Not sure this will get GOTY but it is a sure contender!

Might be GOTY....It is truely amazing :)

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

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

Don't worry about that. It is a fun game. You can pretty much just go on your own way. Plus, saving friends when they are in danger is fun :p

BTW the last level in World 8 must be fun as **** with 4 friends....

Is World 9 really worth it? I was thinking of just putting a cheat that gets me all the star coins then pass all the levels in World 9....

Ah and there needs to be a New Super Mario Bros. Wii 2 without a doubt....

I was actually pretty disappointed, the only thing you get when you finish all 8 stages is a message saying you've completed everything in the game.....

This game is pure goodness. I don't have a Wii, but I played over at my friend's and... all I can say is WOW!

They really put all the best things customers loved in the whole series and they decided to stick those in this game. I'd recommend it to everyone who loved the 2D Mario's. And it's a good way to make young children discover what it was back in the time, a good way also to convince people that going 3D doesn't necessarily mean better. I mean, yeah the game is 3D, but you can move in only 2 directions and it's perfect at it is.

Congrats to the whole team who worked on this project, it's fabulous!

I searched and did not find anything and I was SHOCKED. I just got as my birthday present from my wife, and the only game I got so far is NSMB and honestly it might be all I need. Am I the only person who is loving this game? Is no one playing it because it is on the Wii and no one takes it seriously? Are people just playing it and because it is so damn good have nothing to say about it?

It really is classic Mario in all regards. It is pretty damn impressive to me how they absolutely kept the great gameplay and feel of the original games but did modernize them just a tad for the Wii. I was real worried when I heard there were motion controls, but so far none of them feel outrageous or out of place at all and seem to be done tastefully and well.

The whole 4 player Co Op thing I just can only imagine being fun on the other game modes, the Free Play and Coin Challenge, but trying to do the actual campaign with just my wife is turning out to be quite the challenge so just cannot see it even being possible with 4 people.

I am on World 2-5 I think it is. Still have so, so far to go, but I am absolutely loving it.

So really curious to hear from people playing it.

And apparantly the search is not working, as it is about 10 threads down from this one. LOL I really did search, strange indeed.

So this game is amazing, I just started a thread on it as when I searched I did not find this thread and I was shocked there was not a thread, but apparantly there is. :laugh:

So can someone explain to me the whole save thing?? I know you can save after getting through a Castle, but what is up with the whole Quick Save thing? I have not used it yet as none of the verbiage on it is clear at all, I have no clue what it means you can only use it once. Does that mean only one Quick Save an entire Story Mode, or like Once per night? Just would love some clarification there...

But yeah loving it, have one save game going with me and my wife, and then one save game for just me. Awesome game bringing back the good times.

Quick Save is for "I've got to go to work... NOW!" :) It bookmarks your game, but if you don't resume the QS when you start playing again it goes away.

[Threads merged]

Okay cool, thanks for the response and the merging. (Y)

I love the game.

But its disappointing that you can't unlock anything.I mean...At least let me play some other character than Mario, Luigi or Toad....

Yeah I watched one or two of those movies you can unlock with the big coins, and while some were helpful, I would like a little more incentive for collecting the large coins... Other than that though really have no complaints yet.

It's fun. My friend has it and we and another friend got together and beat the game within an hour. The next time we went on to clear more stages. Not 100% done yet, but it's really got no replay value for me, but I've never really been able to replay mario games except mario 64

Well what did you expect? A gift card? :p

This is what you unlock with the big coins:

World 9

Another thing I missed is "alternate paths": If you finish a level way 1, it gives you the normal path. If you finish a level way 2, it gives you another shortcut path or maybe a path to a mushroom house.

The only problem I've found with this game is when you have 2 (or more, though I haven't done more than 2) really good people playing. My friend and I grew up on the original Super Mario Bros. games, and we can play those with our eyes closed. But when we play this together we run into each other and cause problems because we're both thinking the same thing. It's tough getting used to and leads to many deaths :rofl:

I play with my 5 year old brother who's actually pretty good as he's played the DS version to death, but I imagine what it can be like...I don't think the characters should be able to bump into each other. They should just slip past.

