painfully average mario experience; probably his worst 2D outting. this is by far the blandest of the new super mario bros. games and makes sense considering it's a wii title. this one, unlike every other new super mario bros. game, has basically nothing going for it besides the simultaneous multiplayer, which is ... questionably implemented at best. the levels when playing singleplayer are just massive and empty, there isn't a good balance. music is pretty much ripped from the first game too but they removed a couple bangers.

despite this, it is still a mario platformer, and they're never too bad. everything feels fair and whatnot.
