Not bad reviews, (by the way, didn't we have a thread for WiiU game reviews?)

Oh, and

Mario-http://www.destructoid.com/review-new-super-mario-bros-u-238434.phtml

"New Super Mario Bros. U is a great little platformer that kicks off the Wii U launch with a bang. Players know exactly what they're getting with this one -- an entertaining and incomplex bit of gaming that provides challenge and smirks in equal measure. While certainly a "safe" game to launch with, it is by no means unremarkable and the only people who would fail to have fun are those with a fundamental aversion to Mario or platformers in general. Literally everybody else would find it incredibly difficult to dislike this one ... even if some of those latter stages will make them temporarily despise it.

Because nobody likes lava levels. Nobody. "

I do like lava levels. The ones I don't like are the ice ones.

Lava levels are great! They separate the men from the boys.
