[Wii] New Super Mario Bros Wii

I know some of us got this early and those who didn't(such as myself) got it today. I've played through the first world at this point. So far I'm having quite a bit of fun. It also brings back memories. Been awhile since I've played a 2D Mario on a system other than a portable. Haven't tried multiplayer yet. Hopefully next time the crew shows up I can try it out. See how far I'm in the game at that point too.

It's great having the Koopalings back. I missed beating the shit out of Bowser's entire family.

So how about everyone else. Is it living up to expectations? Or are you in a state of dissapointment?

Jam it back in, in the dark.

Half way through world 3. World 3 is the first world that I finally started dying. Then again I've always sucked at those levels where you have to jump precisely while on a surface where you slide. Stupid ice. And at this point I have to say, definatley worth buying even though I'm not even half way yet.

There's nowhere I can't reach.

I'm finding world 4 much easier than world 3. Like I said, I hate ice levels. I died a fair number of times in world 3. I'm rolling in lives in world 4. Made up the lost ones from World 3 and then some.

And it's very good as single player. Not lacking at all. It is classic Mario though with just some new level designs and one or two new powers(well more like variants of old powers) so if you're expecting radical changes you're going to be dissapointed.

This thing is sticky, and I don't like it. I don't appreciate it.

So far I'm finding it pretty easy. World 6 really loaded me up on lives with those bullet bill rescue toad levels(I was getting between 2 and 4 free lives every time I saved Toad on them). Looks like World 3 remains my hardest area.

Although I haven't been going after all the star coins. So I'll have to go back eventually to get them all. Hopefully like New Super Mario Bros DS it'll let you save anywhere after beating the game.

Most amazing jew boots

I just beat Ludwig at the halfway fortress in world 7. So far in all honesty other than World 3 I still haven't found it that difficult. Some worlds look like they'd be difficult in theory(one of the world 7 levels sure looked scary with all the rotating platforms) but in practice they aren't too bad. Although it will take some real skill to get all the star coins though. Some of them are in hard to reach spots that I didn't even try for.

I was speaking idiomatically.
