By my (and the reviewers') experience, you actually die more in multiplayer.Glefistus said:
I am over stating of coarse because I haz a puny ego, but still I found both sunshine and galaey annoying its not the pure mario adventure I dreamt about and have wanted done( RIGHT!!) since Mario 64 got it half right........CantFaketheFunk said:
The New Super Mario Brothers Wii is going back to it's roots among adding more stuff to it.
However, there's one thing I like to point out is the controls. The controls on NSMBW on Wiimote sideways feels a bit a pain in the butt and the classic game controller should fix that.
And yes, it's frustrating. Much to the Lost Levels.

The tilting platforms don't bother me, but the fact you have to move the controller to use the propeller thing dose. Feels so unnecessary.
I think we can all see that co-op is actually more difficult, also is specifically states that in the review. Also, "co op is for scrubs"? Really, did you really just say that? I don't suppose it could've possibly been put in there for I dont know...FUN?Glefistus said:
But yes OT: Maybe I'll force my mate to steal his wii back from his mother and buy this.
There's something I don't quite like about Mr. Dream's reviews, and I can't quite put my finger on it. Maybe it's because he goes on to ramble a bit (how does Mario and Sonic's rivalry 17 years ago really affect the current market and justify the $50 price tag now?) or how he shifts gears somewhat abruptly from paragraph to paragraph. Or how he waffles a bit, in this case he spends the first half of the review praising nostalgia factor, with new and fun additions but compared to Little Big Planet somewhat lacking or how it has "moments of genuine inspiration" and "novel additions" and "never feels phoned in, just familiar" but at the end implies that the series is not fresh and calls it "a $50 trip down memory lane" in a negative sense.
Sorry, I didn't mean to turn this into a mini-rant. I don't normally pay much attention to who writes the reviews, but this isn't the first time I've stopped midway to ask myself, "Who wrote this?" only to find out it's Mr. Dream.

You'll be waiting a long, long time then. New Super Mario Bros DS is still going at full price and it's over 3 and a half years old (!).Jon Etheridge said:

In the store, yes. On craigslist or a local game trading site, no. A lot of the times I will do a trade. I get a game I want and someone else gets a game they want and there's normally no cash involved. Sometimes someone will do a trade a newer game for an older game and they will ask for $10 or $20 depending on how new the game still is.Aura Guardian said:
But yeah, in stores like Gamestop the price will stay the same for a good while.
tbh New Super Mario Bros. for Nintendo DS was a real letdown. I'm still pretty skeptical about the Wii edition.
Ah, stop whining about the price, damn you! We Australians get gouged for $80-$100 on EVERY new game. I'd say WE'RE the ones who have something to complain about, thank you very much!
Considering that this is basically nothing more than a slightly spruced up console version of the New Super Mario Bros DS, and that the only real addition is the co-op, AND also considering the fact that I have no friends, I'll have to let this pass...
"(Except for Super Mario Bros. 2, of course - Nintendo would rather forget about that abomination.)"
YES! I say we officially rip the Mario gift wrap over the turd known as Doki Doki Panic and send it back to the abyss where it belongs. Just remember Nintendo, you can wrap a turd in whatever pretty wrapping paper you want, but it's still a turd.
