New Super Mario Bros.

NSMB stays true to its roots, while adding new gameplay twists and great graphics to create a very compelling classic!!!

My expectations for NSMB weren't that high.. I expected it be like all the other ones.. Nothing that special/different.(Dont get me wrong, I loves the other ones.) But I was pleasantly surprised with NSMB. Its Main Mode (Mario Game) is probably the best of all the other Mario bros. The level designs are brilliant and refreshing. YOU will spend so much time playing this game. It takes a little while to get used to the new controls though. I literally can not keep my hands off this game. Not to mention how great the multiplayer is for Mario vs. Luigi. VS. Minigame mode is a bit disapointing because of the use of Super Mario 64 minigames. (There are about 5 new minigames.)

-Positives-

-Great gameplay and graphics
- Fun Multiplayer MOdes
- Tons of replayability
-Lives up to its name

-Negetives-

-rehashed minigames
- Horribe Bare Storyline
