WTMG's Oliver Shellding: "Super Mario Bros. Wonder is easily the best new 2D Mario in a very long time, and it’s really fighting for my number one or two spot. Recency bias has it going head to head with older titles, but that’s the great part: you don’t have to decide. Each game brings something to the table, and Wonder’s new everything – enemies, power ups, level design – keeps it brimming with potential all the way to the very end. Stubborn players will have hours upon hours of completion goals to achieve, and casual runners will be defying the odds to see who can crush Bowser in record time. In short, Nintendo has achieved their goal: a Mario title that truly crafts awe and delight across the board."
Luigi's Mansion 2 HD still performing well.
The platform breakdowns really show how irrelevant xbox has come for selling software.
1 Hogwarts Legacy Switch 41%, PS5 26%, PS4 24%, Xbox 5%
2 EA Sports FC 24 Switch 34%, PS5 28%, PS4 26%, Xbox 12%
Not that surprising, the Switch has some killer exclusive titles, so people have to own a Switch to play them.
One unused Super Mario Bros. Wonder effect would have had Mario go live action, with Mario himself humming the music and mimicking sound effects.
I imagine a lot of these wonder effects especially the cut ones were imagined while the team were out drinking somehow
