Clearly the folks over at Nintendo understood that this game was going to sell a billion copies regardless of what they called it, so they gave everyone in the titling department the day off.
If you've ever enjoyed playing Super Mario Bros. in the past, then you probably already own this game, and if you don't then you need to purchase it immediately using the link at the bottom of this post. I was giddy for months leading up to this release. This is fire-ball throwing, brick-bashing, yoshi-riding, koopa-stomping Nintendo 2-D awesomeness just as you remember it.
For the first time in a Super Mario Bros. game you can play with up to four people simultaneously, though not online. Nintendo is way behind the curve when it comes to online multi-player. They're also behind the curve when it comes to releasing good games for their system. Both Playstation 3 and X-Box 360 offer far greater selections of quality games than the Wii does. That makes this game all the more spectacular.
I just realized that I have yet to mention the fact that the koopas dance along with the music. Yes, as if you weren't excited about this game already, there are dancing koopas waiting for you to stomp on them.
I have one complaint for Nintendo, why have I not been able to play as Raccoon Mario since way back in Super Mario Bros. 3? Every flying costume since Mario 3 has paled in comparison. Please take this into consideration before releasing Newer Super Mario Bros. Wii.
