New Super Mario Bros. Wonder Review
Just a short review, not even structured or anything. I might flesh it out in the future.
So, I played SMBW with a couple online friends and… it's alright. It's a good game. If you like Mario, then you will like this game, too. Hear me out though. What Nintendo did with Mario Wonder is THE BARE MINIMUM! Yes, you read that right! SMBW is everything New Super Mario Bros U on Wii U should have been, 10 years ago. Yes, the new graphics certainly look wonderful, but all these new expressions and animations should have been here a long time ago, to be honest. It's good that they changed up the graphics a bit, but I kinda hoped for something like Wario Land: Shake It!!, where it's 2D drawn graphics. Instead we get the New Super Mario Bros. style again, although with much-needed improvements. The Wonder Seed mechanic is pretty good, but also gets a little tiring after a while. There is one in literally every level, which kinda makes this whole thing not special anymore. What I find baffling is the level design. Without the Wonder Seeds which trip up everything, the level design is as bland, simple and generic as it can get. I can't really remember a single level that stood out. In that regard, it is actually much worse than even New Super Mario Bros.!! Too much emphasis on the Wonder Seeds, instead of making interesting levels. Heck, I even consider the talking flowers the BEST new introduction instead of the Wonder Seeds. It's all style and no substance, like the animated Mario movie. Mario's new voice actor (yes, quite surprisingly, Charles Martinet has been replaced) needs to do a little more work on his Mario impression. However, if you aren't a hardcore Mario fan like me, you will likely not notice a difference in Mario's voice. Yoshi and Nabbit are inexplicably locked behind "easy mode" as they take no damage (although this hasn't been bothering me too much). Still no playable Wario and Waluigi. The boss battles are very disappointing (it's just Bowser and Bowser Jr. all over again… how about we bring back Tatanga or some other villain who's not just Bowser)? I kinda wished for a lot more levels. There's enough content to justify your purchase, but… you know… a couple more levels or one or two more worlds wouldn't have hurt. There's no time limit anymore, so you have plenty of time to explore the levels, although as I've already mentioned, there isn't a lot to explore due to their basic design. The HUD has been reduced accordingly. I kinda wished the big purple flower coins would have been shown, as I have to pause the game in order to look if I missed any. Sadly there's no way to adjust the sound. The talking flowers were a bit low on volume sometimes. In multiplayer, there is no collision between players anymore, which is a welcome change. What isn't a welcome change is the fact that the screen is focused only on one player (the one with a crown symbol above their head). That makes it difficult for the other players to catch up if they are behind. Unlike New Super Mario Bros., the screen does not zoom out anymore when the other players are further behind, so they get pushed out of the screen and turn into ghosts. Not really fun if the player with the crown rushes through the game, while the other players want to explore the levels further. The music is alright. Only two tracks really stood out for me, the rest is just fine background music. All in all, a step in the right direction, but Nintendo never goes all the way anymore, I feel. Everything in the Mario brand must be "safe" now for the Normies. This game is no different. It is fun, yes. But it also feels like it's lacking something. 7/10

"I hope you told your brother how much you loved him, because you're probably never gonna see him again."
"..."
"Was that too dark?"
"YES!"
"Sorry."
#mario movie#mario move spoilers#super mario bros movie#super mario bros#mario and luigi#super mario bros movie spoilers#cherrysip edits#i was gonna make a different gifset today but then i found that new trailer and WELL HERE WE ARE lol#TOAD SERIOUSLY CAN YOU READ THE ROOM HERE???????????#first time in the town was kinda funny second time was genuinely a bit upsetting to the point that i gasped when i heard the dialogue#mario would prefer you Do Not Say Things Like That!!!!!!!#he is no way shape or form emotionally prepared to grapple with the idea of his brother being dead or never being able to find him#that would end him. that would destroy him. he would truly not know how to go on. so that is just firmly Not a Possibility in his brain#(and now i made myself REALLY sad thinking about mario remembering this conversation a little later and wondering#when WAS the last time he told luigi he loved him????? he can't remember. he loves his brother more than anything and anyone#but he hasn't said it outloud in so long and the realization of that is extremely painful. there's some more angst for you!!!)#anyway this is just a compilation of all the significant scenes where mario and luigi are actually together we've seen so far and I CRY#also the brand-new one of them running through town!!! omg it's perfect#with mario doing unnecessary parkour and luigi just diligently jogging along on the outside and avoiding the mess#the characterization even in the tiniest moments like this is truly CHEF'S KISS#will be working on more gifsets because my brain just needs to stare at all this until the movie comes out lololol

Goodbye Charles, all of us cannot thank you enough for providing such an iconic part of our childhoods. I'm happy to hear you're still working with Nintendo, you deserve the best retirement ever. Thank you, Charles Martinet.
#27 years as mario... thats incredible#whoever is doing the new voice of mario (see super mario bros wonder) is doing a really good job (if that isnt charles)#for context charles martinet the voice of mario is stepping down
