This feels like a director’s cut of 3D Land. Slightly more interesting level design, but still boring for a Mario game. The top-down camera not only makes most levels feel samey, but also makes jumping risky due to poor depth perception. I know that was done for the multiplayer, but the levels feel like they were designed for two players at most and online play is prone to lag. The game is definitely better in single-player, but both types of play fall short, which suggests Nintendo had mixed priorities during its development. It’s still fun, but there are better Mario games to choose from.
