New Super Mario Bros Wii

[Creamy]

Anyone as excited about this as I am? :)

The game is basically the good old Mario sidescroller as you know it from the SNES/NES-Times, just with modern graphics and some cool motion- und multiplayer features. Its out next week, I hope it rocks!

Good game. hard as hell, and man.. its got loads of secrets.

Red, really? Cool, didn't know! Is the multiplayer any good on this?

Yeah, but thats something I've seen on other games too...The Mari Kart Wii screens looked bad too, the ingame gfx was way better...

I own a PS3 and a 360, but I wish I had a Wii to play some good old Mario.

Love the game. :D Brings back a lot of memories. I just wish I had more reasons like this to use the Wii.

I can't wait for this either! 1 question though... Is it the same as the DS version? Or is it a whole new game?

It's a whole new game completely. And here's the official boxart for you.

whole new game... but if you havent played the DS version, get it! Totally worth it...one of the best mario games in a long time..

Multiplayer is awesome.. it can make the game way harder too if you're not careful :p

Looks good. I may have to get it.

And this is why Mario has kept his relevance whereas Sonic is seen as a joke...

People want the old-skool gameplay! I personally WILL be getting this, as the DS version rocked!

I feel tempted to get a Wii just to play this game.

The new sonic game, despite being only a teaser, looks promising, then again, let us not forget the Sonic cycle...

I'm getting two extra wii-remotes just for this...;)

I've been wanting to play the DS version for ages! Unfortunately, don't have a DS and can't justify the price just to play the 1 game really. Oh well, about to pre-order this for the Wii! :D

For everyone already playing this? Hows the control? Do you need a nunchuck for this?

[stezo2k]

i hope this game is as good as super tux :D that game is amazing as is the wii port

i love old school mario games

No you just use the Wii Remote. It feels like classic Mario but it is really really hard!

[Nikv]

Wonder if they'll have the same glitches in the game :D

[Zoom7000]

The cheapest I have been able to find this in the UK is on Gameplay.co.uk. Has anyone ever ordered from them? Are they all legit and good service? Anyone found anywhere cheaper?

How do you control his motion then?

[iamwhoiam]

I so love Mario games. Definitely picking this one up.

[Vortex566]

How do you control his motion then?

You hold the remote sideways like you do if you use the remote to play NES VC games. D-Pad is movemebt and 1 and 2 are the jump and run buttons.
