GameInformer: New Super Mario Bros. U Review

GameInformer writes:
"After playing through New Super Mario Bros. 2 on 3DS a few months ago, I was concerned that the “New” series had run its course. The levels didn’t feel as fresh and the coin collection gimmick didn’t make much of an impact. I feared this dip in quality signaled stormy skies for New Super Mario Bros. U on Nintendo’s next home console, but I couldn’t have been more wrong."

Funny how slow the great games aren't getting approved. :)

It took 15 minutes. How is that slow. Pretty fast compared to most stories on this site

It's a conspiracy!!! Seriously, who cares? I'm enjoying the poop out of my Wii U... Zombie U and all. Who cares what a good or bad review says, they're clearly not affecting sales or influencing buyers at this point in time.

Fell free to friend me... I currently have no friends on Wii U and feel isolated :(

GI I must say this is unexpected.

Samus HD4166d ago

the highest score yet I believe

Munnkyman4166d ago

Man I really thought this game wasn't going to get great scores. Just because it look a lot like the wii one. But now I might have to pick it up

If you can't ride Yoshi from level to level it sucks and theres nothing you can do about it.

Goodbye New Mario, I Won't Miss You

Super Mario Bros. Wonder is the first Mario 2D game in almost two decades without the New Super Mario art style, and it looks all the better for it

Am I missing something? It looks exactly the same, just higher resolution… Is this sarcasm?

specialguest295d ago

Yes, you're not observant if you think it looks exactly the same. It immediately appeared different to me from the start. Mario's 3D model will always be the same, so not much difference there. However, the animation they've given the Super Mario Wonder makes it look more like a CGI Mario animation where as the New Mario Bros game looks more like typical video game animation movements

@specialguest Yeah those animations are insane.

FinalFantasyFanatic295d ago

You really didn't notice the difference? It's really obvious, I was surprised when I first saw the trailer.

"Am I missing something?"

Your glasses maybe?

Juancho51295d ago

This Mario game looks great, getting a switch for this and Mario RPG. CANT WAIT, TITS JACKED.

Profchaos294d ago

Yeah I liked how much more emotion could be conveyed through the new style at first glance I didn't see much difference but then rewatching the trailer I'm seeing more and more animations that remind me of the Mario artwork from the manual of smb3

Outlawzz294d ago

I hated the new super Mario bros Style. This new one seems a lot more expressive and less generic. I hope it's a good game

shinoff2183294d ago

I prefer the 2d Mario's. Me and my girl have played them all together and mario galaxy , Mario odyssey. The 2nd player option is extremely eh
