Triple post, but here's my take on it, from the first level to level 2-4 or so.
The controls are old-school all the way. I got right into it and it felt a lot like the NES games. I even caught myself jumping back for a mushroom over a brick without thinking about it. It feels new but in an old sort of way. There are way too many 1-ups in the game, much like their last few Mario games, but that's no real bad thing. It just means you'll never see a game over screen. It feels to me like a cross between all the games from Mario 1 to Mario World. Invincibility is AWESOME, but I've only encountered it twice. Once from one of the first worlds and again from a mushroom house, which I used to beat the Koopa Kid in one butt pound. The one bad thing I came across was saving. You can only save when you beat a castle (there are two in each world like Mario 3) or when you open up a closed path. You can't save at any other time, and that's a fairly big downfall. Besides that, though, I love the game. It makes Mario feel new all over again. |

Yeah, lack of saving kinda blows on a portable title./

When they ported SMW to the GBA, it allowed you save at will, unlike the SNES version. Too bad they didn't do that this time around. But it sounds great.
I'm gonna pick it up today hopefully.

If you have Gameboy/GBC games that you want to keep and don't have a GB/GBC, don't because the DS doesn't play those.

I picked it up this afternoon. I played until I beat the second world. Super fun happy point form:
* First thing I did when I started the game was go to jump on the Goomba... Only I jumped too early so the Goomba ran into me and I died. That's right, the very first thing I did in the game was die... Immediately. * I'm not used to playing a Mario platformer on my DS, but this game is easy to get into... I'm just working on getting the feel of it. * I'm used to the side scrolling Mario games being more open. This game has more walls and blocks. It's not really a bad thing though. * The huge mushroom is awesome. Enough said. * graphics are good. * Wall jumps are a sweet way to save from falling down a pit. * There are a lot of ways to get 1ups. * The castles feel like a perfect mix between Super Mario 3 and Super Mario World. * Running through everything with the super huge mushroom is awesome. * There are really fun mini games. * The music is only ok. It could be a lot better, but it's not bad. Fine for a Mario game. * So far my only real complaint is that you can't play one player as Luigi. Oh, and Toad should be in this game A LOT. More Toad for me, please. * It would be neat if once you beat the game you could play the game as Luigi, Toad, Princess, and even a goomba or koopa troopa. It'd be awesome throwing fireballs as a goomba. |

Okay, so DS plays GBA games but not GB/GBC, right? If so, then I'm all set. I only have GBA and DS games coming to me.

Chrono Trigger Pokemon Red/Blue Donkey Kong Country 2 is my personal favourite 2D sidescroller of all time... imo those games are perfect, and there are others, this is just off the top of my head |

Oh, you can play as Luigi. All you do is hold L + R and press A when you chose your file.

I didn't read later posts. Boo hoo. What's with the need to find any reason to dig at me of late? Seriously, you're so anal about finding any possible error or wrongdoing or possible slight and jump over it. It gets boring, and you seriously can't be this retarded as to need to pull this. |

Naw. Never mind answering that last question. I'm just gonna put you on ignore now.
EDIT: Though I do like the irony that, in this very thread, I had already offered up an answer to your question...I mean, busting my balls over this when someone had already stated it...Almost a week ago...TWO WHOLE POSTS above you asking the question, someone had already answered you.

LOL. Yeah. Because your several recent attacks on me were "calling 'em like you see 'em."
This sudden bout of honesty, which only seems to target me... ![]() I'm not calling you on a conspiracy...Just on the actual comments you've made. You've tried so hard to take shots over the last couple of days, I thought recognition was what your little ego would want.

It only seems like a burst of 'honesty' KK. I haven't been on in months. And no, I don't have to try that hard to point out you making an ass/hypocrite out of yourself.

It's not really psychology, it's sarcasm.
You know, saying the opposite of what one means in a berating fashion? But that's okay, princess. The Psychology card was brtl |

I am so sorley tempted to get this game, but whenever I look for info about it, I always hear stuff like 'too short' 'too easy' 'Completed it in about an hour' If it is too short or easy or whatever, then I am not getting it.
How is it for length? |
