Checkered flag? Or wreck on the Carpool lane.
I would say neither win or a fail, but a good solid fun game.
Understandably more toned down to easier with the casual players. The new tracks are really well designed with fun environments and multiple pathways. The online works surprisingly well seeing as Smash Bros online was a complete lag fest sloppy mess. The controls are still as solid as they ever were so there is no problem there.
Where I do fault the game is what I kind of gave it props to as well. The game has been toned down for the casual players, so fans of the series will probably see this more of a step back rather than a step forward. And like I said I understand why they did it, I just don't like it. Also the game ends and/or gets stale quite quickly. I found myself wanting to stop a few times and play some Double Dash instead. If there was no online, my review probably would have been a lot harsher. Finally for being such a big name franchise, the graphics looked kind of bland to me.
Like I said it is a solid fun game, and a fantastic pick up if you have kids.
