NSMB2 redeemed, it's not a sales flop like suggested a few weeks ago. It has now definitely sold through its initial shipment.

In related news, it's not a flop as a game either. After beating the game twice I'll give it my personal seal of approval.

Better than the first?

Easily better than NSMB on the DS. Here's a list of improvements, aside from graphics and sound which are obvious anyway:

 

  1. Blue Koopa Shell power-up replaced by the Raccoon Leaf. A fantastic trade. I must be the only one, but I love the blue shell - so bad it's good. I was playing it last week and never realized before that you swin faster with it! And that you can stun Bowser Jr too.
  2. Mini Mushrooms not as often required to access star coins and secret exits. Also, much easier to collect from Mushroom Houses on the World Map. Yeah, that sucked before. I lost count the number of times I finished 1-4 to get a mini-mushroom. Nothing against using it, but they should be included in the stage there's a secret for it. Even if very hidden.
  3. No stupid branches that force you to defeat bosses as Mini Mario. Ah, I like this a lot. Well, it's okay if they don't force it, I can do it anyway.
  4. Higher difficulty. Not as high as in NSMB Wii, but still. Good, no complaints here.
  5. More and better gimmicks in the various levels. I knew it. That's what should be reviewed. But no... let's review the grass...

 


Nice to hear! But I added a few annotations.
