New Super Mario Bros.

One of the best games for the DS and a definate jolt on Mario's popularity.

User Rating: 9.5 | New Super Mario Bros. DS

Nowadays, Mario hasn't been the most popular Nintendo character to play with. His games, such as the constant partying he does with Mario Party, have become repetative and quite boring after a few times. Now, I'm not gonna go on about how Mario Party comes out every 4 months or so, or how Mario has become a bit too sports crazy lately, but New Super Mario Bros. has really given me a reason to play Mario again. This game brings the old school and combines it with newer and more updated graphics. It is a perfect game for the DS, taking advantage of the power the Nintedo DS has to offer, especially the touch-screen. This game is probably the best game on the DS since its release.
