The game is a nostalgic masterpiece that is more than cabable of standing on its own two feet. Burrowing aspects of the past mario games, and encasing a little bit of its own. It has all the basic mario themes and levels, as well as some new fresh and original designs.

The enemy's are all to be expected, the platforming is superb and the overall mood and fun is the shining point of this game, and on your DS it will run smoothly and play great.

Gameplay - 10
Mario's formula is legendary for reason, and the tweaks and combination of past ideas all add to the experience. The replay value is also very high, searching for secrets and simply replaying and enjoying the levels

Graphics - 9
Its looks pretty good, its simple but delivers. It runs great and the environments are all vibrant and beautiful.

Sound - 10
Partly old tracks, and partly new tracks. Both sound great. And the sound effects are solid.

Overall - 9.6
A classic from start to finish, its main flaw is its underwhelming difficulty. It may leave you feeling somewhat angry or disappointed. But it grows on your incredibly quick and is a solid buy without a doubt.
