The classic Mario 2D gameplay is there which made all the other Mario games so enjoyable so I can't complain about that.
But I am complaining about the controls and this being the first Wii game I've played with motion controls included that do not add to the game and infact take away a lot of it's enjoyment.
To me having to slant and rotate the Wii remote to move pivoted platforms does not feel natural or an intergrated part of the gameplay.
It's a bit like patting your head and rubbing your stomach, practise enough and you'll get it but, ultimately it's annoying and fucking pointless.
It seems a fairly easy game made more difficult because of the controls and I'm sure I'll complete it 100% but it will be under someone else's tree come Christmas eve.
I'll give it a 6/10
