, but I expect the best from an old franchise like this one and I was disappointed by its gameplay and the lack of risks in game design.    … Expand

    Enjoying Mario in the genre that saw him born is always a great pleasure, even if you are not a fan of the platform titles. Nintendo returns to its specialty: to offer hours and hours of fun by giving us games with their own personality and a shellproof gameplay.

    That sense of cohesiveness isn't always present in New Super Mario Bros. and it makes for an uneven experience that's difficult to score.

    New Super Mario Bros. Wii is an excellent game with friends, and I had a great deal of challenging fun with the solo mode. But if you’re looking for a new Mario adventure that’s tailored to creating the maximum amount of fun for just one person, you’ll have to wait for next year’s Super Mario Galaxy 2.
