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. Read More »
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.

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).

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.

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!

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.

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

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.

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.

too bad we cant play online, but hey, it looks awesome
an old game in a new form, and more stuff in it than SMB(nes)
its a SMB Wii, and i like old games, so this will make me happy
and maybe it has GC controller support , havent seen about that yet

05 Oct 2009, 18:29 BST
Aw this looks just great.
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!

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.

46. edofthe209
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.

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

59. kirgy
21 Dec 2009, 01:24 GMT
got the game and i now think multi player is a advantage and a obstacle
advantage: you could cooperate with your friends in some levels
obstacle: if they dont cooperate the level would be harder than it originally is
60. Gamerdad
21 Dec 2009, 03:00 GMT
WOW! I thought I would walk into W*LM*RT and say "NEW SUPER MARIO...." and I was shut down!!! SOLD OUT!!!! This was a week+ ago; the week prior to that there were 10 copies collecting dust!
61. Dragoon
21 Dec 2009, 22:43 GMT
@Gamerdad Exactly how it should be selling
62. Nintendogames1000

One thing to say...........DEFINITELY WORTH BUYING!!!!!
63. Dragoon
24 Dec 2009, 21:58 GMT
That metascore is FAAAAAAAAAR too low
64. Dragoon
26 Dec 2009, 01:30 GMT
The more I play this game, the more I love it. The graphics are gorgeous, the gameplay is at its best, and the music is excellent. Easily my new favorite game of all time

26 Dec 2009, 17:16 GMT
I also must comment on this page every day and put every reason why I love this game
1. The co-op mode is amazing
66. MarioFan1985
26 Dec 2009, 18:34 GMT
I have just received this game, though very good, but very similar to its DS counterpart, and it also has some Super Mario Bros. 3 elements in there as well, like battling some enemies that appear on the screen and toad house minigames that you play for items and 1-ups, plus the Kooplings from SMB 3 are also in this game, which they really need a major comeback (and I am not talking about M&L). But overall good, I recommend this to anybody.

28 Dec 2009, 05:01 GMT
YouTube people are just so jealous, they thought this might be coming to PS3, 360 or the DS. The title says "Wii", and that's only for the Wii.
They even wanted the title to be called "New Super Mario World" or "Super Mario Bros. 4" or even "Super Mario Foursome Adventures".
68. Nintendogames1000
28 Dec 2009, 05:02 GMT
I prefer the title "New Super Mario Bros. Wii".

I really don't like YouTube that much. All because they decided to use profanity filtering and trolling.

I made up a character to be the 3rd player character in the next 4 player Mario instead of a second nameless toad. Look at my profile picture and you will see the character i made named Antonio. Look at the picture and read the bio of him and tell me wahat you think.
74. Nintendogames1000
11 Jan 2010, 09:07 GMT
@wariothestario I agree. Some or few of the music in this game ain't as good as the older themes. But overall, great game. 10/10.

I wish they would add Yoshi in some levels, and you will be able to take him anywhere you want.

If you hate YouTube like me then stay away from it.

I agree with Dragoon. This game is a blast. Multiplayer can be frustrating because if you're jumping on each other and about to fall into a pit.

I can play this game for hours and hours. It will keep you entertained.

Possibly the best co-op game ever made.
82. Nintendogames1000
22 Jan 2010, 18:41 GMT
The reason why the title says "New" is because the graphics are well updated. People who thinks it isn't new probably its because there blind about the graphics.
For me, it is new.

Mario never gets boring, in 2D form.
EDIT: Okay, what I originally said, only when you have one of your friends to play. Single player's just not good enough...
85. Nintendogames1000
02 Mar 2010, 16:09 GMT
One word for this game: A.M.A.Z.I.N.G!
86. Nintendogames1000
17 Mar 2010, 22:28 GMT
And like I said before, the game is NOT that short and easy.
