Budgetron, almost every party I’ve been to at your house ends up with some Mario Kart. And most parties at my place involve Rock Band…

This is WAY better than the DS version, which I felt was a step backwards for the franchise. This is more difficult, the powerups actually DO something, and there are fun updates to old concepts (dungeons being candlelit, making it hard to see question blocks and flying enemies? yes please). I would recommend this to any Mario fan. Also, why is it that Nintendo never saw it fit to showcase the great single player aspects? I don’t want a multi-player Mario game and almost didn’t get thi cause I thought it was just another “party game”. When I hang out with friends I party, not play games.

It greatly resembles New super Mario for the DS. Greatly. And personally I can’t get enough of the 2D platformers, so while this might have been easier than I would have hoped, I couldn’t see myself not getting it.

You can roll through most mario games in a day.. now the joys of mario games at least for me is replayablity and going back and hitting the stuff I missed.. if it is anything like the DS new mario bros than I see no reason not to pick it up.

I thought Twilight Princess was good. Ganon wasn’t any harder in Windwaker. (I don’t even think I had to use a potion.)
I think I beat SMW in a day as well. (Although, it might be a little longer than this one, and easily the better of the two.)
It’s still challenging, and I haven’t been all the way through solo yet, so that might prove to be lots harder. (I doubt it though, because I am cruising through pretty fast.)

You beat it in one day? Is it even worth getting? I mean, one of the joys of SMB3 or SMW was the depth of the worlds that made it very difficult to beat in a day, especially on the first try (and w/o cheats or warps). I was excited to get it, but now it seems like it might be another one of those games that’s so easy you never care to touch it again after you beat it….like Twilight Princess.
