[@bandicootsmwcentral2950]

I mean for ds and wii they at least introduced something new. Ds was basically the revival of the 2d Mario games and introduced lots of new mechanics like the walljump,3d acrobatic jumps in a 2d space and the star coins. Wii added and pretty much defined a style of multiplayer in 2d platformers, some games later even copied its style of multiplayer (Rayman origins and Legends come to mind). But then comes 2 nsmb games almost at the same time and added basically nothing to the formula. Nsmb2 is easilly the must generic and boring Mario game I ever played, its just nsmbds again with the wii graphics and music with just a few "bahs" added to it, and lots of coins which grants thousand of lives with no effort, and the level design is way too damn easy, even kirby games get more dificult than this. And they surprisingly managed to screw up the multiplayer, you see to play in coop you need two 3dses, but the game camera only follow one of the players and the other player must try to keep up if they want to be on screen. why the hell each player dont have its own screen? It baffles me. Also the game received dlc but for the coin rush mode, the problem is: the coin rush sucks. And then comes nsmbu, this one is just wii but it takes place in a diferent region, which makes we think they would try new level themes but no, the same as always. They finally added new songs, but only for grassland and atlethic stages, why? And the squirrel suit is way too underwelming compared to previously air based powerups. And literally nothing is new, except perhaps the challenge mode which is surprisinly fun and the baby yoshies, thats about it. New super luigi U was a great dlc and a nice twist on the formula by being a speedrun based game.

I've used this before in my playthrough to exit to the map without losing a life. I also didn't find that hitting the A button accidentally was a problem, but that's probably because I keep my thumb in the center of the D-pad and tilt to move, like a joystick.

One of my favorite Christmas presents yet. I have so many fond memories of playing this game with my dad and totally getting carried by his skill!

Thank you for this physical concentration of childlike wonder, Nintendo! And amazing video, by the way!

[@bluefalcon3629]

Played this game as a kid, so have a lot of nostalgia with it, and to this day I still didn't realise how much was reused. Completely agree with you, but I think the game has a lot more pros than cons, the best nsmb in my opinion, it was at a point where it improved on almost everything in the ds version, and wasn't as drained or uninspired (The coin gimmick in nsmb2) as the rest of the games. The motion controls also work really well in this game in my opinion, only to be thirded by the two galaxy games.

[@timbitslunatic6319]

Blue Falcon I feel like DS is the golden child and Wii is the “I’m close to golden but not just their” child

[@bluefalcon3629]

I respect your opinion, but I feel differently, maybe its because I have a lot of nostalgia for the game, but it did so much right for its time. It was the first 2d Mario on a home console in almost if not a decade, a stunning achievement, granted the all new multiplayer feature was a bit on the annoying side, but when was it not going to be? The wii version did so much to set itself apart from the ds version, doing its best under 'the same graphics'. All the ds had was a cool battle mode (which they barely if at all advertised), a return to 2d, some small original bosses, and a big boi mushroom. Sure the wii had a lacking battle mode, but it was a return to 2d on consoles, the koopalings were cool for the time, as we hadn't seen them for years upon years, but they only get the backlash they do today because they were reused so much. The graphics were amazing for the time, I mean you cant go through a video on nsmbu without comparing the 'hd' graphics to the wii's. The ds version was the formula, the wii version perfected the formula, much like the nes and snes consoles. The 3ds version is the virual boy that gives everyone a headache. And the wii u one was like the console it was on, underwhelming

[@freshmozzarello]

You know what the game title also contains? the words "Super Mario Bros" witch is a game about getting to the end of a level, Nintendo named it "Super Mario Bros" because it's the 2D platformer Super Mario Bros, The reason other Mario games like Super Mario 64 or Super Mario Sunshine don't have the word "Bros" in there is because it's not the 2D platformer we all know and love, it's something that isn't that. And the word "New" is in all the new Super Mario Bros games because it signifies that it's new but still stands true to the "Super Mario Bros" staple from the first game.

