New Super Mario Bros Wii Review & Comparison to Super Mario 3 + Mario World

[duckmeat2011]

Super Mario bros. Wii is not hard. The Orginal Super Mario bros. 2 from Japan on Famicom (Japanese NES) looks way harder.

[duckmeat2011]

In Super Mario bros. Series, the enemies that throw Spike Balls are called Spike, Orginally from Super Mario bros. 3. There is a HUGE Bowser at the end of Super Mario bros. Wii.

[deraickripper]

hard for a mario game? is the easiest 2d mario EVER in a home console.

[JeremyJSM11951]

The Heat-Seeking Bullet Bills In World 9 Are Also From Super Mario 3

[MegaSonicBro]

uuuh,,, Those enemies are called fuzzies and apeared in all of the paper mario games.

[DoGeeseSeeGod24]

I think I heard something about never having a water level in the final castle... The final castle of the original SMB has an underwater section.

[cheffington999]

ok its not any harder than smb3 or smw

[TwistyMcFisty]

I like fact that while you cant see it, he actually is playing a red cartridge. You can hear Maximum Carnage in the background.

[EffnDan]

good Ear! You must be a classic gamer.

[TwistyMcFisty]

Ya, I still have my original nintendo with the grey gun, before they changed it to orange for some odd reason.

[EffnDan]

Probably the same reason they were forced to add an orange cap at the end of the classic 80's Transformer Megatron. Because it was mistaken for a real gun. Then after that, there was some hoopla that required all toy guns to have the orange barrel or some crazy business like that. Back in the 80s you could get away with anything, people weren't as uptight as they are now.

[TwistyMcFisty]

@EffnDan Honestly. By any chance do you remember those yellow and black "Zebra" guns that shot those small hard plastic pellets that would sting when you got hit with them? They were the best. But I guess too many stupid kids were shooting each other in the face with them so they took them off the market.

[Delfino224]

@EffnDan Awesome review! I've been wanting this but haven't got the chance to get it. Btw, those "sh*tballs" were in Paper Mario on the N64. They're called "Fuzzies" :P

[medicalbudcardholder]

is super mario 1-2-3-4- world on Wii VC? Ill get it if it does

[Adam11ess]

If you mean -

Super Mario Bros. 1,2,3, Lost Levels and Super Mario World.

Then yeah, there all on VC.

[medicalbudcardholder]

Adam11ess thanks for that info im getting my points card soon then. I play them often on a 40in lcd that would be sweet or my 24inLCD for pc using mame

[dustyatari]

omg i love side scroolers especially smb3 i'm creaming over the game footage must buy wii wii is good must buy wii

[luigifan1111]

Acctually, the Koopa kids where in Mario and Luigi: Super star saga, for the GBA, so I guess that would be the last appearence of them.

[matthatter56]

This is a really good review :). The only thing I am thinking is in Super Mario Bros. 3 they let you get the raccoon feather right away. In the 1st stage you just went left a little bit and got it right away. I think Nintendo was just putting a little Nostalgia in the 1st level letting you get flying powers in the 1st stage.

[Lacktardo]

Great review. I love how Nintendo goes back to the retro gameplay of the classic Mario games as you guys have shown wonderfully.

[MasterShake1414]

You can flip over on the gates in the castles, but only in one castle I think.

[EffnDan]

You are correct. We realzied this the 2nd time playing through (when looking for all the coin). The castle (I beleive) is in World 3.

[TallKirby]

is game challenge episode 4 up next?

[GGdiskMan]

Hey I have a question. Can you play this game with the classic controller? If not can you play it with the gamecube controller?

[EffnDan]

Nope, it's strictly only compatible with the wiimote. There are parts of the game that need the motion sensor) like the wiggling your controller to fly in the sky with the propeller hat and you also wiggle the controller when you are in a bubble to get yourself closer to your friends so they can pop you out)

[yoyo10231995]

Isn't it also possible to play it with the Wiimote and Nunchuk?

[EffnDan]

Hmm, it appears so. According to the back of the box. We never used the Nunchuk, so can't vouch on the control scheme of it.

[yoyo10231995]

I imagine it's a much better and more retro experience to play with just the Wiimote.

[manuran]

THANKS FOR THIS!

I love how they take all those old things and put them in this game haha

[jewifeifei]

what was the red cartridge?

[EffnDan]

Maximum Carnage on the super Nintendo

[Eliseo]

Awesome review. This game is sweet. I didn't expect it to be mixed from previous Mario games.

[Deboogs]

I thought the same thing. Similarities: Spin Jump Flying Item Yoshi Koopas are main enemies Climb on fences Koopa Kids Ghost Houses Pick up stuff Mario world enemies I call it New Super Mario World

[olimario25]

cool review 5 stars

[2HornDogs]

i had no interest in this game, until i saw this review...its like a mix of mario 3, yoshi's island and super mario for snes. it looks fantastic!

[EffnDan]

Oh it is, this is the best Mario Game since the Super NES Days, it's a total throwback to the old school games. This is the sequel that we've been waiting for. Truly is a great game.

[NightGoblin5]

nice review, ya got yourself a sub!

[NightGoblin5]

it is fantastic

[ExtremeEffnDan2]

Hey, Jeff and Dan here - this is out 2nd channel. We're gonna be doing a playthrough of world 9 for our next video, but it's going to be on our 2nd channel (under this name), It's going to be us playing through with commentary, but we warn you, it's going to be pretty crude stuff, so if you are easily offended you may want to think twice about watching it, but if you have a twisted mind and want a good laugh, keep your Eyes peeled for it only at ExtremeEffnDan2

[iownu92]

nice review, dudes.

I think I'm gonna do my first play-through, on co-op mode. Since that seems to be the new feature, and apparently it can make it more challenging.

[uut0]

i like the graphics, and the 2 player mode is interesting but can be anoying sometimes. but i hate it if i gotta move the controler to do something

[Trencher1375]

good

[LuigiForev3r]

Cool review

[Ketorulz]

So good.

[Deliciousfruit233]

This game looks awesome. I've always been a fan of the classic 2D platforming Mario games, and I'm gonna get this. Also, awesome review.

[mollutje]

I utterly regret asking this for my birthday.. you know why.. CAUSE IT ISN'T MY BIRTHDAY UNTILL THE 27TH! can't wait that long man-_-...

[Corad4]

*Looks a th your intro pic* ......O.O...

Nice review though :3

[kibjohn]

Got to get the wii soon, but sadly, i can't afford it yet.

-kidThunder

[Ketorulz]

Spend 6-8 weeks working for 5-6 hours for $10 per hour, then you can tell me if you can afford it. lol

[zeroXshinobi]

Good stuff the comparison was great and the commentary too

keep up the reviews

i wonder what would be next?

[DeeLaitti]

Great review.

[failflicks]

Can't believe how dismissive I was of this game, gotta get it now.
