Call me a Nintendo fanboy, but there’s nothing I love more than a good old-school Mario platformer. Something about the simplistic mechanics, upbeat music and overly bright colour scheme just puts me in a euphoric state of mind. It takes me back to the days when video games didn’t need corporate sponsored ad placement in every other cut scene to remain financially viable. The classic nostalgia factor is what I’m really talking about and, for better or worse, it’s this infectious element that gives New Super Mario Bros. 2 on the 3DS its appeal. 8/10
