Welcome back, Mario!

User Rating: 8.9 | New Super Mario Bros. DS
I got to say, this is one of the greatest Mario games since Super Mario Bros. 3. New Super Mario Bros. combines 2D side scrolling gameplay with 3D moves and graphics. I wish I could play this for myself, but I don't have a DS. I wish I bought that instead of a PSP. The DS is rich with games. Anyway, back to the review. The controls are real awesome. The DS unfortanally doesn't have the A button on the bottom, though. The game has the power-ups of the original, plus some new ones. One includes a giant mushroom, which turns Mario Super Big. The multiplayer mode is real great, too. Mario and Luigi go against each other in a sibling rivalry. Although it only has Ad Hoc (No Nintendo Wi Fi connection), The game is great. There are also minigames recycled from Super Mario 64 DS. I don't pay attention to those. If you want retro action with remixed fun, I highly recommend playing New Super Mario Bros. You won't be dissapointed.
