Review: New Super Mario Bros. U | Stevivor.com

Reviewer Leo Stevenson writes, "At this point in time and space, some 25 years after the series’ debut, reviewing a Mario game is basically an exercise in redundancy. Those who are already fans will buy the game regardless of what is written by anybody. God himself — and by God I mean Shigeru Miyamoto — could come out and publicly decry a new Mario as the worst thing ever and fanboys would still buy it in droves. Similarly, those with no interest in Nintendo and their stocky plumber are unlikely to be convinced of his merits by this or any other review. What I can attempt with this review is describe how the Wii U changes the experience, for better or worse."

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?

specialguest298d 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.

FinalFantasyFanatic298d 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?

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

Profchaos298d 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

Outlawzz297d 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

shinoff2183297d 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