Yeah, that's the one thing I would change about this game.

Haha, I'm still on the castle in World 1. I hardly ever play it though.

You must suck or simply not like these type of games

I finished everything in a couple days....love it while I was playing it but I wouldn't replay it again

A couple of days? You must have played Mario alot :p

Thats stupid and would make this whole game pointless. Teamwork is the key. You or he tells you or him to jump first then you follow him. Teamwork and communication.

Same thing as above.

I wouldnt. Would make it alot less fun.

All I will say to this is you have never played with my wife. I tend to be the exploring get all the coins type, while she just likes to plow on and get through the level. And she has played all of the games in the series before, in fact the N64 we have is hers actually. In my solo game I have 41 lives. In our CoOp game I think we both have 8. Both games are only on World 2.

So yeah, way easier said than done. :laugh:

Yeah on my own saved game I have 52 lives and on our co-op I have 27 and he has around 18 or something.

I may come around to the teamwork idea at some point, but since we're so used to kicking ass solo it's just taking some time to get used to dealing with each other.

    • Waymo recalls self-driving software after cars enter closed freeway work zones

      By ExecutiveFunction404 · Posted

      This got me thinking, would you rather a self driving car prioritise protecting its passengers or everyone else? I'd choose the one that keeps me and my kids safest. At some point, these cars have to make those choices already, don't they? Wonder if we have a way to find out what way they lean.

      The proportion (or number of iterations) has nothing to with this aspect of Copyright I am describing. In short, it doesn't matter how many times the manager tells you to change something or how. Your work product is always YOURS until and unless you then assign that to the person representing the client/company, usually for financial compensation -- either in salary or as a subcontract work for hire payment. if iterations determined copyright, then businesses would have learned to just keep making changes until they could claim they owned the copyright, without having to compensate the artist for their work. And that would be BAD. The only place where the amount of changes does have a role is in how much does a human modify a previous public domain work (from any source) before it is considered fair use or their own work, etc. For example, if a human makes substantial changes to a public domain (re: AI, by definition) work, then they can then claim that derivative work as their own...but NEVER the original version, of course. That's why anyone can make a movie about Dracula, for example, as long as it is based on the public domain novel, but not if they take new ideas from copyrighted movies made afterwards. As one of the people who personally advised the US Copyright Office on their recent ruling on these very issues, be assured that I specifically used the terminology precisely -- though I made it simple enough for laymen to understand it. If I made this confusing by doing so, I apologize. But, to be clear regarding your assumption that I would agree to your second statement that I quoted above -- the answer is NO. If AI does the work, no matter how much "direction" you give it, it cannot be copyrighted. All AI generated content is in the Public Domain and therefore the copyright cannot be assigned to ANYONE, even you -- until and unless substantial modifications are made to it BY A HUMAN BEING (yourself or a contracted artist/writer/etc.) and then that copyright on the derivative work is legally (in writing) transferred to you. This is a critical distinction. And it is important that people, especially AI sloppers, understand this. For example, YouTube is not paying AI slop generators for the copyright, etc. of their AI slop. What YouTube is doing is sharing AD REVENUE for permission to publish your AI slop. Copyright/ownership/rights never come into it. Importantly, that means that anyone can copy any AI slopware on YouTube, etc. and rehost it anywhere they want, even back on YouTube, and there is nothing legal that YouTube can do about it with regards to copyright protections, ownership, DMCA, etc. Anyone is legally free to use any AI slopware in any way they want. When this ruling was pending, I warned Disney legal of all of this before they did their OpenAI deal -- that it would literally dilute their entire IP portfolio forever. They ignored that warning for the PR and stock bump. But that is why, when the ruling came down last year, Disney quickly extricated themselves from that OpenAI deal, even eating the initial upfront fees -- followed closely by OpenAI ending their entire AI video generating business model. They adjusted their PR release dates to make this less obvious to shareholders, of course. Phew. I hope that this clears up the key distinctions for you and anyone reading. If you have any additional questions or even hypotheticals about AI and Copyright, please feel free to ask.
