The first 2D Mario platformer for a home console in over 15 years. Though it has single-player, it focuses heavily on cooperative multiplayer, allowing up to 4 players to play simultaneously. This game also premiered Nintendo's Super Guide hint system.
I was very sceptical of this game, because it looked like New Super Mario Bros. (DS) which was a game I was utterly disappointed by. It was short, easy and so dumbed down that I would've prefered a 1: 1 port of Super Mario Bros. 3. The Wii one looks a lot more akin to Super Mario World though, so I'm hopeful it'll offer a bit more depth and maybe will have new power ups that don't come at the expense of everything else this time. Not sold on the multiplayer though, looks like it'll be really frustrating to do anything with a lot of dudes bumping around you all the time.
I know I am late to the party but this game looks like a blast from the past. I am so freaking excited about this game, I don't own a Wii but my friends who do will be seeing a lot more of me come this game's release :)

Yep, I love how he can eat and spit out other players xD
Excuse me if I don't spontaneously ejaculate upon hearing that Nintendo's biggest announcement for E3 is a Mario game following a 23-year-old formula practically to the letter.

Agreed! Nintendo should cook some new franchises because this one is starting to look overused...
