Super Mario Bros Wonder Did The IMPOSSIBLE... | Review/Impressions

- You may have noticed that we're arriving late with this review. Well, that's because I never really planned to pick this one up. If my Sonic Superstars review wasn't enough evidence, 2D platforming games were never my cup of tea. They're not bad, but I mesh better with narrative driven or role playing games. With the undeniable reviews for Super Mario Bros Wonder, I had to see what all the buzz was about. Did it manage to convert me?
Just had to note that the thing where you thought you had to run against the current and parachute was actually a thing where you were supposed to hit that timer block and run along the blocks before time runs out
I was like bro 😂
He’s trying to tap into the game reviewer mindset 😂
I don’t think this guy has a single clip of him running in this entire video. I don’t think he knew you could even run 🤣
Just broooo Matty my brother there’s a block right there. Just hit it 😂
Those items you're referring to where your interaction with the stages change are not wonder seeds. They are actually called Wonder Flowers that reward you with a wonder seed when you have successfully completed those stage alterations.
Ok
5:34 Uh you’re supposed to hit the Switch to turn the panels on and then you run on it lol
good review matty
But please hold the RUN BUTTON
My daughter and I were playing it right as you put this out. Imo this game is so good. Usually with Mario games I play some and turn it off. But with this one, I want to keep playing. This game is so creative it's not possible to put into words. The look on my little ones face is priceless with some of the Wonder Flowers and that is money well spent right there. I highly recommend it. 😊
Playing it with my 4 year old (5 next month, somehow). It's just the best.
I'm the exact same, I run away from platformers. But I played it at EGX and absolutely fell in love. This is the first platformer I decided to give my time in 5+ years! It's so much fun
Bruh
Mario always knows how to pull in bitches
One thing not mentioned here is the ONLINE COMPONENT of *_Wonder!_* The system of Shades, Ghosts and Standees is absolutely *_fantastic_* and I've encountered several "Sunbro types" who just hang out in the more-difficult stages and help players with items and revives!
“Difficult” it’s Mario my man
@@Deadlyvoltage3 Mario used to be difficult dude. Lately it hasnt been, because its more profitable to cater to casuals, but back on game boy mario was fucking hard
He
He really doesn't like to press the Y button right?
Does Matty know you can sprint in this game 😂
Ha youre right! He only ran racing against wiggler. Such a classic non 2d platformer characteristic 😆. Most hold run constantly.
I love your content man, but for the love of God please use the run button when playing a 2D. Mario, this is actually painful 🤣🤣🤣🤣
Gotta respect the efforts for your retrospectives are very good and at least I respect it takes a lot more time to breakdown decades of entertainment!
No offense to whoever was playing but I really hope that was not Matty's gameplay footage it looked like a little kid or IGN journalist was trying to play the game for the first time. 😂
Well it kinda like a new game so of course it will take time to get used to it
Tbf, if it was IGN, it would take just be first time playing it would be hours in still. They're just trash at games no matter how long they play the game for
“Been out for a while”?!? It has been 8 days, Matty.
I literally was checking this out to see if it would be worth picking up on Black Friday for my kids😀 thanks Matty!!!
This game did what I thought was impossible and topped Super Mario World as my favorite 2D Mario game
Super Mario Bros. Wonder is easily my Game of the Year. I'll admit I'm biased, I love 2D, and Mario 2D platformers in particular, but I do think it's a legit awesome game and the true sequel to Super Mario World that I waited for since way back in the early 90s.
It definitely is the best 2d Mario since World. There are a lot of intentional callbacks too it too. Mario World's charm still puts it at the top for me but Wonder is much better than the soulless NSMB titles.
@@sd5919
Oh yeah, I liked the NSMB titles, I'll admit it, especially NSMB Wii, but Wonder is on a much higher level. I'd still have World at the top, too, but Wonder is competing with SMB 3 to be a close second.
@@sd5919Don't forget Land 2. Land 2 is also great.
Man, imagine a Soulslike Mario game. Doesn’t have to be gory or grim, but like every combat encounter is like Elden Ring and the bosses are hard af 🤣
Funnily enough the ad before this video was the same ad he played in it.😂
Hell yeah. I've been addicted to 100%ing this thing for the past week. Loving it and happy you're sharing your review, Matty!
