Good but not quite....

This game is basically a direct port of the N64 game except they make a few additions.They add in 30 new stars. Sounds good right? Well really it's not, it's just repetative extra 30 stars. You have to collect a few silver keys and a star will appear. We already had the red coins. The other thing is just doing something and then running to get a star that's in a cage before time runs out. The extra 30 stars are very cheasy and couldn't have taken nintendo to much time. The other thing is that the controlls are abosolutly horible. Almost everyone used the directional pad and not the touch screen. That would have been fine if they laid a few things out differently. They make you hold down the X button to run and after doing that for a minute or 2, it can begin to really hurt your hands. I also remember that there were akward controlls to be long jumping. That's all I got to say for the bad, now here's the good. The graphics are falt out amazing, simple as that. The minigames that nintendo has added in are very addictive. They were a great thing to add in.

Overall, this game is basically a port of the original game, I'd say don't judge the original off of this but it's your choice, do whatever.
