Review Approach:

This is my first review, hope you'll like it!
Today I am reviewing New Super Mario Bros. Wii, a game for the Wii. Duh.
New Super Mario Bros. Wii is the sequel to the 2006 DS game New Super Mario Bros. This game added many new features, the most notable of which is the co-op multiplayer, which is a hell of a good time in my opinion. This game, as always, has excellent level design, however some of the newer power-ups leave something to be desired. I would have wished for more tactile control on the propeller power up. Also the Penguin power up's sliding move is quite slippery and not as controllable as the regular slide move. I really enjoyed the other modes in the game, Coin Battle is among my favorite mini games in any game, not just this one. Oh, and for the post game, there is a secret World 9, and you can unlock levels by collecting all the Star Coins in a specific world. And if you get stuck on a certain level, Luigi will beat it for you! Awesome!

Verdict

What I Liked ...
  • That Luigi "Super Guide" mode.
  • The levels.
  • The replayability.
  • The minigames.
  • Co-op mode.
What I Didn't Like ...
  • Some power ups.
  • The unnecessary motion controls.

Gameplay
This is a Mario game, so it must have extremely solid, well crafted gameplay. And it does.
9
Presentation
The presentation is extremely good, it even beats some of the newer side scrolling Mario games too.
8
Lasting Appeal
This is one of the games that people remember the Wii for, but not one of the ones they usually talk about when they discuss it.

Overall

This is a game I highly recommend for the Wii. You should play it if you haven't already.

I think this is the most positive score for a new soup game that I've seen.
 
this game was included with the Wii Mini (red) if you bought one.

Overall not a bad game but compared to Galaxy it was kinda boring unless you really liked the multiplayer mode.

    i thought everybody knew cocktails are like 75% ice
  • Veho @ Veho:
    Yeah but not like this.
  • Veho @ Veho:
    It's not like they're complaining that their Slurpee is 99% ice or something, but if the cocktail calls for "shot of vodka, shot of vermouth, shot of gin, shot of Campari, three shots of juice, squirt of lemon" and ends up being a thimbleful of booze, that's a problem.
  • The Real Jdbye @ The Real Jdbye:
    the funny thing is cocktails in norway are only allowed to have 1 20ml shot of booze
  • The Real Jdbye @ The Real Jdbye:
    so..... yeah
  • The Real Jdbye @ The Real Jdbye:
    we're used to only having a thimbleful of booze
  • Veho @ Veho:
    Booo.
  • The Real Jdbye @ The Real Jdbye:
    same thing if you want whisky on the rocks or something, you can't get a double
  • The Real Jdbye @ The Real Jdbye:
    but you could buy as many shots of whisky (or anything else) as you want and ask for a glass of ice and pour them in
  • The Real Jdbye @ The Real Jdbye:
    it's dumb
  • Veho @ Veho:
    Maybe.
  • Veho @ Veho:
    There was a comparison of the number of Ibuprofen poisonings before and after they limited the maximum dosage per box or per pill (i'll look that up). No limit on the number of boxes you can still buy as many as you want, so people argued it was pointless.
  • Veho @ Veho:
    But the number of (accidental) poisonings dropped because drinking an entire package of ibuprofen pills went from "I need a new liver" to "I need a new box of Ibuprofen".
  • Veho @ Veho:
    Here we have ketoprofen that used to be prescription-only because of the risk of toxic dosages, but then they halved the dose per pill and sell them in bottles of six pills apiece instead of twenty and it doesn't need a prescription any more. Yes you can buy more than one bottle but people simply don't.
  • Psionic Roshambo @ Psionic Roshambo:
    Usually accidentally overdose of ibuprofen here is from people taking like cold medicine then ibuprofen for a headache and the combination is over what they need
