New Super Mario Bros

What is there not to like about this game. Fun for all ages. This is easily one of the best games for DS. As old as it is, it would be a great gift for someone with a DS that has not played it yet. The beauty of this game is simple platforming. Jumping on things, great colorful environments. Good for ages 7 and up. Only because of the game mechanics.

The one issue I have with the game, is that if you lose all five lives the game starts over and you have to start from the beginning again which becomes very annoying and frustrating. Other than that the game is packed with fun features! I mean, the games are fun and original, and the mini games! they are the bomb! Your children will spend hours playing this addicting game! So cheak it out! Youll be glad you did.

My family loves this Super Mario Bros game. I purchased it back in 2014. I played nintendo Super Marios growing up, so when I saw this, I bought for more kids, when I knew that I myself wanted to play this game. I love playing it with my kids. We have four Wii remotes, so I can play with my three kids (ages 14,12, and 9). We have playing it off and on for the last two years. We have solved it, but yet they still continue to play it. When they have friends over, this is the game that the play with most on the Wii. Sometimes they argue (you took my mushroom, you took my flower, etc), but overall we all have fun and work together to search for the coins and pass each world. If you ever played Mario brothers growing up, then you will defiantly want to give this game a try.

Heres the thing. we got our son a 3ds for x mas. With the 3ds he got a handful of ds, and 3ds games that I ordered off of this website. Some of them were new, and some of them were used. This game stood out from all of the games that I ordered. The reason being is that this game was used, but the seller failed to mention that there was no box that came with the game. How crazy is that. The game came in a plastic wrapping, in a small brown envelope. Instead of sending it back and going with a diffrent seller, (it was so close to the holidays) we decided to keep it. I put the game into the 3ds because I wasnt about to wrap a bare game and stick it under the tree. Needless to say, he loves the game. We told him that Santa put that game in his 3ds special for him. (Gotta love 7 year olds!) He never asked for the box. Besides the missing box, and directions sheet, the game works like new.I will continue to purchase used games from this website, but I will not purchase from this seller again. like new to me means in its origional package, with no scratches. In other words mint condition. Lets work on our communication skills. I give an overall C.

This game is thought to be ideal. It not only combines a classic favorite in video gaming but also the visual aestheticism of todays graphic quality. It was shipped along with a number of other things I had ordered (very quickly I might add) and I would definitely buy again from this seller.

I ordered this used in good condition and it arrived exactly as said. This is one of my favorite Mario games, I really like that it comes with of bunch of minis. My kids also really like it. To me Mario is a classic and something anyone of any age can like. I never bore or tire of said games.

This game is so much fun. It would be a plus if there was more cool features but it had plenty, i guess i am just being greedy because this is a game i played when i was growing up and now its nice to play it again with better graphics and other improvements. oh and most importantly, you can play with your friends multi player game option thats going to keep you guys busy for hours- laughing and screaming, its great!- its too much to explain in terms of what makes the multi player so awesome but it is, it really really is.

Like all these over priced cartridges my kids love them for a month or so and then grow tired of it. I did ask my kids what they thought of the game before writing this review (6 and 9). They simply gave me the standard answer, Its OK, its fun. However, I can tell my 9 year old daughter has outgrown the meager value and simplistic nature of the DS. Sorry for the poor product review, but the majority of these Mario games all look about the same considering the very grainy graphics, 2 square screen and 2D play. Its a good time waster for my kids while driving, but I have realized that the screen is so small that they are often straining from 12 inches away to see the characters. To be flat out honest, I dont know why anybody would pay $200 for a DS when you can by a 7 tablet for the same amount of money. I dont sell electronics for a living but the tablets have significantly more capability, power, appealing graphics and most important - Free software! I thought size was the primary issue for buying the DS, but all my sons friends have crash cases which make carrying their DS similar to carring around a brick. I didnt buy the DS for my kids, but I did buy the cartridge used on Amazon. It was packaged, looks and works like new for one-third the price. Apparently thousands of kids that are much older than my kids love the DS device and all the Mario games. I wish someone could explain to me why compared to other devices and products on the market that are much more capable and cheaper to play.

