Developers at Nintendo have dreamed of creating a simultaneous multiplayer Super Mario Bros. game for decades. The Wii console finally makes that dream come true for everyone with New Super Mario Bros. Wii. Supporting 2-4 players in side-scrolling co-op and competitive platforming action, and featuring a mix of fan favorites and new characters, new powerups and various input options via the Wii Remote, it is destined to become an instant classic in one of the most beloved game franchises of all-time.

New Super Mario Bros. Wii, like all the previous releases in the Super Mario Bros. franchise is a side-scrolling platforming game where players collect coins as they attempt to make their way through progressively more difficult game levels using their ability to time jumps over obstacles and avoid a slew of enemies. But although the game contain several well-deserved nods to previous games in the series in the form of iconic characters like Mario, Luigi and two Toads, as well as familiar enemies, sound effects and levels, it is not simply another trip down Mario Bros. memory lane. Taking advantage of the flexibility and power of the Wii and Wii Remote, New Super Mario Bros. Wii manages to preserve the retro experience that fans love about the series, while adding new game features. Notable additions among these include, expansive play levels and new powerups and characters, but by far the most important, and in fact game-defining new feature is simultaneous multiplayer. A Franchise First: Simultaneous Multiplayer
Since the very first Super Mario Bros. game took the world by storm in the late 1980s gamers anxious to get into the action have patiently and impatiently waited their turn as the infamous 'player 2.' Those days are no more. In New Super Mario Bros. Wii players can now navigate the side-scrolling worlds alone as before or invite up to three others to join them at the same time, on the same level, at any point in the game for competitive and cooperative multiplayer fun. With the multiplayer mode, the newest installment of the most popular video game franchise is designed to bring yet another type of family entertainment into living rooms and engage groups of friends in fast-paced Super Mario Bros. fun. Controller Choices Via the Wii Remote
In another nod to the series' Nintendo Entertainment System (NES) roots, the Wii Remote controller used with New Super Mario Bros. Wii is held sideways, allowing for easy, classic inputs using the D-pad to direct playable characters, the 1 button to jump and 2 button to spit out projectiles like snowballs and fireballs. In addition, players can access powerups with their choice of either the push of a button, or by shaking the Wii remote, again demonstrating the perfect merging of classic gameplay and modern game design which is New Super Mario Bros. Wii. Key Game Features - New Super Mario Bros. Wii offers a combination of cooperation and competition. Players can pick each other up to save them from danger or toss them into it.
- Supports 2-4 players in multiplayer mode.
- Mario, Luigi and two Toads are all playable characters, while many others from the Mushroom Kingdom make appearances throughout the game. Players can even ride different Yoshi characters and use their tongues to swallow enemies – or their fellow players.
- In some areas, players use the motion abilities of the Wii Remote controller. The first player to reach a seesaw might make it tilt to help his or her character reach a higher platform – and then tilt it incorrectly just to mess with other players.
- New items include the propeller suit, which will shoot players high into the sky with just a shake of the Wii Remote and Mario’s new ability to transform into Penguin Mario.
- At the end of each stage during the simultaneous multiplayer mode, players are ranked based on their score, the coins collected and the number of enemies defeated.

 best mario game i played! July 29, 2010
jonathan alvarado
It came to me in a perfect condition played with it the same day I got it and its a great great game.love how you can play with 4 people,its just a party game.I recomend this game to everybody.
Great Game, but it is so fustrating sometimes! July 22, 2010
This game is fun, but once you get into newer worlds it gets a lot harder. I would not reccomend this to anybody who hasn't had 1+ Year(s) of experience with the Wii. The controls are diffrent. Insted of A it is two and insted of B it is 1. It is very confusing until you understand how to play! This game is also very, very fustrating. When I couldn't make a Castle or fortress in World Two with 5 lives, I added another player. Well, sort of. See I just let Player 2 remote just sit. That way If I loose I have another person. When you get 1 life for both just press A on the one you would like to have 1 life. Then, let the other one Die. It works pretty good. Although, I have gotten up to 99 continues. When I get more than that it stays at 99. I'll never give up with this game!
 After the Price Drop It's A Steal July 21, 2010
D
The Skinny:
+ New low price, practically underpriced at less an $40
+ Excellent graphics for a Wii game. Bright and colorfull, with a hefty dose of imagination, New Super Mario Bros. Wii provides a visual feast you won't soon forget. It's this kind of attention to detail and imagination that has made the series so popular.
+ The game is a whole lot of fun. The levels and power-ups are creative and inspired, and the 4-player option adds a new dimension(and serious replayability) to the game.
+ The game is simple enough to be easily approachable to new players, but deep, rewarding and challenging enough to engage a hardcore gamer. Truly, fun for all ages and walks of life. This is what a "family" game should be.
+ This is a classic style of game reimagined faithfully and effectively. There is a lot of nostalgia here for older gamers.
- No online play to speak of. What year is this again? Even just leaderboards would have been nice. Even if it were available though, this is a game best played with friends in person. Perhaps it isn't much of an omission.
The Verdict:
An instant classic. If you own a Wii, you should own this game. Games with this kind of craftsmanship are rare, and your lucky to find 1 game made with this level of quality in a year. With price drops on this title all over, now is the time to buy if you haven't already.
 terabal!!!!!!!!!!! July 21, 2010

this game seems like it was meant for people who have never played mario games it is no fun at all if you've played the smb1, smb2, and smw the game is sortaf like smb 3 one of the most anoying fetures in the game is the music, in it the music will say "what" up to 4 times in a row and when it does the items, mario/luigi/toad, all the enimes(pardon the spelling), even the bosses will DANCE! to the music. if i could i would not even give this 1 star
