  • 2D Mario is one of the most iconic series in gaming. However, as time passed the series became more and more stale. But, with the release of Super Mario Bros. Wonder, 2D Mario is back and better than ever. In this video I go over what makes the game so amazing, and well, perfect! This is my Super Mario Bros. Wonder retrospective, enjoy!

    I was sceptical that the game would be like 1-2 where wonder effects and the game its self dont change the gameplay and try to hard to be weird so it feels unnatural, but im super glad i was wrong

Ill have to watch it again but he didnt exactly go in depth on the abilities besides what they do instead of how unique they make going through levels, especially bubble and drill. And there really wasnt as much appreciation for the art direction, animation, and soundtrack of the game besides a few comparisons and callouts.

    One thing I wanna say is as much as the boss fights were a little underwhelming for me. I appreciate the focus they put on the levels themselves. I would find myself speed running the “New soup” games only to get to the castle levels, not really enjoying the cookie cutter levels in different layouts. I actually enjoyed playing the levels themselves and it’s been a while since I have looked forward to playing the next level.

    I doubt it is a true successor to NSMB in any way intended even you wish it is. While wonder flower and the wonder seed are cool mechanics, it is lacking in a lot of way including the multiplayer, challenges(the one in NSMBU) and the bosses. I believe even though they had many idea for bosses in wonder, to focus on the one time mechanics such as the wonder flower that would disappear, these were instead saved for the next game. They were simply working on 2 games, one derivate more and focus on the wonder mechanics being Mario wonder, the other game would be more of a general continuation of NSMB.(I believe they would still modernise it as the NSMB was outdated in 2023) This would still probably kept some of wonder’s mechanics like badge, but probably nerfed and adopted to the Mario formula. They game aims to break the general stagnation of the Mario IP for once but not much influence on future games

    It was a fun game, but I didn't like it as much as I wanted to. There were no returning power ups besides the fire flower and star and I'm just not that attached to the new ones. The elephant is fine I guess, drill is cool but nothing special, and the bubble power up is a great one. Why didn't we see the blue shell, penguin, or propeller hat? Plus, the bosses are just terrible. Sure, we had the Koopalings the past 3 games but replacing them with only Bowser Jr was not an improvement. Also, why does the multiplayer camera focus on 1 person instead of panning out like in Wii? Now instead of being able to spread out a little bit you're stuck to each other.
    Overall, I enjoyed the game and liked it, but I still think Wii was just a better experience. Better new power ups, unique bosses (at the time), and a way better multiplayer experience.

      Bro the bosses are better. It’s ONLY worse for YOU because you only fight Jr and Bowser at the end obviously. First improvement is that you can’t just jump on their heads RIGHT after their invulnerable phase. Now you can actually let them do their attacks and make the boss fight last more than 10 seconds. Oh and it isn’t a 3 hit kill like always.
      I swear if the bosses weren’t all Jr, people would like them. They are better fights then the other NSMB games. Not by a lot but definitely better

    Personally, as someone whose favorite game ever is New Super Mario Bros Wii, I hate the new game. Was super excited for it, but super dissapointed. Not that it doesn't have great qualities(Looks amazing, creative, etc), but it messes up the #1 reason I play these games, and it messes up very badly.
    The local multiplayer, in my experience, is genuinely terrible. Firstly the obvious thing, you can't interact anymore with your friends, no more throwing or jumping on each other. That takes a lot of fun out of the game for me, as someone who plays these games casually as a means to bond with others. And while you can still mess with each other by throwing shells at each other, hurting/killing each other serves almost no purpose and actually negatively affects you, which discourages that kind of thing too, which sucks. Why? Because you now all share lives. And since you can't mess with your friends, that means all you have to do in the game is play as intended and just beat the game. That's it.
    That doesn't sound so bad, but that brings me onto my next point;
    The player following system is actually terrible. Since there is nothing to do other then beat the level, when you play with others, usually people just get left behind if you go too fast or if they aren't as skilled, or if the level set up is vertical or timing based. This pretty much either kills all your friends or leaves them unable to play until the certain section or level is over, or it forces you to slow down and wait, essentially just handicapping you.
    I recently played the game with some friends on a friend's switch and thought it was "alright", but then after that we booted up the wii and played the old game, and I laughed my ass off for 30 minutes straight. The new game SUCKS compared to the old one. Yes, it's got great visuals, new powerups, enemies, and all kinds of special stuff, but it fails for me as a new 2d mario game.
    What is the overall difference between the games? Mostly, I can summarize it into this. The older game was DESIGNED for multiplayer, the new game feels more like a single player game with a multiplayer option. And especially for families playing together, this absolutely blows. You're not going to have those same memories of messing with your siblings in mario, because you can't do that anymore. You're probably just gonna get mad at each other for being to fast or too slow.
    I see why this game would work in singleplayer but I am not a singleplayer mario enjoyer, the reason the wii game is my favorite game of all time is because of how much opportunity it gives you as friends to interact with each other. You can use the multiplayer features to help each other, or to sabotage each other. And you have a number that holds value that you can also make conflicts over(your lives), but only if you want to. And you can fight over powerups, etc. It's difficult to name just what makes it so special, but when you play the game you can feel it all the time. The new game does not have this, at all.
    I'd personaly rate the game a 3/10. Some moments can be fun but other times it's dull or even stressful and not for the right reasons.
    Oh I also hate the elephant powerup, maybe if it was more rare it'd be cool but it sucks as is. Can't explain it, just don't like it, my brother agrees. We both avoid it whenever it presents itself.

      You do realise the reason they removed collision between players was so they could make the levels less empty for single player. Wii’s levels are boring af in single player because of how barren and sporadic they are because they had to accommodate for up to 4 players that could crash into each other or jump on each other’s heads.

      @fidboi2715 6 หลายเดือนก่อน +1

      @@callinater6133 I literally made a point that the difference between the two games seems to be that one was MADE for multiplayer when in the other it feels more like it was made for single player and that the multiplayer felt more like an after thought. So yes I realize this, but this change, as someone who plays these kinds of Mario games FOR the multiplayer, it ruins the game. And given that Mario is a family game I think it will affect many families as well.
      And I mentioned other complaints with multiplayer other then the removal of collision, such as the bad player following system and high speeds feeling very restrictive and hard to follow.
      Again I can see why the game is enjoyable in single player but I wouldn't ever play Mario alone, so for me it completely ruins it and it probably does for many others.

      And much like with Kevin Afghani (the new voice of Mario and Luigi), people are whinnig about the poor person for repleacing Deanna Mustard. With people saying that "she" (Giselle Fernandez is non-binary, you can all stop referring them with singular female nouns, BTW) can never be Daisy because "I didn't grow up with this person" or "Only binary people can do voice acting"
