It's definitely not a bad game per se, just an uninspired one.

I hate to say but this will be the first 2D Mario console game in my life that I probably won't finish in my life (starting with the NES Super Mario Bros.).

I did beat NSMB2 but that was pushing it a bit, and the reward at the end of the game for collecting coins was fairly lame.

But NSMBU ... it's not that it's a bad game (it might be the best of the NSMB series) ... it's just I've pretty much had it with the NSMB formula. I got to the amazon/jungle world and basically quit. I have had no motivation to revisit the game even during this long drought.

I thought maybe when New Super Luigi U came out, I'd get back into it, but I've found myself with little interest in wanting to download it so far.

I will be getting Mario 3D World, but as far as 2D Marios go ... the next one better shake things up.
