New Super Mario Bros Wii


Recommended Posts

Great game :) hopefully I'll be 100% done tonight :) All I need to do at this point is find how to access 7-6 (I have a good idea where it is...) and get the 3 star coins and finish the matching stage in the special world and I'll be done :) Overall it was a great game and I can't wait for xmas time to play it with a bunch of people

I'm a little confused as to whether to pick this up.

Alot of reviews say that the game is really fun others, where as others say that the single player is the only decent part and the multiplayer is just ****.

I only want to play multi so whats your guys opinions.

Oh...look at that... :huh:

Im going to play this with friends only...this is confusing me now...

NEVER TRUST AN IGN REVIEW lol honestly I know that sounds harsh and biased but at least read some other reviews first. I was an avid IGN fan for years but over the last year or two their reviews have completely shat the bed. I'm talking half page reviews that don't even talk about gameplay, to cut and pasted reviews from the console section for pc ports etc. etc. etc.

Although their txt review of New Super Mario Bros didn't seen too bad, I havn't played it yet so dunno if I agree with it...

Ya, I watched that review yesterday. The reviewer seemed kinda schizophrenic. He was saying how disappointing and how great the game was at the same time... Pick one. :p

I was a bit disappointed that all you get for collecting all the star coins (even from World 9), is a stupid message that says congratulation you finished everything in the game....sounds like they could have done a bit better...

But anyhow I've really really enjoyed the game :)

+1 for this game being awesome. I picked it up the day it came out and I havent stopped playing it. The multiplayer is hilarious but it can be very challenging at times. This is definitely the hardest Mario I have ever played.

+1, people seem to think the multiplayer was meant to make things easier, but in reality it makes everything harder (except collecting star coins) and that's the fun part.

The Wii: No Achievements, No Fun. :p

Kidding. I love the game. Brings back a lot of memories.

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!

Not necessarily true. Super Mario 64 and Galaxy were really fun. I think Sonic has lost relevance because the newer 3D Sonic (Sonic Adventure for the Dreamcast was good IMO) games suck. :p

I'm still on World 1 because I've just not had time for much gaming lately, and when I do it's usually MW2.

Last night however I managed to play 2 levels and I saved my game. Went to play more today and it didn't take me to where I left off?! wtf (N)

I've replayed these levels like 5 times now cause I've always had to switch it off in a rush for whatever reason :laugh: :angry:

All I can say is thankfully Nintendo was smart enough to let players bubble themselves.

+1 many lives saved doing that lol

I preordered this and picked my copy up on the 12th Nov. It's a blast and I love playing it. Played multi player a few times and it's good as long as you're all capable of playing the game at a similar level. One person can really spoil it for the rest if they have no idea how to use the controls.

Highly recommended!

    • Microsoft will soon allow some users to block Copilot from analyzing their Office files by Usama Jawad Microsoft Purview is a pretty useful data governance, security, and management service that allows customers to gain enhanced visibility and control over their content. It's meant for commercial customers, such as organizations that are storing data at scale. As AI continues to expand and infiltrate every corner of a firm, many are a bit conscious about the technology gaining access to their confidential data. Microsoft is now making a configuration change that will allow such customers to rest easy. Right now, users within an organization have the option to apply Purview sensitivity labels (when available) to secure certain files and label them as such. For example, if you apply the "Confidential" label on an Excel file, the file will be encrypted, and a "confidential" watermark will be applied to it. So, if this file is shared with anyone, they are aware that its access is supposed to be restricted. Up until now, Microsoft was allowing some connected experiences, like its AI services, to analyze files, regardless of their sensitivity label. This is of major concern to most organizations, as a recent example highlighted how confidential emails with data loss prevention (DLP) policies like privacy labels were being uploaded to Copilot for analysis. As such, Microsoft is updating an existing Purview data label sensitivity setting that prevents "some connected experiences that analyze content", from being blocked completely from doing this. The label isn't changing, but the blocking is now being enforced across all connected services (including Copilot and other AI tools), and now extends to Microsoft Word, Excel, and PowerPoint. Files with the label applied already will get this enhancement automatically too once it becomes available. Microsoft has urged IT admins to inform their respective helpdesk and compliance teams, update internal documentation, and review sensitivity labels to ensure that they meet their respective compliance needs. This change is tagged as MC1297982 in the Message Center. General availability is scheduled to begin in a phased manner soon and will complete by the end of next month. That said, it is important to note that this only applies to commercial customers who have a license that allows them to use Purview.

    • All versions is correct. The bug appears on any version of Windows with KB5094126 installed. It's a little insane to expect the author to explain that systems that can't possibly have that patch installed, will not experience the bug. If you have any gripe about the title, it would be that it doesn't mention the update at all, but I wouldn't agree with that either. A title is not expected to be a full summery of the article.