[@Theworstnoobever]

16:21 Yes, the Penguin Suit is indeed superior to the Ice Flower in almost every way. However, it makes a huge amount of sense why Nintendo included both of these. Here's why. 1. The Penguin Suit is MUCH more rarer, only appearing in Worlds 3/4 and World 9-5. The Ice Flower is common around every world. 2. The Ice Flower is practically necessary for every castle except World 3's. 3. Plus, the Penguin Suit is only utilized for certain gimmicks that are almost redundant to other worlds. In World 3, you have slippery ice, so obviously the Penguin Suit works. In World 4, there's water, so yeah. But in other areas like World 1 or 5, it's not even needed. 4. Sliding on the ground as opposed to ice or water is horrendous and abysmal with the Penguin Suit, and you don't gain much distance.

[@Daft0Cean968]

yea lol i think the penguin suit was implemented really well. it's honestly one of my favorite power ups ever, and it being rare made it feel special whenever you got it. I mean it did it better than the tanooki suit in SMB3 imo. In that game the tanooki suit was pretty rare compared to the regular raccoon leaf, but it didn't do enough for it to feel all that special it rlly only allowed you to turn into a statue, which was fairly situational. The penguin suit on the other hand feels upgraded enough to feel special (also thanks to it looking completely different), while also keeping the ice flower useful due to the penguin suit being far far rarer

Yoshi should really at least have appeared in some more levels. Some of those 4-5 levels he appears in are in secret levels (like that one in World 7) and in slightly hidden blocks in normal levels (World 3-2 I think).

Love your content man awesome analysis and great video !!

[@dreamlanderjoel8162]

2:56 Actually, I'm pretty sure most of the music in NSMBWii was brand new, only a few of them were NSMBDS remixes. It's the sequels on 3DS and Wii U that really began to reuse music.

[@imshakedown]

yea, this dude doesnt know what he's talking about

[@imshakedown]

never mind actually im dumb. i thought it was entirely original but i forgot about themes like "Walking the Plains" and "Mushroom Waltz". but still, im glad they added these two tracks to NSMBW, i don't think the game would be the same without them. however, i still think there's more than enough original music in NSMBW to call the argument nitpicky.

The “new” moniker just means that the series is an extension to the old 2D Mario games do it still makes sense

NSBWII was great, even if it reused a few things (something that even the old Mario games did and nobody cared), but NSMBU was sooo much better, in visual, level design, new things, de SMW themed map, EVERYTHING! I wanna see your review of it soon!

[@gamermapper]

I've played NSMBW and I've seen NSMBU let's plays, NSMBU doesn't do that much better, everything is the same as with the Wii. I don't see the difference with resolution, I've used a big screen but I didn't use upscaling so it's the same resolution and I don't see so much à difference

[@ilan_profile]

@@gamermapper You need to play it to see the difference, NSMBU does feels different and is an improvement overall to the other NSMB games. Also it is really inspired from SMW

[@gamermapper]

