Super Mario Bros. Wonder was a delight !
I'm really glad a necessary shakeup was done to the 2D Mario formula. The art direction in general was stunning and magical, and the gameplay ideas very inspired and fun. It truly felt like a big amusement park ride with a bunch of little weird moments every time you pick up a wonder flower. You never know what you're going to get, which makes each one feel special. Ideas aren't always fully developed, but they went for more quantity (with quality) then depth here.
The talking flowers were surprisingly funny to me. Also, put em' in Canadian French and they become 100 times better.
I was really pleasantly surprised by this game since I'd heard a lot of critiques. I generally thought it was a win for Nintendo and this franchise even if it's not the most innovative or memorable of all the Mario games. It was an extremely polished, simple and very enjoyable romp in the Flower Kingdom either way.
