Super Mario Bros. Wonder

Mario wonder is a WONDERFUL blend of classic mario and kirby powerups, along with a great mash up of unpredictabile inventive level designs each time you take a Wonder Flower.. it brought me back the joy of "Mario Galaxy" in a refreshing 2D style! I almost 10/10 this if it wasn’t for the small package of content it has delivered of rougly 10 hours? I NEED MORE! and the meh writing.. Regardless, it was a spectacular experience throughout, and is amongst the very best mario games ever!

I will try to resist making the wonderful pun, but really there is no other way to describe Mario Wonder. Super Mario Bros Wonder demonstrates a new era of 2D Mario, the same way New Super Mario Bros (NSMB) on the Nintendo DS did back in 2006. As NSMB defined the look and feel of the next 15 years of 2D Mario, Mario Wonder reinvents everything you knew about 2D Mario. The artstyle and models are less of a lifeless "3D" and have more of a layered 2D look. The animations are super expressive, and unlike the NSMB series, there is so much personality oozing out of the characters and the world. No longer is the case of critizing 2D Mario for feeling stale. However the look is not the biggest change Mario Wonder makes. The gameplay itself is an evolution of 2D Mario the same way Mario Bros 3/World was an evolution of the original. The evolution that we have been wanting 2D Mario to have for a very long time. You have your new power ups, which is expected of every Mario game... However the big change is the addition of the wonder flower. This one addition changes every single level to a 3D Mario mission (aka Mario 64, Odyssey) by needing to find the flower by doing specific. However that is not all, once you find the flower the entire dynamic of the level changes and turns the standard platforming mechics on it's head. Sometimes, the level will turn into a musical, other times Mario will change form like becoming a Goomba. The kicker is, the changes made by the wonder flower is different for every single level. This one mechanic keeps the whole game feeling fresh from beginning to end to levels which has never been seen in a platformer. The only gripes which I should mention is that the boss fights are some of the weakest in a Mario game. It's kind of crazy considering the level of creativity that went into each stage, but none of that went into the bossfights. The other thing is the game is a little on the easy side and a bit short for 2D Mario standards. While playing Mario Wonder, I kept thinking about how there are a lot of similarities to Rayman Origins/Legends. This game was clearly inspired by it. There is so much creativity and care put into Mario Wonder, this is honestly one of their best Mario games. I only hope this new formula of innovation continues with the future 2D Marios as there is still so much potential here.

THE WONDERFUL MASTAPEECE

peak 2D mario game. No doubt about it!

I watched a fat old man cry because they got to partner with Nintendo on a strategy game, now look at ya... It is wonky delayed rhythm game in the style of Rayman Legends, there is no deviation that would make coop even good and your often squashed up against the screen waiting for random events. It is a poor aspect ratio of predetermined fun. In a few years an ai will be able to modify Mario Maker 2 and make a more captivating engaging game.

It's been a while since I've played a new 2D Mario and I was very pleasantly surprised by how fun it was. I really appreciated how much it changed up the formula by adding a wide variety of power-ups to the game. It made running through each world exciting and engaging. What's more is that the platforming itself feels really sharp--never once while playing did I ever feel like the game's mechanics are what caused me to fail. That being said, I wish the game was longer, especially because it was a bit too easy. I feel like I didn't really get to spend enough time with each power up or world. And maybe it was just me, but the game's soundtrack isn't as catchy or memorable as with previous entries. Even still. Wonder was a fun entry to the series and I really look forward to where it goes from here.

Easily one of the best 2D platformers from Nintendo in a while, which is saying something. It's super creative in terms of level design, enemies, and power-ups. The only problem is the repetitive boss fights with Bowser Jr. Yoshi's Island still had the best boss fights among the 2D series and I'm disappointed we didn't get that level of quality. Besides, that the game is perfect. The game also offers a decent challenge as well.

Really food return for the 2d Mario games. Wonder seeds keeps every level fairly fresh. The special world is a real challenge but easily worth the effort to beat. Only real complaint I had was that the badge system wasn't used to its full extent. They really could have opened up the game and aren't something super crucial in this one unfortunately. But overall just a really chill 20+ hours

I want to play

Xnee to edge at

For me it’s the best Mario. I only had as console a switch keep that in mind

Just a fun new adventure definitely went out of its normal platformer ways but it works everything from the graphics to the soundtrack is phenomal. Hoping to continue soon.

It's a best game I ever played

It's a big day

Every level feels more creative than the last. Surely this is the pinnacle of 2D Mario games; it manages to inject the fun and wonder (ha) of the 3D entries like Galaxy and Odyssey into quick, sharp bursts. A must-have for anybody with a Switch, really.
