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.
