| Kenology said: My only gripes about this game: 1). Still no gaddamn indication of which levels have secret exits. I found a handful of them just screwing around (how else would one find them?) but it would be nice to know which levels I need to be more thorough in. It'll save me from dummy missions (i.e. looking for a hidden exit that ain't there). 2). We don't get to keep a stock item at the top of the screen. I miss that feature. Other than those two minor annoyances, this game is actually brilliant. It's been a long time since I had this much fun in a 2D Mario game. Nintendo nailed it with this one. 9.5/10 |
Completely agree with your points and your overall score. One other thing I wish they'd bring back from SMW is the ability to throw shells/items upward. I miss that feature as I loved how they worked that mechanic into levels and the Bowser battle in SMW. Oh well, maybe next time.
