A brand new 2D Super Mario Bros. title for the Wii!

Developers at Nintendo have dreamed of creating a simultaneous multiplayer Super Mario Bros. game for decades. The Wii console finally makes that dream come true for everyone this holiday season.

Now players can 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 in New Super Mario Bros. Wii. 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.

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.
  • 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 propellor 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, coins collected and the number of enemies defeated.

The Super Mario Bros. experience long-time fans have been waiting for.

Nintendo has been making Super Mario Bros. games for as long as they've been making game consoles, and after the mammoth success of New Super Mario Bros. on DS, it comes as no real surprise to see them continuing that tradition on the Wii. And while..

I just realized something when thinking about this game, and Zelda, where the blimey heck is Four Swords Wii/Ware?

Plus, I wonder if you could change to other characters, in particular with the Toads. Would of been very nice if it had the cast from SMB2 (Of course it would mean Toad but it would add Peach).

7. Atlantis1982 United States 05 Jun 2009, 07:49 BST

Okay, I got to know where in the world I am hearing that this game is going to have 80 stages. If it ain't from the words from a well known developer of this title, then I call bull.

This WILL be the GREATEST Mario game EVER!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Yoshi is back... I loved new mario DS, and this game will be no exception...

Must-buy indeed. Looks like the next big seller.

11. minial100 Canada 21 Jun 2009, 00:57 BST

It had better be a typo that it's coming out in 2010 or else! I already have to wait for Mario Galaxy 2! C'mon Nintendo; 2009 releases please!

No thank you

14. pixelman United States 10 Jul 2009, 13:32 BST

I bet this sells better than Super Mario Galaxy 2. I can't wait for this game!

15. Kelvin United Kingdom 19 Jul 2009, 19:23 BST

I'm probably going to get this over Galaxy 2. I've always preferred 2D over 3D for platformers, and it'll be great to see a 2D platformer with all the power of a current generation console behind it.

16. yellowtails United States 23 Jul 2009, 23:30 BST

4 player co op?! This will be one of the best mario games ever, and it also has yoshi in it too.

thebigM

17. thebigM Germany 22 Aug 2009, 20:49 BST

Had the chance to play this at fhe Gamescom today in four player co-op. Plays very nice, the new propeller suit is a cool feature. I also liked the look very much. Nintendo hasn't overdone it by changing just enough to improve, but not too much, to make it hard to recognise it as SMB right away.

gameking23

This is a must buy for me. I can not wait for this game to come out. If only I had a time machine, or worked for Nintendo.

super-nintendo

20. super-nintendo United States 30 Aug 2009, 22:05 BST

Everyone (and their mama..lol) will buy this game. I can't wait! :)

invmat

21. invmat Netherlands 01 Sep 2009, 18:28 BST

I'm also going to buy it.
And I heard there will be something called Demo-play for rookie gamers, it allows you to skip hard parts of the game.

Looks like a must-buy for me, unfortunately.

27. Roebuck United States 01 Oct 2009, 15:43 BST

Must have!

Cally

28. Cally United States 05 Oct 2009, 18:29 BST

Aw this looks just great. :D

The level design already looks good, and partly because they did something very, very smart: Pulled the point of view way out from the character so more can go on in the screen and the stage and it doesn't feel cramped. Cool!

mysteriousbloke

29. mysteriousbloke United Kingdom 11 Oct 2009, 20:05 BST

can't wait for this. should be great larfs.

redflicky

30. redflicky United Kingdom 15 Oct 2009, 14:36 BST

This game has to be alot harder.

LEGEND MARIOID

31. LEGEND MARIOID United Kingdom 24 Oct 2009, 21:05 BST

96% in ONM. A whole new game, not an enhanced version of the DS game. Essential by the sounds of it.

IGN gave it a 8.9, MW2 a 9.5.
I am kinda pissed off.

wow... This game is FUN!!!!

edofthe209

46. edofthe209 United States 17 Nov 2009, 06:02 GMT

This game is a blast, but so blasted hard! I love it! It's a killer platformer straight out of the golden age. It takes the best parts of everything from the Mario series (and maybe a little bit from Chip and Dale's Rescue Rangers for NES), adds some tweaks and twists, and just makes for one hell of a great time. Still have yet to try it with 4 player maddness, but 2 players is an incredible challenge.

47. Hipeoplessssss United States 19 Nov 2009, 15:13 GMT

i beat it already lol

48. Badknux United States 20 Nov 2009, 05:10 GMT

I've got New Super Mario Bros. for the DS, but I'll probably cave and get this eventually.