Finished 100% it
There’s games I’m feeling way more than 2d Mario too. Great review 👍
For those too that are saying that Matty should 'run' with Mario in this review, why? If there is no time limit to this game, why should you? Unless of course you are a speed runner, which most of us aren't because we prefer to take our time.
Can you imagine a Mainline Mario Game where DK is playable ?
Beware that the Final Final badge marathon is going to put you through hell
2D Mario done right is unbeatable
This is my favorite 2D Mario game since Super Mario World. I also play this game with the SNES controller and it adds an extra layer of nostalgia
The special world has the most challenging levels and feels like free dlc 🙌
Hey Matty! I love your retro rebound channel I'm not a fan off all the games put here but I love most of them as they give me nostalgia. I have a special request if you see this comment. I'd love for you to do a retro rebound for Def Jam Fight for New York. I know you love wrestling so I figured this game would be up your ally. It's a top favorite of mine as a child
Wonder FLOWERS. Not wonder seeds. They are literally flowers. You can see that just by looking at them 😂
Wow, I'm surprised that a channel all about old school gaming (hence "Retro" Rebound) would have a host that isn't that into platformers, at least the 2D variety. It's not what I would expect. I also didn't expect you to enjoy Sonic Superstars more than Mario Wonder. Most generally agree that the new Mario is (at least) a tad bit better than the new Sonic.
(Psst. Also, where are you in One Piece? I'm catching up with the series too and I wanna know where you are since your last One Piece game video.)
Born in 1986, I'm a lifelong Mario fan
Me and my daughter friggin love this game! It was straight up so much fun
Meanwhile deep in the 2d mario kaizo community we're all excited about the tech.
I've already seen shell jumps, ground pound cancels and midair bubble jumps. This games going to have a banging speedrun
You’d like Rayman Legends as well.
Rayman is seriously my favorite platformer. Mario wonder reminded me actually alot of it.
Not played a platformer this good since tropical freeze
Weird question but is this game better than new super mario bros wii?
By a longshot
I see you’re a Mets fan I see your Rangers fan. Any chance you’re also a Jets fan?
Mario, even if the Nsmb games were largely all identical, is the most innovative franchise of all time. They always try new things and more often than not it hits..it's incredible.
Let’s go RANGERS!
My favorite platformers are probably Super Meat boy and the new Rayman games. So fun

best 2d mario game since yoshi's island
If it will make you feel better, i am also wasn't into 2D Sonic and Mario that much.
Super fun game and i havent been in love with 2d mario in a couple decades or so haha
Such a great game I’m a Mario guy. Let my friends try it out who are not platformers and they strugggggggledddd 😂
My finance account on Twitter talks about mixing finance with other topics like video games like, for example I turn based RPG where are the badges are actual credit cards
buying wonder today and preordering mario rpg too
Never been a fan of platformers....but id probably enjoy a few games with the kids.
Bruh
such a great game
6:45 you mean wonder flowers, right? Wonder seeds are the colllectibles.
The only Mario games I enjoy playing are the 2D platforming ones. I get bored with the 3D open world Mario games
I enjoyed it, but once you beat it, thats pretty much it. I have no desire to replay it.
It's a good game, just got today, and have played an hour of it so far, and it's good, fun and honestly way better the super mario odyssey and galaxy 1 and 2, over all
Damn that’s some high praise!
@bart3736 I've been playing Mario since was kid, born in 1989, and after super mario sunshine the 3d marios got, not good at all, new super mario bros was okay, didn't play after that, mostly didn't have chance, mario galaxy s had potential, but was ruined by motion controls, snd odyssey, well just was more of the same galaxy with kess motion controls, but still involved them, wich to me takes away from the over all experience of the game, wonder, playing it feeks like playing older mario again , wich is whatvthe franchise needs
You like dk64 and didnt mention tropical freeze.
Love your work Matty but I think a retrospective of 2D Mario Games would do some good for this channel. Not to say you didnt give this game any respect, and you gave valid caveats based on your gaming history. But glossing over key details and missing gameplay elements (and not using the run button in gameplay) makes it obvious you arent too familiar with the 2D franchise or bull rushed through for the sake of a review. Which is totally fine, it just didnt feel like you gave the game the respect it deserved like you do other titles ive watched your reviews on.
There is a reason a lot of us hold 2d & 3d mario in high regards and its not just nostalgia. I just think you'd find you would appreciate it a lot more if you dived a little bit deeper. Keep up the great work!
