Well, the gameplay, like in pretty much every mainline 2D Mario game, is above reproach. If you die, it's your own damn fault. (Or your friend's fault, but the point is that the game can't be blamed.) Co-op is fun, regardless of the amount of players. Nothing to complain about on the level design side, and the Penguin and Propeller suits are cool.
Speaking of power-ups, however, I'm still waiting for a 2D Mario, that actually has more power-ups than *Mario 3, Nintendo. Just thought I'd let you know.
(*A game made in the FREAKING '80s)
The worlds also feel stale, despite the stellar level design. Ooh, a desert level! An ice level! A lava level! Look out, kids! It's Nintendo and their tidal wave of ingenuity!
And the music is pretty weak. Let's compare the music of NSMBW to that of Super Mario Galaxy, shall we?
It's not hard to tell which one Nintendo would rather see succeed...
All in all, it has more than it's fair share of problems, but I'm still enough of a prostitute for 2D side-scrollers to give New Super Mario Bros. Wii an...
