I'm going to preface this by saying it's likely the best one -ever. It takes the best of super Mario 3, super Mario world, Mario 64, and galaxy, mashes them together and creates a better experience.
I remember how much fun I had when I first played super Mario 3 and super Mario world. I remember how cool I thought Mario 64 was. I remember galaxy coming out and not being thrilled by it but playing through it to see what the fuss was about. I feel like im 10 again I'm barely to world 3 because I'm going back and playing levels 2-3 times. Some for obstacles some because they're so fukking fun and some of the levels are crazy in the way they are designed . There are new elements that haven't been done in these games or simulated elsewhere and it's wild. It's incredibly fun to do something new in a video game and something I hope to see more of as I progress through the game.
I like new super Mario bros wii and wiiu. Galaxy 1 and 2 were dope but also cumbersome in the fact that I didn't care to get all the stars and those 3 magic coins or whatever...i still to this day will load up Mario 64 and play through and get all 120 stars. chasing the red coins and shyt can be annoying but is worth the pay off in the end. This game has the same if not more value and as a gamer I'm vested in getting the stamps and 3 green stars in each level.
I'm gonna be honest watching videos and shyt I was like

a fukking suit? Man I wont even start a level without that bytch. Catsuit + playing as toad.....
There's like a mini game where you play as toad but can't jump and you have to turn the camera to navigate and solve the puzzle and get the stars I can forsee it getting mad difficult but it looks and plays so well it seems like something to fukk with after beating the game.
I'll likely add more as I play through. Anyone that has Wii-u definitely gamefly or buy straight up without renting.
For those with kids that remember getting nes or snes and popping in Mario 3 or sure Mario world. This Christmas is a chance to pay it forward, plus if you have an old wii the controls still work and this game supports like 5 player multi-player so that'll be fun too.