I respect these games but I just cant get invested in them to play more than a level or two.
as hardcore mario fan hearing u stopped after deluxe on the game boy triggers me 🙃
No it doesn't
Yo there are many needlessly pendantic comments on this video.
I'm sorry but respectfully I disagree Matty with what you said about 3D Mario. To each their own though and don't get me wrong Matty. Yes 3D is the natural evolution in gaming in general, BUT having said that, in my opinion there are just some franchises that should be left untouched. Mario included. Yes Odyssey was cool and yes I do have Odyssey on my Switch, but Mario always has been a 2D platformer, side-scroller. And to me, that's the way it should remain.
Sonic games are so flowed in it's most basic design I could never get into it. Despite trying it for years with each new iteration.
Flawed how
The Controls and Level are the best parts
I just came here because for the first time this dude is not all xbox this and xbox that. Good to try some other games and have some variety and be more open minded. Great video!
This channel isn’t Xbox focused at all. His podcast with Cog is.
Tell me you actually don't watch Maddie's content without telling me you don't watch Maddie's content....
I am by no means, no stretch of the imagination, a real Nintendo "fan." (I *respect* Nintendo. But I am not a "fan.") Hell, the three games that got me to get a Nintendo Switch, the first Nintendo console I have owned since the NEW, was Bayonetta 2, Bayonetta 3, and Astral Chain - three *PlatinumGames* games. Not Nintendo games.
I'm not a Mario fan, either. I *respect* Mario games, of course. But aside from Mario Odyssey, which I got simply because I had a Switch and it was on sale for 34 bucks, so why not? Aside from that game, I haven't found a Mario worth my time since Super Mario 64. (And before that, in order, Super Mario World, 3, 2, and 1.) Mario just does not appeal to adult me.
All that heing said... they managed to make a Mario game that is appealing to even *ME.* And honestly? That is impressive as hell.
While it isn't a "day one game" for me or anything, I will definitely be picking up this game in the future at some point; when it goes on a sale or something. 👍🏾
How was Bayo 3? I watched Max play it and it didn't seem all that great. Not as good as 1 and 2.
Okay let's calm down they're not breaking any new ground it's basically the same mario game with a fresh coat of paint
Lol chill bruh it's a seriously good and fun game. Don't hear anyone calling it the Great Gatsby of video be games haha
Just to point out remove all gimmicks like the wonder flower the medal and more, what is left is the same old 2d mario game, is just waste of money if you buy this
Lol convinced this guy's over exposure to trash licensed games blinded him to good games and genres.
Oh God... This is some small peen energy...please don't make my eyes roll any harder....they are going to fall right out of my head.
Game might be very good but I'm sceptical. Get the impression from the reviews that the game is extravagant to meet the name wonder. But do I really care to play as an elephant in a mario game? Do I care for water to be upside down? Do i really need so much colours especially if looking to play a game to relax.Mario magic was always the parcour and acrobatics element. Not a Disney game. But let's see, guess I'll buy it with all these great reviews.
Hi, I'm a random dude. My daughter and I enjoyed the hell out of this game.
There. There is you non corporate shill review. 🙄
Am I the only one that thinks this game is a solid 8/10? 😂 it’s just way too easy and past the halfway point, the novelty of the wonder seeds wore off completely. I was so over it every time it came up. And the bosses were meh. I thought it was really fun still but not one of the best rated games of all time good… I just don’t get it
Matty didn't seem to like the game as much as other reviewers.. I would give it a 7/10...never been a fan of platformers but good fun for kids.
And that's Ok, just for you rate as a 8/10 is a great qualifier of the product, for me this is one of the best Mario games of all time, even better than Galaxy.
I love doing challeges in this game and keep repeating the levels.
Keep in mind it’s made for kids
I mean the past Mario games got pretty hard at points, especially in the 90's-early 2000's so....@@Agonized_Soul
@@Agonized_Soul dafuq you talking about dude, all Mario games are "Made for Kids"
WTH is going on here?. First A bad xbox partner showcase video. Now you not even hitting blocks that's in your face. No run button? & some wonders do repeat. But not many.
Marigoat Wonder
You are bad at this game
It's weird that you leave comments like this.
@@Cubs1719 you're so pendantic
You’re not supposed to review this. It’s not an Xbox game
