I agree with this con.  I wish they had used the original Toad and Princess Peach.

9.0/10

9.5/10

For all it's bad points, I still don't care since I had been waiting for a new 2D mario for about 6-7 years ( played SMB 1-4 and Yoshi's Island thanks to GBA ports )

1 day left to vote.

I have to disagree there.  I've spent over 100 hours online on MKWii and if it had no online features I wouldn't have spent much of those 100 plus hours on the single player.  I've entered every single one of the bi-monthly MKWii competitions and regularly check my time trial scores against those of others.  MKWii is one of the few examples of games that I actually play online.  If it had no online I would consider it less impressive and a step back in modes from MKDS.

NSMBWii is a different matter though.  While the option of online mutliplayer would've been nice (and I think it could've proved as a sort of killer app for Wii speak), I wouldn't have used it much at if all.  Playing against my cousin who lives in Cambridge with wii speak would be fun, but would at the same time be lacking something that the local co-op has.  This whole deal has been vastly overrated.

Every addition  added can be good thing if done right. Hell, sometimes it doesn't even have to be done right. Alteast i would go "atleast there is online" but nope, nothing. No co-op, no nothing.

And i never said it wasn't a good 2d platformer, but anyone can see (atleast i can) that the game begs for online. If MKWII had no online, that would be horrondus. Oh and i can tell people what to buy and do whenever i want. Ill tell you right now, go buy inFAMOUS, there, and I would be damn proud to tell women what tampon brand they should use =p. I was simply putting my input in the thread because in my opinion there is no way in hell this game deserves a 10. Just like in some peoples opinion it does.

If i get to tell you to play infamous, then hell yah.

Jay, I wouldn't take anyone that really said NSMB Wii is just NSMB with different powers seriously, you're in the majority here obviously.  It's like the people that literally thought NSMB Wii was a remake of the DS game.  NSMB Wii is completely different other than the character you use, level design and the like, it's also a lot harder than the DS game. 

Basically you're right on the money with your original comment.

seriously I haven't touched a 2D Mario in years and I found it to be really easy.

I pretty much ran through every level and only lost very few lives.

A game can't ever possibly be perfect in the sense that "nothing could make it better". That's obviously not what a 10 score mean.

Besides, the local co-op here (and to me specially 2 player) schools any co-op out there. It's amazing. What it boils down to is that I, as well as millions of people, simply had the most sheer, pure fun in a game this generation with it. If that doesn't deserve a few tens I have no idea what does.

And this fun you have in the local co-op (which obviously depends on who you're playing) would clearly (to me as well as to many of the people given high scores here, I assume) not translate completly, or anywhere near that, online.

Sure, it's an extra option, the game would be "better". But so would if it had an extra world. I'd gladly take and extra world over online here. Hell, it could have four times as many levels and it'd play them all with a smile. Should the game not get 10s because it doesn't?

Sure... ¬¬

Anyway, a game has to be good when one of it's most mentioned faults has zero effect on gameplay and enjoyinment of it.

Sry, double-post.
