fun game, but the most also the most frustrating mario game i've played. Some of the levels were really unforgiving, like taking forever to climb to a top and you make a wrong jump and you are basically back at the beginning of the level.
Especially annoying if you got into one of those awesome retro "secret/bonus" levels with the a capella Mario Bros theme, and you didnt bring enough lives, because some of those levels were hidden so far away that it took forever to get to them.
It's not a bad game by any means, but I think now, looking back, it is easily the most forgettable of all the Mario platformers 2d or 3d, on console or handheld.