First let me explain that this isnt a remake of the original Super Mario Bros. Instead, its a try into revitalizing the once great Super Mario Bros. series. This game is influenced by Super Mario Bros. with the each stages gameplay and finish pole. Its influenced by Super Mario Bros. 3 with its map layout of each world, along with its toad houses and hammer dudes walking around. Its influenced by Super Mario World with some stages backgrounds and gameplay elements including the climbing on the fences. The graphics for this game are very nice. All the characters are rendered in 3d as well as some of the backgrounds. They blend nicely together. No complaints. Mario and Luigi look different from each other this time around. Just as they should. I didnt pay too much attention to sound, but one thing that did annoy me was what Mario said after finishing each level. Well.. what is sounded like he said was, Thank you so nice! which is irritating to hear so many times. The english is so bad, that its unbearable. Now onto the lackluster part. The gameplay. The game is easy. Not only that, but they provide you with a crap load of power ups beyond the ones in the stages, making it even easier. If that werent enough, they also keep 2 out of the 8 worlds as an unlockable secret. But wait, if youre lucky enough, you might also accidentally discover a way to only do 3 worlds before getting to world 8. So, chop the game in less than half and thats its length. And youre done. Its way too easy and it seems like they dont even want you to play through the game. And then on top of that, theres a lackluster ending. Is there any motivation to complete the other worlds? No! The levels arent even challenging. I had 50 lives after 3 worlds. Nintendo knows how non-challenging the game is. Thats why you cant save when you want, just every time you complete a castle or spend star-coins. And thats annoying. So much for a pick up and play game. To spice things up, each stage has 3 stars-coins to collect, some of which require some thinking, but most are easy. And what do they do, give you powerups to make the game even easier. You dont have to collect the stars, its pointless. You could collect them only for collectings sake. There are also red coins to collect. They give you powerups as well for collecting them within the given time limit. It cant get any easier. This game features 3 power ups not included in any other mario game. First you can grow to super size. They give you this way too often and what does this do, it gives you up to 5 lives, the amount depending on how much destruction you cause. Save those for levels filled with bricks its easy lives. The 2 other power-ups are worthless. One that makes you really tiny, useless against enemies makes this one just for finding secrets. The problem is that they almost never give this power-up to you in the level where the secrets are at. So youll have to go find one where there is and play that level to get it. This becomes quickly annoying. The other powerup gives you a turtle shell so you can slide like a turtleshell against enemies. Since the flower is much easier to play with, this powerup goes to help acquire secrets in stages that, also dont provide the powerup. Fetch it boy. This ones rare. Super annoying. The castle boss battles are also easy. If you get to the boss with fire powerup, which is super easy to do, since you can always carry a spare poweup with you, that you cant lose by dying, and call upon it whenever you need it, the boss becomes very little of a challenge. Even the final boss battle at the end of the game was easy. Sometimes all you need is super mario so that you dont die crossing the bridge to the other side to drop the bridge. The mini games are recycled from Super Mario 64 DS and so is the multiplayer from every other mario game. So this should last you a bit (sarcasm). Great extras Nintendo! (more sarcasm). It would have been nice if you included the original super mario bros as a nice extra. But what am I thinking, that wouldve been a good idea. VERDICT This game is Disappointing. Its short and easy. It seemed nice in the first world, until it got too repetitive and easy. If you want to play a Mario game better than this, go play super mario advance 4: Super Mario Bros. 3. The game looks, feels, sounds, and breathes like a super mario game. In fact, the game is fun to play, but its flaws are too much for me and thats why I wouldnt buy it. Otherwise it would be a great game. You know its easier to find the secret to skipping the game than it is to find the secret to unlock the hidden 1/4. Doesnt that suck.

So far, havent found anything about this game I dislike. This game was purchased for my son on his Nintendo 2ds platform. Its a great take on the Mario game while remaining reminiscent of the original Super Mario Bros., but with many improvements. My five year old son was amazed that his father knew how to play it, which made me chuckle a bit. The levels do a good job of getting more challenging as you go and all the little additions to the game are great! The giant Mario mushroom is my sons favorite, allowing Mario to grow to enormous size and squash the mushrooms and Koopas and kick the warp tunnels out of the way. Nintendo had a smash hit with this game when it was introduced all those years ago, and with every iteration reinvents it enough to make it a hit with another generation of kids. Great job guys, the whole family loves the game.
