My kids are gonna love this game. Another victory for Nintendo.

Isn't amazing how people can disappointed at a 9 out of 10.

oh i thought we only had 2 reviews so far a 7 and a 9 who gave out the 9.6 can i please have the link and 

@ woopah what do u mean by "for some reason metacritic isnt counting the NOM score" what is a NOM score?

@tio_coyote what do u mean u will rent the game why cause it didn't get 10 and only got a 9...wow i thought getting a 9 meant good i never knew people thought that if a game got 9 out of 10 it meant bad....

See this comic.

ONM gave it 96% in the last issue two weeks back. Or was it a week ago.

It's on their site somewhere.

that was funny but still how can u say i m a lil dissapointed when the game got a 9 i mean sseriously...thats like saying on a test when u get 99 out of 100 i am dissapointed...

I think many people assumed the single player was going to be crap/ease etc. because most of the demos had been focusing on the multi and people assumed Nintendo were "casualising" the game too much. 

Then they released a couple of vids a few weeks ago showing some more challenging parts and some expert speed runs and such which seemd to set many minds, including my own, at ease regarding the single player.

wii_master: I like the review but I would be disapointed with a 99/100 test

NOM is an old Nintendo magazine, Nintendo official Magazine, ONM is the modern one, which is Official Nintendo magazine a UK Nintendo mag, they gave New super mario bros wii 96%,  I actually posted a thread about it if you search my recents thread carefully.
