New Super Mario Bros. Wii, like all the previous releases in the Super Mario Bros. franchise is a side-scrolling platforming game where players collect coins as they attempt to make their way through progressively more difficult game levels using their ability to time jumps over obstacles and avoid a slew of enemies. But although the game contain several well-deserved nods to previous games in the series in the form of iconic characters like Mario, Luigi and two Toads, as well as familiar enemies, sound effects and levels, it is not simply another trip down Mario Bros. memory lane. Taking advantage of the flexibility and power of the Wii and Wii Remote, New Super Mario Bros. Wii manages to preserve the retro experience that fans love about the series, while adding new game features. Notable additions among these include, expansive play levels and new powerups and characters, but by far the most important, and in fact game-defining new feature is simultaneous multiplayer.
A Franchise First: Simultaneous Multiplayer
Since the very first Super Mario Bros. game took the world by storm in the late 1980s gamers anxious to get into the action have patiently and impatiently waited their turn as the infamous 'player 2.' Those days are no more. In New Super Mario Bros. Wii players can now navigate the side-scrolling worlds alone as before or invite up to three others to join them at the same time, on the same level, at any point in the game for competitive and cooperative multiplayer fun. With the multiplayer mode, the newest installment of the most popular video game franchise is designed to bring yet another type of family entertainment into living rooms and engage groups of friends in fast-paced Super Mario Bros. fun.
Controller Choices Via the Wii Remote
In another nod to the series' Nintendo Entertainment System (NES) roots, the Wii Remote controller used with New Super Mario Bros. Wii is held sideways, allowing for easy, classic inputs using the D-pad to direct playable characters, the 1 button to jump and 2 button to spit out projectiles like snowballs and fireballs. In addition, players can access powerups with their choice of either the push of a button, or by shaking the Wii remote, again demonstrating the perfect merging of classic gameplay and modern game design which is New Super Mario Bros. Wii.
Key Game Features
- New Super Mario Bros. Wii offers a combination of cooperation and competition. Players can pick each other up to save them from danger or toss them into it.
- Supports 2-4 players in multiplayer mode.
- Mario, Luigi and two Toads are all playable characters, while many others from the Mushroom Kingdom make appearances throughout the game. Players can even ride different Yoshi characters and use their tongues to swallow enemies – or their fellow players.
- In some areas, players use the motion abilities of the Wii Remote controller. The first player to reach a seesaw might make it tilt to help his or her character reach a higher platform – and then tilt it incorrectly just to mess with other players.
- New items include the propeller suit, which will shoot players high into the sky with just a shake of the Wii Remote and Mario’s new ability to transform into Penguin Mario.
- At the end of each stage during the simultaneous multiplayer mode, players are ranked based on their score, the coins collected and the number of enemies defeated.
WARNING:

Simply put, this game is more like Super Mario 3 or Super Mario World than Mario 64 or Super Mario Galaxy. This isn't just a reflection of the fact that this game is 2D instead of 3D; it also extends to the way levels are structured and the types of power ups you get. You run, jump, swim, and sometimes fly (sort of) your way through lots of different levels to face off against Bowser. Each level includes three special coins which allow you to unlock various hint movies and as well as special levels which only become available after beating the game once. Besides the usual flower, star, and mushroom powerups, there is also a propeller hat, which lets you jump very high and slowly float to the ground, an ice flower which freezes enemies, and a penguin suit, which lets you slide (and also shoots ice fireballs).
This game is notably harder than Super Mario Galaxy, although it probably is not as hard as the original Super Mario Brothers or possibly even Super Mario 3 or Super Mario World. It is possible that complete novice gamers will find this game difficult, although the game does start out relatively easy and only gradually increases the difficulty. If you're new to games (like many owners of the Wii) and unsure of how difficult this game will be for you, give it a try at a friend's first. In any case, if you die a lot (eight times) on a level, the game will give you the option to have a computer "guide" play through the level for you, so you can see how it's done while advancing to the next stage.
The multiplayer is the most novel addition to NSMBW. Up to four players can play the game simultaneously, which is as chaotic as it sounds. Because players can pick each other up and push each other around, it is entirely possible for players to accidentally or intentionally kill each other. This can be frustrating for less skilled players, but there is always an option to "bubble", which lets you float around in an invincible bubble and follow non-bubbled players. Of course, at least one person needs to be non-bubbled at any time. This lets less skilled players take temporary breaks if they ever reach parts of the game which seem overly difficult. This also makes the game noticeably easier for players who cooperate with each other, since if you die you will shortly return to the world in a bubble, instead of sitting out until the other player dies. The only way a group of players can game over is if they all die or are bubbled at the same time. Outside of the main game, you can also play "coin battle" with other players, where you race up to three other players on a level to see who can grab the most coins.
The biggest "problem" I had with this game is that it seemed too short to me. I completed it in about ten hours or so, so this game is much shorter than Super Mario Galaxy. I didn't unlock all the special levels, so that's some additional content, but at times I felt nostalgic for the large levels in Super Mario 3 which weren't present in this game. (For example, some worlds in SMB3 had fifteen or twenty stages, while in this game most worlds only have around ten.) Additional content would have made a very enjoyable game even better, but if you enjoy platformers this game is worth getting as is. I know I had lots of fun every moment I was playing this game.
