New Super Mario Bros Wii

2 lazy to look up any info. Looks pretty "sweet" though.

I'm "pretty excited"

Always been a Mario fan. Definitely getting this. It will probably take over my TV for a while when it's released.

Didn't want to say "take over my Wii" there. Didn't feel right.

I was excited for this until I found out it has no online play..

Holy hell, I am all over this.

Almost want to buy a Wii just for this.

:love:

still need to finish Mario Galaxy and open Legend of Zelda. lol

that just looks insane

Twilight Princess is one of the best looking games ever. I beat it and I'm trying to do everything and I started playing it again. It is so good.

Dunno about New Super Mario Bros Wii. Kinda need to "legitimately" beat the original one. Something 2 do this summer. For some reason I am not really excited about this.

I've had Twilight Princess for a year and it's still not opened. I wanted to beat Galaxy first. I'll get to it eventually

Kinda getting back into my Wii here lately. Playing some Wii Sports and preordered Resort. :(

So fucking excited.

<3

I'm not as excited about the game as I should be considering I'm a life long Nintendo fan and a big one at that. The game looks cool and I'll probably get it.
A rumour/spoiler about the game:

SPOILER: show

Drakul, your spoiler is true.

You can play as Toad and ride Yoshi. This game can't turn out bad.

it is easy, but I am having so much trouble with this level where you have to race this dude. Honestly, holding the WII Remote for any game is pretty difficult for me and that level, you have to move it around just right. I feel like my dad when I was like 14 and he couldn't understand the N64 Controller.

Looks sick. Definitely getting this.

Looks "amazing." Can't "wait."

Still need to beat SMG. It's not that it's hard, but for a while it was the only game I was playing, so when I disconnected my wii, I didn't hagve any reason to hook it back up.

I have SMG and its good, it just doesn't do it for me though. I like the side scrolling style of the originals, this seems more up my alley.

Looks like 3-4 players will get annoying after awhile imo.

No online mode, means a no buy for me.

Can't tell if the screen pushes you automatically or if it moves with the players. Hate it so much when the screen pushes you, or doesn't let you go back in the level. Seems to be elements from many Mario games in this so that's cool.

Yes and you have to go through each ring or whatever it is. I have not played in a couple months, but I think they were rings

oh Beach Bowl Galaxy was it? Where you had the shell underwater. Yeah that's annoying. I don't know

no, I think I did that one. You are in the sky for the one I am doing

MTV Multiplayer's Russ Frushtick got some hands-on time with this fall's New Super Mario Bros. Wii at a press event in New York City, and the verdict? It's hard. Like, really hard - Contra hard, even.

Quote:

You remember those ghost house levels from "Super Mario World" where you had to stay on the moving platform and it slowly chugged past ghosts and other obstacles? Ok, imagine that, but turn the platform into a slavering bone dragon and speed it up by about 3 times. Oh, and throw on three other homicidal friends who would rather jump on your head than let you make a perfectly timed jump. I went in expecting instant success, I left with zero lives and a lower sense of self worth.

This game's difficulty comes thanks to the inclusion of the "Super Guide" feature, which lets the computer (playing as Luigi) handle the trickier parts for gamers who can't make that one goddamn jump before resuming control - though apparently, the option won't unlock until you've tried and died a few times already.

Thanks to the "Super Guide," the developers no longer had to account for the lowest common denominator of player skill, but I'm not sure that that's actually true. If the game is truly this hard, aren't the less-skilled among us going to be playing the entire game on autopilot? I'd much rather something like Bayonetta's Automatic Mode, where the game handled the jumps and movement and left us to the combat.

Though, it is a Mario game. I guess the jumps are the combat.

Article here.

If it really is as hard as it's being claimed, then excellent. I'm all for this optional assistance for other players if it leaves the game as a challange for those that want it.
I've not seen any evidence of the game being hard, though. It so far looks about the same difficulty as NSMB on the DS.