2:37 NSMBW was actually my first Mario game and was my introduction to Mario and pretty much video games in general, I used to play it with my friend, I lost the Wii at some point and I spent a period of time learning about pretty much everything about the game. Strategies like ground pounds being useful to cancel ice physics. Trivia like the Prima guide mixing up Larry and Iggy's names. Easter eggs, oh god, easter eggs--to this day, if you tell me something I didn't know about NSMBW, being level design or whatever, I will probably light up. Regardless, I've went to the mariowiki got knowledge of pretty much the whole series and (but not the Donkey Kong series for some reason even to this day). I memorized the names of the enemies and liked how this game re-introduced, redisigned, and/or repurposed some stuff that been dead since 3, like Spiny Cheep Cheeps, Parabeetles, Deep Cheeps, Hammer Bros. courses as enemy courses Eep Cheeps; Eep Cheeps originally being an unused skin. Similarly to how NSMBU reintruduced a lot of stuff from World like Bony Beetle and Sumo Bros (even having a boss Sumo Bro!). In fact, one thing I'll say SMB3 had was a TON of secrets and a lot of enemies that never appeared again. With a chance to maybe some original bosses, maybe at least one new world, maybe some returning long forgotten enemies, or least some interesting new ones or seeing what the Koopalings are going try in their boss fights this time if your going to stick with them; I couldn't wait for a (New) New Super Bros. game now that I thought I was all caught up. And I waited. Eventually, a New Super Mario Bros. Deluxe was announced and I perked up. We all know how that ended. Nowadays, I know how people feel about these games. It's more than clear at this point that New Super Mario Bros. games are most likely dead in the water, but this also probably takes out the 2D Mario platformer genre entirely. This is a series with over 200 games and only like 12 of them are 2D platformers. So with the NSMB series dead, it's hard to know for sure when we'll ever see a new (no, Super Mario Run does not count). Though, I really just don't agree that these games are "easy". I remember even to this day having problems with some of the stages. Playing Ludwig's Castle even now when I'm good at it, regardless of power-up or how long I kept it, it constantly gave me the feeling that I could screw up at any moment and subsequently die even when not going for Star Coins (where dying resets your non-checkpointed progress), and there's just some points where it's easy to just screw up and get hit, IDK maybe that's just me. Back in 201(8/9), I got NSMBW again got the same friend with and beat the game and then got all the Star Coins, I still look back on that memory. Though NSMB is dead, it can still make memories even in 2069 (lol). They reused what we already had enemies, themes, gimmicks, objects and did different things with them, the doing DIFFERENT things with them in a way it doesn't feel rehashed they should've leaned into more. Sorry for the nostalgia wave. 8:12 I mean, there was that ONE level... 10:27 The first underwater level of the water world "introduces" Bloopers to the player, the theme of the stage being that it's absolutely filled to the brim with them with them (someone counted 24 including the 2 Blooper Nannies) Bloopers being the theme of the stage, they also demonstrate their ability to hide behind objects, something this game introduced for them. On top of that Spiny Cheep Cheeps only appeared on their own in earlier stages, but at some point in this stage now your dealing with them and Bloopers at the same time, giving an unarmed player no choice but to try to swim as fast you can past them. And also having the first of 2 Cheep Chomp in the entire game. Not the most interesting stage in execution, but I wouldn't call it bland. 11:59 I mean TECHNICALLY Yoshi's in 6 levels, 1-3, 2-5, 3-2, 4-5, 6-4 and 7-6. The worlds kinda make sense because Yoshi probably wouldn't want to go in the dark world, and the dino not being in the jungle world specifically makes sense because...uh... 18:35 It's made even worst when you realized they KINDA tried to offset the two with the Ice Flower by making the Ice Flower's effects last longer, I think. It's been awhile.

I just wanna say... I know I’m some random guy in the comments you don’t know, but this game is my favorite in the whole series, quite possibly in my top 3 most favorite games of all time. It’s the literally definition of my childhood. I just have great memories of things like... My dad hosting a projector movie night on our front lawn with everyone from my neighborhood, and then coming inside after it was over and playing this thing to death despite it being midnight... Ahh, good times...

If they had ended the "New" series with the DS & Wii versions ir would be a much less hated series. NSMB2 was where it went downhill, but Wii was the best in the series IMO, with DS a close second

I don’t agree with all your points but I respect your opinion! Nsmbw is my favorite New Mario game, and especially compared to U which was the equivalent of eating a piece of moldy bread that you haven’t opened yet and calling it “Brand new”. And Nsmb2 which only has 6 MAIN WORLDS (seriously sm3dw had 8 main world and 8 special ones! How the hell did they get away with this?!) It’s amazing ALSO THE BEACH LEVELS WERE AMAZING! In my opinion all the other games stomp that idea of having amazing beach levels to the ground

[@RJIS]

14:28 nah, I prefer the Bowser fight in NSMBU. Also, I think it’s like this for the final level: Epic level, underwhelming boss. OR Underwhelming level, epic boss.
