It's hard for me to think about this game from a critical perspective considering just how important it's been in my life these past few years. Obviously it's not perfect and there's an endless amount of things I could nitpick, and even some huge flaws in game design and execution that do significantly bring down the experience. Lackluster story mode is a big one, and the terrible online functionality is definitely disappointing.
Ultimately though, nothing I can complain about will undermine all the fun I've had playing with friends and family, watching or going to tournaments and becoming a part of the community. There's no other game that can bring people together quite like Smash Bros, and no other gaming event that generates as much hype as a bombshell character like Banjo or Steve being revealed.
Unlike some others, I don't expect Ultimate will be the last game in the series, in fact I hope we get something of a reboot for the next title. The core gameplay is and will always be brilliant, and any issues I may have with character design come secondary to that fact. It is no hyperbole to say that I would be a different person without Smash in my life, and I just hope that I can continue to feel passionate about this game in the future.

It's Mario. Everyone likes Mario. There is quite literally nothing I could say about this game that hasn't beed stated a thousand times before. It's classic, iconic, fun, I don't believe you can be a gamer and not have played this at some point.
This is probably the most nothing burger game I've ever played. It's incredibly bland even for NSMB standards, that being said the levels are still well designed and it's decently fun overall.
The coin gimmick doesn't add much to the gameplay, it is still by and large just standard 2D Mario. The gold flower is a cool power-up so I will give props for that. Not much else to say, it's by far the most forgettable mainline Mario game, but I still had fun playing it.
